That bot is one of the few users I’ve had to block. I’m happy to sift through ‘organic’ posts that don’t interest me, but when it’s just reposting Reddit posts and losing the benefit of the discussion under that post, it kinda sucks

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•This little machine continues to surprise meEnglish
5·2 years agoIt’s runs really well, actually. I don’t have any solid numbers because I wasn’t really into that side of it, but I had a fairly large base going, about 20 hours past endgame (no where near a megabase, though) and no performance issues.

Lemmy@lemmy.ml•PSA: Many Lemmy instances are currently experiencing massive automated sign-ups (bots)! If you run an instance with open sign-ups, please read!
1·2 years agoMaybe this is what’s implied or I’m just being silly; What is to stop a bad actor spinning up a Lemmy instance, creating a bunch of bot accounts with no restrictions, and spamming other instances? Would the only route of action be for the non spam instances to individually defederate the spam ones? Seems like that would be a bit of a cat and mouse situation. I’m not too familiar with the inner workings and tools that Lemmy has that would be useful in this situation
I think new communities are extremely heavy weighted in the trending section. I’ve not looked at the algorithm for it, but the 2 communities I made were on there immediately after creating them.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Cannot select "undetermined" languageEnglish
2·3 years agoJust came here to edit my comment (and mention I didn’t realise this was an instance-specific issue) after seeing that, cheers!

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•Cannot select "undetermined" languageEnglish
0·3 years agoIf you Ctrl+ Click English and Unspecified, it will select both. I’ve personally just clicked on the languages box, pressed Ctrl + A to select them all, so I can see posts in all languages. I had an issue at first where I accidentally selected only Undetermined and some Cyrillic language, so when I posted from jerboa (which I guess automatically selects the language if you have more than Unspecified set), it was marked as that language.
Ahh, I get you. I decided not to bring that rule over from there (at least for the time being) so people aren’t deterred from posting, and the community can have it’s own path, not necessarily dictated by it’s reddit equivalent

Gaming@beehaw.org•Microsoft promises Starfield has "fewest bugs" of any Bethesda gameEnglish
10·3 years agoBut the bugs are an essential part of any Bethesda game
I’m confused, is there an issue I’m not seeing? (I’ve only just realised I’d bungled my languages so only just seen the posts labelled English here)
I use Ecosia. Supposedly I’ve done enough searches for 241 trees to be planted, and I’ve yet to see anything that suggests they dont follow through with the promise to fund the planting of trees (although I’ve not actively looked). I think it’s backed by bing so the results are a bit iffy sometimes, but I use the equivalent of ddg bangs to search Google if I need





Low latency (edit: I should probably elaborate given the community I’m in - when looking for wireless headsets specifically for use while gaming, it’s an easy way to know that what I’m getting is going to be low latency, and likely come with a specific receiver for that)
