Yes but this thread is about something happening in France, so I wasn’t talking about US laws…

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
If you get arrested during a protest, they can force you to unlock the phone (it can be a felony to refuse) , so better not to bring it at all.
Not fake. Just not really talked about in English, but it was mentioned in most French newspapers.
3·1 year agoIt was changed recently, now upvote works similar to lemmy/reddit (but also adds things to your favourites)
Boost is more for the microblogging side of kbin, it’s like a retweet. (also adds more reputation points but that’s not really useful for anything right now)
Firefox doesn’t have this problem,only chromium browsers.
Nice!
The PWA rotation issue is really annoying, happy to see this will be fixed. :)
For now I use it to save things, since there is no save function.
So it could probably be replaced by that.
But I think it’s also here for compatibility with Mastodon…
Clicking on “boost” again should remove the boost. At least that works for me.
Currently :
-
“Boost” adds reputation. It’s a kind of retweet.
-
“Downvote” removes reputation
-
“Upvote” does nothing. (edit : for reputation)
This is because previously the upvote was boost, they were switched around to be similar to other fediverse systems.
Dev mentioned in another thread that the reputation system should be changed to have up/down count instead of boost/down. But they have a lot to do right now so it might not be the most pressing issue…

Same, it looks like it was just fixed.

1·1 year agoChip shortage really hit them hard… At some point I even had a Firefox extension that would send me a notification when they were available somewhere.
It’s supposed to get better by the end of the year though.
Like a lot of things, it was good at first. Then they made it shitty.
I had small ads that I barely noticed, no need for any crypto account, and it gave me 5~10€/month to automatically send to Wikipedia (or any website I felt like paying).
Now that crypto account is mandatory it’s just useless…
I still use it on a few devices but mainly because I’m too lazy to replace it by something else.
