I replied to Blaze in another thread, essentially saying that !trendingcommunities@endlesstalk.org is currently a backup / potential replacement for this community (depending how things go with feddit.nl)

(Commenting on an old post to see if it’ll bring it - and hopefully everything after it - through to a new instance)

Confirmed: they’re all just saying ‘Good Night’ to each other like the end of a “The Waltons” episode. It’s very wholesome.

Minor edit to move ‘Sex Meme Pit’ up a few places - it’s swapped back again from a NSFW to SFW community, and the list was only showing its growth as a SFW one. I’m guessing that the Mod is going for ‘SFW community with the more egregious posts NSFW’d out’ approach.

No post yesterday, and some communities are possibly missing from today. Lemmyverse.net wasn’t able to update - the dev has said it was due to issues with lemmy.world’s API responses.

“Grenoble” is mostly in French, btw. So if you click, you’ll probably only see the 2 or 3 posts that aren’t tagged ‘François’ (depending on how you’ve set your profile up). This is how things should be, I guess.

Data is over for 18 hours (rather than 24) because LemmyVerse hasn’t updated in 17 hours (it normally updates every 6-12 hours), and the day (for me) will be over in a bit.

nosleep at lemmyworld? That’s only got 5 posts from a month ago, so someone will have to get their finger out.

I wrote a function that sent a post to the top community in New Entries, but then changed my mind about using it. That was for everyday though, so I thought it might get intrusive. I’ll re-think it when a month comes up - it’s difficult to know how users feel about bots.

Does the community need to be older than 7 days?

It does, yes.

I discovered eXoLite from your Community, btw. It’s amazing, so thank you.

It’s up now. It was feddit.nl’s turn to fall over today. Sorry if you asked me this ages ago (I’m only just seeing it for the same reason)

Cassian Andor’s on here!

Okay bot, you can put me down now

I spent some time being “funny” at shittymoviedetails yesterday, which illustrated 2 things to me today:

1. Creating Content is a good trick for driving up subscribers (18% in one day, so the 4.22% average demonstrates how in the doldrums it was)

2. Visiting it from a instance from which nobody had subscribed showed me all the posts, but not of the lovely upvotes and comments. So things may appear deader-than-are if you’re the first person from your instance clicking on one of these links.

I bought a cheap ‘mp3 player’ from eBay when I was trying to use my phone less, but it was rubbish: no library function (just the files, listed in the order they were copied), m4a support was limited to low-complexity), Bluetooth dropped if I moved my head.

I was surprised, because there’s definitely system-on-a-chip + open-source software combinations that would make a good, cheap player. The kind of places that make them though, will always prefer to use even-cheaper components than what the final retail price would suggest.

So, because everyone uses their phone for music listening now, it’s hard to get a dumb player. They’re either rubbish, like I bought, or they’re completely at the other end of the scale (as in more expensive than a phone)

Oh cool. Never had a doubt of course. Off to Narnia next apparently (which means I’ll have to wait even longer for my imagined Gerwig Star Wars, unfortunately).

I like the idea that these reviewers all had the concept for a perfect Barbie movie, and are then criticising this one for not living up to it.

I think that - like most people - when I heard that Gerwig was making a movie out of Barbie, I thought: how the hell is she going to do that?

I’ve been thinking along the same lines. The bot will catch up on its own missing data in a couple of days - so it’s won’t need to do the “over 7 days / over 6 days” biz. When everything is for over 7 days, I’ll start putting new entries at the top (with maybe just a single line, for previously mentioned stuff)

I think this is the issue - if the community itself isn’t tagged, blocking NSFW on your account doesn’t filter the posts (although they should be blurry if the posts themselves are tagged).

Fortunately, most of the untagged communities (inc. celebs) are modded by a user called Madness, so blocking him cleared up my feed.

Thanks for the suggestion - I’ll give it a try. There’s so many Communities (about 20k) and they don’t change that often, so it’s difficult to know what the best metrics are. Only really to try something new and see whether it produces something interesting. So I’ll continue experimenting.

This is the response for a community:

To give you an idea of which information is / isn’t available (I don’t know why I thought the description wasn’t in there)

The other “trending” lists work off “users_active_week” I think, but - for me - seem as likely to link me to something inactive/empty. Post today vs. posts yesterday would be doable (but I’d probably rather read one interesting post in ‘hobbydrama’ over then posts from ‘risa’)
