14·2 months agoSounds like Patreon with extra steps…
I hit them up in our internal chat! Thanks for the heads up!
Searching the Apple app store for “lemmy” only turned up these.
Given the performance, that does not surprise me!
App does say it was last updated 7 months ago, but I see comments saying it’s abandoned.
Weird, I use Boost all the time. Did you turn on 2FA or something? Maybe try removing and re-adding your account?
Noted! I wasn’t really testing configurations, just “out of the box” functionality.
@[email protected] iOS testing, not sure how you score these so I just listed out the broken stuff.
Arctic - Link opens in App. Headings fail, images fail, everything else looks fine.
Avelon - Link opens in browser, not app. Manually went to test post. Bold+Italic fails (Italic works, not Bold). Table fails. Horizontal Rule fails. Spoiler fails. Everything else looks good.
Bean - Last updated 7 months ago, comments on the app say it’s abandoned. Link opens in browser, not app. Manually went to test post. Text formatting block fails so hard, it’s not even visible(!) Heading fails. Code Block fails, Inline Code fails. Links and Image work, but not inline, only at the bottom of the post. Table fails. Horizontal rule fails.
CheeseBot - Did not test. $2.99, no free version.
Lemmios - Link opens in app. Everything looks and works great EXCEPT Spoilers.
Mlem - Link opens in browser, not app. Manually went to test post. As with Lemmios, everything looks and works great EXCEPT spoilers.
Remmel - Instant fail. No development in 2 years, unable to even add an instance or an account. Non-starter.
Thunder - Hard to test. Lots of lag for some reason. Link opens in browser, not app. Manually went to test post. That being said, EVERYTHING worked. The lag may have been because I had just linked my account. Testing everything above, then coming back to Thunder, I found it fast and responsive.
Voyager - Link opens in app. EVERYTHING worked. No notes.
So, ranking them:
Voyager - EVERYTHING worked. No notes.
Thunder - Everything worked, but laggy to start with when using a year old account with lots of data. Once it caught up, everything was fine. Would probably be great with a new account.
Lemmios - Link opens in app by default. Spoilers don’t work.
Mlem - Link opens in browser by default but is user configurable. Spoilers don’t work.
Arctic - A few minor failures.
Avelon - A few more failures than Arctic.
Bean - Hey, it works better than Remmel. Probably abandoned.
Remmel - Instant fail.
CheeseBot - Did not test. $2.99, no free version.
On it. I found 8 apps in the App store. I’ll PM you.
Arctic, Avelon, Bean, Lemmios, Mlem, Remmel, Thunder, Voyager.
There’s a 9th, CheeseBot, but it’s $2.99 and all the others are free.
I have an iOS device and am happy to repeat your methodology! Did you have a test thread or something with all the markdowns?
General consensus seems to be that, yes, .ml is problematic, but also it’s not going anywhere due to being the OG lemmy. Too many vital communities are there.
I’ll share this with the lemmy.world admins, but I believe hexbear at a minimum is already defederated. .ml is not. Not sure on lemmygrad.
It took reddit a long time to come up with “Multis” where you put whatever themed channels under one group.
I don’t see why it couldn’t be done here.
I do kind of miss the private clubs. I had worked my way up through 100K, 150K, 200K and 300K karma clubs before I bailed and came here.
Centennial Club was just the best. It was like Century Club, but way nicer!
Generally, and I can only speak for myself, but GENERALLY, the way it works is someone takes offense at your comment and reports it.
That report goes to the mods of that community along with the Admins of your instance, in your case programming.dev.
Any action taken by the mods or admins is then recorded in the modlog.
In your case, you got a 3 day ban:
https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&userId=7110660
“Rule 1 - No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia. Code of Conduct.”
And, yeah, your comment hits that rule. I would have removed it from my communities as well.
Ban-worthy? Not for a single comment for ME at least. If it looked like you were engaging in a pattern of behavior or trolling, then yeah, that’s a ban.
I have a SUSPICION… but let me confirm…
Yeah… here’s the deal, mods are human and make mistakes. There are a couple of us who mod both Politics and World News and it gets confusing some times.
For example, both groups have a “Civility” rule, but one of them it’s rule 3 and the other it’s rule 5.
Lord knows I’ve done the whole:
“Removed, Rule 5 - keep it civil.”
Followed by “WTF, rule 5 isn’t ‘civility’!”
I’ve taken now to having multiple tabs open and going “Wait, which community is this again?”
In THIS case, World News has this rule:
“Recent (Past 30 Days)”
Which makes sense for a News community, if it aint “New”, it’s not “News”. :)
Politics doesn’t have that same restriction. It would probably be a good idea to add it, things are going to move fast in an election year.
Unfortunately, now, two weeks later, it doesn’t look like it will let me restore it, it says post not found.
But if you ever have a question as to why something got removed, feel free to reach out to the mods and we will get to the bottom of it.
Edit I was able to access and restore the post through slightly different means. Not that it will be that effective since it was from 2 weeks ago and is long since off the front page.
2·7 months agoJust be aware, it’s a lot THINNER than balsamic. Pours like wine.
Other than the cheese, I’d eat the hell out of those…
If you like balsamic, let me introduce you to a freaking GAME CHANGER.
It’s called “Saba” and it’s an ANCIENT condiment, going back to old Rome.

There are other brands, but Leonardi is my favorite.

Little balsamic drizzle too?
I think smarter people than me will have to figure it out and even then it’s going to be a war of escalation. Ban the bots, build better bots, back and forth back and forth.
Some news sites had an interesting take on comments sections. Before you could comment on an article, you had to correctly answer a 5 question quiz proving you actually read it.
But AI can do that now too.
