What non-FOSS software have you been unable to quit? in c/foss@beehaw.org
[–] clumsy_cat@beehaw.org 2 points 7 months ago

I feel LaTeX is not a replacement for inDesign. It would be a replacement for something like word. maybe try scribus?

(EDIT: Sadness canceled, read edit) Although relatable, I feel sad beehaw wants to leave lemmy (+ I propose talking to the inital sponsor of lemmy development to get moderation issues fixed) in c/chat@beehaw.org

Oh thanks a lot! This completely changes my view of your migration. I thought it be an old school forum, not something with ActivityPub. Sadness canceled.

EDIT: as one of the admins explained below, they plan to migrate to something whitch uses ActivityPub, which means that my concerns are gone. I liked the interactions between servers who are equally wholesome compared to beehaw, which will be possible after the migration because of ActivityPub. So therefore, my sadness is canceled.)

The internet has already some queer forums similar to beehaw. For instance raddle.me and i am sure there are more that i don't know. Both have their unique flair and that's fine. I think lemmy (or more precisely, the ActivityPub powered fediverse that is at the core of lemmy) presents the unique oportunity to avoid isolated corners of the internet. I like raddle and beehaw, but i notice that i seldom read raddle and i think if beehaw goes to a similar isolated platform, i will probably read beehaw less.

I know that the mods tried to talk to the devs and their desinterest is equally sad.

However, i think you as a big instance still have one unused tool to fix lemmy's moderation issues within the "near short timeframe": talk to nlnet, the initial sponsor and explain to them your moderation issues. I think https://nlnet.nl/ would be interested given that lemmy is quite popular.

i think this could lead to two solutions:

  • nlnet understands the issue and comes back to the lemmy devs and integrates the moderation tools into the next milestone so that the lemmy devs are more forced to develop those things.
  • nlnet understands the issue and hires independent developers who fix the moderation tools which could either be integrated into lemmy (i think the devs wouldn't say no to this) - or it could lead to a fork.

beehaw.org is a great instance which defederates from lemmygrad, i think :)

This post doesn’t seem to be here by coincidence.

As the person who posted the original post: i don't like/trust tankies and them being tankies is one of the reason i deleted my lemmy.ml account.

My impression is that Linus also doesn't speak in his post about tankies, but instead i think the word "communist" is equal to some general leftist.

But i kind of agree, that this post can be seen as "in support of tankies". hmm.

my impression is, furthermoore: because the more tankie politics is on lemmygrad.ml, an instance which is easily blocked, it is not that bad / could be worse. I kind of hope instances like beehaw.org have the most users someday, because they are really awesome i think

originally found out about it via this post: https://feddit.de/post/736545 and i'm considering to subscribe.

But i'd like to hear some other experiences first. Also, because i can't watch any video without being subscribed.
