MacOS would probably iSwoop, no?
Not these days. Apple hasn’t launched a new product with the ‘i’ prefix since Steve Jobs was around.

That’s how you know it’s a KDE app.
G for old gtk app would be funnier.
bro are you just mass-crossposting things from reddit or what? Those camel case titles aren’t really common here, you know.
If they are, that’s good for Lemmy.
Helps with the network effect.
Nope. Network effect happens if there’s a network. For that you need an adequate amount of eyes per post so that people can start commenting and discussing stuff with one another.
Dump in hundreds of copy-posted memes without enlarging the user base and it does exactly the opposite of the network effect: With much more posts per viewer, the viewers are spread thin over the posts which means there are never enough people on one post to actually start a meaningful discussion in the comments.
are you saying that we’re not all here commenting, regardless? 😥🥹
“Network effect.”
It’s spam.
But it’s not. U see any ads ? do you want to continue enjoying quality memes once a month instead?
Yeah I’m testing new reposting tool. Why
When posting in communities in the instance please follow the automation guidelines (Section 2 and 3 match the most) https://legal.programming.dev/docs/automation-guidelines/
Notably the section that says 75% of recent content should be human created not automatic and accounts with automation should be marked as such
It tends to make each individual post do worse as well when theyre spammed like this at once
Hey. My bad I was testing something. This was not automatic though. There is approval moderation queue and posts are all human reviewed
that still automatically pulls the content even if its manually reviewed which makes it go out much faster than any people manually making memes would be able to post at
just space things out so youre not doing more than a couple a day here and dont just copy titles and stuff 1 for 1
deleted by creator
Just a measure to make sure this stays a human zone and not bots spamming everyones post feeds for all the different communities without any sort of curation
Yeah, I don’t mind the bots pulling stuff over in an effort to generate a bit of a network effect, but I deleted my comment after I realized my entire home screen is filled with this guy‘s posts.
I spoke prematurely and for that apologies. Some moderation discussion def needed and it seems they understand.
Carry on. Ignore my old man grumpy sass.
The problem is that Reddit is many orders of magnitude larger than Lemmy. r/comics has 1.5 mio weekly visitors. All of Lemmy combined has just ~50k monthly visitors.
One repost bot alone can swamp all of Lemmy, totally drowning out everything else. The biggest issue there is that it’s dead content. The thing that makes something like Reddit or Lemmy better than just a random webcomics feed is the comments. So if a ton of non-organic content gets reposted, that dilutes the comments too much meaning that people don’t actually see eachother’s comments any more and thus no discussions happen.
This is all human reviewed posts. Not automatic. Just trying to find a way and bump lemmy userbase count after pigboi messed with reddit mobile browser experience. I don’t want to use reddit anymore. I just want to bring reddit with me
It’s a slow process. Can’t be forced. Have watched many things come and go over my life.
What you’re doing helps, just needs fine tuned. You know that it seems. I appreciate you.
Add a source link toward old.reddit. Even if reddit is terrible, we shouldn’t stoop as low as not giving proper attribution.
Also send git :3
I’ll add it. I’m just testing now.
Even better, use a Redlib instance instead of old.reddit
Git? Like Microsoft GitHub? Why give Microsoft traffic?
Git is a tool originally developed by Linus Torvalds himself. Github is one platform of many that uses Git. Similar to Gitlab, Bitbucket, Codeberg or Gitea. You can also directly use git without a platform around that.
As a developer you really should know that. That’s basics.
There’s other guy forges than GitHub. Like gitlab, codeberg, etc…
He means to ask if you tool is open sourced. If so, he wanted to look at the code
There are less than 8k MAUs in this community, it doesn’t need a firehose of memes from elsewhere.
Ok. Duly noted. Again I was just testing something.
You think 8k MAU is a chicken and an egg problem though? It seems like like there is no content so there are no users - I’m just trying to fix that is that ok if we bump lemmy userbase?At least space the posts out. No more than 1 per hour. And even then that gets annoying when one community is dominated by one poster.
Even that may be too much. If my limited feed is full of memes, I’ll unsubscribe.
I think that was content from last 2 days on reddit - is that too much? Also yes there is a cap automated postings in there.
because when I wrote the above comment, around 80% or 90% of my lemmy homepage was just your posts, which felt kinda spammy
So thats about to change. There will be a lot more content On lemmy
I like it if it’s curated (manualy selected to be the best of). I remember mass posting things from Digg to Reddit 17 years ago.
It is curated. I can either manually review and approve or auto post. In his case all was manually curated, human reviewed and approved
