Regarding weather: I just love the no-frills at-a-glance presentation of the AF Weather Widget

12ft.io and/or archive.is/archive.today/... are worth trying in such cases (assuming you already have the latest version of the current ByPass addon, see the other comment).

How does writing things down help when I don't remember to read them back...?

Unless someone would stumble upon a combination of microwave magnetron that "just so happens" to fit a satellite dish LNC mount. I can neither confirm nor deny that such combinations might exist.

It certainly would seem a very good way to impart... "energy" into all and sundry besides the intended target, and as such horribly dangerous and irresponsible.

The ruling has been updated to say that accepting cannot be more convenient/streamlined/less clicks than rejecting, though.

Getting that enforced is another matter altogether, however.

There's CookieAutoDelete (or anonymous tabs, containers, ...) for the other side of this issue.

(Disclaimer: I haven't read into that referenced article by ninja at all, maybe it already says something related)

For one, it may be possible to filter accounts that were created but actually never used to log on, within a week or two of creation - those could go without much harm done IMO.

And/or, you could message such accounts and ask them for email verification, which would need to be completed before they can interact in any way (posting, commenting, voting). That latter one is quite probably currently not directly supported by the Lemmy software, but could be patched in when the need arises.

I "tried" to use XMPP/Jabber in its heyday, but in my experience (& memory) it never got to the point to have a "critical mass" of community (I felt to be part of / want to be part of).

Fediverse/Lemmy has this critical mass at least since some weeks now - unless too many of those users decide to leave for another place, I'm happy here no matter what other things get hyped in a given week.

Back in Jabber's day, I would have liked to see it develop some communities as they did - and still do! - exist on IRC, but that simply never happened (with one I would both be interested in and could find).

I guess this will already have been said, but nonetheless:

I like the feeling of community as it is right now in the Fediverse very much.

Most of me hopes that it will not successfully federate with Meta, ever; or if it "must", in a way that will be mostly irrelevant to me (communities I wouldn't subscribe to in the first place, anyway).

I don't see how that, in turn, would give Meta any control over the parts of the Fediverse that I care about. If they want to join and contribute in good faith, fine. If not, also fine. Why should it change anything for Fediverse "centered" communities?

I never cared about size or majority, but about quality of content and discourse. And I find that in those points, the current Fediverse much outshines anything else I've seen (Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, ...) in the last decade or so.

You might also want to look into Zstandard - it gives much better ratios in orders of magnitude quicker time on modern hardware.

A bit down on the page you can find versions of the 7-zip graphical archive manager extended with this Zstandard algorithm.

Like normal 7-zip/traditional zip/rar/gzip/bz2/..., Zstandard is completely (guaranteed) lossless.

(I don't really know about ECM at all, so I won't speak on that aspect.)

Thinking like a good little git(hub) user, the term "Forked Community on Lemmy" came to mind all too easily.
