If you don't already know, loads of the images attached to your posts were deleted by accident: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5560

There's a user who cross-posts lots of stuff from ML, and when the admin banned him, it nuked your images too (because both your posts and his posts were pointing to the same image).

It's probably best to keep the first +1 for your own post or comment, as that's what's expected from people's experience on other platforms, and that's how it will appear on platforms that the content has federated to. Whether a user's reputation score should give them an additional and visible +1 is debateable, but PieFed might be stuck with that decision now.

It's usually best to given 'em the benefit of the doubt, as a bad performance by a child actor is often more due to the director than the kid.

The show runner for Mad Men cast his own son as 'Glen', and that kid was a terrible actor (he's an adult now obvs, so I consider his performance fair game for criticism).

Lemmy (still) doesn't support pinning by non-local mods: I just tried for feddit.nl (which is on 0.19.10), and it rejects the activity (the specific error is 400: {"error":"couldnt_find_community"} but that's not really relevant 'cos the community is plenty findable from the activity)

I don't think that blog author is male, btw.

Lemmy logs its outgoing federation activity (rotating every 7 days I think), but not their incoming activity. That was a PieFed feature to aid debugging and development (I say 'was' because it's not enabled by default anymore - you have to add LOG_ACTIVITYPUB_TO_DB = True to .env to get it back).

If you start your own instance, you'll find that Topics have to be all manually created by you, whereas Instance-level Feeds can be copied from other sites to help you bootstrap what you want your navigation structure to be. The idea would be, that if Feeds can completely replicate the functionality and convenience of Topics, then neither admins or users would notice or mind if Topics were removed.

It's not something to worry about though - I was just thinking aloud about possibilities, not announcing my plans.

Nothing currently exists to help migrate DBs. Not yet anyway (other Lemmy admins have also expressed an interest in changing over).

This show was a bit more kitchen-sinky than shows I'd normally watch - it reminded me a bit of stuff by Ken Loach or Mike Leigh, but I liked Adolescence a lot more than their films (even though I realise that their output is highly regarded).

I've seen a fair bit of negativity about it in these kinds of online spaces, so I imagine that I'm going against the grain by saying that I'd recommend it. It's best to know as little about it as possible beforehand though - not just about the story beats, but also don't buy into the hype about it and expect too much of it.

It's harder to detect, but wildly optimistic if they think that people are going to manually type URLs out. It feels like this latest manoeuvre is just to score a win in the arms race against them.

The point (to the extent there was one) was to move past any gender-role discussion and accept the picture at face value. Even when it's cold, I've found that it has to be really cold to not find too many layers on my legs to be oppressive after any amount of activity.
