Small warning, the change to change how lemmy as a whole calculates active users just got pushed so instances may mess up the stats as they upgrade to 0.19 when thats stable (and instances using it rn when they upgrade to a more recent release client) (Makes how programming.dev and lemmynsfw calculate community stats the default)

It doesn't, still spams low upvote posts, just slightly tweaked ordering
btw if you put the url to nim as /c/[email protected] I dont think the url bot will trigger since it does the same thing the ! format does
[Nim](/c/[email protected])
Edit: yeah looks like it didnt reply to me so this format works
Looks like a camelCase variable to me so its likely just a temporary word they replace with the actual bot name but something went wrong and it didn't replace it properly leading to the temporary text showing instead
There could be some other reasons but the actual cause cant really be determined without looking at the source code
Congrats on the alpha 🎉
Advent of code is an coding advent calendar where a new puzzle is released every day for people to solve
The numbers there (apart from the timer) in the site that was linked can be clicked to bring you to specific puzzles (1 aka Day 1 for the puzzle on the 1st of december, 2 aka Day 2 for the 2nd of december, etc.)
Weve got a go community in the site that you might get some answers from rather than the general community here [email protected]
This is more a community for the development side being activitypub instead of fediverse
Theres communities like [email protected] though
I haven't touched friendica much so dont know the answer to that
JavaScript
Ended up misreading the instructions due to trying to go fast. Built up a system to compare hand values like its poker before I realized its not poker
Likely last day im going to be able to write code for due to exams coming up

top left of the site in the navbar, and for sites who collect all of the different instances such as join-lemmy and lemmyverse. Also shows up in things like error pages in the new frontend
Smaller in the navbar but in the cases of join-lemmy and the things like error pages its larger (you can see the size by going to https://join-lemmy.org/instances?topic=all_topics&language=all&scroll=true)
Uses typescript but can be used for both js and ts, I make bots in Javascript using it
Hey everyone, the content vote ended and here are the results of what people voted for
Reminder that voting was single transferable vote. If two options were tied the one with a worse average placement in all votes was eliminated
(if someone didnt give a second choice then no other options get their vote)
Crosspost community was eliminated first with no first place votes, then main community (second place votes represented in dark blue), then general community (second place votes represented in light blue)
The overall most voted option was Option 2: People catching community. This means that for the community all content relating to the instance is allowed but people will be directed towards more specific communities relevant to their post in the replies. This should then let people be able to post here with no friction and then get filtered down into the proper communities to help make them more active
As there was significantly less votes than the amount of subscribers in the community I will be running a follow up poll in a week to see if people like how the community is being run or if we need to do another poll to change the instance content again.
Linker Bot
Ive been making a bot for the instance called Linker that posts links to communities in the replies when someone posts a non relative instance link. That feature got implemented into lemmy itself in v18 (it will give autocomplete options when you start typing !insertcommunitynamehere on web) so ill be adapting the bot to fit this community to help with the people catching. The bot api is a bit broken right now so it unfortunately wont be able to work for a bit but until then it would be a huge help if you guys do links to mentioned communities in the comments (it only has to be done once so it doesnt spam the replies)
The format im using for bot messages is something similar to
Hey! Here are some possibly relevant communities in the instance based on what was mentioned
- Link to community 1
- etc for any other communities
I am a bot and this message was created automatically
Feel free to adapt that or make your own
Community Request
Just wanted to do a quick advertisement for the community request community here in the instance at [email protected] . The community is always open to suggest communities to be added to the instance and make sure to upvote ideas there you want added to show the interest in them. Since the discussion community option didnt win if you feel the discussion posts are getting buried by the other content you can suggest a new community for that (or for whatever topic the discussion is about if its general enough)
Mods
If anyone is interested in helping mod the community feel free to reach out to me. Ideally want at least one other person to moderate this community so I can stop moderating and focus on some more admin tasks around the instance including developing some new features for it
Hey everyone! Figured I would do an AMA to kick off some activity in the IAmA community over here. Feel free to throw down some questions below and ill answer them
I'm currently a student in university and have been doing both web development and game development recently (web for internships, game on my own). Out of the four admins ive been the one mainly handling community creation and managing in the instance to make sure everythings running smoothly
Some other misc topics that I can answer about: I compose music & make pixel art, and my favorite games are minecraft, SCP:SL, everhood, battlerite, and metal slug 3
If anyone else wants to do an AMA feel free to start one up in the community (assuming it fits the instance). Any activity helps get the ball rolling for getting it active
The issue with that and reason why AoC doesnt use that for the leaderboard is they dont have access to the code people write, just the final result
Adding that as an option would mean having something that takes into account differences in base runtimes of code for different languages (e.g. scripting languages taking longer) so that its feasible to code it in anything, and having the ability to execute many different kinds of code which can be a pain to set up (and would mean youre then running arbitrary code unless you sandbox it)
I used that as the way to rank people in [email protected] when I was running that and its been on hiatus for awhile due to the effort needed to run it since I havent had time due to building up things in the instance such as [email protected]
It could work if self reported but then its easy to cheat
