Hello sorcerer. Please erase “Man, I feel like a woman” by Shania Twain. It annoys me anyway, but it not like it makes being a woman sound especially inspiring either (“Colour my hair, do what I dare” - woah, slow down there Shania!). Thanks.

Anything from https://lemmon.website is me too.

Yeah. There’s no wildcard call. One thing you could do to script it would be pull JSONs from https://data.lemmyverse.net - use one for the initial effort, then subsequent ones to track new communities. You’d definitely want to filter it - as you’ve noticed the vast majority of that 30k are dead or spam or something you wouldn’t want for one reason or another (e.g. communities from instances you’ve defederated from).
As for what bots do, it depends on how they were programmed I suppose. There’s a bonkers one on https://leaf.dance that just seems to crawl comments and subscribe to any ! links it finds, but there are others (I can’t remember their names) where it’s more of a manual job (the mods of a community submit the details to it).
is it in reality not “all” but only “all posts that at least one user of this instance is subscribed to”?
Exactly this, yes. Not literally ‘all’ (a brand new instance would have nothing in its All feed). This is what was meant by ‘partial data set’ - everything for a subscribed community (from the moment it was subscribed to), but nothing for a community that no-one’s subscribed to.
Some instances run bots to populated their All feed more than what would happen naturally (with the idea being that the bot unsubscribes when a human does)
Seems like ‘posts’ works okay, but it’s ‘comments’ that don’t (and overview is a mix of both).
API call to see posts:
curl --request GET --url 'https://lemmy.world/api/v3/user?username=beebarfbadger&sort=TopDay&page=1&limit=1' --header 'accept: application/json' | jq .posts[].post.published

API call to see comments:

They probably know about it, but if not it’s probably a good idea to report the bug here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues
Oh this is one of those new-fangled ‘immutable’ OSs. I just watched a PeerTube Video from The Linux Experiment about it - it looks complicated but it’s something I’d like to try out at some point in the future.
Since you’ve broadened it out to TV, I’ll use that as an excuse and mention that I think Nicholas Britell’s score for Andor is pretty cracking too.
This is from ‘Shaun’ btw, who I mostly associate with videos criticising JK Rowling and her controversial friends.
It’s worth the watch, imo (though I can’t claim to be massively informed about the subject, so I have nothing to refute what he is saying). From what I remember, the gist of the video is that Israel is colonial power in a post-colonial world.
I bought the Last of Us 2 upgrade, so I can’t really criticise anyone buying this, but I’ve played this game to it’s absolute death - had every conversation, completed every mission, even played through on the hardest difficulty to get all the trophies - so I can’t imagine ever playing it again. It’s Guerrilla Games’ own fault - if they hadn’t made it so good, they could have had an extra tenner from me.
Crikey - it was only added a few hours ago and it’s already all kicking off on their GitHub’s Issues page.
I don’t think that would be possible. The API is only sending “post_id” and “score” for votes, so the backend has no info on what feed a user used to send it. An instance could modify their official frontend to hide the ability to downvote from Local and All but they couldn’t do anything about people using different frontends (e.g. all the various phone apps)
I think lemmynsfw stopped people who weren’t subscribed to a community from voting in it (because their communities for gay people were getting a lot of downvotes from All). If that’s what you mean. I think it was a hack rather than a setting though (my info might be out of date)
Generally: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues
(As already mentioned, your specific request is a non-starter)
The experience from Brazil suggests that the viable ‘post-twitter’ is BlueSky. So one corporate-controlled platform that starts out okay and gets steadily worse is replaced by another, and the cycle continues.
I don’t think there is a viable ‘post-reddit’ unfortunately , because they built up their userbase at a time when people would actually want to use a link aggregator, before the experience of clicking any external links became fraught and exhausting. So now reddit has the userbase, and they have the means to host images and videos internally, and none of the bots or the lack of API or the general weirdness of the place is enough to get people to leave. Potential competitors assume that they should offer an alternative link aggregator, whereas really the only competitor is something that could magically offer a comparable userbase size.
Tildes website if you’re interested.
And, also unfortunately, he apparently has some fans here based on the downvotes.
Maybe, but every video (or any animated format, really), gets downvoted on Lemmy. At the minute, this vid has the same number of downvotes as ‘Why Aren’t Swing Wing Aircraft Made Any More?’. A link to a remote site, that’s known for serving ads and for being a pain to get back from on mobile, is going to attract downvotes. Some of it depends on how engaging (or not) various front-ends make this kind of content - a comparison between what anyone using lemmy-ui sees and what I see:
Chris Sawyer: I programmed Rollercoaster Tycoon in x86 assembly!
This guy: pfft, what a amateur
The “I’d buy that for a dollar!” guy from Robocop.
You can set a gif’s FPS yeah. There’s an app called gif.ski that lets you play around with this - add a folder full of PNGs to it and render a gif. The lowest the UI lets you select for FPS is 1 - I made one and stuck it here so you can see what that looks like.
You can use the same tool on the command line if you want a half frame per second rate, e.g.:
gifski --output interesting.gif --fps 0.5 --quality 70 *.png
This is why I always say ‘thanks’ to GPT when we’ve finished chatting.
Oh. I subscribed to this post because I hoped someone would be able to give an answer too.
It’s been a day, so before I forget and on the basis that some answer is better than none at all, I’ll have a crack:
400 Bad Request isn’t much to worry about, it doesn’t mean anything is malfunctioning and it can happen for a gazillion reasons. One is you’ve joined a new community and someone Likes a comment you don’t have (particularly if it’s nested in other comments you also don’t have). Another is if someone Likes a post or comment by a user on an instance that you’ve defederated from (your instance is defed’d from lemmygrad and hexbear whereas lemmy.ml isn’t)
As for 499, that seems to be a client issue, and that client mostly seems to be beehaw, who are stuck on an old Lemmy version and being increasingly wonky (in the other direction, they often reply in HTML rather than JSON and randomly decide that their communities’ inboxes don’t exist, so I wouldn’t worry about stuff from them either)
