Ah. I'm guessing that this instance has now made the same change as programming.dev - counting 'active users' as people who post, comment or vote, not just those who post or comment.

Stats will be a bit crazy for a few days, as the 7-day average will include the massive 1-day increases (e.g. [email protected] went from 46 active users to 1569) but they'll normalise from about the 12th December.

Oh. So it seems lemmynsfw is on 0.19 already (I had to change the bot a bit)

I'm guessing this is from the latest episode - if so, this Community is becoming my primary source for knowing when a new episode drops.

Mysteriously, this isn't currently playing via the standard web page on lemmy.world. But it does when viewed from other instances/frontends/apps, so I don't understand.

Casually hands over receipt:

Yeesh. Dunno why Nostalgia is tagged NSFW, but it's only moderator is long gone now. Won't appear in future. Will filter out shitultrassay while I'm at it.

Have found it impossible to upload this file directly to Lemmy. It's already a compressed WEBP file, but whatever settings I use, Lemmy insists on copying it and compressing it further, until there's only about 5 pixels left. So the only options left are for the post to be a link to the external url, or for it to look like a comment post, but with an inline image squashed inside. Neither are ideal.

EDIT: My experience with Lemmy:

EDIT 2: Now have something a bit more acceptable, loaded directly to Lemmy.
Lemmy always seems to compress WEBP at 75% - I uploaded an image, it compressed it, I downloaded Lemmy's version and re-up'd that, and it compressed it again. Presumably I could do this forever.

So, I created the original WEBP using the 'lossless' setting (it was about 2.5MB), uploaded that and let Lemmy convert it, and now it doesn't look too bad. The only thing is I had to use the version I tested at enterprise.lemmy.ml, 'cos feddit.nl got confused by the transparent frames. So the trick seems to be: upload the least efficient version imaginable

I replied to Blaze in another thread, essentially saying that [email protected] is currently a backup / potential replacement for this community (depending how things go with feddit.nl)

[email protected] does have new posts, but they weren't being pulled through when I clicked.

I wasn't trying to give you a hard time about it - I was just providing a alternative version of this meme (that was posted here a while back) with a jokey bit of text.

For clarity though: you're not forbidden from reposting memes from other sites. Original content is preferred, but none of us can deny the popularity of the classic stuff. There might be some guidelines coming about them, and when/if we get flairs, we'll ask for them to be tagged, but that's about it.

The plan is for this list to include Active Users growth from tomorrow. Today would've looked like: https://enterprise.lemmy.ml/post/417460

(enterprise.lemmy.ml is a typically non-federated test instance, so there's unlikely to be a local version available)

Hey there OP with the OC, thanks for playing along with today's theme. If you ever have any other suggestions for a Wednesday Theme, please feel free to get in touch (typically with me, RHO, or WhoRoger). So far, we've had Droids, Aliens, Pirates, Expanded Universe, D+ TV, and Rhymes. Things will cycle around of course, but if there's anything else you want to dedicate a day too, we'll do what we can (by which I just mean: create a sticky; have a crack at it myself; and hope someone else does too, but it's something, at least)
