I agree with you that Lemmy should have it (and seems like it will in v1.0), but the devs are more likely to see our feature requests if we submit them on Github instead of as random posts in different communities

and Github makes it easier to prevent duplicate submissions

Yeah, but they’d probably be better submitted as GitHub issues instead of posts here, or in this case searching for the already existing issue

The problem is just when someone in the past said “you should join <forum x>!”, you were always able to just immediately go to forum x’s signup page and sign up. But if someone hears of Lemmy, and goes to join-lemmy.org, there is no way to go to a signup page directly.

People should probably stop saying “join Lemmy”, and instead link directly to the site/instance they suggest

User should create an account on one server

Mostly this. Some people might want a few accounts but those would be hardcore users.

the password/cookie should still work even when awaiting validation, password is set before the email is sent

maybe I’m misreading what you’re saying, but we already have this, works the same way as Reddit

https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/03-votes-and-ranking.html

the Summit app does it too

Lemmy should have some sort of recommendation alhorithm.

https://quiblr.com/ is a Lemmy frontend that does this

Will Lemmy can become easy like Bluesky? Are there plans like that?

I’m not a Lemmy dev (well I’ve made a couple of small commits lol), but this type of question can be hard to answer from the inside of a project.

It would probably be easier to answer a question more like: “Do you plan to implement feature XYZ in order to be easier to use like Bluesky?”

the apps! the app support is really great for Lemmy

I like Kdenlive, but I never tried Blender. I think Kdenlive is the good middle-ground complexity for me, DaVinci was too overcomplicated for me just to make a couple of videos a year. I used to use VideoPad, which is ok, it renders faster than Kdenlive, but I think the editing process is less efficient, and it has other issues. In some ways Kdenlive is less stable (crashes more often), but it seems less likely to end up with a project file that becomes unworkable. Sometimes in VideoPad you’d end up with too much stuff and the editing process would become laggy or just cumbersome (limited channels and effects). Kdenlive is a bit more powerful without becoming more complicated.

Like, a significant issue here is the insistence people have had that up/down-votes be synchronized. People want to know what the global passive-aggressive opinion on a post or comment is, rather than the local one, which requires every single button press to be sent to each and every subscribing website. And people expect stuff to be sent out as a live stream, rather than being held back for batching, too.

I figure this could be reduced a lot if even just 1 minute worth of votes were batched together, although I don’t think the ActivityPub standard technically includes batched activities currently

if the requests are all serialized, if the ping time is like 300ms, and if each request takes like 100ms of CPU time

that means you only need 648,000 actions in queue to equal 3 days

when you consider that even upvotes/downvotes of posts/comments count as actions, I could see it happening

but the queue isn’t completely serialized anymore, so maybe this number is still a bit unbelievable (EDIT: seems like LW has not yet enabled the feature for parallel sending)

maybe it would be simple to fork this source code and form your own community

The network effect makes this extremely difficult, even with the source code, it’s basically starting from scratch again.

I’ve probably played this game for over a hundred hours. Great soundtrack too, by Alexander Brandon. I also loved the minigame hidden behind the DESTRUCT cheat code.

And it’s open source too!

I can’t believe someone else just mentioned Hover! I haven’t played it in decades lol but I did spend a lot of time on it as a kid

Sonic Robo Blast 2 is one of the best Sonic games ever!

Soldat was awesome, I loved the Rambo mode lol. That game had such good movement.

definitely Deus Ex

but also The 7th Guest lol
