I couldn't find it on my phone's playstore, so had to install it via that web link, but everything looks good so far.
I use to play around with a little device called Open Pandora (from when System-On-A-Chip really became a thing; it looked like a bulky Nintendo DS and was mostly used to emulate old games (including Nintendo DS ones, interestingly).
I made an alternative desktop environment for it (so you switch from using XFCE to Openbox).
Anyway, this wallpaper reminds me of that time:
Strange Brew is a confusing post to work with - there's 2 of them, one by you, and one by the bot. Typically, when a post is cross-posted to its own community, only one is visible.
It might be easier to ask why the bot replied to Mr Nice Guy and not Fight Club. Only your error logs can tell you this.
There's no rules about who a bot can reply to. I made a reply in the Fight Club post from a bot account using this:
my_instance="https://feddit.nl"
auth="my-jwt-string"
post_id=1232490 # feddit.nl's version of the post
API="api/v3"
content="Sigh. Yet another Mr Robot ripoff"
create() {
end_point="comment"
json_data="{\"auth\":\"$auth\",\"post_id\":$post_id,\"content\":\"$content\",\"language_id\":37}"
url="$my_instance/$API/$end_point"
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "$json_data" "$url"
}
create
I've already said too much.
Take this photo (toilets without a house), add a photo from Bad Real Estate Photos (houses without a toilet) and you've finally got some normal accommodation.
This post was sandwiched between a bunch of posts from the SideOfTheRoad Community in my subscribed feed, so it was weirdly appropriate. Smashed cars, abandoned furniture, Oppenheimer reviews, random toilets ... all to be expected.
It refers to the written language (e.g. English or German or whatever) rather than bad language.
When Communities are set up, the allowed languages are set up. Usually, people choose 'English' and 'Unspecified', meaning that posts/comments are accepted if they're explicitly tagged as English, or if there is no tag at all.
In Alexandrite, the default tag of English is chosen. If you're getting that Error when trying to post, it's typically because the Community has only been set up to allow 'Unspecified' - in which case, changing the drop-down from English to 'Undetermined' will allow you to post.
Reddit is where the idea that it's OK if 95% of the userbase doesn't engage comes from.
I don't want those kind of Reddit migrants. An influx of lurkers who finally got fed up of the advertising or whatever are no use to anyone. I want people who will to take advantage of the smaller size, realizing that's their post isn't going to get buried in New.
Right now, there's lots of new communities, and the longevity of nearly every one can be measured in the length of time it takes for its creator to get disillusioned with posting into the void.
I'm not sure, tbh. I'm feeling pretty doomy about Lemmy lately.
I've been involved in actively trying to build up an existing Community: I posted stuff, people saw it on All, and subscribed. From that point, growth should be exponential - if you get an extra 100 subscribers, at least 1 of them should be able to overcome their crippling insecurity and post something, but in reality, nothing happened. I kept posting, but repeated mining of my own sense of what's funny just revealed how far adrift my own sense of humour is from a universal sense, and that was that.
You can do what you like to try to grow a Community, but if the people you bring in are the same type of Entitled Toilet Browsers you already have, it won't mean much.
I can't remember. It wouldn't have been for emulation, because I'm never been that bothered about that. I remember it seemed terribly important that I get one, because I paid extra to skip the queue of pre-orders. I ported software directly on the device itself, but - yeah - I think it was mainly for audio/video stuff (using it like a fragile and cumbersome iPod touch)
