Ps: thank you for your work!
Thanks!
Maybe I'm completely misremembering things, but at some point wasn't there a hotfix to Lemmy that hard-limited how many comments a thread could have? Does anyone know if there's a maximum and if so how many?
Just wondering, cause uh, I could see this one having a lot of comments.
The fix you are referring to only limits how many comments can be retrieved in a single API call (300). This limit is only used when specific parameters are passed, not in all cases.
Is there a reason we don't have users ability to block entire instances, or is it difficult to code? (I don't mean to sound ungrateful)
Is it possible to disable the caching of images from other instances onto my server?
First off, thank you for this awesome platform and for being my first real experience with contributing to FOSS, I learned quite a bit and I had a lot of of fun! I really hope Rust ends up becoming the new standard in web backends instead of Java with Spring/Springboot.
The only question I have that hasn't already been asked is about the legal side of things:
What are you responsible for as the developers of Lemmy, and what are you responsible for as the owners of a Lemmy instance?
Do you have to take certain measures to keep the platform clean from illegal activities and CP/gore? If so, what has been done?
The same question applies to GDPR rules for Europe.
Thanks for doing this :D
What was your first reaction to the massive exodus from Reddit during the blackout? Was it something you were expecting?
How do you plan on improving the onboarding/sign-up process for newcomers, especially when they have little to no understanding about the Fediverse?
Firstly, I just have appreciation for you and nutomic for this amazing platform that you've created. This has become my favorite source of reading discussions and looking at memes. I know it's small, but I love it and want it to succeed. My question is Do you see Lemmy or any other federated platforms reaching the level of audiences that other big Social Media Platforms currently have? Do you want it to grow big like them, or remain as it is, An amazing platform hidden in one corner of the Web?
What are your opinions on third party apps for Lemmy using ads on their free version?
what new feature would Lemmy have in the 1.0.0? I know it's quite a long way to go, but what is the vision you guys have moving toward it?
Edit: bonus question: what does Chat supposed to do?
1.0 is not about features, but stability. It means there wont be any breaking changes to the api or federation for a while, until 2.0. In fact we were thinking to make some breaking changes and then release 1.0 later this year. But then the Reddit migration happened and those plans had to be scrapped.
Chat simply orders the comments in a different way, newest first without any nesting.
Do you aim for Lemmy to become GDPR-compatible in the future ( see https://gdpr-info.eu/ for details)?
Any plans to make it easier to interact with links to other instances?
The QoL value to automatically open links to other instances inside my current instance would be enormous.
