It is very likely that the photo of "the fediverse chick" belongs to a real person who has nothing to do with any of this. They would likely be absolutely horrified to know that their face was used for stuff like this. Please be mindful of harming the likely victim here.

Clickbait titles suck

Haha I was using the API incorrectly. I was pushing the image in form.custom_thumbnail while form.url was empty. Apparently, u can't do that.

If u have an image only post, then u have to put the image uri in form.url. the custom_thumbnail is only there if you already have some other link.

Lemmy's documentation is really lacking. Unfortunately, contributing to it is a little complicated too (for lemmy-js-client), that is

No, it's really beautiful! Although it did create a new problem for me to solve for the lemmy client app I'm developing.

So here's the problem: how can one distinguish a real mod from a display name/username looking like a mod?

One way is to put up a "mod badge" in the UI.

I hated this option, as it didn't fit well with my general design. I wanted a color only method of mod identification. The problem with this is, well usernames similar to yours. What if a user just changes their username to the color green?

That increases the chances of someone being fooled by a fake mod.

I tried putting animated text for mods for this. Then, my performance degraded like crazy. I still haven't solved this problem. For now, I'm still doing the color identification way. Let's see, when all major features have been implemented, I'll go on to work on this again.

Why does the fart jar in the picture have a spoon in it?

Aww thank you so much!!! <333

Start weighing EVERYTHING. The consistency your dishes reach is crazy good! A weighing scale isn't that expensive

<3 wow it is a big coincidence! i wish your lemmy client app becomes very famous :D

Awww thanks!! <3

is it an ios app?

Yes, eventually. I'm developing in react native (one codebase, many platforms). I own an Android though, so all physical testing is on this phone. Therefore, all alphas and stuff like that are being built for Android for now. Unfortunately, building and testing for iOS is a massive pain in the ass. I think I would have to take the help of some iOS dev for this in the future/get an old iPhone or something.

do you want to share the link if it is available for everyone to download?

Aww thanks for the interest! It's not ready enough imo to share it publicly for now. However, it's getting there quickly! Can't wait for the day I can share the repo link on the Lemmy app development communities!

How about this - you go to the toilet when you actually want to shit, and doomscroll comfortably somewhere else?

It's still a step in the right direction tho, eh? Of course, it needs other policies in addition to it like:

• MANY preapproved house designs to spend less time in bureaucracy. I think Carney's already doing that, right?
• Removing single family zoning. This comes under provincial/municipal governments from what I know. My municipality has already done this.
• The big tax thing you suggested. I would go ahead and say that there should be an outright ban on owning more than 2/3 properties by private individuals/corporations (this excluded non profit housing coops). But yeah, it'll be wildly unpopular. See how the carbon tax turned out.

So dumb. That's one of the only ways they get to be more influential. Otherwise, single voter FPTP is going to get them fucked
