Lemmy Development Update 2024-10-04
  • nutomic nutomic Now 100%

    In principle it's finished, but last time we put it on lemmy.ml for testing there were performance problems and we had to revert. So far it's not clear what caused those problems, so we need to try again somehow.

    Or you guys like to be shouted at. There is no other country that does this.

    Not like that, they didn't let me board my flight from Europe to Texas. Even though I had a connecting flight to Mexico few hours later. Why can't they have a visa free transit zone like every other country in the world?

    I only stopped there for transit on a flight to Mexico. Just before boarding my flight I was told that I need a visa for the US, which is extremely weird because normally airports have transit zones where you don't need any visa. But apparently the US is special, so you actually have to enter the country before going right back into the airport. This nonsense made me miss my flight.

    Also I remember in the airport there was a security guard doing nothing but shouting nonstop that it's not allowed to carry water. Why not simply put up a sign?

    Maybe it's different where you live, but in my country the covid pandemic has been over since at least two years.

    So 99 percent of the population is insane, alright.

    No that is absolutely expected, but the pandemic has been over for a long time.

    After so many years you are still wearing covid masks and doing tests? For me the last time I wore a mask was almost two years ago, and only because I visited another country where it was still mandatory.

    Which code style to initialize structs?

    To decide if I should merge the linked PR or not (I did merge it).

  • Which code style to initialize structs?
  • nutomic nutomic Now 100%

    Thats even more verbose so the second option is better.

  • Which code style to initialize structs?
  • nutomic nutomic Now 100%

    @DemocratPostingSucks@lemm.ee @Deebster@programming.dev @al4s@feddit.org Thanks for the feedback! Personally I prefer the first option, but based on your comments I will merge the PR with the second option.

  • Which of these code styles do you find preferable? First option using mut with constructor in the beginning: ```rust let mut post_form = PostInsertForm::new( data.name.trim().to_string(), local_user_view.person.id, data.community_id, ); post_form.url = url.map(Into::into); post_form.body = body; post_form.alt_text = data.alt_text.clone(); post_form.nsfw = data.nsfw; post_form.language_id = language_id; ``` Second option without mut and constructor at the end: ```rust let post_form = PostInsertForm { url: url.map(Into::into), body, alt_text: data.alt_text.clone(), nsfw: data.nsfw, language_id, ..PostInsertForm::new( data.name.trim().to_string(), local_user_view.person.id, data.community_id, ) }; ``` You can see the full PR here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5037/files

  • nutomic nutomic Now 100%

  • Hot Take: Lemmy communities should function similar to hashtags on Mastodon.
  • nutomic nutomic Now 100%

    Good reply, like you explain this wouldn't work. Just one thing:

    Lemmy doesn’t aim to be an uncensorable platform.

  • Old vs. new, which one do you like more?
  • nutomic nutomic Now 20%

    Old. Back then they had real people as motives instead of imaginary ugly buildings.

    The names of previous Lemmy versions were all very boring and repetetive. We need something much more creative. Any ideas? ![](https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/d28b75b7-9906-4733-921b-08511ae9d3ea.png)

    Here is our regular update that explains what we have been working on for the past two weeks. This should allow average users to keep up with development, without reading Github comments or knowing how to program. The last two weeks were rather quiet, with only some minor changes merged: @Elara6331 made improvements to the RSS feeds, [adding thumbnails](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4413) and [filtering invalid characters](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4416). She also made a change to account creation, so that [new accounts automatically have the correct interface language](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/4435). @iatenine increased the [font sizes in lemmy-ui](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2352). @Kradyz improved the [message of the add mod dialog](https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/2358). @dessalines has been adding more mod tools to jerboa: adding [ban actions](https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/pull/1325) and [viewing votes](https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/pull/1331). @Sleepless has been working on lemmy-ui-leptos, as well as creating a rust api library for lemmy called [lemmy-client-rs](https://github.com/SleeplessOne1917/lemmy-client-rs). ### Support development @dessalines and @nutomic are working full-time on Lemmy to integrate community contributions, fix bugs, optimize performance and much more. This work is funded exclusively through donations. If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider [donating to support its development](https://join-lemmy.org/donate). Recurring donations are ideal because they allow for long-term planning. But also one-time donations of any amount help us. - [Liberapay](https://liberapay.com/Lemmy) (preferred option) - [Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/lemmy) - [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/dessalines) - [Cryptocurrency](https://join-lemmy.org/donate) (scroll to bottom of page)
