Snowcano, in StarTrek.website has updated to Lemmy version 0.19.3 (Clear cache/cookies in browser or remove+re-add account in app if experiencing login issues)

I’m so happy I can now block entire instances! Thanks for the hard work!!

EmergMemeHologram, in StarTrek.website has updated to Lemmy version 0.19.3 (Clear cache/cookies in browser or remove+re-add account in app if experiencing login issues)

In Mlem you need to confirm your account before deleting it from the app, so I actually had to delete the whole app

Works now though.

Glad to see this as I did all the above and it’s still not working in Mlem. I’ll give this a try though.

EmergMemeHologram,

Yeah try deleting the app, check your phones storage in settings > general > storage and search for Mlem. If you delete it it will remove all data from your phone, then you can reinstall and sign in again.

Got home and giving it a shot now, I’ll write back for others seeing it too. 👍

Edit: You we’re 100% correct, deleting the app worked perfectly. Removing the account from Mlem did nothing and clearing browser cache did nothing. Weird bug for this version. 🤔

@bradboimler@startrek.website avatar

Fixed works great now had to do it both for browser and voyager thanks for the update. Also could you post this on Mastodon update page startrek.website would not load this post until i cleared cache would be helpful.

@Admin@startrek.website avatar

Way ahead of ya! Glad you got it working.

EDIT: You were ahead of me! OK

klemptor, in StarTrek.website has updated to Lemmy version 0.19.3 (Clear cache/cookies in browser or remove+re-add account in app if experiencing login issues)

Yep, in Jerboa I had to delete & readd my account too. Thanks for the informative post! :)

Sgt_choke_n_stroke, in Survey reveals tough job market for Gen Z grads due to employer preferences

This reads like those shitty china articles where the nation’s youth are unemployed

ghostblackout, in NASA’s Artemis mission to take humans back to the Moon has been delayed until 2025

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

downpunxx, in "For All Mankind" season ending coming up - Star Trek fan thoughts?
@downpunxx@kbin.social avatar

For All Mankind is the best actual science fiction show on television, hands down, bar none. For the uninitiated think The Martian, but where the space race never ended, because Russia landed on the moon first. It's so good, I hope it never ends

corsicanguppy,

I canceled apple TV because of so many issues on a non-apple browser, and the struggle to do THAT makes me reluctant to sign back up.

I’d almost do that for this show.

Corgana, in I'm getting tired of making generally bad OC
@Corgana@startrek.website avatar

I checked your post history to see if your memes were dank but I didn’t see much OC?

jawa21,

All of the gifs/edits are. I deleted a couple because of bad hosting issues.

vanderbilt, in Tech Billionaires Need to Stop Trying to Make the Science Fiction They Grew Up on Real
@vanderbilt@beehaw.org avatar

A lot of the sci-fi of the era was based off of the assumption that corporate power would rise to rival that of governments. That runaway capitalism would birth “high-tech low-life” as the state of society at large. Yes, the stars are aligning between the interests of the powerful in the present, and the future postulated in those stories; those stories were made on the basis of human nature and self-reflections on the contemporary. They are being proven right because they assumed plausible futures with likely outcomes. Want a solar punk world? We have to buck the trend and disrupt the trajectory we’re on now. Will we have pivotal moment like that of Americana circa 1929, or slide further in a hellscape? I know what future I want but I don’t know if we’re going to get it.

sbv, in 2023 in social media: the case for the fediverse

It’ll be interesting to see how the Fediverse moves forward without direct monetization.

We’ve seen Usenet become more of a niche platform because it’s hard to monetize. Meanwhile, the popular social platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) are dripping in ads, which make it easier for them to build and maintain developer teams.

I want the Fediverse to succeed, but I have a hard time seeing how it can compete for average users without paid developer hours.

ValueSubtracted,
@ValueSubtracted@startrek.website avatar

Money is possibly the biggest concern when it comes to running an instance - it can be difficult to sustain donations over time.

I know the Lemmy devs have, or at least did have, some grants that were helping keep them afloat, but they still rely on donations from users.

Corgana,
@Corgana@startrek.website avatar

The development of New Exciting Features™ will probably be slower on nonprofit systems, but the enormous costs of moderation will be effectively zero, while simultaneously improving in quality. My prediction for what we’ll eventually see is “fun” ad-supported commercial platforms (assuming they can afford moderation), and a somewhat more “serious” discussion-based Fediverse.

ValueSubtracted, in Flipboard Begins to Federate
@ValueSubtracted@startrek.website avatar

The Verge has a story on this, too:

“Basically, we’re in the process of replacing our whole social back-end with ActivityPub,” says Flipboard CEO Mike McCue. “I think Flipboard is going to be the first mainstream consumer service that existed in a walled garden that switches over to ActivityPub.”
