I wish this obsession with superhero movies would finally end. It's been going on for what, more than ten years now? And it's always the same, some bad guy wants to destroy the world (or the universe or the multiverse), then an excessive amount of cgi action happens and finally the good guys win.

Why not make some original movies with new stories, instead of rehashing the same old slop over and over again?

And yet the article manages to get people upset, makes the talk about it and get shared. Basically free marketing for SH2. It's a win-win for eurogamer and for the game publisher. All it takes is a single troll on Wikipedia and some PR work.

No domestic flight, just Europe -> Texas -> Mexico.

In principle it's finished, but last time we put it on lemmy.ml for testing there were performance problems and we had to revert. So far it's not clear what caused those problems, so we need to try again somehow.

Or you guys like to be shouted at. There is no other country that does this.

Not like that, they didn't let me board my flight from Europe to Texas. Even though I had a connecting flight to Mexico few hours later. Why can't they have a visa free transit zone like every other country in the world?

I only stopped there for transit on a flight to Mexico. Just before boarding my flight I was told that I need a visa for the US, which is extremely weird because normally airports have transit zones where you don't need any visa. But apparently the US is special, so you actually have to enter the country before going right back into the airport. This nonsense made me miss my flight.

Also I remember in the airport there was a security guard doing nothing but shouting nonstop that it's not allowed to carry water. Why not simply put up a sign?

Here is our regular update that explains what we have been working on for the past two weeks. This should allow average users to keep up with development, without reading Github comments or knowing how to program.

The last two weeks were rather quiet, with only some minor changes merged:

@Elara6331 made improvements to the RSS feeds, adding thumbnails and filtering invalid characters. She also made a change to account creation, so that new accounts automatically have the correct interface language.

@iatenine increased the font sizes in lemmy-ui.

@Kradyz improved the message of the add mod dialog.

@dessalines has been adding more mod tools to jerboa: adding ban actions and viewing votes.

@Sleepless has been working on lemmy-ui-leptos, as well as creating a rust api library for lemmy called lemmy-client-rs.

Support development

@dessalines and @nutomic are working full-time on Lemmy to integrate community contributions, fix bugs, optimize performance and much more. This work is funded exclusively through donations.

If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider donating to support its development. Recurring donations are ideal because they allow for long-term planning. But also one-time donations of any amount help us.

 

This library is responsible for federation in Lemmy, and can also be used by other Rust projects.

Here is our regular update that explains what we have been working on for the past two weeks. This should allow average users to keep up with development, without reading Github comments or knowing how to program.

Last Friday we finally released Lemmy 0.19.0, after a long development time and extensive bug fixing. Read the announcement to find out about the major changes. A few days later on Wednesday we had to publish 0.19.1 to fix a few more bugs that slipped through.

@phiresky fixed the critical bug with outgoing federation in 0.19. Previously he fixed an authentication bug in lemmy-ui which was blocking the 0.19 release.

@dessalines fixed the broken logic for "hide read posts". He also fixed a problem with email login being case sensitive

@nutomic reenabled pushing to crates.io so Rust developers can easily interact with Lemmy. He also made performance optimizations for /api/v3/site and the optimized the Activitypub context sent by Lemmy, reducing the database size and the amount of data sent between instances. He fixed various tests to prevent random failures in continuous integration 1 2

@dullbananas has long been busy improving the database queries for Lemmy, such as fixing a bug in the way different posts sorts are combined, and improving the test cases.

This is our last update for 2023. It was a very busy year for Lemmy, and it looks like 2024 might have even more changes in store. So lets enjoy these holidays, have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Let's say someone created a Wikipedia clone with Activitypub support, so you can freely read and edit articles on other servers. Basically the same way that Lemmy works. What would be a good name for such a project? Bonus points if the name goes with a cute animal mascot.

Edit: Here you can see the names of existing Fediverse projects.

This week we finally started deploying 0.19 release candidates to lemmy.ml, as a final testing step before release. Unfortunately there are some nasty authentication which we have been attempting to debug all week, without success so far. So it will take some more time to fix this and other issues before publishing the final version.

@rasklyd made Lemmy releases for ARM64 platforms possible. @kroese did the same for lemmy-ui. This means that official releases from Lemmy 0.19 will work on devices such as Raspberry Pi.

@dessalines has been very busy attempting to fix the previously mentioned authentication bug. He also worked on other bug fixes and upgraded Jerboa for Lemmy 0.19.

@nutomic again fixed various problems that were introduced during 0.19 development, to get ready for the release.

@Sleeplessone1917 implemented the frontend for user settings import/export. He also started work on an overhaul of context menus.
