I've been looking into anthotypes recently and thought they were pretty interesting.

Then I started to wonder if it was possible to make an anthotype that could display multiple colors (like a colored photograph).

I came across this post and thought it was like the reverse of a regular anthotype.

Which made me wonder if you could use the same process to create a colored picture?

I was thinking if you took plants that produce pigments across the color spectrum and mixed them together it could make the coating black.

Then when the light hits the paper it removes the pigments from the other colors on the spectrum only leaving the color that was hit in that space eventually creating a colored picture.

I haven't had the chance to try this yet and I am not really knowledgeable about photography, but would this work?

Map of 2000+ lemmy communities (danterious.codeberg.page)

This is my first try at creating a map of lemmy. I based it on the overlap of commentors that visited certain communities.

I only used communities that were on the top 35 active instances for the past month and limited the comments to go back to a maximum of August 1 2024 (sometimes shorter if I got an invalid response.)

I scaled it so it was based on percentage of comments made by a commentor in that community.

Here is the code for the crawler and data that was used to make the map:

Instead of focusing of creating good algorithms to push certain content to users why don't we focus on creating a good map that allows users to find the kind of content they want more easily?

I found this website that created a map of reddit with different countries for different topics and I thought it would translate to lemmy because instances sort of do this already really well.

Good that threads.net is in top 50 but I would've liked to see it higher. Right now it is at 39th place.

Edit: Also what is the source for the picture?

I guess we are going to be in for more SEO spam than usual if this document is accurate. But I think its good that we are finally going to get a better understanding how Google manipulates people with the algorithm.

So a win-lose situation.

Original article if anyone wants to read it: https://www.axios.com/2024/05/20/red-lobster-bankruptcy-filed

Also we should post the source along with the picture more often.

@onlinepersona@programming.dev and @CosmicCleric@lemmy.world should be able to give their perspectives.

[-] Danterious@lemmy.dbzer0.com 38 points 7 months ago

I think it is part of a long term strategy.

They saw all the negative feedback that was given when the first announcement came and there were a lot of users saying its not so bad or that we should give them a chance then.

Eventually everything became quiet and things moved on now there is a steady rise of pro Meta comments again and this time it will lead to a less violent reaction because it has already happened once before.

Rinse and repeat until they become the norm.

When you check the mod logs and filter by mod you can see that it came from Mr. Kaplan which is a lemmy.world admin.

So yes it was a lemmy.world decision. The question is whether or not this admin was a lone actor.

[-] Danterious@lemmy.dbzer0.com 46 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

The part that annoys me is that this was done silently even though last time they said they would ask their users. Hopefully it was just an admin that didn't get the last memo.

Edit: the community -> their users

Have you seen human rating rituals?

[-] Danterious@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 8 months ago

That and being direct with someone when asking to be in a relationship.

[-] Danterious@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 9 months ago

What annoys me about this is that it implicitly says that if you have more money you deserve to be safer.

After many hours of talks, it became clear that our overall goal could be achieved outside of Lemmy/ActivityPub.

Right now, we feel that Lemmy and ActivityPub have downsides that are limiting us from achieving that goal.

I have two questions.

  1. What are your long-term goals for your platform?

  2. What are the downsides to Lemmy/ActivityPub stopping you from reaching those goals?

Also to answer the main question I'd like for it to stay but at the same time, the last time I checked Beehaw had around 700-ish Monthly active users. That means there probably wouldn't be that much of an impact on the general discourse of Lemmy more broadly.

That seems like enough to sustain a pretty big community on a private server even if about half of you left. So if you guys do decide to leave I wish you the best.
