How about more pets in general? Gimme those pet turtle and pet spiders content

That's what I've blocked yeah. Though you can't really have any confirmation (the "software" and "version" fields will remain blank) because they haven't even enabled federation yet.

I second this request. Your theme looks great and I'd love to include it in my instance.

They look great! Italian here, you get a pass. Be proud. I don't browse this community THAT often but this is the first really appealing dish I've seen in here.

Now I finally understand the reasons behind the Russian invasion.

I never considered doing that, actually. I always felt like PRs where only useful when you actually had something to show, otherwise you are just spamming a project with useless ideas and "what if"s.

But this is also my first time contributing to an open source project. Learning experience.

When did you submit your request? I sent mine on the 22nd and they still haven't replied. I'm thinking of reporting them to my country's privacy authority if they don't comply before 22/07.

Same lol. I managed to break both my community as well as the entire instance by messing with those settings. The UI could be a bit more user friendly on that imo.

Right now the language selector has become the part of the admin UI that no one on my team is allowed to touch, under death threath, lmao.

1. I'd say the suggested practice is going with smaller instances (i.e. anything that isn't lemmy.ml or even worse lemmy.world). But sure, if you want to spin up a custom instance that would be even better. You'd have the advantage of being able to customize your experience a lot more (changing themes, editing the code to fix stuff you don't like, managing your own emojis...)

2. I'd say around 10€ a month. My instance pays around that (maybe a little more, can't remember) and we have over 100 users. It's really not that expensive.

3. You become a mega janny. You have to draft server wide rules, appoint mods and make sure they don't screw up by letting banned content through. Depending on your country's laws and where your instance is hosted, you might risk hosting illegal stuff for which you as an admin would be liable.

Others have already replied to 4. and 5. so I'm not going to make this wall of text any longer.

Ansible guide. I didn't follow this one myself but the guy who set up my instance said it was pretty easy

...or join a smaller instance.

I am working on it! My team and I are working on this issue as we speak (I literally tabbed out of VS Code to answer this) and we plan to roll them out to our modded instance in a matter of days, it's our top priority.

Extending support for this feature to the wider lemmy codebase is not paramount to our roadmap, but we will certainly make a pull request once we are done. If the lemmy devs will like our implementation and decide to adopt it we will definitely be very glad to help them doing so.

EDIT, 10 days after: only now I see that the links was about post flairs, not user flairs. To clarify, I am working on user flair, no idea if and who is working on post flairs.

Oh I wasn't aware of this. Very tempting. Now I lowkey wish they miss the deadline on one of the six accounts I requested the data for, so I can do some European style trolling.

Friendly reminder that if you aren't hosting your own instance you don't have "your own Reddit"

...nor blackjack, nor hookers, for that matter..
