Can you give a little overview of what mineclone2 is/includes?

How do the arrs protect you from untrusted uploaders though? Don’t they just automatically download torrents based on the names and number of seeders?

Are you sure you deleted it? Its still there

OCHs?

What do you find on Usenet thats not on torrents?

A UI element for a specific usecase makes the world of difference to get something like this done and made efficient enough so the site can be self sustainable. Unless we want to have days of the year dedicated to donation banners covering the website like wikipedia has to do.

Id rather support the internets library directly than pray the people maintaining it figure out deals to make the people funding it rich at some point

Reddit is clearly owned by Venture Capitalists that are forcing the site to go to shit so they can fill their pockets with ad revenue. If we self funded reddit or forums etc so that we can keep ot sustainable and focused on being the best instead of making a small number of people an infinite amount of money we would still have the reddit we love.

The reason the enshittification of reddit and everything is because at the end of the day bills need to be paid and developers need to take breaks or pass on work to other. Look at how the mobile lemmy app mlem got treated so badly and was too stressed to keep developing it… Servers cost money. Open source software development cost money. Just like Wikipedia i want to support it to ensure it can stay sustainable. Making it easier for people to see the health of the server helps keep it sustainable and alive

Yeah this would be great and much more transparent than how reddit did it

People use third party apps and wont see it in the side bar. Besides having it part of the code will make it easy for each server to easily implement it and it can be automated in the future.

When googling information i usually end the search with “reddit” as Reddit makes it harder to view without signing in to the app i want to be able to google with the word lemmy instead so having the information here is helpful
