I did that five times before remembering I had an old account on this instance that I could switch to to post the question and see what communities I used to be subscribed to.

Thanks! I’ll bookmark that.

I have a lot of issues with Lemmy and more specifically how the fediverse will work with multiple copies of communities and the knee-jerk defederation. But, in terms of stability, content and quality, I feel like it has been getting better. I’m willing to give it some more time.

I imagine specific examples would help the devs. If you can point to a post and comments that disappear in Connect but show up fine in a browser, it would give them a place to debug.

Disagree. So it should be an option. The confirmation is the reason I stayed with Connect over other apps.

In every other app I end up accidentally backing out of the app.

Have you checked the behaviour of those comments on the web or in another app? I’ve definitely seen this but I’m somewhat used to it from RIF. I always figured it meant the comments were deleted after the initial pull of the data.

65 minutes to go!

Still seems to be down. In Connect for Lemmy I get an error message that it is down for maintenance

Please make anything like this optional. I like a super compact view myself.

I remember when this was a requested feature… Apparently it’s how it works in some reddit app

Take one bite now, come back for more.

In the United States.

Thanks! Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be working so there must be something else going on. I appreciate you trying the change for me though!

+1 I really liked this feature in RiF

Maybe not the same issue but I can’t see communities with names longer than 20 characters here. There’s a discussion and solution (I think) here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3449

Any chance of getting that fixed?

I imagine the defense is going to be that the model just reads the text, and then it does not store it anywhere verbatim, so there is no copyright infringement. Kind of like reading a book and learning from it.

Yes, notice I said “Scrape” and not “steal” :)

“Massive Trouble”

Step 1 - Scrape everyone’s data to make your LLM and make a high profile deal worth $10B Step 2 - Get sued by everyone whose data you scraped Step 3 - Settle and everyone in the class will be eligible for $5 credit using ChatGPT-4 Step 4 - Bask in the influx of new data Step 5 - Profit

Figured it out! You have to use your email address, not your username.

Figured this out. On desktop when you hover over “Forgot Password” it says “You must enter an e-mail address to reset your password”.

When you enter a valid email address the “Forgot Password” link enables and works. 👍
