How is it already a scam site???


Genuine question: does this mean that PieFed is now no longer ActivityPub compliant? Is it not fully part of the Threadiverse anymore, and is now its own little subset of that? Even Mbin still accepted vote counts, even though it added boosts (“increases” and “reductions” iirc?) on top of them.
Let’s not catastrophise. Piefed is still ActivityPub compliant, or as compliant as it was. Nothing in the spec says you have to accept an activity, it’d be pretty nonsensical if it did because moderation wouldn’t be possible.
Could you tell from your look at the code if PieFed is only throttling its own users internally, prior to votes federating out, or throttling incoming votes from Lemmy as well?
It’s throttling incoming votes as well, you can see that here. It honestly wouldn’t make much sense if it didn’t, though it is irksome that it blocks announcing the vote to other instances. That makes piefed comms something the really active users will avoid.
Also this is so ridiculously easy to get around: most of us have a variety of obvious and self-acknowledged alts across the Threadiverse, but I doubt PieFed is going to maintain a mapping among all of them
Even if they tried to do that, people would just stop being forthcoming with their alts.


My 241st vote when it realises it’s going to a piefed instance:



You said in the release notes that this was about server load, but now it’s about people voting too much for your tastes? 14K unique people cast at least one vote in the past day, I really doubt 10 people are having a great impact on the rankings. And if you think people are bots manipulating the rankings, then wouldn’t it be better to bring it up in the admin chats so they get banned?
Also, what’s the methodology you’ve used there? You say the top voter has 23K votes, but from feddit.uk’s data the top voter is at 19K, who happens to be a p.s user mind you.


Wow, this chart is genuinely great. You must be so mad about today’s news.


Both, by the looks of it.


Do you need to be logged in to view it, because I can’t see it: https://piefed.social/u/flamingos@feddit.uk.
Edit: Yes, you do: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/commit/918731bb80ee739d4b9963ce64acbbfd3f6afb41/app/user/routes.py#L121


Vote quota?


I know, I read the description. It just looks like a nicer syntax around setting up a tokio runtime and sending code between runtimes. It’d still be nice to have a non-tokio options so stuff could be single threaded.


Fallout 4 maybe? The main gameplay loop is gathering junk to get parts to improve your equipment.


Huh, that pretty cool actually. I need to play around and see if this works with gtk-rs, channels get fairly annoying if you need to use them a lot.


It’s because they misspelt oestrogen, the govt wasn’t sure what they were talking about.


And if you find the borrow checker annoying in async rust, that’s mostly a tokio issue. Look into smol-rs as it offers alternatives
This is great until you want to use a library which is tokio exclusive, which is most of them.


So? It’s logname, what do you expect, for them to read the bits directly from memory? If you’re going to criticise this for anything, it should be that it doesn’t support Windows, not that it calls out to libc.


This is correct and fine?


YDM. This also happened a month ago, don’t know why you’re bringing it up now.
Evan Prodromou recently launched tags.pub, which is a service that creates a bunch of accounts that boost hashtags. People on the masto side didn’t like that it was opt out, and getting their notifications spammed.
Is this about that new hashtag instance Prodromou launcher?
Looking at it, it’s weird that it doesn’t respect indexable flag on profiles, instead saying you need to add a hashtag to your bio to opt out?
Huh, so this is how I discover neither futurology or fedinsfw have registration applications enabled. Their admins probably should change that.
