Duh, that’s practically what I’m asking for how to I ask a blog that isn’t going be taken down because someone disagrees? Is there an existing platform that isn’t going to take it down or do I have to build my own from scratch and reinvent the wheel?


I brought up Bush’s reaction as an example of leadership failure, to highlight how tone-deaf it is for leaders to act indifferent in a crisis, regardless of the reason. And it’s ironic you’re resorting to ad hominem attacks about my intelligence when that’s the weakest form of argument.


Why are you bringing all that up? I’m going to be annoyed at the situation whether or not the US government knew or was responsible for 9/11. Jumping to his defense seems the kind of thing a glowie would do.


All those links give 404 errors, are you trolling?


This situation pisses me even more than when I saw George W. Bush sitting in that Florida classroom on September 11, 2001. After being told that a second plane had hit the World Trade Center, he just continued listening the kids read ‘Kite must hit steel.’ He sat there, seemingly unfazed, as if it were normal for a U.S. president to hear about such a catastrophic attack and not react immediately. And now, here we are again, what the hell is Trump doing playing golf while the global economy collapses?


I ended up using OpenCode, very useful thanks!


It would be very interesting if there was a list of all those repos somewhere.


For me, it’s the ability to disable downvotes on a community on PieFed. On Reddit, every time a sub gets popular, discussions just get downvoted into oblivion in favor of memes. There are always certain topics you simply can’t discuss without getting buried.
With this feature, you don’t have to keep splitting a community into smaller and smaller fragments just to have a space where a topic is allowed. Everything gets represented based on how many people actually like the topic, without people who dislike it being able to effectively censor it and prevent others from discussing it. That’s the killer feature for me.


I’ve seen the lego summary from Iran and this one from China.


Great, to read this I may as well go back to Reddit.

You can’t have a recommendation algorithm on open-source software because it requires a lot of compute to calculate personalized recommendations for each user, which simply isn’t feasible for most instances. Instead, there should be an API endpoint that returns post metadata for the last week, allowing users to implement their own ranking algorithm via a userscript running on their own hardware.
I also believe there should be a more personalized “All” feed per instance. Each instance could surface different content tuned to the admins or to a subset of long-term users—something stable that doesn’t change often but varies from server to server.

I think the issue is that I posted 10 posts in a row so it felt like spam, I had been posting with the same bot for a month to promote my channel without problem. The community was my own so only the piefed.zip server rules applied.
