Well that’s a new depth of loneliness I didn’t know existed before. Great.

Yeah I’m pretty interested in this and Topics is only the first iteration of the idea. At the time piefed.social was basically a single-user instance so making the topics admin-manually-curated groupings was fine. Perhaps it’s time to take things to the next level, tho.
The concept of ‘multireddits’ sounds like a bundle of related functionality and I’m not sure which parts of that you’re interested in that PieFed’s “topics” doesn’t already do. Is it the user-created part? The subscribing part? The join-many-communties-at-once part? PieFed does some of those already but you won’t see it unless you’re logged in…
A solid choice. I’ve been using it daily ( codeberg.org ) for the last year and it’s pretty great!
The code review features are not as awesome as github but you won’t need those.
It’s going well, thanks for asking. I enjoy using it and improving it every day.
Over the last year I’ve learnt a lot and if I started again today I’d lay some of the underlying foundations differently - in a way that supports a medium sized app instead of a small one. At the time I didn’t know if it would ever grow beyond being small… Good problem to have!
Yes, it’s a bit different.
In Kbin they are user-defined. If kbin.social was online I’d share a link.
Yes your frustration is totally understandable. It is a very heated topic and a lot of bad faith arguments are thrown around.
Sometimes I remind myself not to hope that the person I’m replying to will understand my reply or acknowledge that I’m right - instead I post my reply for the lurkers to read, who are far more numerous. The lurker has not publicly said anything so their ego is not fixed on defending their position and they are more likely to receive what I contribute with an open mind.
With this wider context, the goal changes. When the target audience shifts to the readers then there is no longer a need to continue a long back and forth discussion (the person replying to me will never change their mind anyway!) once I have made my point clearly. It’s ok if the other person has the last word if by having it they discredit themselves by demonstrating a closed mind - the lurkers will see it.
I hope this helps.
I’ve been reading your posts. You make excellent points very often, clearly drawing from a deep knowledge of the region.
However continually calling people names and insulting their intelligence will tend to stop them from really hearing your message and just inflame the situation. You could just not type that stuff and then everything else you type would have more impact. It’d be a pity to waste all that effort.
I don’t think trac has any kind of kanban UI to it, btw. They might have added it by now, it’s been years since I used it.
It depends what you were using Jira for - it has a lot of features, most of which you were probably not using.
Trac has a wiki, tickets and git all in one - https://trac.edgewall.org
NextCloud has a plugin called ‘Tasks’ which looks similar to Trello.
Forgejo is similar to github - https://forgejo.org/
Sports - https://piefed.social/topic/sports-fitness
Gaming - https://piefed.social/topic/gaming
Science - https://piefed.social/topic/science
Cooking - https://piefed.social/topic/food
Gardening - https://lemmy.world/c/gardening
It is understandable that you didn’t find those communities, discoverability is a real issue with Lemmy. I have tried to solve this by curating communities into groups of Topics - https://piefed.social/topics
When I started working on PieFed I was all enthusiastic about the idea of moderation tools. But when it came time to actually code that functionality it was like pulling teeth. Just. Sooo. Boring. It took weeks longer than it should have, for that reason. This was really surprising to me because I’m deeply passionate about moderation and ‘gardening’ a community.
That’s the thing about open source, people just do the fun stuff. There’s always some fun stuff to do which distracts from the boring-but-necessary.
I wonder how many of those registered members are active? Maybe 38?
Some gentle pressure applied here might change that https://codeberg.org/swiso/website/issues/255
Yeah, I think it’s that one. Does Discover pull it’s content from flathub.org?
It says “by Signal Foundation” on it and 900,000 people have installed it so it seems good enough to me.
I have the official Signal Desktop flatpak installed through Discover. It exists.
The headline had me hoping for things like “Xinjiang - how we incarcerated 1 million people for only $5k pp / year” or “Integrating vassel states - lessons from Hong Kong” or “The Tibet Journey” or “Propaganda for fun and profit Steve Bannon edition”.
Nope 😴
Yeah, I read the whole thing. It was a good story but I felt that when it came time to “deliver the goods” they fell a bit short. For example, this: https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/final-image-global-south.png. That is under the heading “Clearly authoritarian”, which seems pretty strong for such a boring sounding course.
I stand by my earlier comment.
I wish they were able to find better examples of the courses and the content (not just the summary from marketing materials). The examples they provided were really tame.
in China, law enforcement is designed to protect the state and the Party rather than the people, journalism is prescribed to create national unity rather than act as a check against the system, and the law is intended to protect the regime rather than its citizenry.
Very succinctly put!
In the Constitution of China you’ll find a section where it explicitly states that the interests of the group outweigh those of the individual. It’s baked into the legal bedrock.
Yeah user-created topics would be a fine enhancement. Various aspects of the multireddit concept have separate issues in the issue queue but they haven’t been coherently tied together yet. It might be time to do that.
One way to limit exposure to negative news is a keyword filter, which I implemented 6 months ago, early on in the project: https://piefed.social/post/7576
