The “I’d buy that for a dollar!” guy from Robocop.
Hey! This guy doesn’t know about the three seashells!
I think it’s just a desire to indicate some uncertainty about something (like - I’m not an expert, my opinion on whatever could change with time or new information). A full stop seems arrogant somehow.
I realise it’s not a good impulse and mostly resist. Mostly …
(that last one’s nothing to do with the above reasoning, it’s just a line from Aliens that’s stuck in my head).
Very late reply - the ‘app’ at the moment is just a PWA, so it requires a manual check
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
Wanting to end all text communications with ellipses …
I don’t know if there’s any tools that’ll do that - I imagine it’d be an animation that you’d need to tediously build frame by frame. Gif is especially inefficient to simulate slowness because you need a new frame even when it’s the same as the previous one, so the file would be massive. So you’d want to convert it to MP4 (which anything hosting it would probably do automatically) or use webp - this doesn’t have particularly widespread support but it lets you create animations with a ‘delay’ element so you can hold certain frames. An example of that is here: https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/218d951c-67b3-4589-ac94-8f661b32a8fc.webp (wait for it …)
All the other comments except from that one are from alien.top (Reddit users turned into bots), which your instance is defederated from.
I listened to the track at https://lemm.ee/post/41528735 (listentothis community) the other day, then had to listen again today 'cos it was stuck in head.
You’re not kidding. Arriving from the UK into Sydney airport - the heat was unbelievable, but when I was in Melbourne, there was a question of ‘wait? is this weather … shit?’
Ranked by complexity:
Think we should maybe walk before we run here.
Yeah - if you don’t like a post you ‘reduce’ it, and if you do then you ‘thicken’ it.
Only kidding: they use ‘favourites’
They call them ‘reduces’
I’m guessing it’s an artifact of them supporting both platforms like Lemmy (who’s users make Threads and Comments in Magazines) and platforms like Mastodon (who’s users make Posts and Replies in Microblogs).
If you don’t like that, you’re really not going to like what they call downvotes …
What Peertube needs is for other Fediverse platforms to build in a filter so only posts which contain video are displayed.
Latest PeerTube vids available on PieFed - should be quite handy hopefully, because - as you say - they normally get buried by any sort method that isn’t ‘New’
For the full Low Quality Facts Mastodon experience, please have every 3rd post be a nag about subscribing to your Patreon. Thanks!
a.gup.pe tells us - they Announce the post the same way that !fediverse@lemmy.world Announced this post. I’m subscribed to both !photography@a.gup.pe and !fedivere@lemmy.world, so get content from both in the same way.
Yeah - those individual Mastodon posts were tagged with @photography@a.gup.pe
by their authors, and a.gup.pe picked up in the tag and made it part of the Group so PieFed could display it in a community.
For example: an original post was https://mastodon.social/@zhhz/113068522102706157 and how it appears on PieFed is https://piefed.social/post/225229
a.gup.pe is a 3rd-party effort to wrangle individual Mastodon posts into Groups, so that Group-based fediverse platforms can follow them (a more familiar term for Group is ‘community’).

We may need to ask world to upgrade their storage capacity so we can fit all this man’s egregious deception on.
