Lemmyvision 3 - Vote for your favourite songs! by Ategon in c/lemmyvision@jlai.lu

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Yeah any playlists on platforms are unfortunately going to be missing the p.d entry since it was made for a game jam and doesn't exist outside of it atm due to the composer not being well known

Youtube I think is the only thing that has 12/13 of the entries (apart from the "playlist" just being links to things like mine is in the post)

Community table currently has issues. Should be fixed once theres time to do more database maintenance again but for now the posts can be accessed in the main feeds

Bytes.programming.dev timeline issues? by Ategon in c/meta@programming.dev

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago

Seems like the home tileline is has a slow api call currently while the other timelines are working for me

Looked at the repo and it was reported a year ago with no solution so ill see if I can figure it out

To get it actually running you need to do more than set up just the env but ive got what I needed to do here

https://share.ategon.dev/u/IzcMWM.md

If you want to allow logging in so you can test the features that get unlocked from that heres some code changes to get it working so you can bypass setting up openid

What search engine do you use? by Ategon in c/programming@programming.dev

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Since you mentioned not knowing if this is the right community. For any question where you dont know where it goes !no_stupid_questions@programming.dev usually catches everything. Theres also some other question coms at !cs_career_questions@programming.dev and !ask_experienced_devs@programming.dev but theyre more specific. I can leave this one here though, its fine (especially since theres a bunch of info here now)

Some comments not appearing? by Ategon in c/meta@programming.dev

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago

Sometimes federation takes a bit, especially from some of the instances that go down more like feddit.de

I can see the comment on the thread you linked when checking it now https://programming.dev/comment/9725576

Ask Fediverse: can you please stop downvoting posts in communities you do not participate? by Ategon in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Note that the votes are currently only public to admins, there was an issue to extend that to mods that are modding the specific community the upvote is in but not sure the status on that

edit: seems to have been merged in a day after 0.19.3 released so it would probably be in the next version

What are "Taglines" in the server settings? by Ategon in c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

They show up above the posts, below the navbar

A random one is chosen to show up every time someone visits the page. You can check out https://programming.dev for some examples of them (usually itll be an http status code or a quote)

Instances either put announcements there (e.g. future downtime), core info (e.g. links to frontends, donate link) or random sentences. Can only be one of the options out of those three though unless you want to delete and remake things a bunch of times to swap between them if you want everyone to see the downtime message

Expanding the P.D Development Team! by Ategon in c/meta@programming.dev

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

nah python isnt used in the main development anywhere even on the lemmy side. It is used though mainly for things created by db0 though such as fediseer and I believe theres a bot library + can be used for things not in the main development such as tools

End of January Updates - Sublinks, Community Stats, New Community Head, Hexbear, Expanding the Admin Team, & Something Releasing Soon by Ategon in c/meta@programming.dev

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Alternative to lemmy being developed (but is also using activitypub so the two federate and its compatible with the lemmy api so frontends like sync, boost, photon, etc. will still work). When version 0.1 releases itll essentially have parity with lemmy features but with a better UI and then the next updates will be adding more things for moderation, federation, etc.

People from our instance, discuss.online, lemmy.world, etc. have been working on it

Here's an article https://wedistribute.org/2024/01/sublinks-a-replacement-for-lemmy/

Any idea about update timeline to 19.3? by Ategon in c/meta@programming.dev

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Probably soon, just been making sure nothing major broke in the 0.19.3 update before we move over

The 0.19.1 version isnt ideal but its still usable if the server is restarted every day so gives us some time and after the situation with 0.19 0.19.1 were being more cautious

Active and New Communities (thelemmy.club)

Added in some sections on the right side of the screen in the home page that shows the 5 most active communities, and the 5 most recently made communities

This is essentially the equivalent of the trending communities section in lemmy-ui but isnt using the severely broken hot community sort

Section in lemmy ui below

Also you might notice that some communities now have different gradient colors. I added in support for different community gradients and set some values for some of them. (Note this is all hardcoded into the frontend current until I touch the backend).

It also affects the colors of the community names in post feeds such as is done below

As well I made the site sidebar card and the new community list sidebar cards show information when javascript is disabled. Ill be going through and trying to make that happen for as many things as possible

The site theme now also follows prefers-color-scheme by default

Ill likely be changing how the home feed is handled a bit so that it can support javascript being disabled before I push things out to beta.pangora.social

I started implementing a feature that lets you see posts from multiple communities at the same time. Above ive got it pulling from 5 different communities.

Done by just listing all of the communities in the url with plus signs separating them. Its not pushed out to the pangora beta site right now but ill probably try to push out a build either this weekend or during the week

Currently just shows the first 50 from each, ill try to add some sort of addition to the backend in the future that will let me query for multiple communities so I can do the first 50 out of all of them so it doesnt have things out of order for the last post on a page and the first post on the next page

Welcome to the programming.dev transcribing community! (programming.dev)

submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by Ategon@programming.dev to c/transcribing@programming.dev

0 comments fedilink

In the past there was some dicussion about setting up a community and putting some effort into starting to transcribe content but the effort died down a bit

I'm reviving the push to transcribe content now that we have some other image based communities popping up such as !software_gore@programming.dev

How this will work is if you see an image post with no transcriptions yet, feel free to transcribe it and describe what is in the image. If you are posting images you can also add transcriptions of the image in your post body.

The majority of transcriptions will follow this sort of format

Image Transcription: [Insert what category it is here (e.g. meme, discord, reddit, code)]

***

[*A description of anything that might be worth describing about the image aside from what the text says. e.g. an unusual font, background images, etc.]

[The text]

***

I am a human volunteer who transcribes posts to improve accessibility on programming.dev and you could be one too! [!transcribing@programming.dev](/c/transcribing@programming.dev)

the description and text might be repeated if theres multiple images in one and each different image description should be separated with a horizontal line using three dashes

For example for the image:

Image Transcription: Twitter

Annie, @soychotic

Every time I have a programming question and I rly need help, I post it on Reddit and then log into another account and reply to it with an obscenely incorrect answer. Ppl don't care about helping other but they LOVE correcting others. Works 100% of the time

A community for posting memes and humor relating to linux

Yes this community already exists on lemmy.world but not all of our federated instances are federated with world (e.g. beehaw) so this provides an alternative community

Welcome to the community for safe crackers, an upcoming lemmy event (programming.dev)

submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by Ategon@programming.dev to c/safe_crackers@programming.dev

0 comments fedilink

Hey everyone! Ive been working on an event called safe crackers for instances to compete in

Im planning to hopefully run it around february so that its run 6 months apart from !canvas@toast.ooo

Essentially how it will work is each instance has a safe with a 20 digit password. Users of the instance have 100 points, and must set a 4 digit password and attempt to guess the passwords of users in other instances. If a password is guessed then they steal all of the points of the user they guessed.

To help guess passwords clues will be given which when solved will give one character of the users password. Clues will need to be solved using things like community names, post titles, etc. relating to the person

Each user only gets a certain amount of clues every so often so you would have to pool your clues with other members of your instance

If you guess a password you have a chance to get a clue for that instances 20 digit safe. If the 20 digit safe is broken into all of that instances points are stolen and that instance is eliminated

Details might differ a bit in the actual event since im still fleshing it out a bit but it should be similar

Currently thinking the top 20 instances in terms of MAU will be competing and the rest will be under a joint group for a total of 21 groups.

Ill be posting progress updates here on me constructing it and will be running a beta ahead of the actual event to test it out
