  • I like RSS, i think it can improve the information diet people have by getting high quality content. kinda an alternative to more popular content (meaning possibly low effort) pushed to us using algorithms or just created to appeal to the masses because it is more economical.

    It does have a UX problem, i think we need some open source project where you click on a button and it will show you the RSS address but also give you the option to set up RSS while it coaches you to do it in a way that is kinda pleasant and easy.



  • Any update on improving Lemmy fundraising process?

    KDE recently did a post where they describe the result of adding a notification asking for donations. the money they received from only paypal alone in the 7 days of December is almost 5 times higher (62K) then their biggest previous month (October 13K).

    Lemmy donations are down from march to today , while piefed is having a modest organic growth . maybe this could boost development resources bringing features users have been asking for years and improve the speed of experimentation that will help perfect Lemmy’s design and feature set.

    Thanks for the hard work again!






  • There is a open issue , the developers talked about it but no one pulled the trigger on it, this can be implemented on the client in a way that is pretty good (you could create client side backups using something like dropbox). We could open more issues on the various lemmy clients and maybe even piefed which seems to prioritize feature development in a way that might be better then lemmy developers currently. you can already read the comments on piefed and then subscribe to the posts and incrementally read new comments.








  • I use to use old forums, i don’t think the fediverse is worst then those old systems.

    I think you could just ask a one time fee when registering or a monthly fee if you want to reduce moderators burnout or increase professionalization (in the best possible sense). maybe even just have the money used and publicly donated to some non profit (or stuff like funding lemmy development). maybe having a place where people know everyone donated to achieve some worthy goal will increase the trust between people.

    Legal then says later that the clause was not legally binding and can’t be enforced or such, making dev rollback to earlier Intel version

    Yeah it was said by email, i actually did some research and turned out it is indeed not legally binding, i think it is good to know.
