Woah, that’s kind of awesome

I want to see some hustle, Stanley! I want to see commitment! A willingness to go all the way no matter what the cost!

… just reminded me of this quote.

… I didn’t expect the problem to be that simple 😅

I’ll have a fix soon.

edit: I’ve published 26.3.3, which should fix this issue.

Hm, I was looking at your instance right now and saw that the top bar is missing the community list. Someone already reported this a while back, but I was never able to reproduce it. Unfortunately, error logging is rather barebones, but maybe there is something relevant in the logs that could help figure this out?

Nice! I don’t know if you’ve done so yet, but I recommend enabling some options by default: SHOW_UNREAD_COMMENTS (this one is really useful!), LANGUAGE_TAGS, SHOW_CONTROVERSIAL, and, if you want it, EMBED_METADATA. They’re just environment variables, set to 1 to enable.

If you have any questions or problems, feel free to reach out to me!

Everything I’ve done was written entirely by me, as I don’t use AI on principle. I’m fairly sure it was used by some people to contribute to the FHF fork (I’ve seen CLAUDE.md added to gitignore), and the readme and docs did have that AI-generated “feel” to it, if that makes sense. That’s mostly why I reverted them to what it looked like in rystaf’s version in that commit. I couldn’t tell whether AI had also been used for code, so I left that unchanged.

Hello! I just found this thread. I also have a fork of mlmym, based on the FHF version, at https://code.mschae23.de/mschae23/mlmym. I’m also working towards support for the v4 API of lemmy 1.0, but progress is slow :)

I hope you don’t mind this bit of self promotion.

There is one: https://lists.sc07.com/hyperkitty/list/events-announcements@lists.sc07.com/feed/

Ah, the mailing list is new. I was wondering why there weren’t any posts on it yet.

Hmm, I’m searching for the name of a project though, not my own. Wonder if that should be called differently

I just search for mlmym here sometimes, just in case someone posts a thread like this :)

Haven’t seen it called that before, though (I’ve heard “name searching” before, but also only once. I wonder if there’s an established term for this).

This reminds me of StarStarSpace. It’s in German though.

Oh man, it’s also available as GNU info. I’ll have to read this.

Oh, true, that’s completely understandable. I don’t even know myself how long I can keep this up. Though I also don’t plan on disappearing entirely :)

Though to be fair, mlmym doesn’t require much maintenance (with the exception of the upcoming API v4 migration, of course). Most instances of it are still on rystaf’s build, even, and I guess that’s ‘good enough’.

And it’s not critical. If need be, it can be shut down and users will just switch back to the main interface.

The worst part of hosting mlmym you’ll have to consider is that it causes a lot of unwanted bot traffic to the lemmy server, because it’s so easily scrapeable. Whether that’s worth it for the few users who prefer the old reddit design is your call.

Ah, that must’ve been from when I was doing a refactor of the HTML templates. I split that over multiple commits, so there was one where I got creating communities working again, for example.

Funnily enough, the three features you mentioned as an example were already in rystaf’s version :)

I have a changelog that lists all the new features, changes, and bugfixes compared to the FHF fork: https://code.mschae23.de/mschae23/mlmym/src/branch/main/CHANGELOG.md

The reason for this chain of forks is that the original version (rystaf/mlmym) has been abandoned and the maintainer is unreachable. The FHF, running old.lemmy.world, made a fork to support their instance, but they understandably don’t have a lot of time to maintain it.

And I basically just started improving the project and fixing bugs a few months ago, using their version as a base.

As far as I know (and I’m not 100 % sure), no. You don’t even need to inform users that you use functional cookies. Most likely because these work for the person using your website, not against them (persisting the session, settings, and so on).

Could use subdomains to specify it further, like v4.bysa.cc for all CC BY-SA 4.0 works

What makes you say that? As far as I can tell, the only actual downside of it is having to type longer addresses sometimes, but one should really just use the DNS for that. And a bigger address space was needed. Everything else seems better or at least simpler. Autoconfiguration (SLAAC), only one loopback address (which is shorter than any of IPv4’s loopback addresses), subnetting, no need for NAT, proper support for multiple addresses per interface…

In practice, most problems with IPv6 probably just come from bad support for it in software. That means they should be improved, not that IPv6 was a failure. Also check that you’re not blocking ICMP6 traffic in a firewall or similar (or at least allow the things SLAAC and neighbor discovery need).

We do, AI companies just don’t respect it.
