Now the climate crisis is self-evident, a common argument by those who STILL defend polluters is that “NZ is too small to make a difference, and so shouldn’t have to stop intensive dairy farming or driving Ford rangers to school in Auckland”

Rod Carr destroys it in this mic-drop moment.

National wouldn't have done this. Luxon is a evangelical.

This isn't the end of reddit's enshittification process. They're just getting started.

I tried last week and gave up as the docs were no good. But since then they've been updated and are now quite comprehensive!

Have you looked at this? https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/wiki#admin-guide

I no longer care if the blackouts change reddit or not. Viva la fediverse!

Misleading headline.

Maximum penalties are only used for the worst possible cases. As far as "fraud" goes, this seems super tame.

Ubuntu or Mint are among the most noob-friendly.

But probably the biggest impact will be whether you go with Gnome or KDE. KDE is more Windows-like so could be a softer landing.

I've read a lot of stories where installing Linux resulted in less support calls, not more. It depends on how ambitious the user is - if they're mostly just staying in their lane and browsing the web it should be rock solid.

I made this website to crawl and display Lemmy instances since the existing ones were lacking certain filtering and search options.

I have licensed it as MIT and the code is on https://github.com/tgxn/lemmy-explorer

Let me know if there's any issues, and create a GitHub issue if you want some features :D

Agreed.

This doesn't need to be hard - there are plenty of boilerplate "code of conduct" documents for online communities which can be copied or used as a starting point. e.g. https://mycrowd.ca/about

There is only one admin and it is also the only kbin developer.

Kbin is not ready, I'm sad to say.

Install this User Style (requires a browser extension) to make Lemmy look better.

I just whipped this up in a few minutes so there is more to do but whatever. Enjoy.

We cannot have a good-faith discussion with nazis (or tankies), that's a losing proposition from the outset. We do not need to have a discussion about why the N word is a beyond the pale. We do not need to have a discussion about why genocide denial is wrong. Doing so just gives those ideas a platform.

The only response to those people that saves moderation energy for more productive activities is the ban hammer. Cut it off at the source.

You can put that url into the search (magnifying glass in the top right) and then you'll be able to view that post within your instance.

But there's something even better - if you put "!asklemmy@lemmy.ml" into the search then you'll see a bunch of posts appear from that community.

Just above the list of search results is a link saying " asklemmy@lemmy.ml - 29 subscribers". It is not very obvious or highlighted in any way. Lemmy should fix this.

Click on that and the contents of that community will be displayed - crucially, it'll be displayed by your instance. You haven't gone to lemmy.ml, you're still on your home instance (check the address bar of your browser).

In the top right there is a nice big "Subscribe" button. Click it.
