  • What fedi accounts are you following?

    Jump

  • I'm not following anyone yet. It'll get a whole lot more interesting once we can accept boosted posts, which I'm working on now. Currently we're only seeing posts the authors wrote, not posts boosted by people we follow.

    It's a bit complicated because in Mastodon people often boost a post halfway through a conversation so when it arrives here we've got a fragment of a conversation and need to go out and get the rest before it can be stored. In contrast with Lemmy the top-level post always arrives first, followed by comments on it so it's simpler to accept them.

  • Hmm this version has 8 more people on it than the one I saw yesterday. Maybe it's being actively maintained, despite the attention.

  • It looks like there is an 'enable toxic mode' setting that DOES switch off the auto-updating blocklist. The LLM that wrote this post claimed that there is no way to turn it off.

    from src/lib/policies/system.ts: 

       
        
export async function updateSystemFilterPolicy() {  
    if (SBDisabled && get(userSettings).enableToxicMode) {  
        SYSTEM_POLICY.set(BLANK_SYSTEM_FILTER_POLICY)  
        return  
    }  
   // auto-update of blocklist continues below

    The original post was written using AI so it's going to have a lot of inaccuracies like that.

    Overall though, having gone through the code myself, the LLM is in the right ballpark. The most friendly evaluation I can give is that this does seem poorly documented, too opaque and overly prescriptive. And needlessly encrypting the payload looks very shifty.

  • In a 234-page report, the UN Group of Human Rights Experts on Nicaragua revealed structures of systematic repression that quelled anti-government protests that erupted in 2018 and left at least 350 dead and hundreds detained.

    The [54] officials named [in the report] "played key roles in arbitrary detentions, torture, extrajudicial executions, persecution of civil society and the media, denationalization campaigns, and the confiscation of private property," a statement accompanying the report said.

    How can I set up PieFed and Zulip to share user logins, similar to how piefed.social and chat.piefed.social do?

  • You're the guy who used a LLM to create 300 useless comments on the piefed codeberg repo. I had to contact codeberg to get them deleted.

  • I just fixed a bug in the instance blocking, I hope it helps!

  • Is it me or does Lemmy have a propaganda problem?

    Jump

  • Ah, I just found a bug here - the instance blocking wasn't checking the instance of the author, only the instance of the community. It checks both now.

    Thanks for bringing this up!

  • Yes although when you post in a remote community the remote instance will send your content wherever. They don't know who you've blocked.

    That's one of the reasons I post in local communities more, these days.
