sorry i just had to

skill issue

i’m pretty excited for fedify since i’m unsure if there has been any other activitypub abstraction that feels as comprehensive as it seems right now (from a brief skim, anyway).

one thing i had in mind ever since i first skimmed the docs some time ago is this:

federation.setActorDispatcher("/users/{handle}", async (ctx, handle) => {

i would really recommend you to NOT tell people to use handles here. i assume this is just naming and the framework doesn’t actually require a handle there, but documentation matters and if you follow on the footsteps of mastodon, pleroma, lemmy, and friends everyone who follows your docs will lose the ability to change usernames down the line without more pain than it’s worth (and yes, there are software out there that allow it right now! please do not build fedi software assuming usernames are immutable jsut because mastodon doesn’t let people do it)

just like how you wouldn’t use a natural key in a database, you should tell people to use a surrogate key like an autoincrement id or a uuid on the actor IDs, as they’re effectively permanent. while it may be probably fine for a quickstart thing like this to omit that, a lot of permanent codebases do start up by following these kinds of guides, and nudging people to do the correct thing when it’s not that hard is always a good idea IMO

yep, definitely. i just thought “hey wouldn’t it be funny if two dudes just ate some undefined substance because it’s cheap” and, uhhh, yeah

i genuinely love it when people make their own meaning about shit i make sleep deprived out my mind because i thought of a funny word

this is what it feels like reading a post from a mastodon.social user except they have a character limit of like 2 so instead of separating the #hashtags they will #PutThemInline #LikeThis so you get an #aneurysm reading a post

my condolences

Am I understanding right that this has a low percentage chance of triggering on every tick

yes!

but will release a bunch of angry Enderman when it finally does?

no. you’ll get teleported to where the enter pearl is and the potions will be shot towards you, killing you instantly.

There’s no real reason to. Your own instance (in this case, lemmy.world) has the real view of the thread by the virtue of being the instance starting the thread. lemmy.ml only has it’s own copy of this thread that’s likely reasonably accurate (compared to any other random instance out there, considering it hosts the community), but it’s not the original version, which is what the fediverse link points to.

many such cases

this is true i was the wiring in the wall

The Pleroma family of ActivityPub servers are on Elixir and their bottleneck seems to be their awful database schema where everything is JSONB, and even then they’re known to be quite lightweight, so I assume with a proper DB schema it’d work quite well…

this is what happens when lemmy tries to handle microblog content not specifically tailored to it’s exact quirks

people in real: hey how’s it going

i dont think i have the ai on my google yet + the pic works better if its obviously faked

while i don’t have any specific opinions about this that other people haven’t addressed, i just want to flag up something;

How this could be enforced? No voting from the All and/or Local feed. Seems easy and straight forward.

this seems unenforcable. as in, you can’t really tell where someone discovered a post from. yeah you can just remove the buttons from those views clientside and it’ll probably work for the majority of cases, but alternate clients or modifications to lemmy-ui can simply put the buttons back in (or in cases of unmaintained or differently opinionated clients, just not remove the buttons at all). the backend can’t really differentiate which view a vote comes from. federation especially can’t differentiate which view a vote comes from.

wdw and it’s circle is hands down the best fedi has to offer. miss me with that mastodon.social shit

at least you can use mastodon in the meantime

this is how it starts. first you open one for your cat as a joke and next thing you know you’re going meow meow :3 nyaaa~~ at people online and suddenly social media starts makign sense
