Nah I dont even like visible upvotes/downvotes. Just incentives the complementary wrong mindset for healthy discussions.

Your reputation should be what people know of you not points.

I worked at Tinder, we had something like 100 engineers for 20 million or whatever daily active users., and I think it was rather well managed with everyone doing a part. Reddit is 20x user wise and far more complex feature wise, so maybe it makes sense.

It seems absurd, but there’s a lot of things going on that you don’t think about. Bots, Ads, Moderation tooling, User management, Chat feature, NFTs, revenue features, push notifications, user targeting, ranking algorithms, etc all consist of whole teams.

I’ve been thinking about this.

I am thinking essentially the solution is the equivalent of multi reddits. In the UI, either from the user perspective, or the server admin perspective, you can setup communities that are just aggregations of different communities.

Then a user can choose to browse /c/cats which is actually just /c/cats from lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, etc as one feed.

Can they? It doesnt seem so simple because they have no way of knowing which posts are edited in good faith vs not.

They can try to undo comments which sre repeated 10x+ times or something I guess, but editing users comments seems like a really bad move

What I hate about those award crap is they basically gave you a paid way to highlight the fuck out of posts with changing the background, making it shoot rockets, or whatever else.

Edit your content, dont just delete

Nah I disagree. Turning things less serious is not necessarily a bad thing. People will visit to check it out but long term it will get stale and die off.

Ah, my ide auto pulls in imports sometimes. Thank you

Check out svelte, its pretty much native JS.

Doesn’t get much simpler than this https://github.com/ando818/lemmy-ui-svelte/blob/main/src/routes/%2Bpage.server.js https://github.com/ando818/lemmy-ui-svelte/blob/main/src/routes/%2Bpage.svelte

Can you move the server name to an .env variable so I don’t have to run a sed? sharing my sed:

Yes, definitely will do.

On desktop browser, I’m getting a ‘500 internal error’ on the /r/post/xxx route, but not sure why. The console isn’t showing anything. The page.server.js seems to get the JSON fine from the API, but the .svelte file in that route is failing.

I think I know this issue. When clicking a post from the front page it stores the post so upon landing on /post/xxx it doesn’t have to refetch that data. It fetches the comments on /post/xxx but not the post itself. Just need to fetch the post itself if someone lands directly on that page.

Not my intention, I was referring to myself as the .dev extension is short for developer but understood Ill just remove the link

For what its worth, the domain has nothing to do with the project. Its just my personal site for testing
