Hey! Seems my instance can receive posts from yours; both !godot@programming.dev and !programming@programming.dev seem to show the latest posts (newest one is from 19 hours ago). Can this federate back?

edit: I made a whole comment on the issue page without realizing that 19 hours ago was also when you fixed federation... congrats on getting things to work! And maybe my coffee shouldn't be as strong...

I remember managing to get this issue solved on my computer. Looks like a QT issue. I may not remember exactly how I fixed it, but try the solutions in this thread and see if it works: https://lmms.io/forum/viewtopic.php?t=34104

In particular run export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 and then run LMMS from the same terminal.

Also in response to other comments, LMMS is actively being worked on (though updates have been slow) -- the last commit on the master branch was from 3 days ago, so that suggests that the project isn't abandoned but development's just rolling slowly.

The best ace representation! (...though I admit I haven't seen any ace dragons.)

Yeah... Just wow. I disabled pictrs and deleted all its images, which also means all my community images/uploaded images are gone, and it's more of a hassle to see other people's images, but in the end I think it's worth it.

Through caching every image pictrs was also taking up a massive amount of space on my Pi, which I also use for Nextcloud. So that's another plus!

A bit of reverse image searching reveals this was the original XKCD comic (more specifically, the top middle panel): https://xkcd.com/1269/

Don't forget people on single user instances too! It feels pretty good watching drama and not having to worry about how this affects me.

They don't! The first site I linked doesn't have a time limit, and for the second one, you can choose whether or not to give files one.

pict-rs, the software Lemmy uses to upload media by default, is a bit wack right now so people usually get around this (and some other issues) by uploading to sites like files.catbox.moe or postimages.org (the former of which can upload any media while the latter can only do images/gifs). I recommend checking that out - it can come in handy sometimes!

Yeah, Podman is definitely one of those things I would say to do the latter with. It's functionality is the same as Docker though (commands work almost 1:1, and even docker-compose works with Podman), it has better integration with other system components (like automatically creating systemd services to start containers when a computer is restarted), and it gets you away from Docker as a company while still being able to access their containers on Docker Hub.
In the end though, I'd recommend sticking to what you're familiar with. It's always better to administer commands to your server that you know will work rather than learning as you go and hoping something doesn't break.

Firefox sorta does! If you only use tab groups (or profiles for that matter) to separate school tabs from work and personal tabs, I recommend giving the Multi-Account Containers extension a look.
