19·15 hours agoIMO this is a good fit. There’s no rule against it, and I’m a fan of not splitting up communities until really necessary. Maybe once there’s so many people posting code for review that it becomes annoying to find other posts, then it’d be worth creating a new code review community or something.
Thanks for the link, that looks awesome!
Good callout. I’m actually admin on this instance so it wouldn’t apply to me by my reading of the code. Lemmy schedule also doesn’t currently use the scheduled posts Lemmy feature, it tracks it separately. Still good to know though, thanks.
Excited to see the idempotency feature. That will help a lot with double posts from using https://github.com/RikudouSage/LemmySchedule
Trump can pardon them for anything and everything at a federal level, and the current Supreme Court says you can do nothing about it. That makes whoever the president favors above the law.

I think there has to be some level of curation. I set up a queue to post loops to !loops@midwest.social, but I didn’t just write a script that posts everything. I use Loops myself and add things I think are interesting to the queue to be posted. It’s a lot of manual work, but I’m happy to do it for now to help grow the Fediverse, and I enjoy watching the loops anyways.
You could accomplish this with more automatic curation, such as automatically reposting stuff that’s highly upvoted or has some other signal that it’s interesting. I didn’t do that for Loops because there’s a lot of stuff that’s highly-upvoted and is just stuff scraped from TikTok and I don’t care for those. I would probably use this approach if I didn’t want to wade through myself to find signal.

Seems to be working fine for me
It wouldn’t surprise me at all. Pixelfed got mainstream notice, and there’s always someone willing to give you money. Pretty much every popular Firefox/Chrome addon developer gets emails about buying it, but those are usually just shady companies looking to push malware onto the existing install base.
Even apart from those, it wouldn’t really surprise me to see some VC interest when Pixelfed hit #1 on the play store. They love the idea of glomming onto something that looks like a rocket and trying to ride it to the moon
Looks like skeleton code to me? I don’t see how that could be what the site/app are running on
It does technically federate a little, @dansup@loops.video exists. Not real federation, but I enjoy being technically correct 🤓 I do wish dansup open sourced it already so people could get a better picture of what’s going on with it, but he did say he’s actively working on federation this weekend.
It does allow third party apps like Loopy, where are you seeing that it doesn’t?
Some thoughts from this Loops user on why the Fediverse matters. I’ve seen some people push back on the idea of “It’s like email, but for X”, but that way of explaining it really makes sense to me.
I agree with the thesis that centralization is bad. Centralization breeds concentration of power, and power corrupts, or something like that
Tags are coming soon, which I think would be equivalent:
In general, I think communities shouldn’t splinter until there’s a need. IMO both efforts should just use !fedigrow@lemm.ee, and title posts in a way that makes the distinction clear. They’re both about growing the Fediverse in the end. If and when it becomes too much to keep in the same comm, then you’d split it up. That’s just my opinion as an internet rando though 🤷
This meme is old enough to drink in the US
There’s a sudden influx of users from instagram and tiktok and whatnot because of the ban, zuckerberg fellating Trump, and all of that stuff going on. So the answer to “What’s getting posted?” is “everything”
If you’re up for it, that would be great to post over in the thread I just created in !asklemmy@lemmy.world:
