You are not the first one to ask this. We dont know, my guess would be, because Selfhost is so popular it federated almost everywhere, and spammers probably saw that and attacked through that.

Yup, report, block. Contact admins if possible ( or warn others in the Defense HQ Matrix channel )

I installed it now, it is working fine with my pihole. It wasnt that much of a hussle but a bit of googling.

I would recommend only opening with regsitration application only. And only federate with instances you trust and want to get federated and have some contact with the admins that you federate with. ( On matrix or anywhere else ) We have a common, matrix channel where many admins are active ( https://matrix.to/#/#defense:lemmy.world ) there you get early warnings about bad stuff that could be federated to you.

Does it really do that? I thought if pi-hole blocks it, it just says nothing here, normally a pc then looks up your secondary dns and then ads are back at it.

This was my experience when i did that.

That i dont understand? How can it be a result that i need to handle? If its not correct than java will throw an error. ( As expected, shit in shit out )

Yeah same ;D But at least its not like in smaller or medium sized python projects where even if its just 2 files its unbearable unpredictable.

Ahh you mean the implementation of var in other langauges than python, i missunderstood you there! Yeah var is a bit risky to use in that case, same i like c# too! Its pretty reliable and stable.

Isnt that already default on all variables? Its like a var(in js)?

Correct! As i already contributing to a big ass python project at work. We will rewrite a Big Project from python to c# in under 1 month.

But you really dont see what the function wants or requires or returns ( except with typehints, but they dont work most of the time and then its not enforced in any way )

If you say the function should only recieve one argument and returns always boolean. It is predictable to only allow the wanted args and forces you to return a boolean.

For example in a less predictable programming language e.g. Python: I can do all above but python does not stop anyone to put more or less arguments to a function, or a developer not adding typehints or not complying to them and return a string instead of a boolean.

But i had it wrong rust is similar to java on that part.

But still it is a lot more popular and easier to start with. So there will be a lot more contributor to sublinks than lemmy ever had.

Probably because everyone knows it and its more predictable

Its still better than any python project lol

No, i meant it as that. Because of downsides of karma on reddit ( with restricting things to only over x ammount of karma ) many swapped from reddit. Because lemmy doesnt have it ( or rather shouldnt have it as pre 0.19 it was just an oversight ) i said “back” because i was referencing it to lemmy. I am not a native english speaker.

Oh sorry if i am offensive with it. It was just my opinion. Everyone should of course do what they want on lemmy. And if anyone wants to add Karma back, they should. But what they should keep on reddit, is the attitude oh you have low karma = you bad or you are just not worth my time.

Its not that i disagree but i see the risk that the karma will come back as hey you have low karma, you cant do sh*t. Or the whole thing with “Karma farming”. People posting more what everyone wants to hear and not whats right or interesting for some.

So to bring the sole reason, that users swapped from reddit to lemmy, back?

What a genious.

Yeah you are correct, and you dont even have to lift a finger in the next release 1 click and you block the whole “threads.net” instance.

Nice ;)
