Meta trying to blame and put responsibility on someone else? That's a first 🙃

My mom said she would really like it if I got a car in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 49 points 9 months ago (7 children)

Hey, we have 5 cars, let's buy a sixth one! Wow...

But also, I hate the "you need to buy a car so that I can use it" approach so f-ing much...

Meta offering two options. Either buy addfree experience or accept targeted ads in c/[email protected]

The issue with Friendica, compared to Lemmy/Mastodon/etc, is that you'd need your friends and communities to also move to Friendica, which hardly happens

For some reason I expected this to be a pun or a dad joke...

Yeah, clock app crashing is an interesting one... 🤔

Wasn't YouTube unrelated to Google at first?

SUMO alternative for Windows in c/[email protected]

I believe (might be wrong!) there was literally one guy working on it so anything in their personal situation could be the reason

It's hard enough to find a good alternative, let alone a FOSS one... So sad to see KC and SUMO go...

Gotcha, that works for me, thanks a lot! Just to make sure - I also don't need any dog insurance, right?

I'm planning a week-long stay in Hamburg next year. I want to come with my dog. I know the rules with pet passport, rabies vaccination etc, but I also found something about a Hamburg Dog Registry and couldn't really tell the registration and insurance rules also apply to tourists traveling with dogs?

Someone should then probably let them know 🤷

I think it just auto-discovers federated instances and randomly shows them on the page unless explicitly disabled...

Suggestions for java dev wannabe? (programming.dev)

submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I'm a web (frontend) developer with 7+ years of experience. I want to become a full stack developer and want to get to know the business side of java. Already know the language and can easily write small CLI or GUI apps (mostly thanks to knowledge of other languages) but have no experience at all with anything business-related. What libraries/solutions would you recommend to me to learn (DB libs, queueing, http server, sockets, etc, anything else)?

Feature suggestion: duplicate posts handling (programming.dev)

Hello LJDawson, let me start with saying how happy I am to have Sync back :)

The one issue I have with Lemmy is duplicated posts between different communities (see screenshot). Posts usually have same title, author and link, yet differ in community/server they are posted to. It would be great to be able to make the appear as one item on the feed with some note below that links to both instances' posts, or something like that basically to make them not appear twice or thrice one under another.
