Good to know, thank you!

:)

This photo makes the little guy look small, while also giving off lion king pride rock vibes.

Is that a friend

We have already been seeing an increase in new legitimate users joining these past few days. Is this happening to any other instances?

I thought that it would be photos and timestamps for when people entered and exited the washroom, which would already be controversial

Notably, when the worker would not open the bathroom door for long, the other staffer would stand on the ladder and use the phone to click the pictures.

That sounds illegal

Reminded me to check on this Kickstarter I saw ages ago

Looks like they made it, I might grab one at some point

hey it looks like you posted a few times. Two of them have discussions already, but maybe you can delete this one?

Oh the twitter post

I didn't notice where the quote ended

Oh so that's why, I reverse searched the image earlier and it linked to that post. Looks like there is another image on that profile now

By local community I meant one that's specific to a small local area (ex. School, municipality). It's possible that people from other parts of the world are seeing the post in the All type feeds, but I found it odd that only views went up while comments and votes didn't until morning.

It makes sense for the cause to be bots, but that makes the number deceptive since it's implying that your post reached a certain number of human viewers. It should be possible to adjust that number based on their estimates of humans vs. bots

That's true, although some brands will still be better than others for quality at a certain price point, or cost/wear

The post has been viewed 3.7 million times.

Assuming this is the info box in new Reddit, those stats always felt... wrong

The difference between comments/votes and supposed "views" made it seem like the later was inflated.

Even more obvious was when something got posted at odd hours of the night in a local community. The view count would take off shortly after, while the comments and votes would only show up around when people wake up.

For astronomy there is !astronomy@mander.xyz. The communities on mander.xyz are STEM focussed and usually well moderated.

You could also try

• !astrophotography@lemmy.world
• !space@mander.xyz
• !space@lemmy.world

As for the instance, stay wherever you feel most comfortable. I have a few alts on other instances, including lemmy.world. You're also free to move later if you decide to.

If it helps I am based in the UK.

You can also check out the instance / communities at

I think so, and I agree that it's confusing. There's some discussion about it here

So my understanding is that

• apps can let them collect a lot more data than the website version. Apps have access to a bunch of device APIs, they might be running all the time vs a website tab that you close afterwards, etc.
• you just open a link vs. logging in through the play store

On top of that if you want to lock down further, it's easier to use a privacy respecting browser than it is to sandbox the apps to. For the average person it's easier to go from using the app to opening the website in a browser, than it is to swap their OS to GrapheneOS and set up sandboxing

That's also why a lot of websites mess with the mobile site, they want you to use the app

Wireless is just a fad anyway /s

Many expressed their appreciation for Kalle's years of service to the Linux networking stack but as of writing no one has stepped up to take over the formal maintainer role. Thankfully there are other Linux WiFi driver developers out there working on the increasing number of Linux wireless drivers, just not any immediate leader yet to take on the maintainer duties.

Good to know :)

While I didn't use Linux back then, I heard the wifi situation was difficult to deal with. I assume this maintainer is responsible for fixing that over the years?

Looks good! What is each dish?

Thankfully a lot of these are accessible by the web browser if you really need to use them. I should switch to doing that for more of them
