You need to report that to the admin of reddthat.com

It seems a lot of people especially from the US are still suffering from red scare propaganda. Anyway its just an avatar to give a human face to my online accounts without using my real face.

Of the two us us Dessalines is the one who needs funding the least, he was fine with the previous donation amount of 1000 Euros per dev. Im the one who created the call for donations because I have two small children to feed. So whether you donate or not isnt going to change Dessalines’ mind at all.

Sorry I talked with many dozens of people about this topic and dont remember what you specifically said. In my head it all got mixed together into a single conversation.

The way I see it, funding for Lemmy development is an entirely separate issue from the moderation of lemmy.ml. The moderation for an instance should only be decided by its local admins and users. Imagine lemmy.ml users going around and saying that lemmy.zip must change this or that thing. You would tell them to mind their own business, and with good reason.

I found your reply now, here it is. You were asking for lemmy.ml donations to be separate from other donations. This was already addressed long ago, see here.

I’m not a lawyer and people don’t speak English in my country. So I don’t really care how it works on another continent, as long as you get the meaning.

First you people complained that donations were paying for lemmy.ml hosting. As soon as that was addressed you moved the goalposts to something different. Clearly it makes no sense to jump through hoops for people who are never going to donate anyway.

I’m glad that you are amused.

If you have to slander us, at least try to make it believable.

Now calculate the donations per active user and the difference becomes very small.

Good point, this is one of those features which is already implemented in the backend but not added to lemmy-ui yet. Made a pull request for it.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/3220/files

Lemmy has an open API, and instance admins have even more data available by accessing the database directly. One of the lemmy.world admins is also working on a feature for vote analytics, though at Lemmy’s current size it seems very low priority.

I thought about that too, have to figure out how it can be implemented (im not very good at frontend stuff).

No worries. Make sure to follow the documentation on join-lemmy.org for development, and use the release/v0.19 branch for both lemmy and lemmy-ui as the main branch is currently broken due to 1.0 changes.

Makes sense. My idea is to use a fixed order for the different types of results, eg always put communities first, then users etc. What do you think? For communities it would make sense to display the short description as well, and for users both post and comment count?

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/3219

The tabs could make sense, but then they should be between the search bar and results, because each tab has the same buttons. You can make a pull request with what you have so far and then we can discuss it in detail.

Right, this is because it currently uses two separate api calls for search and resolve object. It will be fixed in 1.0 with https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5752.

Yes exactly.

Its basically a collection of communities, so you can browse multiple related communities at the same time. Piefed already implements this under a different name:

https://piefed.social/feeds

https://piefed.social/f/cinema

This is already implemented, admins can specify a “suggested” multi-community which will be shown next to Subscribed/Local/All just like you say.

Thanks this is very useful feedback. Especially the search box in community sidebar would be very useful and easy to add. Formatting for community ids should also be easy to improve. A bit later when I have time I will implement these things, and then make a post in the Help Design Lemmy Series regarding search.

By the way basic reading is working for me in Tor browser with JS disabled. Though buttons like switching Local/All, sorting and of course forms like register, login and search are not supported. We could use contributors to help fix these things.
