Yeah - in article, it reads the resolution of data is significantly higher.

*Sorta. ICANN has a special relationship with ccTLDs. Registries of gtlds can't put an A record at the root tld.

Don't forget countries. A few, I don't have a list, but including .ai, .pn, are in full control of their domains and do it all on their own infra.

The Fediverse is pretty radical. I'm an atheist also, an exmormon, and I think this might just be a misunderstanding.
The rule, "no LGBTQ+ content," I don't think is saying "no gay people." I am pretty sure it is just asking to avoid the topic, to prevent bigoted discussion from happening.
As fair or not as you want it to be, LGBTQ+ is a controversial topic for religious people, and I think it's fair to just put a pin in that discussion in your community. But what do I know?

Mostly I just hate the dialogue that people think WE are akin to a language model, where prompts go in and actions come out... it's a gross misrepresentation of the human brain, and we don't even know much of how it works, but we do know we don't spit outputs based solely on inputs.

I've seen the opposite. A few days into the blackout, I saw someone post this meme about dictatorships where they (literally) put a picture of Spez right next to Tiananmen Square

Zorin seems good. I unfortunately had crashing issues with it, but that was a long time ago (a few years, but I think it was in beta back then).

Interesting, but probably harmless if it's one-shot. In general, it seems like a bad idea. Not any better or worse than other recommendations systems. Mozilla should look into FHE.

Mint has always been my go-to grandma-friendly system. I remember using it when I was in my single-digit years. Most intuitive operating system ever. :)

Radical political ideologists love the Fediverse and always have, be it anarchosocialists or confederates. Not sure why. I just want shitposts and tech stuff.

Recently, especially with feddit.de, there are a lot of posts in languages that are not English. This is great for adoption!, but unfortunately I have no idea what the posts are about because I don't speak German. I couldn't find a setting to hide posts in other languages either!

To make my feed better for myself, I wrote a simple user script which removes any posts that are tagged anything other than EN/ES (the two languages I can speak.

Update the script to your preferences (make sure to @match your instance), and load it up in TamperMonkey!

Here you go:

// ==UserScript==
// @name         Kbin: delete articles in other languages
// @namespace    http://tampermonkey.net/
// @version      0.1
// @description  Auto-delete posts in languages you do not speak.
// @author       luphoria (https://kbin.social/u/trent)
// @match        https://kbin.social/*
// @icon         https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?sz=64&domain=kbin.social
// @grant        none
// ==/UserScript==

(function() {
  'use strict';
  const allowedLangs = ["en"]; // <-- Edit this to all of the languages you can speak / want to see in your feed. Format: ["lang", "lang", "lang"]

  let deleteUnwantedPosts = () => {
    const postTags = document.getElementsByClassName("kbin-bg");

    for (let i = 0; i < postTags.length; i++) {
      let postTag = postTags[i];
      if (postTag && postTag.textContent && postTag.textContent !== "OC" && !allowedLangs.includes(postTag.textContent)) { // OC tags are the only elements (i know of) with the same class.
        // Delete element's parent's parent's parent
        if (postTag.parentElement.children[0].textContent) {
          console.log(`Removing post labeled \`${postTag.textContent}\`: "${postTag.parentElement.children[0].textContent}"`);
          postTag.parentElement.parentElement.parentElement.remove();
        }
      }
    }
  }
  deleteUnwantedPosts(); // on load

  // for continuous feeds
  let observeDOMChanges = () => {
    const observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutationsList) {
      deleteUnwantedPosts();
    });
    observer.observe(document.body, { childList: true, subtree: true });
  }
  observeDOMChanges();
})();

Again - sorry if this is a repost - but it seems like /u/ernest is listed as the owner of every single magazine that isn't on Kbin.
I'm pretty sure he's the sole moderator on Kbin for those instances; but the "owner" designation is misleading?

Notifications (kbin.social)
submitted 1 year ago by trent@kbin.social to c/kbinMeta@kbin.social

Sorry if this is a repost, but I don't seem to be recieving notifications from any interactions with my post.

Kbin definitely could (should, IMO) adopt a Reddit-like notification system. Notify for new comments until there are already X comments, then notify every 10 comments etc. Notify for X amount of post votes. Etc.

On this note, will there also be notifications going to email, or RSS feeds per user?
