My submission history looks the same, but I'm not posting about anything political.

I've given up on Reddit. I only lurk on it these days and that's only when Lemmy feels a little stale.

I believe that the "Nicole" images being sent to Threadiverse users may be intending to deanonymize accounts in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] lemmyingly@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It could be reasonably innocent. Eg. A student doing a study Lemmy and wants to see where the user base is roughly located. Since Lemmy has many privacy focused people on the platform, I doubt they would get many responses on a survey.

Why Lemmy is so superior to Reddit: No Karma, Just Value Content in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] lemmyingly@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

I call that negative karma. Low karma is 0-200. 200 because that is a limit that at least some subs would use to limit new accounts from posting.

I'd argue that low karma accounts tend to be new people or lurkers.

What's up, selfhosters? It's selfhosting Sunday! in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Search for trash guides and servarr. Both have websites that are detailed in how to set up all of the arrs apps in what ever fashion you want. I think both have Discord servers too.

AI search engines give incorrect answers at an alarming 60% rate, study says in c/technology@lemmy.world

To me it seems the title is misleading as the research is very narrowly scoped. They provided news excerts to the LLMs and asked for the title, the author, the publication date, and the URL. Is this something people do? I would be interested if they used some real world examples.

I've thought about turning my entire rear window into a mirror, but I imagine there is a law against it, so I haven't looked into it.

Why is the IPTV scene such a toxic shit hole? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I think buffering comes with the cheapest firesticks and the cheapest providers.

Could you set a 'password' on the uploads? So the server will only accept and start the upload if the password is present. The password is a passphrase to make it easy to type in.

Flatpak is far from perfect

  • bloated
  • sandboxing causes confusion
  • interacting with it in CLI can be interesting
  • all packaged libraries rely on the developer of the package you installed to update

RIP. I guess you live in the back end of no where.

I have a 40Mbps down, 5Mbps up connection for $30. Consider yourself as real lucky.

Is there a method to see a list of seized domains? (lemm.ee)
 

Is there a method to see which domains were seized, when 3 letter agencies seize them due to piracy.

Within the past month or two, Europol et al seized ~100 IPTV domains. I'm curious to know what these domains were. I've Googled but my Googlefuu isn't good enough.

And I'm curious in general for all piracy related domain seizes.

Reddit is removing the 1000 submission/comments limit on user profiles (www.reddit.com)

Reddit is removing the 1000 submission/comments limit on user profiles. Profiles will soon show all submissions/comments from the day the account was created.

Reddit is providing a method to delete all content by emailing redditdatarequests@reddit.com or via their form https://support.reddithelp.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360001370251

The submission link here on Lemmy takes you directly to a Reddit's admin submission that talks about the change.

Reddit's zero vote submissions (lemm.ee)
 

It looks like there are many submissions now being downvoted across many subs.

Before the API change I never really noticed mass submissions with zero votes. Now i see multiple zero vote submissions daily and I browse Reddit for about 20 minutes a day. My feed is set to sort by hot, so I don't see many submissions that have just been created.

Is this a sign of the type of people using Reddit these days, a lack of moderation, or could there be some bots floating mass downvoting?

I think I've experienced a bug with displaying comments. (lemm.ee)
 

I've experienced it today where the app doesn't show the comment if I click one of my own comments or the reply to it. It shows the parent comment and other comments in the submission.

I've checked the modlog for the community and neither comment has been removed, so it looks like it's a bug with the app?

Is shadow banning submissions/comments/users a thing on Lemmy? (lemm.ee)
 

Is there such a thing as shadow banning submissions, comments, or users on Lemmy?

I'm having trouble seeing a couple of comments that I know were there at some points, one of them is my own and I haven't deleted it. So it got me wondering, is shadow banning a thing here.

Bots copy pasting Reddit - is there a method to block them all? (lemm.ee)
 

I've noticed we have bots copy pasting Reddit submissions. Is there a method to block them all?

I assume they mean good by 'generating' content in communities, but I don't see a reason why anyone would comment on them since the OP is on Reddit and will never read them.

I know I can block each individual account as I come across them but I'd just prefer to block them all so I don't see their content at all.

They appear to do the nice thing by adding a line in the submissions about it being an automated submission. Is there a filter for words/phrase found in the body of a submission?

Has anyone tried obtaining ccTLD zone files? (lemm.ee)
 

I'm interested in looking at newly registered domains for bad actors.

There are services out there that offer zone files for 'all' TLDs but are too expensive for individuals not backed by a company to pick up the bill. I've also found some free lists but they appear to be incomplete.

So I've gone down the route of attempting to obtain zone files or at least newly registered domain lists from TLDs themselves. Obtaining zone files for gTLDs is straight forward with ICANN's CZDS service. But obtaining zone files for ccTLDs appears to be quite interesting. I attempted to Google but couldn't find anything so I've started to email ccTLDs; it already feels like I'm spamming since I'm sending the same email - I've only sent it to 10 TLDs so far. It looks like there are a few hundred ccTLDs.

Is there a better method than emailing each ccTLD and hoping for the best?
