The Lemmy community is here not on GitHub, and discussions on GitHub issues without a threaded, tree-like structure suck.
Federating communities is a manual process so in smaller instances you don’t see as much content as in larger ones since there aren’t many users subscribing to external communities.
Community name in post URL #875
Make post URLs more meaningful #2097
Include the community name and post title in the URL for better readability and context when sharing links to posts. For example, instead of https://example.com/post/12345, use a format like https://example.com/community-name/post-title/12345.
It certainly doesn’t help that Lemmy had and still has absolutely no sensible way to actually surface niche communities to its subscribers. Unlike Reddit, it doesn’t weigh posts by their relative popularity within the community but only by total popularity/popularity within the instance. There’s also zero form of community grouping (like Reddit’s multireddits) - all of which effectively eliminates all niche communities from any sensible main view mode and floods those with shitty memes and even shittier politics only. This pretty much suffocated the initially enthusiastic niche tech communities I had subscribed to. They stood no chance to thrive and their untimely death was inevitable.
There are some very tepid attempts to remedy this in upcoming Lemmy builds, but I fear it’s too little too late.
I fear that Lemmy was simply nowhere near mature enough when it mattered and it has been slowly bleeding users and content ever since. I sincerely hope I’m wrong, though.

Nice! What made you decide to write it? Where can I find out which instances offer that UI?
I stopped using Lemmy due to instances blocking each other. I wanted to view content from specific instances, but none of the instances between the most popular ones allowed me to see all the content. I had to create multiple accounts, which made navigating between them cumbersome. This experience was more frustrating for me than any issues I’ve encountered on Reddit. I believe users should have more freedom to choose the content they see without having to create their own instance or manage multiple accounts. I was hopeful that this would change with user instance blocking implementation, but I feel validated in my decision after seeing that it hasn’t.
Just don’t post about it in the fediverse community. Damn hypocrites.

I ended up using Microsoft Edge because it has a good text-to-speech by default in the Windows and Android versions.
I really like being able to edit the post title and the 6 hour top sort. Although I would like 3 or 4 hours even better.
Google Gemini Powered AlphaCode 2 Technical Report
HumanEval achieved 74.4%, surpassing GPT-4 at 67%. It successfully solves 43% of problems in the latest Codeforces rounds with 10 attempts. The evaluation considered the time penalty, and it still ranks in the 85th percentile or higher. AlphaCode 2 already beats 85% of people in top programming competitions (which are already better than 99% of engineers out there). So, I believe AI already writes better short code than the average programmer, but I don’t think it can debug any code yet. I’d say it will need a platform to test and iteratively rewrite the code, and I don’t see that happening earlier than 3 years.

Cool, that’s what I was looking for. Thanks!
What I’m really looking for is the same tagging method of image boards where everyone collaborates tagging content. I think hashtags are just spam and tags are non disruptive metadata that can actually help organize content.
I don’t know how image boards manage it, but they are always curated properly; I’ve yet to see troll tags.

And am I supposed to take your word or the one from the BBC for it? Why not link something from a less biased source, like from a country that doesn’t host any US military.
