I think this is related to the recent security vulnerability that affected, notably, lemmy.world. Even unaffected instances mostly decided to invalidate existing user sessions just to be sure and this required resetting Jerboa and some other apps that presumably hold onto a cached version of your auth token even if you remove the account and re-add it or something. So it was necessary to clear the app cache and storage to reset it and add accounts again.

there’s also https://lemmyverse.net/communities

Does your lemmy instance have a character limit?

Any specific infringement material (by which I mean media) would only be on the user’s home server. Links to content aren’t what is actionable for a DMCA notice as far as I’m aware. And the DMCA does not require platforms to actively monitor or remove potentially infringing content, only to follow the takedown procedure when sent an appropriate notification. If they follow that then they are protected from liability. That’s US law but IIRC the implementations in most of the rest of the world are similar if not the same. And here’s the rub: even without those communities, LW will still need to have a DMCA agent and take action against content when notified because people can and will upload infringing media here on other communities.

They’re not exposing themselves to additional risk by having the piracy communities unblocked. People can and will discuss piracy, in abstract terms at the very least, all over the place. And discussion of copyright infringement is not copyright infringement anyway. Any liability and risk they do hold they will still have to worry about now regardless.

Generally yes, for keyboards without a number row we will tend to use some combination of those kinds of tricks. In the past I’ve had numbers on the homerow under an fn key (note that said fn key is on a thumb key so easier to press than the standard location for fn keys on regular keyboards). Currently I have a number row as vertical combos on my Sweep (34 key low profile split). So q+a = 1, w+s = 2, and so on. As well as a numpad on one half under a fn key (we call these layers). So for long strings of numbers I use the numpad layer, for short ones I use my “virtual number row”.

However, I got here gradually, my first split was a keebio Iris (which has a number row) and have gone progressively in the direction of smaller ones. There are a good number of numrow inclusive splits out there. Some examples:

• ergodox
• moonlander
• dygma raise
• Lily58
• Sofle
• Iris

Splitkb.com is due to release the Elora (Kyria, but with a number row) Any Day Now™️

On foot pedals, I have a stack of them but haven’t got around to making use of them in any projects yet. Others have

Ricardo was testing in production

There is a more performant C++ implementation but it’s been a long while since I’ve used either it or the java implementation. Worth checking out.

I know this doesn’t answer the question but I want to offer some advice instead.

In my opinion just don’t. If the company want you to have access to emails on the go then they should give you a company phone. If they don’t, why are you trying to? Don’t put work things on your personal phone.

It’s a nonsensical statement to us programmers too.

Even with AI models that can identify that there are birds in the picture. Having it decide with accuracy that the picture is of a bird is still a hard problem.
