Linux@lemmy.ml•What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?
1·2 years agoZorin OS, which was the second distro I ever tried, I hated how outdated their repos were since they were using an older Ubuntu LTS repository for packages. It was quite painful to install software that would otherwise have worked out-of-the-box on Ubuntu. I hope this is no longer the case today.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Introverts of Lemmy, what do you do when you feel lonely?
71·2 years agoI try doing something productive, like working on developing a new skill, or work on some of my hobby projects. That prevents me from feeling lonely.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would be a good name for a federated Wikipedia?English
10·2 years agoHere’s some that I thought about:
- Wikipub
- Wikihive (A bee mascot)
- Academoo (A cow mascot)
- LinkLynx (A lynx with a magnifying glass maybe?)
- Encyclonet
Hi, author of the Piped link bot here! I think this is meme great feedback to throw light on some issues on the experience with the bot. 😂 I’ll open an issue at https://github.com/TeamPiped/lemmy-piped-link-bot to track this later.

Memes@lemmy.ml•I chose to sleep with Marilyn Monroe not because she was easy, but because she made me hard!
3·2 years agoHey, thanks for the message! I’ve fixed the issue already, which was caused by a regression in one of my changes. To prevent this from happening in the future, I’ve added unit tests for the same. Sorry for the inconvenience caused!

Technology@lemmy.ml•My Opinion: NewPipe, Piped, Invidious, etc's days are numbered.

I think it is quite unlikely for YouTube to implement a DRM for watching videos. In anyways, we will keep fighting collaboratively as long as we can.
The most likely way YouTube probably will affect us currently is if they decide to log in wall their platform like how Twitter did.

1·3 years agoWould you like to add feddit.rocks? It’s a lemmy instance run by me :)

4·3 years agoOh, I see! I overlooked that you needed an account on the instance to be able to resolve remote communities.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Liftoff. Lemmy app. Do you like the way it works now?
1·3 years agoConnect is a closed-source application and is hence not on F-Droid. If you wanted to download apps from the play store, you can use Aurora Store btw!

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are the best fediverse alternatives to youtube?English
19·3 years agoPeertube is based on the Activitypub protocol and can federate with other instances just like Lemmy/Mastodon. Odysee is a decentralized blockchain-based video-sharing platform.
If you’d like to monetize your content, Odysee would be the better option due to its own cryptocurrency for tipping. I personally like Peertube more, as I think it is better moderated against right-wing content.

You could try HF Code Autocomplete VSCode extension. That would allow you to use open-source LLMs like https://github.com/bigcode-project/starcoder.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Lemmy bot to automatically reply to YouTube links with Piped ones
3·3 years agoIf the Peertube developers find a way to make a way to find the same content there through some metadata, we could support it easily, but currently, there isn’t anything.

Technology@lemmy.ml•Lemmy bot to automatically reply to YouTube links with Piped ones
6·3 years agoYes, that’s somewhat the point. You can see it in action in this comment. Rather than replace, it allows people to see a Piped link too instead of YouTube one.
Here’s a really cool YouTube video: https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ (the bot will reply to this)

Technology@lemmy.ml•Lemmy bot to automatically reply to YouTube links with Piped ones
5·3 years agoCurrently, it scans all posts that are federated with my Lemmy instance (
feddit.rocks), however, there are very few communities that it is scanning currently as there are very few users who have subscribed to communities on my instance.If more people register on my Lemmy instance and subscribe to more communities, it will scan those communities as well.
I hope more users register on my instance so it can be listed on https://join-lemmy.org/instances too :) I currently lack the 5 active users requirement for that, unfortunately.
Alternatively, I could maybe add a way for people to get the bot to subscribe to a community, so people from other instances can add communities to be scanned. 🤔You can now try sending it a message mentioning communities in the format!community@instance.tldand it will try joining it :)

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What operating system do you use on your main computer?English
2·3 years agoEndeavourOS, it’s based on Arch Linux.
Alpine Linux on most of my servers, if want something else for some reason Ubuntu.








It should be back now! I’ve migrated it to a new server earlier today since the old one had some issues.
