I hope youre right :)
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Thanks for your donations and your understanding. Its a bit annoying that people ascribe various beliefs to me personally based on nothing more than comments from random lemmy.ml users. But it seems there is nothing I can do to change that.
- Comment on Lemmy needs more donations 1 week ago:
So you expect me to dig through months of history to dig up this alleged comment where Dessalines acted as a jerk? Or blindly take your word for it? Besides, if the last time this happened was months ago it hardly seems worth mentioning. Everyone can have a bad day and say something wrong, its not the end of the world.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Good idea, thanks for the suggestion!
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
There was no hardcore refusal because this matter wasnt even mentioned as a blocker for donations until a few days ago. In fact lemmy.ml hosting is only funded via Opencollective, so if you donate through any other platform the money goes entirely to developer salaries.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
So you expect us to make a lot of major changes to the oldest Lemmy instance in existence and disappoint many users. All for the goal of maybe possibly getting a few more donations, without any guarantee. Its more likely that youre a cheapskate looking for any excuse to avoid donating, and keep using Lemmy without contributing at all. If you dont want to donate at least be honest, I would respect that.

In other words your experience on Lemmy has been mostly positive? Then why dont you want to support the development of this free software? Keep in mind that lemmy.ml is exclusively financed via Opencollective, all other donation platforms go directly to developer salaries.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Do you know a good site for that?
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
It looks good! Why dont you add it to the app list on join-lemmy.org?
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
You can read the release announcements to see what changed. Be warned its a lot.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
You are not banned from lemmy.ml
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Your estimate is wrong, have a look at all the code he writes: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%…
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Note that lemmy.ml hosting is only financed via Opencollective. All donations through other platforms go exclusively to developer salaries.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Thank you!
- Comment on Lemmy needs more donations 1 week ago:
There is no paid moderation work on lemmy.ml, its all volunteer based.
- Comment on Lemmy needs more donations 1 week ago:
There is no one else with the skill or interest to take over Lemmy development. I also wonder how you got the impression that “authoritarian communist politics” are my reason to work on Lemmy and give it away for free to everyone.
- Comment on Lemmy needs more donations 1 week ago:
Please show me where I behaved as a jerk on lemmy.ml.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Would you donate to Lemmy if lemmy.ml hosting was funded separately?
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Thank you!
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Thanks!
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
lemmy.ml is part of Lemmy development as it is used to test new versions before release, take performance measurements and have first-hand experience with the mod tools. If I stepped away from lemmy.ml it would make Lemmy worse and cause more problems for other instance admins. In any case the costs for lemmy.ml hosting are already covered at a much lower donation level, anything you contribute goes directly to developer salaries.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
The roadmap contains a new feature for extended instance block, which also blocks all posts and comments from that instance’s users. If some feature is not implemented in Lemmy thats not out of malice, but because we really dont have time to work in everything that people ask for.
- Comment on Please consider supporting Lemmy development 1 week ago:
Working on Lemmy is already a fulltime job. Providing a managed hosting service would add another significant workload and leave much less time for the main development work.
- Comment on Men: What sequence do you fellow to dry your body off after showering or bathing? 7 months ago:
Just move the towel around randomly until Im halfway dry. Doesnt matter if there is some water left, it will dry soon enough.
- Comment on What happened with active users on Lemmy? 7 months ago:
Its not merged/deployed yet.
- Comment on What happened with active users on Lemmy? 8 months ago:
Second attempt, I removed lemmy.world from the blocklist and instead added some code to hide any instances with more than 30% of all active users.
- Comment on What happened with active users on Lemmy? 8 months ago:
Or even some logic to automatically exclude from the list any instance with more than x% of active users.
- Comment on What happened with active users on Lemmy? 8 months ago:
I posted about this in the admin chat on matrix, but you’re right the pull request was merged very quickly.
The lemmyverse link is also a good idea, but users only see it after filling in their email and password. At that point it’s unlikely that they would cancel it and go to a different website.
- Comment on What happened with active users on Lemmy? 8 months ago:
Right, I didn’t think how it would affect the total active user count. Will have to think of a solution for that.
- Comment on Is it possible to change ones username on Lemmy? 3 years ago:
It might be possible, but someone first needs to work on it. For me its far down the list of priorities, considering that you can just make a new account, and put a link to the old account in the bio.
