thank you, at least that clears things up.

that article is super confusing. the first paragraph reads:

Canada has reversed course after initially blocking a Russian anti-war activist from receiving citizenship because she had run afoul of Moscow’s harsh laws criminalizing dissent over the invasion of Ukraine.

which makes it sound like they allowed her to be a citizen, but the rest of the article is about how it didn't let her.

it doesn't appear to be easy to do either of those, from some quick testing. Looks like the <p></p> tags have bottom spacing which is causing the issue, mainly, at least in lemmy's case. weird.

i think if you put less whitespace in between it will format a bit better?

ah ok, so i'm assuming it doesn't fix either of the issues listed then. thanks.

there's https://lib.rs/, never actually used it myself, but it calls itself an alternative to crates.io

it sounds to me according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XWiimote that you might just need to run modprobe hid-wiimote and it just might work?

The second sentence says:

This driver is part of upstream Linux since version 3.1.

The bot has been unbanned.

For some context as to why, there was something that was reported as spam (can't remember the exact thing off the top of my head), and it looked like the community was unmoderated, with only the bot contributing, so it was banned.

With the addition of the extra mods, etc, the bot should be fine! Sorry about that!

i just tested this here: https://lemmy.ca/comment/2308379

and am seeing the same issue. deleting the root comment removes the entire comment chain. i didn't notice it at first because (i'm assuming) i'm an admin and can see deleted posts/comments, but when I checked it when not logged in the entire comment chain was indeed gone. and once i un-deleted the comment it was back.

i then deleted a non-root comment, and now it behaves even differently, with a link saying "2 more replies" but when you click on it it just spins forever. will check to see if there's already a bug related to this issue and report back.

edit: created an issue here, couldn't find any existing issues: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3886

essentially, yes. Google Talk was based on XMPP.

if you look at the function that gets the admins, then you can see that it's ordered by the Published date, so I believe you can just update the Published date to earlier than the rest of the admins.

 

The current mod is the former admin and no longer active here. Does anyone want to take over as mod, or does anyone want to nominate anyone?

update: made @TruckBC@lemmy.ca mod! thanks!

exactly this! unfortunately it's a bit cumbersome, but it's the best way to do it currently.

it probably wouldn't be overly difficult to write an extension that will handle lemmy links for you, not sure if the lemmy devs have this as something on their todo list (handling it all from within lemmy i mean).

There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

edit: Here's a nice getting started guide for lemmy: https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2023/06/11/lemmy-migration-find-subreddits-communities/

i should have added it here a while ago!
