    It's probably also a side-effect of this instance running a two month old version of lemmy. I already created a new account on a different instance. I haven't had any issues since.

    IMHO technically speaking the concpt of a Blockchain and decentralized zero trust computing like in Ethereum are indeed "interesting" as concepts.

    But in practice there are a ton of issues with current implementations and it's likely not going to be used on a large scale because zero-trust doesn't scale well.

    That's just BS. Keyloggers only need to a simple win api call (SetWindowsHookEx with WH_KEYBOARD_LL) and you are good to go. No admin rights required. You won't get events from elevated processes, but browsers run in regular userspace so you can capture everything.

    Can't comment or post

    Test. Update: wow that took long. I can't comment on other instances because invalid language or something. Google tells me to set a language on my profile, which I did. And my profile settings page shows a warning that I should not uncheck undetermined, but there is no undetermined. Is that a problem with lemmy or this instance? Also creating this post timed out a few times

    Can't comment on other instances because of "invalid language"

    I checked Google and the suggestion was to check my profile settings. On the profile settings page there is a warning not to uncheck "undefined" but I don't have an undefined option. My language is set to English (both of them). Is there anything I can do to fix that issue?

    In also only just downvoted an didn't leave a comment. Only after reading your answer I wrote this. The problem is (and it's probably very hard to overcome), is that people often look for validation and getting downvoted doesn't feels good because it's the exact opposite of validation.

    But keep in mind that nobody (ok at least me 🤣) downvotes you because I want to hurt your feelings or "to silence" you. Don't get me wrong but I couldn't care less. I don't know you, I don't know your past, what you do, your mindset, your attitude. All I see is a post I don't agree with and by downvoting I'm just contributing to a statistic that let's you and other users know how others roughly think about that post.

    I think we should try not to take downvotes to serious. Unless all your posts are downvoted all the time (which could indicate all sort of things) getting some posts downvoted sometimes is perfectly healthy and normal, so try not to take it too personal because non of those people know you, all the know is what you wrote and it didn't resonate with them.

    Trying to find software that generates configs

    A few weeks ago I found a rust based project on the internet that introduced some kind of strongly typed configuration template language that could be compiled (IIRC) to json and or yaml. Does anyone know the name of the project I can't find it anymore. Thank you. Update: It was not SCL.

    IMHO you should not just "hand over" the instance. If it were my instance, I would invite them to create accounts, be active, if everything works out they will become mods and maybe down the line admins, etc.

    To be fair, I'm not sure if it helps to generate "fake" activity. IMHO the migration to lemmy will only work if the content will at least have a minimum amount of quality. Just posting random memes is probably not a good way to start.
