I’ve only just started playing it for the first time after years of it sitting in my steam account. It’s been fun so far!

Damn, they lock down your Outlook settings? I don’t think I’ve ever worked anywhere that did that.

I prefer that thing where someone sends you an invite for a month from now, and sends you a separate email with the important documents in it. At least the stuff in the calendar invite can be found from the calendar, that email you sent a month ago is not tied to the meeting in any way.

It’s not the only option, I have it disabled so they stay in my inbox once accepted/declined.

I don’t have that alt text field for post images on Boost, will check the web UI.

In the web UI it’s between the language and the community, not even next to the image. Not great or obvious but it’s there once you upload an image.

And yes, I can speak as moderator, but I can’t pin other people’s comments.

Sorry, I misunderstood again! No, I don’t think you can pin other people’s comments in Lemmy (or PieFed, as far as I can tell).

but Lemmy does not prompt you for one when uploading a main image to a post,

If you’re adding an image post there is an alt text field, but it doesn’t show until the image is uploaded, and Lemmy doesn’t try to bring attention to it. Mastodon is definitely better in that regard.

And yes, I’m aware of “feature in community”, but isn’t that only for posts?

Oh sorry, I misunderstood. You can use “Speak as moderator” and I believe this pins a comment for the Lemmy website, but may have sporadic app support.

Not OP but I use an Enterprise version that is fine, I guess a different release branch. My mother doesn’t have the enterprise version as she works for a small business and it broke.

Looking at last year’s survey, the number of self-hosted devices has 2-3 first. And Raspberry Pi is most popular.

I wonder about this, because I have Pi for Pi hole, and one for Home Assistant, each dedicated. Then almost everything I self host is on a different server. But this still represents Raspberry Pi twice as much as the main server. I think Pis may be most popular because there’s many single-purposes uses for them.

Lemmy does have a feature to “Feature in community”.

I’m here to support the encouraging of all images having alt text. People with low vision may not get the same view of the image, but without alt text they may not even know what the image is at all!

Alt text for pictures of pet dogs should also be more than just “picture of dog”. Whatever is important in the picture should be included, e.g. “A picture of my golden retriever sitting on a couch, looking at camera with happy look on her face”.

This way someone who can’t see the picture well can still participate, e.g. “Oh I love golden retrievers, I have three and they are always chewing up my slippers but I love them anyway”.

I’m here fighting for us to get better at alt text as it’s something Lemmy does poorly compared to Mastodon.

Piefed and Lemmy can both import your settings (including subscriptions) from another account.

Piefed can important Lemmy subscriptions/settings as well, but Lemmy can only do Lemmy I think.

You can’t bring your posts/comments but you don’t have to start from scratch.

Edit: typo

There used to be one like that a few years back! From memory I think it was on the German feddit that doesn’t exist anymore.

How about pointing them at Piefed instead?

You could point them to the instance chooser. It’s on every piefed instance but is decentralized so may be different on different instances, here’s piefed.social: https://piefed.social/auth/instance_chooser

Piefed has all the same content but a different feature set and worse app support, but app support is growing.

How do we know Dr Pepper is a person doctor not a vet?

Or maybe Dr Pepper has a PhD?

I don’t know that I’ve ever seen subtitles synced correctly outside of streaming services. You must have a different setup to me.

Firefox won’t load local IPs and I have no idea why 🙁

A few phones back I started getting a second hand flagdhip phone every 3-4 years, I think it’s well worth the flagship second hand 1 year old model instead of the mid range phones I used to get for the same price.

Plus the last couple have been pixels for GraphineOS, so it’s nice to not be directly handingb Google money.

I thought the implication was that you may only be able to buy from that registrar if you’re from/in that country?

Summit here too. I changed up some of the display settings so it feels like Relay for Reddit 😀

The things that got me to move from Voyager were that when images didn’t load first time, there was no way to re-try - Summit has that. And I don’t think Voyager handled drafts that well. Summit has drafts but I do wish there was a client that had drafts like Relay did, where if you come back to the same comment/post and hit reply it has your draft from where you left off on that comment/reply.

Can’t you just put the stuff in the trolley unbagged then bag them when you get to the car?

So if your toast isn’t taller than those sides, can you open it sideways or something? Remember those bars are scorching hot.
