Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What function or code or programming utility should everyone know about and have access to?
5·7 months agocroc
https://github.com/schollz/croc
Send files over the internet.
It’s a small (several MB) CLI tool, that you download and run on both devices (sending and receiving one)
Typecroc send [file(s)-or-folder], you get the code phrase that you send to the person receiving the file.
On receiving device you typecroc code-phraseand the file starts transferring.End-to-end encrypted, and no need for port forwarding since it’s sent over the relay (you can even host your own relay).

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Anyone tried Syncthing Tray on Android?English
4·9 months agoHow viable would that be? Can it also just run in the background like the actual app?

4·9 months agoWould it be possible to run Syncthing in Termux?

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Does anybody else feel like Linkwarden is very resource intensive.English
1·11 months agoI use Linkding too, it’s very light and it’s great, I only wish it had the exclude tag filter and no tag filter. That would make it perfect.
It’s not. The oldest one I found on TinEye is before AI (2014) . It just got so jpeg’d over time that the line in the rock looks like a finger.
Suugar? Ripe banana is already sweet enough.
Hahaha that happened to me today. Stupid fly, trying to enter my ear canal :/
Wistful@discuss.tchncs.detoLemmy Support@lemmy.ml•Why can't I subscribe to a community?
4·3 years agoIs that really possible? I’ve never heard about that. If it’s true, I feel like it should be public information, like defederated instances.
But in this case I have a feeling it’s just a broken federation.

Lemmy@lemmy.ml•Lemmy (active) users # seems to stabilizeEnglish
25·3 years agoTake those graphs with a grain of salt. There are several websites that track activity and all of them show different results. I also assume that almost every lemmy update affects these graphs, since things did break quite a few times.
This is from the official lemmy site join-lemmy. It says 820 Servers, 41k Active users
spoiler

This is from fedidb (same site the screenshot from the post comes from). 923 Servers, 39,832 Active Users and 433,819 Total Users
spoiler

Then we have fediverse.observer. Based on that graph, monthly active users are growing. 845 Servers and 43,631 Active users and 1,944,442 Total Users
spoiler

And finally we have lemmyverse. Which uses the method to find the “sus” servers and users, so 863 Servers and 1,741,848 Actual Users

To me personally it seems like the content is becoming more regular and better in quality overall. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
You can’t go wrong with taking inspiration from RES. Having a filter for the type of posts next to the sort type would be pretty good. That would require the posts to be discerned into categories (video, image, text…). I believe they currently aren’t?
Although I can’t find those exact pics, I believe that the photographer is Drew Buckley (Puffin Man), he takes a lot of photos of puffins :D

Wistful@discuss.tchncs.deOPtoLemmy Support@lemmy.ml•Still facing the problem where I keep getting logged out
1·3 years agoAs it turns out, it only happens if I open lemmy from hyperlink on my custom startpage (local file).
Same. I don’t like that. We are going to start doubting the legitimacy of all media soon.
Double space (at the end of the line) = line break
Easy, regardless of the device you are using.

Lemmy@lemmy.ml•Why is there a lack of gifs/videos on Lemmy?English
2·3 years agoThanks for the suggestion, I’ll try it out. Currently using Alexandrite, it doesn’t even support imgur embeds…

Lemmy@lemmy.ml•Why is there a lack of gifs/videos on Lemmy?English
2·3 years agoIt’s interesting to see that Lemmy users are so against the video.
I still stand by my argument that video is the superior type of media. Just because everyone instantly thinks of a shitty YouTube video with a 20 minute intro and filled with ads or a TikTok video of a stupid trend, that doesn’t mean that video is bad. I do agree that most video content nowadays is shit, and I also agree that text or text+image posts are much better for a lot of things, especially when you are looking for specific information.But whatever your opinion about the video is, you cannot deny that video is the most popular medium and the most attractive/addictive one.
I made this post because I keep seeing posts about “Active monthly users dropped…” pretty often on here. Some say that’s because of the X reason, some say it’s because of the Y reason… Whatever the reason might be, this type of platform needs users, a lot of them.I think that providing a bit of a doomscroll content through videos wouldn’t hurt anyone. The whole point of this type of site is to have communities focused on different things. Many communities that are very popular on the “other site” are basically dead here because video (embedded video posts) support is bad here.
Besides, isn’t this a site on which you can choose which communities you follow? So why would people who are against video posts even care if you can simply filter such content if you are not interested in it? A few of those “doomscrollers” might trickle into your niche community tomorrow and make it more popular…
I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m kind of skeptical about Lemmy’s ability to keep the users. So I personally wouldn’t mind filtering a few shitpost communities if that means that we get more active users in other communities.
Maybe I’m wrong…




Why did you have any trust in Midori to begin with? Last time I checked, Midori was just a blatant copy/paste of another opensource browser.
