While the user bases of Piefed and Mbin are smaller, they should be included as they federate with Lemmy and interact with our communities.

The same is true of Mastodon but that’s a lot harder to count since most Mastodon users are not interacting with Lemmy (since it’s a different style of platform - microblog vs link sharing).

That’s a good reason. I guess when I’m directly writing SQL the queries are point in time and not part of some enduring codebase.

They plan to move to sublinks, but it’s still in development. So they said they will update to the latest version and also planning to update to 1.0 when released (planned for later this year) because their members are having trouble with apps etc after breaking changes.

There’s an update post here: https://beehaw.org/post/18771220

More specifically I meant when I am writing in the language.

I don’t write “SELECT * FROM users;”, I write “select * from users;”

Not sure if joking but I meant the language not the acronym.

A person is unlikely to read it specifically but they will be looking for trends. I hope you used lots of good keywords.

Do people actually write SQL in all caps? Ever since I was a boy I’ve always written SQL (and HTML) in lower case.

People who did upgrade would have found regressions in several of those versions.

We’re on 0.19.8 so just one version behind that I need to get around to updating, but before that there were a string of versions with known issues.

Lemmy is not even version 1 yet, it’s risky to update to a new version straight away.

A lot fewer possibilities than that! No special characters, all lower case, it was a word in the dictionary.

Those were different times.

I still sometimes think about my first email address, and how it had a four letter password. Just signed up at Yahoo, it wasn’t anything special.

How hard is it to be specific? People are concerned about this, can they not tell us the exact data they share and with whom, or is doing so going to make people more concerned so they are avoiding telling us?
