I’ve been happily using lxqt for 6+ months. Their matrix channel is very alive and knowledgeable.

How would people feel about a feature that lets them filter their feed by post type? You could choose not to see any videos or any images, etc.

It’s a good thing piefed already has this functionality, then.

Oh, this is about the login wall?

lol that was just a temporary measure to fend off the scrapers. They’ve been really bad the last couple of weeks, especially.

I’m testing out a custom-built Anubis now, that should mean we can do without a login wall.

It doesn’t limit that 10% minority, it limits the 0.02% minority. And that 0.02% were not the ones making posts the most, they were voting the most.

Please see the numbers at https://piefed.social/c/fediverse@piefed.social/p/2190040/who-decides-what-you-see-on-the-fediverse-a-look-at-voting-patterns

In this graph we see CPU usage (green line) and network activity (orange line) for the last month. The change was introduced around 3rd of July. Visible on the far left of the graph is a few days of what it used to be like.

Multiple people have recommended https://yr.no/ to me recently. It’s Norwegian but effective everywhere.

I’m starting to think we need a climate disasters comm, there’s lots of them.

In what way?

I love that we have so many features that I’m losing track of them all :D

That sounds plausible but is in direct contradiction to the contents of the article.

No, you’d export a CSV of who you follow out of Mastodon, and then upload that into PieFed. Your PieFed account will then follow all the same people you were following on Mastodon.

One day it’d be nice to support Mastdon’s account migration functionality so you can do a proper move which automatically gets all your old followers to follow your PieFed account but that’s a long way off.

Ah yep if it’s the low bandwidth mode then the only way to get out of it is log out and then back in.

It could be compact mode.

Also PieFed detects if you’re using a device running on a battery and switches to a low power mode if so, which mostly means youtube videos are not loaded.

Yeah, both!

Any time you post in a community all your Mastodon followers already receive your post and can comment on it.

I’m going to try putting it into the same view and see how it goes. It might be that the amount of votes Lemmy posts get vs the number of likes Mastodon posts get is so different that the ranking system that Hot/Scaled uses doesn’t make sense… Only one way to find out!

In the latest release I’ve started to go down a path towards proper Mastodon integration. So I’m looking to bust out of the threadiverse and be able to discard my Mastodon account because PieFed will be just as good at showing me Mastodon toots as it is Lemmy posts.

There are 20x more Mastodon users than threadiverse users so this could be a step-change for the project.

Eventually this ends with PieFed fulfilling the promise that the fediverse has for so long never really lived up to - that you can use one platform and access all the content from all the other platforms. But that might be the chapter after next.

Technically, 4 GB is supposed to be enough. https://support.image-line.com/action/knowledgebase?ans=82

But: https://www.reddit.com/r/FL_Studio/comments/14kdv0d/is_8gb_ram_enough_to_run_fl_studios/

Your CPU has only 2 cores. It’s probably the CPU holding you back more than the RAM. If you open up system monitor while working on a large project you’ll be able to see which maxes out first.

Not currently.

PieFed had that feature for about a day but the developer who I copied the code from was unhappy about me doing that so I removed it.

I’ll re-code it from scratch one day.

Yeah, both. Like in Mastodon where there is a home timeline showing stuff from people you follow AND a feed containing everything your instance has received.
