I think the gradient background is a bit too bright? I reduced the luminance for the colors down to 7% and I think it's easier to read, but I'm not a graphic designer at all lmao

:is(.dark .dark\:to-fuchsia-950) {
    --tw-gradient-to: #200222 var(--tw-gradient-to-position);
}
:is(.dark .dark\:via-black) {
    --tw-gradient-to: transparent var(--tw-gradient-to-position);
    --tw-gradient-stops: var(--tw-gradient-from),#000 var(--tw-gradient-via-position),var(--tw-gradient-to);
}
:is(.dark .dark\:from-blue-950) {
    --tw-gradient-from: #080c1c var(--tw-gradient-from-position);
    --tw-gradient-to: rgba(23,37,84,0) var(--tw-gradient-to-position);
    --tw-gradient-stops: var(--tw-gradient-from),var(--tw-gradient-to);
}

also on light theme the posts have a different background color, outline, and shadow so they stand out well from the background, but on dark theme the post background is transparent so they don't stand out from the background at all, that might be a better fix than the CSS changes above

but again I'm not a graphic designer and I'm actually a fan of very plain readable themes

will you guys be making pull requests back to Lemmy, and pulling down their updates as well? this could get really difficult over time, I feel like Lemmy really needs a plugin system https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3562

this also makes me think, I chose the subdomain lemmy for my instance (and many others do this too), but if I ever want to switch to a fork it would really bother me that the subdomain is incorrect lol, I should've used the subdomain forum

is it possible to change the subdomain for an instance? maybe with redirects?

Arctic for iOS now has this feature

maybe other apps will follow

I don't know of any, sorry

I can only suggest 1 community for each subreddit? for r/horrormovies I was gonna suggest [email protected] and [email protected]

edit: nvm, going back to the main list page allows me to recommend more

although I still can't seem to suggest more alternatives for the ones that were already accepted, like for games and gaming, I think [email protected] and [email protected] are better than the suggestions currently in there

Another thing is that ActivityPub uses the hostname as the unique identifier, so I don't think you can easily switch from Lemmy to KBin or something like that if you're trying to use the same hostname as before

@jonathan_vdw about the T7G VR soundtrack release "Final masters in! I’ll be submitting for release on Streaming platforms later today. Bandcamp will see the release some time next week and the rest will follow a bit later.

Thanks for your patience!"

If you want bots check out the Lemmit communities. https://lemmit.online/communities

Or [email protected] or [email protected] or [email protected]

The problem is the bots make more posts than there are people willing to comment on anything. The userbase gets fragmented and they never end up in the same post as someone else, there's 0 actual socializing. People scroll past tons of posts with 0 comments and get frustrated and sometimes they quit. It also discourages real people from making regular posts because they can get drowned out by the bots.

I'd be very curious to see if there's been any successful Lemmy bot poster that just copies content from Reddit or somewhere else, in a way that people actually enjoy and engage with.

I think you need to respect the natural ratio of people posting and people commenting. Bots screw up that ratio big time and dilute the commenters spread thin, stretched across too many posts. Like butter scraped over too much bread.

couldn't a malicious instance or fork just ignore who is trying to access the data and show all the toots that have been federated at all? anything that can be retrieved by another instance is public

it's kinda like when Steam asks for your age when looking at an M rated game

yea normally this isn't an issue cause you post from the community's page so it's selected by default, but this is a real problem when crossposting
