    Agreed with this one really. "3 copies of your data, in 2 physical locations, equals 1 backup" has been my thing for a long time.

    I used to just keep my third copy one a drive in my desk at the office, but I've been full remote for years now.

    Thanks for the reminder, I need to see if I can convince my folks to host a NAS in their hobby room or something.

    I looked into this once (lol a couple weeks ago). Its supposed to enable "live" pages, so that on the new tab, new threads are added without having to manually refresh the page. I dont think its working though.

    It would end up with behavior like the lemmy bug that had new posts just show up and take over your page. Not sure its something we even want if im right.

    That being said, i could be wrong on the above. @ernest would know.

    @TGRush

    for me any of the up/downvote, click in to view, or boost counts.

    I'm a scroller, but, like, if i see a joke in https://lemmy.world/c/dadjokes then i can chuckle and give it an upvote but i dont have to click in and load the thread fully. But the next time i load the page id lke to not have to scroll past that same thread to see new stuff.

    If i downvote something id like to not see it again on the next load. If i open a thread and read the comment posts, i dont need to see that thread again on tne next load.

    That sort of thing.

    It does have some downsides in that finding threads i /sort-of/ remember and want to check again is harder, but i'm used to that.

    Didn't OpenAI put out their interface to dreamstudio as an open source project a while ago?

    That may be easier to use GUI wise, though I have not tried it.

    Iirc it was just a front end to their company hosted API, but the intent was to allow it to hook into other backbends like auto1111 at some point.

    @DaughterOfMars

    For #1 - ive thought about that.

    My thought would be something like a small LDAP type server. Self-hostable. You make a user like myuser@mydomain.net and its honored as a log in for the various fediverse stuff.

    So like it could hold the subsciptions for the communities on the various threadiverse servers you connect to localy, and when you open say lemmy.ml, part of the info sent for your user would be a list of communities you are subscibed to on lemmy.ml.

    If it just handles the user auth, then it could also be a user auth for other fedivers stuff too. PixelFed, and Mastodon, etc. Each service could have its own sub section of the user object's info.

    You would still probably end up with a "home" instance you would use, but if that home instance becomes untenable, or goes away, then you would just pick a new instance and log in there with your myuser@mydomain.net account.

    Im not a good enough dev to code it, but thats my idea anyway.

    @Alexmitter

    I've noticed that that doesn't always work. User profile pictures can be NSFW and still be shown. And the 'random' posts box will show NSFW images sometimes as well.

    It's something to be looked at to make sure all the edge cases are covered, so that the "show NSFW" check box being unchecked actually does prevent all NSFW stuff from being shown.

    I'm not worried about it too much. It's just growing pains as the #threadiverse gets on its feet. The devs will fix it in the code, and until then the user can block stuff manually, which is what I have been doing.
