Slick! My feedback:

• Consider respecting the user agents color scheme preference (I like to have light mode on day and dark mode on night — don’t overwrite that without my permission if you already have both themes).
• Contrast is too low in the dark theme and way too low (basicly unusable) in the light theme.
• Consider increasing font size, esp. for code blocks
• For me it’s wierd that posts are kinda centered but not really. Since most (not all) languages are left to right, I’m used to start looking on the left side, not the right. Consider centering the post properly.
• Consider making the hover animations faster.
• In dark mode, the icon button hover text is black on dark gray and therefore basicly unreadable.

What is this dot between the three-dot menu button and the time stamp?

Personally, I don’t really like that the post is displayed transparently over the post list. This makes it a lot harder for me to focus on the content. Maybe I’m not the target group for a design like this.

And for 80$/month you can get 25Gbps!

It did take forever when I tried the last time. Literally hours.

social.digitalcourage.de and mastodon.green both are Mastodon server with a (paid) membership model.

Just installed NixOS with Wayland and Gnome the other day on my laptop with Nvidia card. I had to tune the config a bit, but it works flawless now – notably also with the offload command. That’s fine for me though because it saves considerable energy if the GPU only runs on request.

Apostrophe. The perfect, slick markdown editor.

You can go to settings > customize and turn off pull to refresh if you want.

uBlock Origin would be my number one, but they don’t take donations. So my list would roughly contain:

• Organic Maps
• Thunderbird
• Internet Archive
• Codeberg

I’d like to donate to Firefox as well, but Mozilla spends too much for the wrong things and AFAIK it’s not possible to only support Firefox development.

Deleting storage and cache (both) worked for me.

Yup, good perspective on Zootopia… uhm, the Fediverse.

A network of (“thousands of”) servers has — like most things — pros and cons.

Some of the pros are:

• The network is more resiliant against outages. If lemmy.ml is down, all other users can still access the network.
• It’s hard to take legal action against the network or to buy it out (like Big Players™ like to do to get rid of potential competitors).
• It allows various similar or even conflicting moderation policies. The network, i.e. the infrastructure doesn’t allow or prohibit any specific opinion (the communities do).
• It allows for different ways to pay the bills: goodwill of the admin, donaitions, ads, fee or selfhosting. The latter also allows great control over the data so you control your privacy.

Some of the cons are:

• Content is replicated across servers, which increases the total amount of data stored.
• Latency and speed suffer.
• Interoperability with the wider Fediverse is less than 100%, which can create confusion and frustration.
• Discovery is more difficult.
