the main three solutions i have to #2 are: RSS; userscript; or blocking the OP. i already use RSS a lot, but RSS clients can be arcane to customise the way i want, and i don’t like following aggregators from my aggregator. i’m satisfied with the official web UI.
really looking forward to the post hiding and vote display changes
thanks for the heads up!
whoops, i forgot i have lemmy.world blocked. i don’t see comments or posts from that instance.
still tho, i wasn’t getting the undiscovered 404 on dbzer0.
i don’t know about lemdroid. federation could be backlogged for aforementioned reasons.
the link you gave works fine for me in Firefox: clicking, dragging or pasting. the 404 likely indicates that lemdroid hasn’t discovered that community yet; probably because it’s still waiting to finish asking lemmy.world about it.
how do I interact with a community I cannot connect to?
are you using the website, or an app? i can see the community, but not the posts (presumably because they aren’t synced) (forgot i have lemmy.world blocked).
do you not see the community landing page at all? is there no ‘subscribe’ button? subscribing is the best way to trigger the sync job; i could try doing it for you, but i want to see if it’s possible for you to do it first.
if you’re the first person from your instance to interact with a remote community, it takes a moment for it to sync.
also keep in mind that lemmy.world is too fucking big, so they’re very slow to talk to.
it’s like you wrote:
providing a few predefined options for you […] instead of you having to find the words to explain how uncomfortable you are and what you want the solution to be.
i’m speaking from my experience with script change. it’s a low-friction, consistent way for anyone at the table to communicate both how they’re feeling and an explicit, specific resolution/action that is known to all players with the agreement that no one *needs* to get into details or explain themself. if something shockingly uncomfortable happens, it’s much easier to reflexively lift/tap a card, or type 2 – 3 characters in the chat, than it is to abrasively yell ‘stop!’ and then try to discuss it over.
i’ve seen cases where someone yelling to stop was interpreted to be IC. or that they were just ‘caught up in the moment’. (this is the reason for safewords; the cards are known to be meta/OOC.) or they didn’t completely know where a scene was going, but they had a suspicion, but they didn’t want to disappoint the group, and player safety wasn’t a part of the pregame discussion so they didn’t know how to express their discomfort and froze. the misunderstanding always only lasted some seconds, but it always lasted a few seconds too long for the person in discomfort. if it needs a discussion: ‘pause’ and take five to talk with the GM or another player privately.
in every group where player safety is discussed and safety tools are used: i’ve never seen a scene get far enough to make someone uncomfortable, and it rarely impacts the flow of the game.
How would this work? Do websites with rss feeds normally publish the url to that feed in some standard place?
feeds are usually advertised in the page header as below, with type
set to either application/rss+xml
or application/atom+xml
.
<head>
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Example Feed" href="https://example.com/feed/" />
</head>
Are there any third party extensions that do it?
i don’t know about chrom[e|ium], but i use Awesome RSS for firefox.
You need to enable JavaScript to run this app.
in most places i’ve lived, my physical neighbours did not want to be known, and did not want to know anyone else, either. granted, most of them really only used their apartments/houses as a very expensive sleeping place and nothing more. they didn’t really live in their houses; it was just where they usually slept between working.
even when the neighbours were friendly, there were no common spaces and the housing too small to accommodate get-togethers, and no third places to go to. and the friendly neighbours were always apart of the conspicuously racist pensioner cabal.
