From what I remember, the Trending section was removed from the regular UI a while back. Maybe if you find that change, it might discuss what the plans are for the feature

In my opinion, it doesn’t work as intended yet and it shouldn’t be displayed

What if you distributed the tool under the normal channels, and then used gumroad (or anything similar) to sell an optional key that adds a little visual indicator or removes a nag message. I’ve seen a few other open source projects do that. Grayjay for example

I cross posted this to !selfhosted@lemmy.world, I hope that was ok! I figured it would be good to spread the knowledge

Why don’t you just implement federation normally instead of taking this roundabout way of doing things? As long as your site contributes content back, and makes it clear where content is from, other projects like piefed and lemmy would be happy to have your project join the network.

Continuing like this will likely get you IP blocked from wherever you’re mirroring content from.

Also these platforms are open source. You are allowed to copy and modify things for your own projects, as long as you follow the basic rules in the license.

That’s such a cool photo

We are not running Anubis, although we do block a large number of AI/LLM companies through IP addresses. Each time we block a new one, it makes a noticeable difference in the performance graphs.

https://lemmy.nz/ and https://quokk.au/ are running Anubis, and so those admins may be able to offer insight :)

Did you try Calibre Web or Calibre Web Automated

Maybe CWA is what you’re looking for?

Nice, I had no idea

I tried out Fladder, Moonfin, and Wholphin

• Fladder does load, but it crashes on certain pages for me. My guess is that my hardware isn’t powerful enough to handle something that it’s trying to do
• Moonfin and Wholfin are both beautiful with an intuitive UI. Between the two, I liked Wholfin the best. It has a preview when customizing the home page, which is very helpful compared to the back and forth guess and test with the other ones. I also prefer it’s UI and default settings over the others

I replaced Findroid with Wholphin on ours

Neat, are there any other clients for Android TV aside from the official one?

Fladder was working on it, but last I tried it was still too unstable to use

This one probably needs a NSFW filter, for “I was eating” reasons 😅

A few months later it is then

Thank you!

I was curious about what parts of it felt alpha, whether it’s the power user features vs basic browsing.

I’ll just try it later and report back 😄

Well that’s not great :(

Using it very briefly I’d say it’s more like Alpha currently…

Is it usable as a daily browser, or should I wait a few more months before trying it out?

Edit: see the reply on my comment

I’m not sure if I understood this criticism. The Reddit thread links to this page:

Our image search became even better with the inclusion of two more sources: Yandex Image Search (widely recognized as one of best image search services) and Openverse (vast collection of openly licensed images). Kagi is doing the hard work so that you don’t have to.

Are they financially supporting or sponsoring Yandex in some other way?

To me, this sounds like they added the option to run an image search on Yandex? I use a browser extension for image searches that has a number of options including Google, Bing, Yandex, Baidu, Sogou, etc., and users are free to choose which ones they want to try searching on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/search_by_image/

I also remember seeing Bellingcat (who has done excellent investigative reporting on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine) using Yandex tools to gather information because it has information on the region that other English/Chinese focused tools don’t.

I don’t doubt that Yandex tries to manipulate information in favor of the government in Russia. Rather with the right browser protections, someone can take advantage of their free tools and cost Yandex money without Yandex benefiting from it. It’s not necessarily a bad thing for Kagi to let people do that?

Fingerprint readers and touchscreens can be hit or miss for Linux support.

I think this is a list of supported readers. When you get a shortlist of devices you want to purchase, compare its fingerprint reader with this list: https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html

!lemmy411@lemmy.ca would be best for that. You can also ask in the various c/nostupidquestions communities

Looks cool! I’d love to see local buynothing groups have a Fediverse alternative.

Out of curiosity, is there any standard or common format around location data for Fediverse platforms?

@pwalker@discuss.tchncs.de, I’m seeing some reports on this post that this is a meme / shitpost (screenshots from a TV show) and not actually a photo. It’s possible you aren’t seeing those reports due to cross-instance moderation issues
