Update: something major possibly broke. Were waiting a bit longer and possibly until 0.19.4 if its bad enough
Probably soon, just been making sure nothing major broke in the 0.19.3 update before we move over
The 0.19.1 version isnt ideal but its still usable if the server is restarted every day so gives us some time and after the situation with 0.19 0.19.1 were being more cautious
I just transferred the community over to ericjmorey due to them posting in the mod thread so ill try to not manage this as much but I can give my opinion on this community
With all of the question communities ive found that the posting rate is much lower but the engagement on each post is relatively high. If the scope is widened the high activity could be flooded out due to people unsubscribing due to it not being focused on the question topic anymore
(for articles formatted as a question) With articles the focus tends to be more about the article rather than the question itself and you get people talking about things discussed within the article rather than it being open ended
Feel like best thing would be having a new community for career articles
edit: If having a new community for career articles is what you guys want after this discussion just let me know and I can set one up
Alright ive transferred the community over to you
Might be something to do with 0.19, Seems like same is true across my mastodon instances. Assume that would be a bug with lemmy
There is a distinguish option that adds a shield but its a bit redundant since it marks you with the flairs anyways
Only way to really get around it for now is the multiple accounts
Yep, I can update that maybe later today. Was waiting until I get them all up but can do the first 3 while I deal with mlmym
You might need to hard refresh with ctrl f5
Change has been pushed
*removed externally hosted image*
ill check it out and try to fix it
Sure I can push an update with that
yeah people who have been here for longer might have not accurate stats to only the year since I cant get an actual year range of the things I request
itll pull from your entire lemmy history but for most people that will be within the last year
Yeah cant stop that, lemmy doesn't let me do actual ranges
Looks like lemmy.ml is throwing 403s when I try to access images from it. Handled the case and it should work now
Yeah sure I can push out a quick update to do that
edit: done. Also tweaked weights a bit since adventurer was way too common
*removed externally hosted image*
Heres my results, primarily around the gamedev section of the instance and here
*removed externally hosted image*
Ill start off with sharing my results. Top communities is dominated by programming.dev since thats what im the admin of
We usually hide bot communities here which would include zerobytes but my hiding system recently broke a bit due to the 0.19 update so I haven't hid any recently
I can fix that and hide the new communities that popped up
(Hiding just means they dont show on the feeds by default but show for someone if they subscribe to them)
Edit: Fixed the issues with my system and hid the main ones that appeared in the scaled feed, ill hide more as I see them
Edit #2: There is also a way to block an instance like you said by going to your user settings and then the blocks tab on web but this is one case that should be getting handled by us
yeah the interaction per content ratio is extremely high
c/programming was also considered lively last month since it got a bit of a boost from some posts but now its a bit under. Nothing else is close to these two
Turns out to be something specific to a certain instance and how they configured things so were updating today or close to today now
