If anyone wants Canadian content in a "Reddit-like" format, lemmy.ca federates with Mastodon. For example, @manitoba can be followed directly on Mastodon (though it's kind of messy, as both posts and comments show up in the feed as "boosts"). Beyond that, you can simply tag the account in a toot, and it will double as a post to that lemmy community - you'll get the replies, too!
Okay hear me out. What if we all chipped in 5 bucks to @firefox? How many people would it take to fund it well enough so they don’t have to do layoffs? I get it, the FOSS community wants the “F” part but we all should contribute some for good infrastructure. And the idea that search engine payments from Google is what keeps Firefox afloat should worry us all. We need browser engine diversity if the web is going to stay open and not littered with walled gardens any more than it already is.
The thing is they don’t need a one-off donation, they need a stable revenue stream. Can’t plan for the future if the financials are uncertain or bleak…
Good news! Brave for Android now let's u use your favorite uBlock Origin Blocklists!
Under Settings > Brave Shields & privacy
Can you now add custom filterlists and edit Brave's default selection of the already avaible filterlists. Some of you now that this was possible before too (via brave://adblock) but at this time it had no UI and wasn't a official feature, now you can easily add, remove and customize fiterlists via the the settings.
@support Yesterday I saw this post https://beehaw.org/post/7776438 where it used the non-propagation of deleted posts as an example of one of the problems of the Lemmy platform. Today, this post https://lemmy.world/post/5289864 says there's "a bug in kbin where moderation tasks are not federated to other instances".. i'm confused, isn't that a problem coming from the underlying software, Lemmy? Are they shifting blame?
The issue is that kbin actions to delete/moderate a submission aren’t sent to other federated servers, increasing the moderation workloads to all instance admins.
Kbin and Lemmy are compatible in a way through the underlying protocol (ActivityPub), but on the surface they’re two entirely different codebases with their own quirks.
There are two different issues, kbin will simply not federate mod actions, while in Lemmy you need to make some steps in the right order. If you ban then purge the content a little later it will federate the ban, while if you do it the opposite way it will not federate the ban and leave the content up on other instances.
