I don't think we needed scientists for this one haha

When you get a loan they are now more expensive. You pay more dollars in interest for the money now.

Not quite. An upvote on Lemmy is a favorite on mastodon. However, all posts on Lemmy look like they are a "boost" by the community when viewing from mastodon.

Love that you are continuing boost for Lemmy! Great work

Great stuff.

Hello! My name is Jack, and I live near the Wisconsin Dells area. I have been a member of this instance since December 2022, and I am the creator of this community. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions for suggestions for c/wisconsin!

I definitely agree. The more niche and community-centric wikis of Fandom and Miraheze should be the primary target. Its also a more achievable goal.

An Ibis article could probably just be considered a post to Lemmy. At least for a read-only view from Lemmy. The questions are: 1. How to show attribution/authorship and 2. Can articles be started or edited on Lemmy?

For 1, probably makes the most sense to show 'Last edited by XYZ on date.time'. showing more than 1 author gets complicated and would probably be better served by a hyperlink to ibis itself.

For 2, it probably shouldn't be possible. Maybe a workaround could be that ibis and Lemmy could (optionally) have a unified login system - so your Lemmy account would be good for an Ibis account if your admins chose to install ibis alongside Lemmy.

Good stuff! Thanks for all that you guys do for Lemmy and the open internet

Doing good! Really happy with where I'm at in life currently.

I don't go out of my way to get news, so social media/Lemmy. Except for local news, which I do follow more closely. But that's it.

Absolute Bullshit. The closure of the branch campuses, which bring the UW to rural Wisconsin, is a failure on the state and on the Universities of Wisconsin (formerly UW System). Thousands of students across wisconsin would not get the life-changing, fulfilling, career-opening education they fucking deserve if all of these branch campuses close.

What is next after the rest of the UW branch campuses close? Bye-bye UW Parkside? UW Superior? UW Platteville?

We can fund these colleges, we just haven't been. It is about god-damn time that our legislature has a spine and promises to fund these colleges, and to re-open the closed ones, for the future. While you're at it, make tuition free at these colleges. The state has more than enough money. Help those who need it.

I have never used amazon, much less paid for a subscription service for the pleasure of using it. I was hoping that the author atleast stopped using amazon alltogether. Ah well. Little victories I guess.

Not at all. We actually block the offending instance.

There's a way to embed a map in the article itself. See page for information on how to do that.

Otherwise I am unaware of a tool that allows for a PNG or SVG export or OSM data.

I know they had a word block list but I'm unsure if it's still around.

I just realized FF didn't have a built in translator a week ago. Excited to see it come!

Drive throughs are the real evil here.

You're right. Here's the archive link: https://archive.ph/kXZft

They go to nearly everyone.

If I on instance a report a post on instance b made by a user on instance c, all three instances' admins will receive the report, as well as the community on instance b.

It's kind of a mess, and definitely overkill.

That thread was posted by a user, not an admin. So it wasn't official in any capacity. We're still federated!

I got by for a long time using a YouTube playlist and Vanced. Might want to look into YouTube Revanced, it's a patch for the YT app that deletes ads and adds some extra features.

Thanks for letting me know, it should be fixed now.

I just now realized I got Voyager and Lemmy versions confused. You are right about 0.20 being the most recent voyager version.

0.18.2 is the most recent version...

Also noticing. Seem to to away after a few minutes/tries.

https://midwest.social can't beat the great lakes.

@remindme@mstdn.social 6 hours

We don't.

I'm from the Midwest. Like to be on a server with similar people

Hate speech is defined by the Cambridge Dictionary as "public speech that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group based on something such as race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation".

i'd rather not see Lemmy be a bunch of auto-reposts from reddit (or any other platform). If you find links on reddit, its cool to share them here, but not automatically.

It looks like someone posted a bunch of posts (all at once) to the !gundeals community. Its not ads, just an individual posting a bit too much.

Sounds like it sorts out the right kind of people? I'm not aware of anyone actually asking you to write an essay, no one would do that. 2 short answer questions does not an essay make.

It'll drop a little, but to a significantly higher level than it was before.

Hello! Feel free to check out the general Wisconsin community too, c/wisconsin@midwest.social

At face value this seems like the thing that republicans wouldn't support... that being said the article says that the assembly is "expected to pass a Republican-authored, bipartisan bill".

Every website/bot tracks it differently. Some are opt-in only, others may only consider a certain type of software, and for others it's just plain hard to get an exact count.
