Thanks for sharing! Honestly this would deserve its own post - hope people learning see this!

I also extensively use browser tools on my learning path and try to read stuff online since I can translate and instantly take notes. Pretty neat that you have an extension to do all that and that there’s an API you can use. I use my Joplin notes but might have to consider something similar…

And yeah resources are plenty it seems and that’s good. German also has plenty of online resources so I’m happy, but sadly many other languages don’t have much yet :(

I struggle with german as well, mostly because I sometimes assume things that just are wrong (when I’m guessing the meaning of a figure of speech).

Hoping you’ll enjoy your reads!

Are you using anki or somethings else for your reviews? And those kind of things are sooo useful to be able to actually use the language, keep it up!!

Sending you my motivational energy to support yours ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Hope you can push through! Motivation is temporary, your habits will carry you through!

That sounds like a good plan. I can recommend writing them down on a paper with a pen to reinforce your memory.

And yeah - apps are convenient but my experience with learning through apps wasn’t the best. A course book helped a lot (but that does require more self discipline I admit).

It’s … Stagnant :( thanks for asking though! Real life has been a bit tough. I feel like I’ll need another course in autumn to get my momentum back.

That would be awesome!

Since the page doesn’t have about or info page I’ll add the link to the repo of threadiverse.link: https://github.com/RikudouSage/lemmyverse.link

I thought lemsha.re stopped working - guess not, that’s good news! And such a cool feature by the dev with the voyager link. Haven’t tried that feature out yet (voyager is my personal favourite lemmy app).

Ah must remember wrong or maybe it was proposed!

Yeah the software would need to know, but in a way “lemmy” knows because it knows which instances your instance is federating with. If your instance isn’t federating with the link target it cant find it anyway.

Same as the ! Exclamation mark for communities or @ for users it can do a look up (you can put my link to your search input in lemmy and it will find it), but there would be otherways to achieve this too.

But yeah it would be really nice to have some universal way like the ! And @ signs to point to another fedi post/comment.

No problem, I feel like fedistuff is so scattered and hidden that it’s always worth mentioning your favourite tools :)

The frontends and apps do redirect embedded links in comments no? E.g. if you click this it should automatically use your instance to find the comment (even though its a link to my instance): https://sopuli.xyz/comment/17606535

Or maybe you mean when you paste an url to the browser that it should automatically redirect to your instance? If so thats tad bit difficult. There was once a post that proposed something like a activityPub/lemmy URI scheme where links would look like this:

activitypub://<postorcommentidentifier>

But I don’t remember where that conversation led and also I have no idea how feasible that would be.

Edit: added words

I agree with the other answers here, however if you share the link to another fediuser outside of the platform (e.g matrix) I really like sharing with threadiverse.link.

Edit: an example using your post with threadiverse link (used my local instance to copy the post): https://threadiverse.link/sopuli.xyz/post/29845043

You set your instance once into the cookies and it will always redirect to yours.

Can’t have nice things because of these kinds of idiots. They should go touch some grass…

Interesting. We have an official comaps community on !CoMaps@sopuli.xyz that is linked on comaps page and one of the main devs posts there. Wonder if they made that user?

First, as others have stated: this is misleading, but that is fine as many maps are misleading and discussion around it is good so people who don’t often look at data or maps get more critical of what they see. An image with data but no sources is to be taken with a grain of salt.

Second (related to the first), where is the source. I could not find this map on US Air Quality Index so I guess its an app that pulls data from there (so they might be interpreting the data wrong or just took a snapshot of a specific datetime or whatever. Also I couldn’t even find data for europe on their website).

I went to reddit and here’s the original post that also lacks the source and the comments are pretty much the same as here.

I had a look and determined I need bit more time for this all than just today (long work day and a lot of additional info + need to get into lemmy-ui codebase a bit).

You’ve got some good points there, thank you! I’m not a UI or UX expert but it’s a bit of a challenge reducing the amount of clicks and still keeping it mobile friendly without creating a screen full of options with several scrolls needed to reach the actual search, but I agree the goal should be less-actions.

I think once I have a bit of a grasp on the project I’ll try and submit my suggestion.

Will do, thank you!

Ah good point!

I’ll hopefully manage to set up lemmy-ui locally at home after work and make that pull request - I edited that in with webdev tools since didn’t want to lose that thought before I get home (sorry if this just pollutes the discussion).

Yeah there’s a lot to consider here, good points. The language specific texts too to make it more search selection context based. This would need to be thought through to not make it more confusing.

I’m not a UI or UX expert, but I wonder if it would make the search page nicer if instead of the search target (form select) would be tabs instead of a dropdown since it is distinct selection from the other filters in the search?

using bootstrap tabs (I didn’t put any effort into styling just added bootstrap tabs and removed the form select butto dropdown):

Edit: now that I think about it, the tab might be kinda confusing unless also the other dropdowns are slightly altered to give more context in the current form selection tab, e.g. (text changes):

But yeah I just wanted to throw out ideas, I’m not sure about them myself. The search inside a community is nice addition!

This is pretty cool, thanks for sharing!

(And thanks sunshine for pinning, almost missed this).

I hope my words can lift someone’s mood up! :)

I’ve never bumped into the term before lemmy, but that’s probably because English is not my first language. In my native language it also sounds like that and I wouldn’t use it.

While I personally wouldn’t want this and agree with the comments about simplicity, old forum style, privacy talking points, I just don’t understand why people downvote this post.

It’s a good question that creates good discussion (you know, purpose of lemmy) and doesn’t really lead to anything concrete necessarily. Just interesting discussion.

People use downvote as a disagree button but it does have a real impact on the feed: this post will get buried by some post feed filters and some people will never see the good discussion going on in here.

But to answer the question (even though there are already good answers): I personally think it’s also a stressful feature that will just make people feel like they need to answer to replies / will make lemmy look dead because only a handful of people use anything but “invisible” status.
