I’m pretty sure the LW admins explained why they didn’t upgrade to 0.19.5 and that they were waiting for 0.19.6.

Are you implying that world won’t update? You’d be wrong.

99.9% / 0% / 0.1%

The upcoming v20.0 lemmy release should fix remote moderators not receiving almost all of the reports.

Then I’ll be able to moderate !asklemmy@lemmy.world actively from my programmings.dev account and finally abandon this account for the time being.

Using ASCII in URLs is simple and is less error prone than “supporting” unicode via percent encoding. It is also just a convention to use ASCII for usernames in many platforms. ASCII is also supported out of the box in major OSes while some unicode characters might not. What about impersonation? And what about people trying to type in the username of someone that uses unicode? It is not logical to use unicode in this case.

Because URLs are usually in ASCII. That was a standard. Check RFC 1738 and 3986. Now, you can use percent encoding, but why use that. It just complicates things.

You won’t get non latin usernames anytime soon. But you can change the display name using non latin charactets

I never block anyone or any instance. I simply ignore them. I also use the subscribed feed, so what most of the people say about hexbear, lemmygrad, etc. content filling their feed also does not affect me.

That’s what uBlock Origin planned to do if YouTube ever decided to etch ads into the video stream itself.

I was just given a computer with unrestricted internet access and learnt it that way. Of course, the internet being unrestricted made me visit some questionable and illegal websites. Including CP and some hardcore NSFL using the tor browser. But I don’t regret it (other than the last points).

Looks like a fun community, I’ll join.

Welp, I haven’t seen anyone learn Swift other than for Apple stuff these days. So I wonder how many can actually contribute to the code. It’s also made by Apple, so yeah. It would have been more performant and secure (both of which are pretty important in a browser) if it was written in a more low level language. For example Rust.

It’s nice and all but usage of Swift is kind of not great.

Surprised that happened. Very rare to see that these days.

Long brainstorming sessions on how to implement my next Lemmy bot.

If that were to happen, the receiving end wouldn’t know who sent which vote, thus making spamming extremely easy.

what the fuck

Block? Nope, robots.txt does not block the bots. It’s just a text file that says: “Hey robot X, please do not crawl my website. Thanks :>”
