Why not a PWA?

Can access this via Duck AI, and compare to other models on the fly.

Oh.... I thought it meant that those cookie banners were 'false consent' and therefore render the data collected to be illegal?

Please provide more info - I would like to learn more about this subject!

That is a great find. Thank you!

It would be cool if there was an operator that would force the search into Lemmy content. Are they called bangs? Like starting with !r

noted, and you're right.

I actually mis-applied that term in my post. I've been trying to learn about tech, and self hosting in particular, along this journey. I found that 'normies' is the term that tech-savvy people apply to people who don't know about tech - i.e. me! - and I started using it. In the sense of "these install instructions will never work with normies".

In this context I shouldn't have used it to refer to people who do not care about data privacy. I'll edit my post.

Thank you for pointing that out!

Anyone know if you can have a separate HTML file for the navbar and link to it from all the page files?

Updating the navbar in each page to ensure consistency is a pain!

According to Ray Dalio, you're right - that is what it will take: revolution or a major war https://youtu.be/BB2r_eOjsPw

Hi there fediverse people!

I'm starting a non-profit to help people get away from big tech and use alternatives. Besides providing info via a website we'll put on events, and we're also planning to start a certification service so companies can prove they don't support the surveillance business model.

Does anyone know of any grant funding, either UK or EU, that might help with this?

Hey dude, I'm interested in an EPUB copy. And I'll share it with others who will benefit.

How about this for an alt email: [email protected] πŸ˜‚

  1. Billionaire Koch votes for dangerous narcissistic clown with terrible business sense
  2. Clown is elected so Billionaire Koch gets clown using terrible business sense to wreck global economy
  3. As a result, billionaire Koch loses a butt ton of money in the stock market

Thank you that is useful to have that explanation here. I had no idea it works like that!

I've not seen this type of logging in issue within the Mastodon 'world' because no one's ever 'sent me a link from another instance and then I tried to log on from that link' πŸ˜‚. I just tried it on an inprivate browser window and of course it's the same as what I found here with Lemmy - as you described. With Mastodon I'm on the .social instance and I can see and interact with posts from any other instance - but after your explanation I realise that's because the content was alwasy served up from within the instance.

[I agree that with ActivityPub we certainly cannot expect to log in with the same handle *between *services (i.e. use your Mastodon handle to log in to Lemmy). Although that would be cool. Persistent IDs across the fediverse would be the dream imho (like Nostr does it).]

I've joined Lemmy.ml. Someone sent me a link to a video posted on Feddit.nl - I thought I could log in and upvote/comment using my Lemmy.ml credentials. Wrong!

Why is this? Sorry for my ignorance, I'm relatively new to the fediverse. But I thought that they were all federated so you can interact with all instances??!
