Some of the tools I’ve created:

Huh interesting point. I suppose my view of it was closer to “Should I eat X? Probably not, NutriScore says it’s bad” and that’s where my disagreement came from. Your logic actually gives it much more sense.
Wonder how many people drew the same conclusions as me when looking at it for the first time. First psichological impact is important.
English because even though I can understand the post, my French is not nearly good enough to articulate this point
I’m Italian, as you might now we are the only big EU country to have opposed Nutri-Score thus far.
This summer I spent my holidays in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region and while shopping there I got the chance of interacting firsthand with the score, as someone not used to it.
In many occasions looking at the score and then at the ingredient list made very little sense, in particular some decently healthy food was often marked with harsh scores for reasons I couldn’t quite understand. An example of this I remember quite well was a bottle of fruit juice that had a score of D. Sure, it probably has lots of sugar, but it also contained decent quantities of fruits. I thought that was supposed to be a good thing.
I don’t think this score is the way to go, honestly. I’m a big fan of the work the EU is doing in terms of food safety but this just isn’t the right way to go in my opinion. The indicator is way too simplistic and while the algorithm behind it is pretty clear, sometimes you end up with weird results that to me make very little sense.
Oh no sorry I worded that incorrectly lol. I meant “Can someone translate this from [the language of] snowflakes to English?”
I’m genuinely confused by what might cause one to get offended by this. Can anyone translate snowflake to English for me?
For real. Small instances ftw. Glad you enjoy my tool. Investigating blocked communities might be a feature for a future upgrade, thanks for the idea.
I haven’t followed it thoroughly as I’m not particularly interested with the hexbear content, I think they opened federation (but only on allowlist) but as soon as they did so many of the big instances said “fuck no” and immediately defederated them. This includes lemmy.world, feddit.de, beehaw.org, lemmy.ca … list goes on.
What’s really a problem is whitelisting.
Agreed. Fortunately very few instances rely on that. The only decently big one is hexbear.net, the second biggest both of our instances are barred from has 41 active users and all the others have only a single digit of active users. Not that big of a loss.
Data for your instance: https://defed.xyz/check/eviltoast.org
That’s a fair concern. You can check the data for yourself on the awesome-lemmy-instances repository; alternatively I have made this tool to make the search more interactive and user friendly: defed.xyz.
Short answer to your question is: 410 is a lot. They are the second instance for number of defeds, only beaten by feddit.dk. Most big instances tend to have between 30 and 50 blocks, with the notable exception of sh.itjust.works which has only 5.
To give credit where credit is due, few of the instances blocked by beehaw actually run Lemmy and even fewer are active (2 or more monthly active users). This doesn’t change the fact that it’s a BIG number.
edit: pinging @Cube6392@beehaw.org as this partially answers their question.
I feel like they are near the Orange LibLeft quadrant: a liberal that actually ends up behaving in a somewhat authoritarian manner in enforcing their beliefs onto others for the sake of safety, diversity and so on.
Both beehaw and their admins are great and at the end of the day the beauty of the fediverse is that everyone can run their instance as they please. I just wish there was another way to fix this sort of probems without having to block 5k+ people from accessing your website.
I am gonna give a hot-take, but we need more conservative on the fediverse
100% agree. And no, this doesn’t mean Trump supporters. In fact it doesn’t even mean anything close to the American right. Other countries have reasonable and functioning centre-right parties and I’d love to have something like that on Lemmy.
It’s up now. Not terribly active, unfortunately, but I love that someone had the dedication of creating one. And, as I said the meme, their theme is lovely.
I agree. I think relying too heavily on blocklists can be a detriment to the growth and decentralization of the Fediverse. Who even decides what ends up on them? Maybe you pass through the crossair of whoever handles that while they’re having a bad day and boom, you’re barred out of 2/3 of all the content.
Smartphone: I’ve just said goodbye to my Honor phone after 5/6 years of service (can’t remember how many precisely). Incredible lifespan for its price.
However repairability could be great. I’ve changed its battery once and screen a couple times, by the end of it the frame was about to break from all the times I had opened it.
@infamousbelgian@waste-of.space @Mane25@feddit.uk both changes have been pushed and deployed, thank you for your feedback.
Noted, adding a forced .toLowerCase()
. I’m implementing all of the feedback I’ve received thus far right now.
Uh yeah that is true. This was a one afternoon project, so I kinda threw the frontend together without thinking too much of it. I guess truncating the protocol instead of relying on the users doing it makes sense.
Oh I forgot about this community. Thank you for spreading the word.
I think OP mostly views left wing content and is outraged by having that same content (albeit with a right wing twist) suggested to them.
I sincerely hope it isn’t just a “right bad” circlejerk.
What’s funny is that this is exactly what I feel like any time I have to use Linux.
Si nous regardons le Poll of Polls par Politico il est clair que le EPP on sera le premier parti, donc si le partie la supporte, elle obtiendra probablement son deuxième mandat.
Personnellement ça ne me dérangerait pas. Je pense qui von der Leyen a fait du bon travail a garder la pertinence de l’Europe dans l’echelle mondiale. En outre, il serait probablement utile d’avoir une continuité au sein de l’executif de l’UE.
