eeh fuck it
he/him btw
nobody (in terms of both apps or servers) uses the C2S API. the closest you can get to a “de facto” standard is unfortunately the Mastodon API.
You have to actually toggle to see it but IMO it massively improves how scrolling feels.
There are a few more scrolling-related options out there on the net if there’s a particular “feel” you want to go for. https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/blob/main/Smoothfox.js provides a couple you can try out, and most of these custom scrolling options use msdPhysics as a baseline.
Not obscure but general.smoothScroll.msdPhysics.enabled
=true is a must have IMO.
.ml unblocked the kbinBot UA a couple days ago so as new posts and comments are made it should be syncing up. there are still a few instances out there that seem to not federate as well (in particular beehaw doesn’t seem to be federating beyond community discovery) but i believe that’s just some reverse proxy misconfiguration (the lemmy-ansible nginx config had some federation related fixes with the release of 0.18.1 they may not have applied) rather than anything intentional
.ml still seems to have the user-agent block in place but plenty of other Lemmy instances that didn’t federate before seem to be federating. or at least federating enough that searching picks up their communities.
last time i tried .world was the only instance that federated with kbin properly
It’s possible by having the webfinger endpoints at the “root” while keeping the rest of Lemmy on a subdomain. The main thing that determines the domain in your username is webfinger.
No clue if Lemmy or kbin support this config though, but quite a bit of the microblog-only parts of fedi do, and it’s a widely used thing.
jsyk, with how ActivityPub works changing the software that’s running from under it will break federation with you in all sorts of subtle ways. When you pick a thing to run under a domain you’re effectively locked into running that software under that domain. And of course there is some cryptographic verification as well so you change the keys (or you wipe or forget to back up the database) you may as well burn that domain from federating ever again.
On a desktop or especially laptop case, it should be equal to (or larger than) your RAM if you use hibernation (as RAM gets copied to swap during hibernation)
On my server, I set it up to be 2GBs, mostly arbitrarily. Right now it’s at 500MB, but my main memory is also only 600-800MB full out of the total 4GBs available, so I’m not running out of RAM anytime soon.
Swap behavior seems to have changed a while ago, so consider reading https://chrisdown.name/2018/01/02/in-defence-of-swap.html on how it works right now. Hell, even that might be outdated nowadays. Up to date info on how swap works really seems hard to come by.
Moreover I also have my swappiness set to 0 because I don’t want stuff swapped out of memory. If I need more memory I need more memory.
I don’t think swappiness has worked that way for a while now.
Tumblr - both as the userbase and as the company - has been pretty “cool” compared to Facebook/Instagram (which isn’t a high bar, really). I think most people are indifferent to favorable on letting them in here if they decide on doing that.
I think they’re “getting their feet wet” with federation with an official WordPress plugin (Tumblr is now owned by the company that develops WordPress) first, before deploying it on Tumblr.
All of these are “root” mounts. I don’t explicitly mount any subvolumes (they get “implicitly” mounted as folders though)
