Basically, title.

I have no idea what is the best from a cost/performance/reliability perspective.

I usually use catbox.moe, but got a few issues today, so I was thinking that having all of the content I post to one hoster might cause issue if they were to go down one day.

What do you think?

Once there is text in the "body" field, clicking on the emoji panel clears the "community" field but does not show up the emojis

Hello everyone,

Just something that crossed my mind: should we have a Reddthat matrix room? Could be useful to chat, and have a fallback place in case Reddthat encounter service disruption :)

Just tried to crosspost something, once the target community is populated, all the fields (title, URL) get blank

Hello,

I started getting this this morning, I guess this is due to the latest update.

Should be easy to reproduce, for instance with that link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_O74AVDl-Q

Has anyone else been getting long page load times (like ~10 or more seconds) frequently but intermittently over the last couple days?

Hello everyone,

I noticed that starting today, once I will post something, there will be a small lag before the post is actually created, leading me to click twice on the "Create" button, creating double posts.

Am I the only one experiencing this?

mlmym (the "old" interface) was updated on GitHub recently with changes that should fix the broken orangered notification envelope and the user profile sort order issues.

@ticoombs -- when you have a chance, could you please look into updating mlmym on reddthat? Thank you!

It used to look, well, black, but now I'm seeing this, which is a bit hard to read... Did the theme change recently? I'd love to goback to my white-on-black look if possible...

Its so annoying not being able to downvote. Just enable them

Basically, title, I wanted to send a DM to @01010101011@reddthat.com, but the page kept loading 😅

Recently we have been smashing my internal goals for Reddthat.

• ✅ Fix the beta issues plaguing the site
• ✅ Fix the database issues for upgrading (oops)
• ✅ Fix LemmyWorld federation
• ✅ Finalise a new release for lemmy-ansible
• ✅ Solid uptime & page speed loads (baring the unfortunate beta issue, which unless we had found would have made it into production for everyone)

With all these stability changes now done, I am looking at ways in which we can improve Reddthat further and we are open to any ideas so please feel free to post away!

I'm toying with ideas to use the local only community feature to provide a point of difference in the landscape of Lemmy servers. Weekly events? New communities?

Either way I'm enjoying some coffee, drafting our monthly post to go into more details on the LW federation, and hopefully finding some time to enjoy some autumn sunshine!

Cheers, Tiff

As we are running the latest and greatest Beta currently. This post will be a list of all known bugs & fun things that we are dealing with.

Please comment if you have a bug so we can help make the next Lemmy version.

Known Bugs

• Video links are not embeddable when they have a thumbnail. Issue: (UI-#2418)
• FIXED: Local and All pagination (Clicking Next) results in 25-30 seconds load times. Issue: (Lemmy-#4618)
  • Good News: This will be fixed VERY SOON! PR: #4662
• Federation with LemmyWorld
  • We have created a server in Amsterdam which is close enough to LemmyWorld where we can ingest all of the Activities, and then batch-send them to Reddthat. Currently it is performing very well. It is still early in testing but all signs point to solving our activity backlog issue!
• Private messages are broken #2439-ui

It doesn’t look to be working on my end. https://reddthat.com/post/16996077

Are mp4 files accepted

For the past 3 days I have trouble logging in reddthat using jerboa. I am able to log in to other accounts, including LW. Also, I am able to log in reddthat with the web app and Eternity. When I log in, I get a message Illegal input field, public_key is required (the full message is not visible).

I am using a password manager so I am sure I am using the correct credentials. I have reinstalled jerboa and deleted all data.

Anything I can try? Anyone else facing the same issue?

Edit: I have tried every version from 0.60 to 0.65, some of them I have used successfully in the past.

I have edited out the username and password for privacy reasons.

Hi, are there any reddthat members submitting to the #Fedivision2024 contest?

If you are planning on making a submission, let us know. I would be happy to support members of our community!

Far too often, lately, I see lots of people worried about the number of downvotes, or making preliminary justifications and requests to not downvote particular posts.

Me? I don't have to think about any of that. The content of the posts and comments determines their quality, not some artificial number that only represents whether people dis/like something.

Edit: Wow, a lot of people from other instances seem really offended that I don't like downvoting and seem a bit confused that I'd be thanking my admins for something I appreciate.

If you like downvoting, you don't have to move here. Enjoy your instance's features. Welcome to the Fediverse.

My only conclusion is is that some banks use some feature built in PDF Readers to prevent the printing of a PDF, by covering parts with black bars.

The issue does not appear when using other software like Adobe Reader or Microsoft Edge, to print the PDF.

Is this a form of DRM? I want to know how it works whatever is causing it, and be able to remove it from the PDF itself completely.

Why does Firefox obey this DRM crap, while Edge has the balls to ignore it?

Hello,

By randomly browsing a discussion on !fediverse@lemmy.world, I just realized I wanted to come back to the real use of downvotes (which was first a user-level moderation about spam, and actually shouldn't exist anymore as we now have the report button).

So I'm back here on Reddthat, happy to use an instance without downvotes!

Also... video uploads are a thing now ;)

@ticoombs@reddthat.com

I tried to upload an image, but got the error IO error: Os { code: 28, kind: StorageFull, message: "No space left on device" }

I'm assuming it's a different storage area than the main database, otherwise this will fail too...

Just posting a link in case our awesome admin team missed it - Happy New Year guys, you're great!

Anyone going on a bender? Big new year's plans? Festivals? Going to 37C3? Or having a chill one?

I'm probably going to do fun things like automating the deployment of new versions to our dev instance with automatic restore from the latest backup. Then I can get a better idea on what Lemmy is going to do on Prod. Yes that is what I classify as a good time 😅

That's one of the features of the 0.19 version, but I don't know how to do it.

Hey Reddthat mods,

Is there a mechanism to report entire communities? I found one that appears to be

but it's the lone mod doing the posting, so sending a report will likely be ignored.

It's a community on this instance.

Edit: formatting

Sorry to be that guy, but looks like the alternate UIs are offline again. And btw, on status.reddthat it says old.reddthat (which I use) has been offline over a month, which is not correct :-)

I noticed reddthat getting very little posts so I signed up and started contributing to the top communities. How can we get more people to do the same?

Do you also have image upload issues sometimes? I have posted a screenshot of how it looks when it fails. It is a known bug -> https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1489

Do you maybe know how to get around it, and still be able to upload the image?

I want to create a few communities, but two of them are bot communities with a high volume of posts, and I would interact with them only a couple of times a day. I would like to know what the rules are regarding bots and specifically bot communities. I made these communities on lemm.ee, but they changed the rules to forbid this kind of communities later, so I'm asking first this time. The main reason the bot communities were forbidden in lemm.ee was that they caused too much noise on the local feed, and people complained about it.

Here are the communities I'm planning to create:

• Polls: A community for polls. I'm especially interested in creating the polls community here since it solves the problem of people downvoting answers when in polls you usually can't downvote. Link to c/polls@lemmy.ml
• ShareGPT: To share AI output I find interesting. Link to c/sharegpt@lemmy.fmhy.ml
• Lemmy Issues: For moving issue discussion to Lemmy. Mainly a bot community. Link to c/issue_tracker@lemm.ee
• Zeitgeist Zone: To post my YouTube feed and anything I want. Mostly a bot account. Link to c/youtube_feed@lemm.ee

Can anyone provide information on the rules and guidelines for bot communities on Reddthat.com? I want to ensure that I'm following the platform's policies before creating these communities. Thanks in advance!

The only request i make is you watch the video before. If this violates guidelines in any way then no hard feelings if it gets deleted. Note: bo not do any of what you see in the video. Predator hunting is absolutely dangerous and should not be taken on by average people.
