I didn't see that one! I'll need to check it out. Yeah, I'm glad the community is still going strong

Beehaw defederated lemmy.world.

If you go to any community on Beehaw viewed from lemmy.world, you can see that new content isn't available. Only posts & comments from lemmy.world users show up.

If you go to any community on lemmy.world viewed from Beehaw, you can see the same thing.

As soon as one defederates the other, all communication between them stops, afaik. The content isn't federated in either direction.

Edit: I might be somewhat wrong, since there are a few posts by users from other instances, but it's only a few, almost all posts and comments aren't available. I dont know what's going on here, disregard what I said.

iirc Google uses motion data to track if you're walking, biking, car, etc, so I wouldn't be surprised if Facebook/Meta did the same.

From what I understand, if we defederate from them, they can't see our posts either. See what happened when Beehaw defederated from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works .

They could still be see the content by creating another instance, or by getting it from lemmy.ca directly. I doubt they'll do that though, especially with Lemmy. Lemmy communities look weird when seen from mastodon, and I doubt they'd look much better from threads.net.

Also I hate how they called it Threads. That's already a word used for other things in this space. Theres a thing called the threadiverse, and it doesn't include Facebook/meta/instagram threads?

You can also use ddg.gg which is even shorter!

And you don't even need to go the ~~website~~ homepage, just type something like ddg.gg/search promt and it'll give you results straight away.

This is great even if you use a different search engine because you can use !bangs without needing to go through another webpage.

It's not only a kbin thing. Votes from Lemmy are still not anonymous. You can see who downvoted and upvoted any post from kbin, even if the voters were on Lemmy.

Even if kbin was to hide this information, it would still be sent from instance to instance. It'd be harder to see, but still accessible.

(From what I understand anyways)

I read through some of that link and the problem doesn't seem likely to be fixed anytime soon. But I didnt read it fully because it didn't look like it was going anywhere.

I disagree, they definitely don't want their own mini Lemmy. They want a safe space they are happy with, and defederation the only way they can do that with Lemmy's current mod tools.

Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works make up about 20% of the acitve users in the threadiverse (source). That is a lot, and it sucks, but it's far off from making beehaw an isolated instance.

Imo for now new users should be discouraged from joining Beehaw, lemmy.world, and sh.itjust.works, since all the content can be seen from other instances anyways.

For games with a dedicated aim button I prefer to have gyro on button hold.

For any game where you need to shoot without ADS, I like to have it always on, but disable with ratcheting/gyro off button.

I have no idea why they would remove vertical stick aim. I understand having the option, but it shouldn't be the default, and it definitely shouldn't be forced.

The post is duplicated, one with an image, one without an image.

Something happened to me in another community, where I made a post, but I made a mistake and deleted it immediately after posting. This caused the post to be deleted from my instance, but it was still visible from other instances. I'm guessing it's a bug with Lemmy. Since the post was deleted from my instance, I couldn't find it to delete it again.

The same thing probably happened with this post, because if you go to lemmy.nz this post doesn't exist there - try copying the permalink and going to it.

The mobile website doesn't show the announcement. Here's a link for anyone on mobile.

Reddit tried to remove https://i.reddit.com, but they forgot that you could also access it by going to https://reddit.com/.i

Wouldn't be surprised if they would remove RSS feeds but forgot they exist
