As a reminder, the order of community moderators in the sidebar has direct impact on the moderator hierarchy, where a moderator listed earlier is able to remove any moderators later in the list.

A reminder that mod order does not always federate correctly, so you may need to head to LW to see it correctly.

Here’s a search I did just now. Despite trying to restrict it to the last month (“Top Month”), none of the results on the first page are within the last month.

Out of interest, what is search like on Piefed? Lemmy’s is all but useless. Even filtering by “last week” will show me two year-old posts and comments, regularly that don’t actually include the word I’m looking for.

Discussions are, arguably, their own type of OC. Like this thread as one example. That’s the kind of thing I, and I suspect @fujiwood@lemmy.world, would love to see more of.

Uh, mods? The comment that I’m replying to was very obviously not antisemitic.

Yeah pretending that the state of Israel represents all Jewish people seems kinda antisemitic to me. [You’re] Just eras[ing] Jewish people all over the world.

Is the obvious intended parsing of it.

I’ve never had that problem. Are you running it on the latest version of the YouTube client that Revanced Manager says it supports? Or trying to run it on an unsupported version of the YouTube client?

Revanced is the native YouTube app with free access to the features normally in Premium like removing pre/midroll ads and picture-in-picture, in addition to extra add-ins like Sponsorblock, Dearrow, the choice to either remove Shorts entirely or automatically play them in the regular player, etc. It also works with your YouTube account, so you can read and write to your regular playlists, view your subscriptions, etc., and any changes you make will be immediately reflected on your logged-in web browser.

Man there are way too many IoT standards. What’s the difference between these two? How do they each compare to Matter?

In much simpler terms:

Think of an IP address like a street address. 192 My Street.

There might be multiple businesses at one street address. In real life we address them with things like 1/192 My Street and 2/192 My Street, but there’s no direct parallel to that in computer networks. Instead, what we do is more like directing your letter to say “Business A c/o 192 My Street”. That’s what SNI does.

Because we have to write all of that on the outside of the envelope, everyone gets to see that we’re communicating with Business A. But what if one of the businesses at 192 My Street is highly sensitive and we’d rather people didn’t know we were communicating with them? @bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de’s proposal is basically like if you put the “Business A” part inside the envelope, so the mailman (and anyone who sees the letter on the way) only see that it’s going to 192 My Street. Then the front room at that address could open the envelope and see that the ultimate destination is Business A, and pass it along to them.

Rare Reddit w

I just took a really quick look at it, but under Importing data from Nominatim it says “-country-codes allows to filter the data to be imported by country. Set this to a comma-separated list of two-letter language codes.”

That’s a different section from the Importing data from a JSON dump section, which is where it only mentions -country-code. But even that does seem to suggest it takes “all the parameters of an import from a Nominatim database”. So it seems like either the documentation for one of them is wrong, or both are lacking (because in fact both the singular and plural work).

If you do not configure anything, then Reitti will skip Geocoding and only display Unknown Place.

Ah ok thanks. This is what I was wondering.

Two follow-ups:

Can you specify multiple COUNTRY_CODEs? (and if so, is the method

environment:
  - COUNTRY_CODE=country_one
  - COUNTRY_CODE=country_two

or

environment:
  - COUNTRY_CODE=[country_one, country_two]

or something else?)

And is this something that can seemlessly be retroactively changed? For example, if I set COUNTRY_CODE=au and it works fine for Australia, but then I move to NZ, can I add (assuming the answer to my first question is yes) or change to COUNTRY_CODE=nz and have all the NZ locations work on the already-recorded data, even if I made that change to my configuration after I had been in NZ for a few months?

Is that true even if you’re not in hybrid mode?

I don’t actually have any personally. I’m still with Google Photos for now and hadn’t decided what to switch to, with Immich, Nextcloud, and the non-open Synology Photos being the top of my list. Legitimately, what a tool like this supports could be a factor I use to help decide.

How complicated is the code interfacing with Immich? Is it a piece someone not familiar with your overall code base could relatively easily pick up and make a pull request for?

I love that it supports multiple formats for important location as well as multiple geocoders. But that makes me wonder, would it be feasible to support multiple image libraries? There’s a bunch of different FOSS photo libraries out there. I think Nextcloud is the main other one I’ve heard about ‘in the wild’, as it were. Or is there too much bespoke Immich code in there for that to be a simple plug-and-play option?

Oh interesting. I’ve just read through that link, and I was assuming that something similar to the “external only” option would have been the only way it worked. More specifically, I thought it’d just store a list of historical points and display those on an OSM overlay. But it seems like even “external only” is much more involved than that.

What happens with self-hosted Photon if you specify a country, but then also visit another country? (I assume in hybrid mode it’s as simple as "use Photon in your country, use Nominatim otherwise?)

But yeah, definitely sounds like a Pi is probably not gonna cut it. I’ll have to see if my Synology can do it, or if the weird OS restrictions Synology imposes prevent it.

Fuck yeah this is awesome! The detail of Immich integration is just the icing on top of an awesome cake!

How demanding is it on server resources? Am I likely to be able to run it on an old Raspberry Pi that’s also running a couple of other relatively light tasks? How much storage does it end up using over time? I’m probably going to try and get it running either on my Pi or my Synology NAS, though the latter has had issues with Docker containers in the past depending on the container’s dependencies…

Most of this comment was my own speculation based on the details they’ve shared publicly. The details I know of publicly are:

• The seem to be profitable. Or at least in a relatively sustainable place; they talk about profit a lot, but usually in terms of how the “profit” is split between creators. I forget, maybe the Wendover “history of Nebula” video from a while back talked more specifically about profitability?
• They’re choosing not to take outside investment. This is something the CEO, Dave Wiskus, talked about particularly with respect to the Lifetime subscriptions, describing those as their option for building up the sort of large amounts of cash that they might otherwise have gone to outside investment for, in order to fund bigger projects
• The fact that they are, quite visibly, expanding their range of content

The rest was me speculating about how the business model would seem to work based on those factors plus my limited, layperson’s, understanding of their industry.

I will check these out

FWIW the specific channels I recommended were mostly based on stalking your user profile and grabbing a couple I thought might interest you based on that. But I didn’t have much to go on from your Lemmy history specifically. They weren’t necessarily the first ones I’d recommend to someone in the general public, or to someone whose interests I knew better.

if only I could figure out how to use peertube

From my experience trying Peertube, its biggest problem for now is just…the server infrastructure of existing instances isn’t very good. I got really bad buffering. Maybe better server-side encoding could have helped with that. Maybe they need stronger server hardware with better outbound network connections. Maybe I just need to find a more locally-hosted instance to me. Maybe it’s something else. But the user experience was really not good. Which is a shame. As nice as Nebula’s sort of worker-owned co-op model is, true federated video would be really nice for those of us not privileged enough to become a member of the exclusive club. YouTube being basically the only real option really sucks, and I’m sick of alternative options like Gfycat dying off and losing all their content.

From everything I’ve heard, they’re already profitable, and are explicitly choosing only to grow in a sustainable way, without taking on outside investment which could force them into enshittifying down the line. With a relative lack of need to show extreme growth, and a lack of reliance on outside factors like advertising (being subscription-based), the only major risk that I can see for them long-term is user churn. Which is definitely a risk, but with the ever-creeping growth of the range of content they have and (at least for now) an attitude of being customer-friendly, churn seems a relatively low risk.

As far as I can see, at worst, the platform dies if the YouTube channels of the people on the platform die because of the YouTube algorithm, and they get bad churn (with fewer new subscribers because of the aforementioned dead YouTube channels at the top of the funnel), and they don’t get new more successful channels on before that happens. A scenario that’s far from unlikely, but which I would describe as “catastrophic, whether or not Nebula exists today”, so its existence for now as a hedge against more likely bad scenarios is still worthwhile.
