Glamorous is campy and I love it!
Lemmy is an alternative to Reddit. I personally stopped posting content to Reddit and only point people to Lemmy where possible. You can create an account on feddit.nl, but any other Lemmy server should,work as well. I personally like using the wefwef app and used it after I created an account on the website. But you can use the web-interface as well or any other client you like.

I'm so lost. Is there an easy mode to the fediverse?
I think wefwef.app is probably the easiest you can get on Lemmy, or you could also choose to sign up on the large instances like Kbin.social and Lemmy.world. It doesn't matter what instances you sign up for since they technically access the same content.

Just downloaded Memmy for Lemmy and the interface is definitely inspired by Apollo. Getting the feel for Lemmy already!
I’m sure it’s been said, but https://wefwef.app is VERY Apollo inspired, if you’re looking for a Lemmy client
- How do I get lemmy on iOS? :(

Closing down the subreddit for a bit. I miss you all! ❤️
wefwef.app fells a lot like Apollo and I recommend it as a Lemmy app.

I like the fact that I being made fun of because I have bad eyes and need ’watermelon’ size text. And it is not even big enough for me. Very kind Reddit!
The app is full of junk and does not focus on the content. That is also a huge part of the problem. This is also why I'm now on Lemmy. The site wefwef.app is a life saver.

Ask HN: What do you think about a subscription based social media?
Oh, TIL about https://mastodon.social/ (https://joinmastodon.org/)
Looks like what you describe, doesn't it?

Alt Text box can't fit one screenshot of text
Interestingly there is some discussion for Mastodon with people asking the limit to be smaller, which raises the question as to the purpose of alt text, and how to properly handle larger text lengths in screen reader programs.

Open source at Fastly is getting opener
Through the Fast Forward program, we give free services and support to open source projects and the nonprofits that support them. We support many of the world’s top programming languages (like Python, Rust, Ruby, and the wonderful Scratch), foundational technologies (cURL, the Linux kernel, Kubernetes, OpenStreetMap), and projects that make the internet better and more fun for everyone (Inkscape, Mastodon, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Terms of Service; Didn’t Read).

Bluesky announces data federation for self hosters
Mastodon DMs have absolutely no privacy: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/18079
For a decentralized protocol doing things right is much more important than doing things fast, it is very difficult (and in a lot of cases impossible) to break backwards compatibility.

Ask HN: Best practice for posting links to large Mastodon threads?
Postmortem on what happened here: https://news.ycombinator.com/edit?id=39305884
The v1 API of Mastodon limits the size of the tree that it will expand for users who are not logged into the server: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/blob/main/app/controllers/api/v1/statuses_controller.rb . I am guessing that this or some similar limit applies to threads being returned to unauthenticated users of the web UI. It just arbitrarily stops expanding the replies at some point, including the main thread from the OP.
If a thread is truncated, users expect it to expand automatically and autoscroll when you hit the bottom. In my desktop browser, that does not occur, and there is no indication that there is more to see. This is the situation of the web interface as of Mastodon version 4.2.5.
The issue is very sensitive to observer conditions. If you are logged into the server, the behavior is different. If you use a Mastodon app instead of the web, the behavior might be different. As the tree expands, the cutoffs become different. If you look at the thread on a different Mastodon server, the tree is different because every server has its own view of the Fediverse.
HN needs a best practice for linking to Mastodon threads in a way that provides a consistent experience to HN readers. The average Mastodon server would be crushed by hundreds of HN readers grabbing the entirety of a huge thread all at once, so this might involve some thread-unroll-and-cache service. I tried https://mastoreader.io/ but it did not solve the problem.
Alternately, we push changes into the Mastodon web UI to warn users when they need to click to see more and assume that people will get used to the navigation.
Suggestions?

Unity's Open-Source Double Standard: The Ban of VLC
>You can defeat the Affero clause by putting the software behind a proxy, for example
Could someone elaborate on this? This is NOT my understanding of the license, and it seems absurd considering e.g. Mastodon is AGPL but the standard install requires a reverse proxy[1]. If using a proxy defeats Affero, why would the Mastodon team do this? Are they stupid?
