I have no insight into why it’s being done in this instance, but object storage is typically used when you want to move away from storing things on your web server with “fixed” storage, and instead store it in an “infinitely” expandable storage system. It is also much easier to manage when you have multiple servers as it’s separate and shared.

Here is a post by the creator of Bruno explaining the differences: https://dev.to/helloanoop/launching-bruno-local-first-opensource-api-client-2ipc

One of the main issues with OSX is that docker sucks, it’s so slow even using the new fixes virtfs etc.

It may be better than a 6, but it’s terrible compared to a 5.

Best bet is to check out the GitHub repo

That’s exactly what is happening now. Lemmy is a very young codebase and up until very recently only had a tiny user base, so optimisation wasn’t that important.

Over the last few months the Devs have been working hard to improve things, but there is a lot of ground to cover

Possibly not ideal for you as a data engineer, but you could try skimming down the GitHub database issues?

Sadly not, it’s mostly focused on comment ordering.

All the tracking code is in the ads library which isn’t loaded after paying to remove ads.

This caused major issues with Google before, so I don’t think so.

It took him a month because he adapted a code base he had been working on for a decade.

It’s not greediness to want to be able to pay your bills. This is his job. Also a single payment option has already been developed it’s just not made in live yet.

Lemmy is funded by Patreon/Liberapay… Which are essentially subscriptions

No idea what your situation is, but mine takes 30 seconds to charge and has enough range to cover my daily commute for a week.

That’s annoying, I assumed this was a bug. I spent 5 minutes trying to find a way to hide this.

Why would I need zoom icons on a touch screen with pinch zoom?

Just to add to this.

This is because the authentication tokens that your browser uses are stored in cookies, these match up with entries in the database.

As a way to mitigate the hack, admins deleted the entries in the database rendering the tokens in cookies useless.

This means that any tokens the hacker got access to are also useless.

Haptics are possible if you aren’t using iOS. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Navigator/vibrate
