Because nobody has written the code to make it “not function like that”.

No

Can’t be purchased standalone. Part of a prebuilt only.

Lemmy.world is hosted in Finland. 230 is not applicable.

Lots of steps to “figure it out”. Could’ve just pinged the hostname.

Not a big secret. Pretty sure they even announced it.

As you suspect, only during the sixty or so seconds that they are valid.

SMS-based codes tend to be longer lived.

They're useless without your other authentication factors, e.g. login, password.

Highly depends on the quality of the sidewalk. While I love the aesthetic of my neighborhood much of the sidewalk is barely maintained brick and cobbles. Wheelchairs are safer in the road in many areas.

Funny thing being that the only reason SONY is in gaming was to screw Nintendo. They had a hardware partnership that fell apart because SONY was putting the thumbscrews to Nintendo over revenue sharing. Nintendo said, you’re not the only one who can provide what we need, and dumped them. PlayStation was the direct result.

Lemmy, itself, does NOT collect or store IP addresses. You won’t find this information in the Lemmy database/application.

However, your IP address will be captured in the webserver logs themselves, which is typical for any connections to any webserver.

I’ll raise you with… “I know I’m looking for something. What the hell am I looking for?”

No worries. The sorting and filtering algorithms definitely need some love.

You’re following up to a post made almost 3 months ago so it’s not surprising you’ve seen similar since.

Can’t speak for kbin but Lemmy doesn’t collect or store IP addresses at all.

In addition to the reasons already mentioned, Apple has a requirement that applications have a novel component. While it’s often questionable as to what is considered “novel” Weather applications get contrasted against the built-in weather app. If the app simply duplicates the functionality it will be rejected.

BC titles remain available through the current store.

True dat. I’ve been running it about seven weeks and am pulling about 700 communities. Most have near zero traffic but the high volume ones do add up.

I use Lemmy Community Seeder. Every four hours it checks the top posts on instances you specifies and automatically subscribes you to communities that appear there but you aren’t already subscribed to. You can tweak it to ignore specific communities or instances.

None (by Lemmy), as Lemmy doesn’t actually request the image (that would be proxying). Your browser requests the image directly by URL. Lemmy, technically, doesn’t even know an image exists. It just provides the HTML and lets your browser do the work.

AppleTV + Infuse = zero transcoding. Add that Apple will be allowing VPN on device with the release of tvOS 17 and it’s pretty much the perfect kit if you’re willing to spend the extra dollars.

I really hope you’ve considered how much storage you’re going to need to sustain this.
