Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Trump: 'A Lot of People Are Saying Maybe We'd Like a Dictator'English103·29 days agoI mean, yeah, they are. He said before the election that he would be a dictator and the MAGA crowd was all like “yup, totally necessary, we’re all for it.”
Probably just the timing. Mbin was forked from Kbin after the majority of newcomers from Reddit settled on Lemmy over Kbin. Because Kbin was pretty much the one-man show with an unreliable flagship instance during the initial big wave of users coming over.
Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Trump administration says federal employees can encourage co-workers to "re-think" their religious beliefsEnglish44·2 months agoThat’s pretty much the entire operating model of the Satanic Temple. Either you’re getting a Baphomet statue to go with it, or you’re losing that Jesus one.

Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Mastodon is improving profiles and getting ready for quote postsEnglish61·3 months agoThis is how it works on BlueSky. And you can detach your original post from someone else’s quote post of it after-the-fact.
Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Which instances on any platform will show bridgyfed accounts?English8·3 months agoPresumably any ActivityPub platform that can search users globally and any instance that doesn’t block the bridgy domain/instance.

Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Democrats eye a villain-to-ally arc for Elon MuskEnglish2·4 months agoit shouldn’t be, but with our first past the post voting and barriers to 3rd party ballot access, it kind is.
Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL about thought-terminating clichésEnglish18·4 months agoTrump said it about COVID deaths during an interview in April 2020.
Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•This graph but with fediverse apps?English5·4 months agoIt is pucture-based, but the is more of grouping images clipped from websites (you can upload your own images, too).
Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the country that eats the most pizza per capita is Norway.English2·4 months agoThis tracks. Two of my great-grandfathers were Norwegian, and one of my grandmothers was Italian. I love pizza.
Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Lemmy.one will be shutting downEnglish17·4 months agoIt originally set out to be just an account-hosting instance, at a time when the major instances with the big communities would be going down as usage surged from people leaving Reddit. This way it was more responsive and reliably online. They have <10 communities hosted on the instance.

Baron Von J@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Is it possible to browse a lemmy community images from pixelfed?English6·6 months agoI just tried searching for @pics@lemmy.world on pixelfed.social and it was not found. However I can find myself when I search for @baronvonj@lemmy.world on pixelfed.social. So seems like you can’t.
The official apps are all open source (GPL-3.0, https://github.com/ProtonDriveApps), so even though a formal API isn’t documented it is derivable from the 4 available clients. This is how rclone added support for Proton Drive. So there isn’t really anything stopping GNOME or KDE from supporting it.
that’s a good point, too. they would have that moderation control over an official lemmy community, too. But obviously not on any unofficial communities.
Yes but that’s not supported by Google. If your going to ding Proton Drive for not having a natove Linux client then you shouldn’t tout Google Drive as a competitor who does, as they don’t. You’re giving Google Drive a free pass because of a third party. Google and Proton are the same on this feature and you should disparage both services equally as a result.
Gaetz … paid to look like that?
