TL;DR?

And how exactly is this about Lemmy?

vim

Meh. I think we don’t really need one. People need to realize that federation isn’t always the solution. We’re fine with OSM.

That isn’t exactly a discord clone, though. More like WhatsApp but federated. At that point I’d actually just rather use matrix than a messaging app by that cocky dev.

No ActivityPub federated one yet. Someone might make it someday though.

They’ll make it paid someday. Trust me guys.

I keep switching between using Summit (recently went open source), Thunder, Jerboa and the Tesseract web UI. But mostly Jerboa. It opens the fastest. The nicest looking one is Thunder.

Video feels low effort and that slow AI voice is not something that you would use in a devlog.

edit: oh and btw would you consider using Godot instead of Unity? It’s a FOSS competitor.

Mostly the package manager and even the rolling distros’ packages being more outdated than arch everytime. AUR is also very nice to have. The only distro I foind that did spike my interest was NixOS.

I switched to Arch Linux for the memes, but now am unable to leave it. I’ve tried a few dozen distros, but none of them are as good as arch for me, I always come back to it. It’s like arch is my perfect distro.

oh no! wasn’t bluesky decentralized and federated?!? how is this possible?!? /s

If you want a bit more detail, look at my edit. The functions to calculate the hot and scaled for content is now there.

No, it is not weird. Scaled, according to the docs, is like Hot, but less active communities’ posts get a boost.

Edit: here’s a bit more detail

The exact function to calculate the scaled rank is this one:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION scaled_rank (score numeric, published timestamp with time zone, users_active_month numeric)
    RETURNS float
    AS $$
BEGIN
    -- Add 2 to avoid divide by zero errors
    -- Default for score = 1, active users = 1, and now, is (0.1728 / log(2 + 1)) = 0.3621
    -- There may need to be a scale factor multiplied to users_active_month, to make
    -- the log curve less pronounced. This can be tuned in the future.
    RETURN (hot_rank (score, published) / log(2 + users_active_month));
END;

The hot rank is calculated like this:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION hot_rank (score numeric, published timestamp without time zone)
    RETURNS integer
    AS $$
BEGIN
    -- hours_diff:=EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM (timezone('utc',now()) - published))/3600
    RETURN floor(10000 * log(greatest (1, score + 3)) / power(((EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM (timezone('utc', now()) - published)) / 3600) + 2), 1.8))::integer;
END;

Is it me or does Soyjak use Windows?

Frankly, I don’t like dansup and his cocky behaviour. But if Sup ever does become reality, then it will be a real alternative. And no, Loops is not federated.

Rust can be a pain in the ass when you are writing the code, but once you wrap your head around its concepts, the pain will ease and you’ll appreciate them.
