I noticed this beloved feature was removed in 2.0 that would show you how many users visited a community in the last day, week, 6 months.

I really missed this feature as it has encouraged me to keep posting as it would prove that my content was making the rounds around the threadverse. Now one must open the website to see it.

World on warcraft on Linux (self.worldofwarcraft)

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/27780029

Hello everybody! I want to escape Microsoft and windows, and I am looking for a Linux distro. I have some experience with Unix and a very old Ubuntu distro. But that's quite some years ago. I am looking for a Linux distribution where i can play World of Warcraft on. I mainly use Nvidia graphics (RTX 3070).

I have found some distributions that are supposed to be good for gaming. I suppose, as i am still a Linux Noob, I am also looking for a distribution which is easy to get into. Especially for an older gamer ;)

I came with these distro's myself. What does the Linux community say?

Good on you for making this as we need the code to last forever. I can’t count the number of times proprietary projects were just thrown away ei Apollo and Bean.

Lauss sounds perfect to perfect to me.

Loose, free and unimpeded from binary gender norms looks like an accurate description.

Can a single instance handle a community of 100k members? Can this one? What's the limit?

The theoretical limit depends on the server hardware behind the instance.

There's an incredible amount of hate and chasers on reddit, and if you had to rely on manual moderation I don't think anyone could cope. You may not be seeing it here because Lemmy is smaller, not as well know, and appears to be a bit harder to use and keeps out the idiots. The sub moderation is part of it, with lots of automated filtering (which is why the people from Lemmy were having trouble posting in the sub), but the site also keeps them suppressed. When it didn't it was really bad.

The admins of Blahaj.Zone are strict with those kinds of messed up individuals. Lemmy instances often defederate from the troll farms like Hexbear for example. It’s a lot harder for trolls and chasers to organize in this bloc of instances for example as the mods/admins are very on top of things. They use the tool fediseer to check out if an instance is trustworthy enough for their users/communities to interact with ours.

I agree with you that the moderating tools on Lemmy could be better but as more people switch to this platform the higher the demand would be for developers to upgrade the tools to be more robust. They have come a long way from 2023.

When Reddit killed almost all the third-party apps a lot of moderating and accessibility features were forever lost due to the company’s decision to charge outrageous fees for api access but not only that but they adamantly refused to work with developers who extended an hand to work out a deal within the new limits.

Admins, developers and mods are about to get pinged way more!

I love this! The whole family ship is switching to Linux!

I mean California setting up an instance where they have full control over the communications to keep the server data within the state and to reduce corporate censorship of updates from the emergency services. The cities could also use it.

They could call it Cali.Social.
