You can also turn off every AI feature with a single toggle in Settings, and it lets you choose whether to enable it during device setup. For now, at least.

The price? Yes.

The tip prompt? Well, no. Unless you feel like mailing an extra $20 cash to Nintendo

You can read up on the conversation on the GitHub issue here.

TL;DR: the current system on the (unreleased) 1.0 codebase is that your Lemmy instance will replace all Lemmy URLs in posts/comments with the equivalent URLs on your own instance. In the issue I linked, some concerns are raised about this system and various other options are discussed. It’s possible that the way it works will change before Lemmy 1.0 is released.

You’re welcome :)

I’m also curious about the country distribution on lemmy.

I’m a developer for an iOS Lemmy client. The distribution of our downloads by territory is as follows (sample size >18k):

• 50.2% US
• 9.9% Germany
• 5.8% UK
• 5.2% Canada
• 3.5% Australia
• 25.4% other

Biases:

• It only counts users who are using that specific app, which:
  • Is only available on iOS, so Android users aren’t counted. This could have a significant effect on the results because iOS has a much higher market share in the US than, say, Germany.
  • Could be ranked differently in App Store search results in different regions.
  • Only supported English, until very recently. Users who prefer a different language may have chosen an app that supports their language.
• It includes users who downloaded the app but later stopped using Lemmy, which isn’t ideal.

Back in 2023 lemmy.ca did a survey of their users, which you may find interesting.

Lemmy doesn’t support this natively, but many clients do. Off the top of my head:

• Tesseract (desktop)
• Voyager (web frontend designed for mobile. I believe you need to install the app rather than using the website to use keyword filters)
• Mlem (iOS)
• Arctic (iOS)
• Thunder (Android & iOS)
• Sync (Android; I’ve heard Sync is unmaintained though)

Assuming you’re on desktop, Tesseract is probably your best bet. It might also be possible to get Voyager working. Some instances (like sh.itjust.works) run their own Tesseract instances (https://tesh.itjust.works/), but lemm.ee doesn’t. You’d have to use some other Tesseract instance, specifically one that allows connecting to any Lemmy instance (https://tesh.itjust.works/ is for sh.itjust.works accounts only). E.g. https://tesseract.dubvee.org/

The cleaning cloth pictured is the one that comes with the particular brand of screen cleaner that Apple recommends using.

Point webcam at a screen, or maybe a white wall with a projector pointing at it

Mobile apps should allow you to log into any instance. My Lemmy client won’t connect to lemmy.rip either, and fails with the following error:

The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be “lemmy.rip”, which could put your confidential information at risk.

This is also what I see when I try to connect to lemmy.rip in the browser:

I am able to bypass this warning and see the site in the browser.

In 2000, American painter Robert Griffing created a painting titled, Friend or Foe, wherein, two Native American hunters are examining footprints made in the snow.

Toy = Spielzeug = Play Stuff

English has “plaything”, which is kinda similar.

“Cat looks inside”

Here’s the relevant issue on the GitHub repo: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4340

Google may not have enabled them in your region. Here in the UK they just appeared for me one day, a few months after I initially saw screenshots of them online. I didn’t do anything to enable them.

not() is a base function that negates what’s inside (turning True to False and vice versa) giving it no parameter returns “True” (because no parameter counts as False)

Actually, not is an operator. It makes more sense if you write not() as not () - the () is an empty tuple. An empty tuple is falsy in Python, so not () evaluates to True.
