Direct message

There is an enormous support network in this subreddit for those who need it

It’s literally a meme sub where people laugh at tabloid articles and britishisms.

Yes, but WordPress !== PHP. It’s one of the worst examples of what PHP can look like and they resolutely refuse to adopt modern standards or improve in any way. They still use SVN too. Bunch of backwards troglodytes.

It’s still limited by the rules of federation. Kbin.social needs to be aware of your post somehow. Easiest way to to that is to have your KBin account follow your Mastodon one.

Yeah. I’ve come to read that as “mods gotta mod”

Large parts of my particular departments .gov.uk stack are PHP. All modern (8.1+) using established frameworks and to be honest, it’s a joy. It’s quick to write, easy to understand and very easy to test. The write, run, debug cycle is also essentially instant; although I really enjoy using Go (another bit of the stack) being able to quickly iterate changes is something I absolutely miss when I’m using it.

Laravel + Livewire is some sort of dark voodoo magic. I can write only PHP and have a functioning SPA with push updates and all sorts.

Not to mention that the defacto package manager (composer) blows NPM out of the water in basically all metrics. From what I understand most languages package managers now look up to or even model themselves on it.

Wing Commander 2. My Dad sourced it and the manual was a B&W photocopy. It took ages to get onto it sometimes as the photocopy was so bad I’d be unable to decipher what letter 6 on line 8 of page 10 was.

As the “owner” of a community an instance is responsible for distributing posts made to it to other servers. Beehaw have said they’re not listening to lemmy.world and so don’t distribute posts made by lemmy.world users.
