Lemmy.world has somehow decided to become to extreme defenders of "copyright" and decided they will now delete posts that contain archive links in an absurd move that not even corporate websites like Reddit do. Archive links provide a service to provide access to an article long after it is deleted or changed.

They made this post and locked it immediately so no one can comment on how ridiculous it is and they're deleting threads about the decision...

The LW admins have requested that communities remove any posts that include the entire article or archive links to articles.

A short summary is allowed, but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. This includes links to sites that rehost copyrighted articles for paywall sites.

If your post is removed for a rule 1 violation you can edit the post and let the moderators know the copyrighted material has been removed.

Thanks All!

it happens only when sorting by Hot and it happens on a lot of posts regardless of what server you're on

using git pull and then running the ansible script to update break the lemmy server because it replaces the lemmy.hjson to have the old pictrs_url instead of

 pictrs: {
    url: "http://pictrs:8080/"
    # api_key: "API_KEY"
}

is there a way i can fix this so every update doesnt break the server requiring me to use the old helper script from .17.0 and manually update the lemmy.hjson?

The story and work of Gary Bowser is pretty badass and would make for an interesting ama and event on lemmy. Here’s a recent article on Gary Bowser https://torrentfreak.com/gary-bowser-how-a-1980s-hacker-became-nintendos-nemesis-decades-later-230702/

Reddit used to have something similar to health bar showing how much "gold" was bought to support the website. but later on out of greed they started using it as a paywall.

We can have a health bar that doesnt paywall ANY features and very transparently displays funds raised\used for a server. It can be used to display how much funds its being supported, how much server costs are, salaries for open source maintainers, mods, etc.

browsing through All has so much pro-fascist posts coming from lemmygrad that it drowns out all the other instances. I'm surprised they're even federated by default but we should have an option to block instances from All if lemmy is deadset on federating with them just because they are fascists with a red and yellow flag...

(before the Tankies start posting about how they aren't pro-fascism "Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy" which all describe the Z movement in Russia they gleefully support in multiple posts)

Whenever I want to find useful information on something i search the thing and add "reddit" to the end of my search. I would love to be able to do that with lemmy but currently it seems like nothing on lemmy gets picked up by google.

It's very difficult to want to keep coming back to lemmy with so many communities I'm not interested being on my homepage. I want to be able to discover new communities and posts but have the ability to block certain communities I never want to see
