Just remember if someone says you're in an echo chamber just ask if they're a part of it and if they say no then you're not in an echo chamber
I love openai model names. 3.5 wasn't enough so you need turbo but turbo is is nothing compared to 4.0 but you can mini version for free and now it's just 4.5. I still use 3.5 turbo api
Yeah I can't blame people for not understanding me and thinking a completely different thing based on one word I used
That's actually a different concept than what I'm saying, but I can tell comment section isn't here to hear me out
Guess you're the pigeon, but nah hostility doesn't mean anything to me. You obviously haven't read my advice or processed the actual meaning
Guess people on lemmy have effective muteness they just can't communicate what they mean.
I'm not seeing how I'm a cunt. This might be a 4 blind men and and a dead elephant situation.
Yeah it's funny that everyone trying to give me a taste of my own medicine with their spin. Like yeah I empathize with them and I'm trying to help and it actually came from my personal life.
You'll accept the different kinds of people that exist in this world maybe not today.
Rotten apple apple the bunch is meant to be litteral ironically(don't store store rotten apples with good apples) and people really don't like when I give the what I got from them. I like sharing my what I know and my opinion.
No one is actually explaining how I'm wrong just that they don't like what I'm doing. I do like how you essentially get my point that negative people will make a negative environment even if it's positive.
I'm litterally saying that's how the world is not everyone is super cheery and pro social. Sometimes they're POS and you have to accept that about them
I like how I get to the end and no one explains how I'm wrong, but yeah you're pushing out negative energy but you're doing this for some perceived sense of justice or you want to hurt my feelings. I'm stating how the world is, it's not like I'm creating negative people
I have accept who I am? How am I being inconsiderate asshole? I generally think it's nice to actually care enough to give advice
I said accept that their father is a negative person, not accept their abuser as you put it. It's actually good advice are they supposed to think constantly about their father is verbally abusive, not repress it?
Yeah you can mute an account so you get no notification on it
I should clarify that the bit is a mastodon account so you'd have to follow it.
Apparently saying accept your father for who they are is victim blaming
Apparently I don't have the mods account it's just verified on the app. Seems like mods on certain comms just make up whatever placeholder reasoning when you don't break the rules. I thought you had to blame the victim to victim blame and my post didn't blame anyone for anything.
Should mastodon allow bots that post when streams go live
I want to avoid giving any arguments to either side of the debate because I don't want to Poison the well.
The question is should main instances of mastodon allow for bots that see when fediverse streamers go live.
I was oddly coming to that conclusion, like it would be a mastodon instance but the json would communicate game States and state transition (like buying an item in game), but you wouldn't need a mastodon instance for that.
I thought about making a account that is tamagotchi but for a villager. Like you make sure they're feed and hydrated and they work enough to get supplies they can trade(with other players) for food and water. Something simple so that it's addicting or hard to code.
Then I think that I should be fediverse project. It would help with engagement, but I can see people making monetized systems and developing gambling pages...
I like the description of 1 fram every 30 minutes. So a play through should take a few decades
Are there and mastodon texted based rpg games
i came accross this mastodon account that does polls to see what character does in rpg setting https://mastodon.social/@dungeons
I wanted to know if there was any games that simulate an mmorpg and can even have character interactions or mining. it would be fun to promote or make for fediverse engagement. for all I know it can be a simple game where you are stuck in the starting village and all you can do is trade wood, hay, and charcoal.
Fediverse plays genra
I'm trying to pioneer twitch plays genre onto peertube. I got a script that will scrap data from the chat associated with the stream and use it to control Gameboy color emulator. I don't have my own server so I'm at the Mercy of whoever will let me stream.
Issue are that there's no API or xmpp access to keep the data being sent low and the processing time low as well
I can post the source code and link it if anyone is interested
Are psychopaths normalized?
In you're daily life do people praise psychotic people or behavior? Most of the time I feel like I'm a psycho that has to work with general public. It's not like I'm aggressive, I just decide that how a stranger feels doesn't matter as much as whatever I need.
has anyone compile the loops app on github?
I don't have my setup for compiling apps in front of me. just curious if its anything like the apk?
Feel vindicated about loops
I've told my story about how I pushed Daniel to post the source code for loops by pixelfed, of course a lot of people don't like my methods which i understand. My morality and logic is just different.
But seems in past 24 hours loops GitHub code has undergone updates. https://github.com/joinloops/loops-app
It correlate with me posting my story on Lenny for the past few days. I won't looking into the code posted. Someone else can verify if the loops code matches the APK you get when making an account from the website.
After 5 years of development loops is becoming open source and passionate people of the fediverse can hopefully improve loops.
As for me I'm hoping to build up niche communities in the fediverse so there more engagement.
Lemmy seems to be a very powerful part of the activity hub protocol
Loops by pixelfied Is Doomed to Fail Because Daniel Supernault Doesn’t Want to Develop It
TL;DR: Loops is doomed because Daniel Supernault doesn’t actually want to develop it or release the source code properly.
I’ll try to provide evidence where I can, but a lot of evidence was destroyed via bans from the Discord, so I can’t retrieve my messages, and All I have are files I saved on my hard drive and mastodon links.
How I Got Involved I got into Loops because of the TikTok ban scare and wanted to help develop a non-corporate fediverse alternative to TikTok and YouTube Shorts. I signed up, made two accounts (wasn’t sure why I couldn’t log in), and got approved after two days.
Once I had an account, I downloaded the Android APK and joined the Discord. I introduced myself as someone who wanted to help and mentioned that I had tried (and failed) to make a Fediverse app before. I was interested in seeing where Loops would go. For about 12 days, I made videos for Loops, making sure there was consistent content so the platform didn’t go 10 minutes without something new. I also helped in Discord, answering questions about account activations and discussing how Loops could become a major part of the Fediverse (which, as of 2/16/2025, it still isn’t). I thought if Loops could launch before the next TikTok scare, it had a real shot.
I Start Asking Questions After 12 days of making content and being active in Discord, I was getting bored. I wanted to figure out why there weren’t any real developments. I knew Daniel had promised on Discord that Loops would be open-source “by the weekend” (this was 12 days ago). To me, that meant publishing the source code. So, I made a video calling him out (archived here: dalek.zone/w/jUUYe11xDvjz15ZRAxQuy7) and posted it on Discord. A few minutes later, Daniel deleted the link and removed the video from Loops. His only response was, “Misinformation is not appreciated”—with no further context.
To me, this reaction was suspicious. He didn’t explain why he hadn’t released the source code. He didn’t ignore it either, which I interpreted him as being guarded.
Getting Banned from the Discord After Daniel’s reaction, I started wondering if Loops was a waste of my time. Was anything actually happening? I tried decompiling the Android APK to see what was inside but couldn’t get it to recompile. I thought about forking the Loops GitHub with the decompiled source and posting it in GitHub as a fork—but I didn’t even need to. Instead, I asked why Loops wasn’t just a PeerTube instance, since PeerTube already worked on short formed video content with a tik Tok like interface. I even made another video about it: dalek.zone/w/fVW4GbW79bBpiyLrDGJBBa. The last thing that happened before my ban was me asking if anyone was actually doing work on Loops. Instead of answering, they flipped the question back on me. I replied, “Yes, I am decompiling the source code so we can do work.” after, Discord glitched, the Loops server disappeared, and I was locked out. My Loops account was also deleted. This made it clear: Daniel didn’t want me questioning loops or suggesting that PeerTube could do the job better.
Calling Him Out on Mastodon After my ban on discord, I did more research on Daniel and kept calling him out on Mastodon as a warning to others. Eventually, he did publish a “source code” for Loops. Just to spite him, I thanked Michael Downey (mastodon.social/@Cattail/113932221184535082) for pushing him to release it by asking him a question. But two hours later, I pointed out that the APK and the published source code didn’t match: (mastodon.social/@Cattail/113932308245134257).
Conclusion I’m glad I did what I did because it saved me from wasting more time on Loops. Instead, I built a bot that announces when Fediverse streamers go live on Mastodon, which actually helps the community. Daniel is asking for money that would be better spent on PeerTube development or maintaining existing Fediverse instances. Daniel is deceiving people, pretending Loops is making progress when it’s really just a rehash of Pixelfed. His Kickstarter has no deadline and only vague updates. If you still want to support him, that’s on you. I’ve seen enough.
