Ahh yes, our codebase has this fixed... its the upgrade to all the other stuff that is overwhelming and holding me back... its more than i can catchup with alone and despite offering to pay to hire someone to help no one as stepped up.... So i am struggling to get the code releasable even though this specific problem has been fixed int he code.
There are other issues behind the scenes too that are harder to explain .I have a system admin who helps run the code itself but he is trying to move away from custom hosting and thus ont he next release we need to prepare to move servers and me taking over without his help... which just adds to the fact that I have no help and we have gotten too big for me to go alone in terms of time commitement to keep up on code, release, and admin.
I have more freetime now so **maybe** i can catch up... but doing **everything** with no technical help is still a lot on a custom code base.
I agree with this... unless someone is intentionally blasting hate at me for the sake of hate, id rather not blocka nd disengage.
Coooool, thanks for hte share ill look into it.

not (just) grub, no. it's a new gnu project, still release candidate, a distribution of boot firmware for motherboards, the stuff that loads the boot loader. the flashable images contain grub though, because it's convenient.

you may have heard of GNU Libreboot before. it used to be free software, but it left GNU and then forked things up to embrace, expand and enable binary blobs to take away the freedom from its users. GNU boot is the continuation of what Libreboot should have never ceased to be, and thus the deserving recipient of all the praise and recommendation we used to place on Libreboot back when it deserving of that name, before it became Lie-breboot

I was just about to say something similar... the other thing that prevents open communication is if you go to a thread and there is so much hateful spam that doesnt even attempt to be constructive or have a conversation that the thread becomes tedious to follow or interact on at all.... so people who want a conversation just avoid it and the problem gets worse.
The only way to have healthy open communication is if you have filtering on some level... obviously filtering can be abused too so you have to address both sides for the viewer.... this I like louis's solution, one that empowers everyone to see what they want.
I mean hell i shouldnt be **forced** to see something just because I need to have open communication... if i dont want open communication, as idiotic as that is, that is my right.. I should be able to see what i want to see, and filter what i dont.
Ohhhh ok, yea that makes sense, youd have to turn that on to see replies regardless.
Their full name is Michael Seymour Jackson :)
> if you followed the hidden replier and have replies turned on in your home feed.
Only criticism of your reply i have here is id change "and" to "or" ... if you have replies turned on you should be able to see replies even if the author suggested they be hidden. This should be true regardless of if you follow the person replying.
Sounds like we mostly agree except for one small fact... a author can suggest which posts viewers might want to mute.. and viewers can, if they want, automatically take that suggestion, or (like you) decide not to.
As a #SCUBA diver I can confirm this is what they actually sound like!
@kilroy_was_here I was quite happy with brave actually. Reason i switched is for many months nowpop up dialogs were broken so i couldnt save or upload images. I was hoping a future update would fix it, as it is a known problem... but after many months i gave up.
@cyrilpedia Cool cosplay.
Why is there a glove on only one hand though?
Just noticed that, thanks for pointing it out...
Ok then yea this seems like a bit of an idiotic view and he should know better.
@kilroy_was_here I mean there is a certainly unhealth pathology behind someone wanting to control the narrative among people talking about something they want to say... like a huge pathology... and I get looking at that with a bit of disgust... I'm just not sure people like this realize just how ugly it looks, in fact they probably think they are doing good by "curating" a pleasant environment in their replies.
@LouisIngenthron as long as readers have the option to turn it off or ignore it i wouldnt have a problem with it..
like there should be a check box, off by default, in settings that says "hide posts the author suggests you to hide"
@realcaseyrollins hahah, he has actually been pretty reasonable with me. Even if his opinion doesnt seem so reasonable.
@kilroy_was_here Im not sure he deserves that level of hate... I think he comes from a world where he is used to there being a single curtate view of a conversation with the author in control... he isnt used to a distributed world where everyone can pick their view without one dictator.
Yea mastodon has that too, all services would let you delete it for yourself. But others viewing the thread can still see it,a s they should.
