That's how you know it's a KDE app.

[–] markz@suppo.fi 2 points 57 minutes ago

G for old gtk app would be funnier.

bro are you just mass-crossposting things from reddit or what? Those camel case titles aren't really common here, you know.

[–] MousePotatoDoesStuff@piefed.social 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

If they are, that's good for Lemmy.

Helps with the network effect.

[–] shnizmuffin@lemmy.inbutts.lol 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

"Network effect."

It's spam.

But it's not. U see any ads ? do you want to continue enjoying quality memes once a month instead?

[–] sanitation@lemmy.radio -5 points 1 hour ago (5 children)

Yeah I'm testing new reposting tool. Why

When posting in communities in the instance please follow the automation guidelines (Section 2 and 3 match the most) https://legal.programming.dev/docs/automation-guidelines/

Notably the section that says 75% of recent content should be human created not automatic and accounts with automation should be marked as such

It tends to make each individual post do worse as well when theyre spammed like this at once

There are less than 8k MAUs in this community, it doesn't need a firehose of memes from elsewhere.

[–] sanitation@lemmy.radio 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Ok. Duly noted. Again I was just testing something.
You think 8k may is a chicken and an egg problem though? It seems like like there is no content so there are no users - I'm just trying to fix that is that ok if we bump lemmy userbase?

At least space the posts out. No more than 1 per hour. And even then that gets annoying when one community is dominated by one poster.

[–] Giloron@programming.dev 1 points 5 minutes ago

Even that may be too much. If my limited feed is full of memes, I'll unsubscribe.

[–] Sphks@jlai.lu 1 points 27 minutes ago* (last edited 25 minutes ago)

I like it if it's curated (manualy selected to be the best of). I remember mass posting things from Digg to Reddit 17 years ago.

[–] RustyNova@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

Add a source link toward old.reddit. Even if reddit is terrible, we shouldn't stoop as low as not giving proper attribution.

Also send git :3

[–] sanitation@lemmy.radio 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I'll add it. I'm just testing now.

[–] nkk@programming.dev 1 points 58 minutes ago* (last edited 58 minutes ago)

Even better, use a Redlib instance instead of old.reddit

[–] sanitation@lemmy.radio -3 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (2 children)

Git? Like Microsoft GitHub? Why give Microsoft traffic?

[–] RustyNova@lemmy.world 1 points 2 minutes ago

There's other guy forges than GitHub. Like gitlab, codeberg, etc...

[–] bitfucker@programming.dev 2 points 59 minutes ago

He means to ask if you tool is open sourced. If so, he wanted to look at the code

[–] schnurrito@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

because when I wrote the above comment, around 80% or 90% of my lemmy homepage was just your posts, which felt kinda spammy

[–] sanitation@lemmy.radio 1 points 1 hour ago

So thats about to change. There will be a lot more content On lemmy
