thats not an upgrade support thread its a thread announcing the release. Notice how no one is posting there asking for support and no where in the documentation does it mention the thread. People are guided towards the matrix instead and theres like 4 matrix channels where people ask questions so its all unorganized, unsearchable on search engines, and no benefit of upvotes
Seems like posts start at in 60 minutes and then start counting down
ah yeah that seems to be it thanks.
Because it feels way more like we’re in person when facetiming? Being able to see eachother and show eachother stuff is great. Its much different to discord because you’re focused on eachother not doing other stuff while the video is on the side
Sucks. Sorry. They’re releasing mlem on the app store soon tho should be a couple days. https://wefwef.app or memmy should hold you down until then
There’s actually already a Reddit to Lemmy importer that lets you bring threads including comments https://github.com/rileynull/RedditLemmyImporter
Reddit is clearly owned by Venture Capitalists that are forcing the site to go to shit so they can fill their pockets with ad revenue. If we self funded reddit or forums etc so that we can keep ot sustainable and focused on being the best instead of making a small number of people an infinite amount of money we would still have the reddit we love.
The reason the enshittification of reddit and everything is because at the end of the day bills need to be paid and developers need to take breaks or pass on work to other. Look at how the mobile lemmy app mlem got treated so badly and was too stressed to keep developing it.. Servers cost money. Open source software development cost money. Just like Wikipedia i want to support it to ensure it can stay sustainable. Making it easier for people to see the health of the server helps keep it sustainable and alive
Artemis and Mlem so far.
Am I the only one who thinks chat apps are making the internet kinda worse by locking up useful information behind a system that can't be indexed\searched through on search engines? I know chatrooms could be odd to have appear on google searches but so many orgs and software projects now use discord etc as their support section so resolving an issue once doesn't help people in the future searching for the solution.
with that being said im glad matrix is improving
EDIT: apparently this is being worked on https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-public-archive thanks @[email protected] for linking this. Now they just need to also start working on Threads which im assuming is already on their roadmap
im going to write documentation for something I don't understand and can't figure out? Maybe if we had a dedicated website we all use that let us upvote good posts we could have a thread about support for the latest upgrade and then we could use the answers on that website (maybe we call it Lemmy) to update the documentation (which is partly on github, partly on the join-lemmy docs page, and scattered across 4 matrix channels)
