I imagine it should be prioritized though, along with some of the other malicious upload issue mitigation bugs.
Considering giving to any church 501©(3) themselves are considered “charitable donations” when it comes to taxes, this rings a little hollow. If you consider a church as a charity itself, and those churches are soliciting donations every week in services, of course you’re going to see higher charitable giving from areas with a lot of churches/religious. That said, my gripe is not with religious based charities, it’s with churches. Salvation Army can continue to do what it does, religious affiliated childrens hospitals, etc. The amount of money that is spent on congregations is just a waste and it’s a shame.

So do secular charities.
Just imagine what could have been done in the last 300 years if every dollar that was donated to churches went to some other cause, or back into the pockets of the masses. There is an immense amount of wealth that is trapped in the collective real estate, bank accounts, etc owned by churches. I’m not even talking about megachurches or the mormon’s giant stack of cash, just mom’n’pop little parishes that are everywhere across the US.
If ALL that money was still kicking around in the economy and in the pockets of people to spend on real things, building real businesses, etc…we’d be way better off.
Always makes me sad when I visit my in-laws who live in a particularly bible thumpy area and you go and there are spots there where churches outnumber normal businesses. It seems like it’s just a huge drain on the local economy devoting that much money into propping up churches of various kinds…
I’ve done this to a degree as well. I used this LASIM tool someone wrote to auto-move all my user settings and subscribed communities. Pretty neat!
Has there been any posts on this outside of discord? Anything we can do? It’s been noticable and I have an alt I can use when lemmy.world is down, but I didn’t even realize this was happening.
Open, so that the air that gets pumped into my room can tell the Mr. Thermostat in the hall that it’s actually fine in there and they don’t need to call Mr. Furnace or Mrs. A/C.
go to the homepage: https://lemmy.world/
it’s on the section, bottom of the page. There are 4 links, 3 of them are different UIs:
https://status.lemmy.world/ - Lemmy World Status
https://a.lemmy.world - Alexandrite UI
https://m.lemmy.world - Voyager mobile UI
https://old.lemmy.world - A familiar UI
Yeah, I think this is the way things should move in the future. Have community vs user focuses on servers instead of having the same server get hit with both high community/comment usage and a server with lots of login/audit/user browsing requests. Servers with big communities could focus on stability and perfomance. Servers with users could focus on cool UIs and features for their users.
The beatings will continue until morale improves!
Depends on what the motivation is. There are fiscal conservatives that think it is a responsible thing to do and then there are the fiscal conservatives trying to pull the ladder up behind them. Fuck the latter. Agree to disagree with the former.
That’s the same thing to me. Parents and teachers failed to educate them in how to be curious.
My wife is a little this way. Doesn’t draw her in. My son and I are bonding over his first playthrough of Zelda: A Link to the Past. He is way into it and I get to come in and beat the hard parts so he thinks I’m awesome. My wife is fine with it because it’s good father/son bonding time. I expect him to start schooling me any day now.
I think community portability will need to be built into the platform. Without that, we are one bad server owner from losing entire communities. It will inevitably happen at done point.
I wish it were git…
We use subversion primarily.
I know it can be frustrating to hear that as a user
Not at all. I get it completely. I do some programming for my 9-5 and have our releases and stuff scheduled in our Jira, but that’s a private dev team, not a open source project like this and it doesn’t use github/gitlab for anything.
Expectation management and getting people to understand why we didn’t deploy at the specified time is a huge annoyance, lol.
I poked around to see which bugs are being worked on and whatnot on lemmy-ui’s github, but I couldn’t find the release schedule (new to open source projects like this).
Is there a way to get a sense of when a new version drop will be applied outside of being an actual contributor or is that all hidden/just in the minds of the maintainers?
