Digg founder Kevin Rose offers to buy Pocket from Mozilla in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] chrisbit@leminal.space 9 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

As someone who's never used Pocket but recently got a Kobo and saw there's an integration, I was a little annoyed they were shutting it down. I wonder if Kobo will create their own service to fill the gap? Given how hackable the device is, I'm sure the community will if they don't.

Really appreciate the effort that went into compiling this. Those leminal.space accounts have been banned.

I'm sure they'll be begging to negotiate any day now, Donald.

'The Count of Monte Cristo' is one I look forward to reading every few years.

Wish Australia would follow suit with their submarine orders. If only they hadn't just made an $800m instalment...

How anyone can take issue with calling this government 'fascist' is beyond me.

Has there been any benchmarking of Lemmy using mimalloc vs default (or jemalloc)?

Meta is getting rid of factchecking. If you want to leave Instagram, what are your alternatives? (www.theguardian.com)

“[For] people who live in the country or in remote areas or minority groups or [who have] small businesses, that is a really good way for them to communicate and reach other people,” she says.

“It’s just not possible to set up an alternative at this point in time. So, to put it bluntly, we’re in a bit of deep shit, to be honest.”

No mention of Pixelfed, but I can understand why. Will it only be seen as an alternative once a critical mass of users move there? And can that happen if they don't see it as an alternative? Chicken and egg. I'm trying out, but it's a little vapid when everyone I know is on Instagram.

I have been hosting this for about a year and really enjoy its interface. I noticed today it has reached this milestone and wanted to share.

The server has been updated to Lemmy 0.19.6 🎉

Refer to the release thread for a summary of changes and discussion.

It looks like there may have been some small style changes to the web UI, so please let me know if anything has broken with the Leminal Space theme (if you're using it).

EDIT: Minor bugfix release 0.19.7 has since been installed.
