There’s an existing cure for most chronic diseases. Unfortunately, no one seems to care, so it will likely never be available.
OP, given your knowledge of news media, perhaps you have some ideas of how to get coverage of the issue? I’ve written to dozens of news outlets about it.
There’s a citation there. You didn’t want to click it and learn something new?
EDIT: Interesting. The majority of people on lemmy are anti-learning…
There’s a github issue request to solve this:
Add a local user setting to filter out image / meme posts, similar to NSFW filtering https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4988
Tildes is NOT a good website to recommend.
I made a Tildes account many years ago when it first started up. I knew the founder was a Reddit admin, and I’d heard that it was a haven for Reddit admins & power-mods, but I hadn’t spent much time there.
I recently made a post about the problems with Reddit, and while there were intelligent people and comments on there, the majority of votes went to people who were being extremely dishonest, and even outright lying; attacking me in every way possible while urging the admin to ban me. Neutral people don’t behave like that. So they couldn’t have made it more obvious that Tildes is merely an extension of authority-figures-of-Reddit with a different UI. All the same problematic people & behaviors exist there.
Based on the accusations one of them was making, and my history they were pulling up, one of them was either a Reddit admin or someone in cahoots with one of the Reddit admins that banned me. Tildes is invite-only, and the main accounts attacking me were brand new.
The Tildes admin removed my comments debunking the lies they were telling, and deleted my account.
I use Ecosia instead of Google, but I know that Google recently added a “forums” category to the top of their search. Have you tried that? Hopefully it will help bring back to life independent forums.
none of the major providers will deliver your email without your mail server having first built a reputation
There are definitely major, and easily-abusable “features” being implemented by the major email providers, but I don’t think your statement is correct. I have a Hetzner server, and I can receive email from it (to Gmail) just fine, as long as I have SPF, DMARC, and DKIM set up. I can also create a new server with a new IP and not have any issues. The issues may arise with shared IPs/ranges that are also being used by spammers. Otherwise, if you’re planning to send bulk email you just need to warm up the IP.
Yes, I think so.
There are public instances: https://searx.space/
This is one someone previously suggested, and the one I tried that seems to work well: https://search.disroot.org/ - I see it’s not in the list above though. Not sure why.
I’ve been testing other search engines, and I found that SearX/SearXNG and Mojeek both turn up results for smaller websites that Google puts in 50th place for the exact title of the website/page.
I ran into a similar problem with snapshots of a forum and email server – if there are scheduled emails when you take the snapshot they get sent out again if you create a new test server from the snapshot. And similarly for the forum.
I’m not sure what the solution is either. The emails are sent via an SMTP so it’s not as simple as disabling email (ports, firewall, etc.) on the new test server.
Why would you want a lemmy.ml link though?
That’s where the thread is. It was created on lemmy.ml and crossposted to lemmy.world. When crossposting from lemmy.ml to lemmy.world it says “crossposted from lemmy.world”, which is wrong and confusing, and defeats the purpose of crossposting (informing people about similar communities or other instances).
It sounds like you’re saying it’s impossible, but I’m doubtful of that. Currently there is no fediverse link for the thread, so I think one could be added that links to the lemmy.ml post. I crossposted from lemmy.ml and the crosspost should say so.
If the devs conclude it’s not possible or wanted, that’s fine. But this is my feedback.
The “fediverse link” on a post
I’m only seeing those links on comments, not the thread. Has it always been like that?
“The instance of the person who posted it” seems to be reasonable for comments, but not the thread.
That’s how it’s always worked??? The fediverse button goes to the canonical source
Maybe it didn’t exist on posts but only comments? I see it on your comment but not the OP/thread.
Years and years of reddit getting more and more problematic and lower quality:
Reddit is dangerous. The admins are out of control. Humanity needs a viable alternative.
Exact kind of troll, low-quality comment that poisons most of this website. As is the reply by FuglyDuck.
I have the exact same frustration. Reddit has been a complete mess for years. Unfortunately, Lemmy is only slightly better, and still seems to be astroturfed and filled with overconfident, unintelligent people who spread misinformation. I shared the link above on one of the /c/reddit lemmy communities and it was heavily astroturfed and then deleted by a mod for a ridiculous reason.
I posted in various other communities about a completely different topic and the only intelligent response I received was a PM.
I’ve blocked close to a hundred “fluff” (low-quality) communities on Lemmy, so my feed is highly curated. But the fluff/low-quality communities vastly outnumber the high-quality ones. One of the problems may simply be that intelligent people are rare, and are not spending their time on sites like Lemmy.
People keep making threads about this, and speculating that Lemmy might be astroturfed by people who don’t want to see it succeed. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a viable solution. You would need extremely competent and active moderators, or we have to wait until AI becomes advanced enough to neutrally and accurately moderate.
This is one reason I opted to move my Reddit communities to a forum instead of Lemmy. The problem with that is small forums don’t show up on search engines. Some forum software teams are joining the fediverse though, so that should help. But not all forums have intelligent people either, so it’s definitely a struggle to find these days.
How about a basic Squarespace business website?
I looked at a bunch of options before and Wordpress seemed like one of the most promising: https://lemmy.world/post/12989654
He didn’t teach you very well. Stop spreading harmful misinformation.
And to the people upvoting the misinformation, you really need to do some basic research and critical thinking first. Why would there be hundreds of FMT clinical trials around the world for curing chronic diseases if it were so easy with probiotics? Why would 60%+ of Americans have a chronic disease if you could simply cure them with probiotics?
It makes it seem very possible that the comment and upvotes above are deliberate astroturfing by the pharmaceutical industry.
