Very useful, even for someone who has been using Linux for many years. Sometimes you just forget or need that tool you rarely use. tldr can be much handier than parsing a man page when you’re in a pinch.

I use the tealdeer implementation, but any is fine really.

Never knew about prelockd, seems like a pretty neat and useful idea, thanks!

There’s no real way to do it. Unless you know someone who can trade you XMR<->cash and you somehow convince your employer to (break laws and) pay you in those forms, you can’t avoid it. At some point, you’ll have to get money on a real bank account, which requires real information to open.

As far as I know, modern cards don’t just send your CC info to terminals, they do some form of a cryptographic handshake (probably a pubkey signature or similar) which gets confirmed by your bank. I believe Caveman was talking more about online shopping, where you have to enter your card number, expiration date, CVC and often your name too.

Great comment, cheers!

The pending subscription is a known thing. If you retract the subscription and then redo it, it should be good. If not, wait a bit and retry. You may have to reload the page so see the button change to “Subscribed”.

Not sure about the other though. In my experience, purging and refetching a community will always fix it… :/

I’ll pass this post to the admin Matrix chat (which you should join), since it’s important to have this kind of info publicly and readily available as well.

This is kinda obscure in the grand scheme of things, and will realistically not going to happen, but I’d love if the /r/EthosLab community moved here :P

And of course, a bigger portuguese presence (I run a portuguese instance hehe).

The Matrix is a classic for me too.

Possibly the first Pirates of the Caribbean. Dunno exactly how many times I’ve watched, but it’s close to 10. It’s such an iconic movie, with excellent scenarios, acting, and so revolutionary at the time.
I’ve watched some older Pixar movies (from their golden age imo) a bunch of times, like Monsters Inc and Nemo, as well as the masterpiece Shrek 2 from DreamWorks.

Wrong community for this type of questions. Please see !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml.

Even though there are plenty of great and quickly evolving mobile apps, I use the web interface both on desktop and mobile devices. It’s actually quite good, and since I’m a mod and instance admin, the feature completeness is key. Apps are not there yet.

If your instance blocks it, it may be the case they allow community creation through a more curated process. Look for any meta-community (i.e one about the instance itself) and see if there’s any info on it.

It rendered as a link for me, because I’m on 0.18.1 already (RC). Mobile apps might not support it yet.

This is an area of very much needed improvement.

For users, you should use the completion popup. When you type an @ followed by a name it will suggest users matching that, and if you click on one it will fill out a mention with the link to their origin page.
Give it a shot, try mentioning me in a reply!

The issue with this is the link isn’t portable, meaning it may get you out of your home instance. The best way to link any user or community is to do /u/name@origininstance.tld (for users; /c/ for communities) instead of https://origininstance.tld/u/name. That way the link is relative (so no issue of moving away from your home) and it’s fully qualified (so no issue with name clashes between instances).

Thank you! :3

Yeah, the default sorting behavior contributes quite a bit.

I’ve loved the idea behind Lemmy since I first discovered. At first, I was using lemmy.ml, but then I saw the opportunity to provide a nice space and expand my sysadmin skills. Since there was no Portuguese instance yet, I thought why not create one?
Since then, I’ve met more people hosting Portuguese services and it has been great :D

For funding, I’m working on two ways: the typical donations and trying to secure support from local FOSS organizations. At the moment, the server costs are not prohibitive and there have been some donations already. I’ve also been talking to some of those orgs and it’s going well :)

that’s also a good one for sure 👀

ooh that’s an interesting idea for sure, might snatch it :P

I’ve settled on Manjaro with KDE on my current laptop. On my next one, I’ll probably move to plain Arch. Alpine is quite cool as well.
