From the related post linked by op, it’s described as just a portion of the managed instance hosting fee going back to the project devs. So if you pay them to host a lemmy instance, a small cut goes to Lemmy devs. Doesn’t seem sketchy at all. Seems to have nothing to do with monetizing the instance itself, which could be funded by voluntary donations as normal or you could probably do membership fees as some instances do. It seems this is just about giving funding to the software devs. Hopefully this encourages other managed hosting providers to also give a cut of their revenue to the software they are using for their business.

The screenshots in some of those tickets look so good :D

The 2 to 5 size jump is only really because there’s no top or bottom bezel and the screen extends all the way to the top/bottom edges. The width is within a few mm and the body width/height is also within a few mm. I got tricked thinking I was gonna get the same size and now my fingers hurt from the back button being that much lower. At least in lineage I can set the hole punch setting to crop the top of the display (adding a black bar to the top of the screen where the camera is) so I don’t have to reach too high for notifications. It’s a shame there’s no setting to crop the bottom of the screen too.

You might be able to get marginal improvement for overhangs by adjusting support z contact distance, if I’m understanding your problem correctly. I’m usually fiddling a bit with mine, too close and supports are hard to remove. Too far and mine looks close to this.

I think they mean something like widevine a la Netflix. Granted there are bypasses for some levels, but that could be a problem imo, iiuc that’s why there aren’t any alternate frontends for Netflix or HBO. I think that would also potentially mean issues playing YouTube in chromium or firefox on Linux if they used L1 (not sure what the current state of widevine on Linux is, last time I had Netflix I couldn’t watch on Linux and had to use my phone or Chromecast)

Maybe you’re thinking of the Egypt Coastal Highway that they expanded over a beach?

I feel like I remember seeing a before and after but I can only find a good after pic now: https://i.redd.it/9mx2c8bgtb4b1.jpg

It’s all about the right tool for the job. This community largely isn’t about rural areas, it’s about cities where cars shouldn’t be the tool for the job (and in big cities where cars are the most convenient option, it’s usually a bad idea that’s been designed into the city, not a fact if life as many carbrains believe)

People love to bring up rural areas that are unliveable without cars as if it’s a refutation but it’s really not the point. Granted those areas could also be much better with a dense walkable old fashioned downtown (like you might find in some rural areas that didn’t get redeveloped for car-centric sprawl), most of this movement is about people who live in cities and have to drive because some genius decided to zone all the grocery stores miles away from the single family homes. Or people who have to drive several hundred feet because the city decided it doesn’t need sidewalks and crosswalks.

I think this answer is the most accurate. People get too hung up same names on different servers. There will always be multiple versions of a community whether they have the same name on different servers or whether one of them snagged the og name and others prefixed with Real_x / True_x. Imo I like it this way better because there’s less favoritism to the one that comes first / people can’t universally squat on a community name

Hetzners risk averseness is so annoying. I tried to sign up and rent a dedi to replace my rack mount nas. Considering electric costs I was happy to pay a few hundred a month for substantial storage. Didn’t realize they didn’t accept privacy.com cards (I don’t even use them to cancel, it’s just so I can change banks and switch 1 billing link instead of 100). Account rejected and deleted and no response from support.

That’s how you get users to turn off all notifications lol
