YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.

All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.



Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:

**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.



Partnered Communities:

Knowing reddit they just forgot to cancel it and the changes will be implemented in like 3 years.

However i cant stand spez anymore and fuck em. I deleted all of my accounts (Or more gave them to scammers...)

God reddit is such a clownshow.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

This is actually hilarious. They are so incompetent that they can't even be competently bad at their job!

Sidenote: I also love the pettiness of Internet culture sometimes, creating sites to crawl reddit and Twitter but strip out ads. I don't know if these existed before this whole debacle, but I like to imagine they were created out of sheer spite and not privacy concerns or whatever legitimate reason was probably the real motivation.

They cancelled Apollo early.

Bastards

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hasn't Cristian just thrown the towl and canceled it himself?

Anyway, after the shit spez said i would have sued him, but idk if thats possible in USA/Canada.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That was after Reddit pulled the plug early.

He did a post about it in mastodon

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Haven't seen it but ok.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same. Delted 2 accounts with over 100k Karma, and all of the posts, comments, votes, etc.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For me it was about 20 Accounts with a total of 3 million karma...

So, y'all might want to double check your old accounts on Reddit, because they are pulling this shit and restoring deleted accounts, with particularly high karma

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I deleted the accounts with GDPR help, i don't think they want to disobey that law...

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

From what I've seen others post. It'll only work for a certain amount of "interactions" and then it'll stop. It's as if the app has a certain amount of "old" API requests saved up for you. Once you run out though you'll get errors.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't know if it's the same, but the developer of Relay got a deal where the app will still work until he figures out the API pricing subscriptions.

All NSFW posts will be blocked on all 3PA starting tomorrow tho.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm surprised that they're only introducing them later, rather than slapping the changes on all at once.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Boost also didn't stop working. People speculate that the API changes aren't in effect yet. Don't celebrate to early. I'm pretty sure they will go through with it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I don't know if I agree with this as BaconReader quit working right away on the 1st.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sync doesnt work anymore. Have to use the workaround.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I'm glad Lj took the Sync for R***** apps off the app store. The only way I would use R***** is through Sync, and I Do Not want to use R***** any more. He's coming out with a Sync for Lemmy so keep your eyes out. You can sign up for a mailing list to be notified when it does release.

True. I tapped on I finite for reddit and it too somehow just worked.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

What I've been hearing is that Infinite is planning to switch to a paid model and has basically negotiated an extension while they make the code changes necessary to start using the paid API model. But that extension will run out at some point and then to continue using Infinity, you'll have to start paying.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Joey for reddit is also working still. Not sure what's going on, the dev hasn't broken his silence for weeks now so maybe some negotiations going on? Who knows.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I get that too.
