This year's charity is the Netherlands' MIND (Dutch website), a Dutch charity that strives to prevent mental health issues and supports those who suffer from those.

Donations are currently broken on the site because of a PayPal issue - Prime subs are used for BSG themselves for future events.

I'll suggest Lemmesee as a word play on Let Me See and Lemmy. Some alternate possibilities regarding styling/spelling: LemmeSee, Lemmysee, LemmySee, LemmySy

Will definitely keep an eye out on the icon contest.

Don't get me wrong - I think an included battery that's rechargeable through USB is fantastic. Less customer inconvenience. But they should either go with a standard that's easily reproducible or go with regular rechargeable batteries.

If it was so easy to replace them, with each Li-Ion battery being different for every type of device.

Since I got those from Ikea, I just want devices to go back to those types of batteries instead of internal battery packs. Still got to appreciate the Xbox controllers sticking to that principle (for now).

Spotting Super Mario RPG in there, you might appreciate knowing some people actually recreated some songs with the original synths used by Yoko Shimomura herself.

I'm honestly a bigger fan of the classic DOOM I/II (199X) soundtracks. Despite being obvious parodies of existing rock/metal songs, they had a certain appeal. Especially when someone makes a very good cover.

I get why people like 2016's DOOM's more "metal" approach, but for me nothing beats an adrenaline-rush song when ripping and tearing those damned demons.

Super Mario Galaxy (1+2). Orchestrated music should be a must for main Nintendo games at this point, outside of Zelda (and the Pokémon anime, although that one's not strictly Nintendo or used in actual games, sadly).

Yeah, a Lemmy proxy is in the works. Should be able to convert Lemmy instances into a reddit-compatible format for clients.

Actually, your suggestion might indicate something important. The domain of the instance did change, with the old one giving 404's to get it off the list. Although Cameron did check the configs and didn't find anything wrong with them.

@Cameron@compuverse.uk Worth to cross-post to the admin channel, with the context of having switched over domains?

Thanks for responding either way. I asked the owner personally (off-platform) if he has noticed anything. And he says that the logs are just a gigantic mess with millions of lines. Only errors (as WARN messages) noticed by him, are like the following:

lemmy_1     |    0: lemmy_apub::activities::community::announce::receive
lemmy_1     |              at crates/apub/src/activities/community/announce.rs:149
lemmy_1     |    1: lemmy_server::root_span_builder::HTTP request
lemmy_1     |            with http.method=POST http.scheme="https" http.host=compuverse.uk http.target=/inbox otel.kind="server" request_id=<REDACTED> ttp.status_code=400 otel.status_code="OK"
lemmy_1     |              at src/root_span_builder.rs:16
lemmy_1     | LemmyError { message: Some("Cant receive page"), inner: Cant receive page, context: "SpanTrace" }```

The errors are very unclear, only saying it didn't receive the page while not mentioning where it came from etc, making it very hard to debug on our end.

I fully agree. While I do love the fact we've got a self-hostable federated reddit alternative that actually provides an API (kbin doesn't provide an API sadly), it's a damn shame this solution definitely has its problems at the moment. Though hopefully this'll change soon in the future.

I've definitely experienced some jank with Lemmy at the moment, but at least I've gotten used to Federation through Mastodon. I don't think you need to sub to a community per say to have it pull in changes from posts you responded on or the like. But you do need to subscribe if you want to have some instance's posts to the one you are currently on. (Though I could be sorely mistaken - I'm still figuring out Lemmy myself)

Starting today, I noticed some of my comments and posts aren't being visible to me when I am logged in. According to the RSS feed, logging out and checking it through an incognito tab, the posts are successfully posted on the instance and others', however.

Take this post for example: https://compuverse.uk/post/822

Here you can see I am able to view my post:

But when looking at my profile, said post is not visible:

Same applies to several recent comments I have made. Am I missing something, or is there something wrong with the instance at the moment? When logging off, I can see the post just fine on my own profile:

This is also the case when using the Android client (Jerboa), and when trying to hard-refresh pages etc.
