Lol that’s a wild one. Compared to Reddit Lemmy has a completely negligible userbase and is (at this point) no competition at all. Why would Reddit waste any resources on this?

Ooof, watched that yeeeeaaaaars ago. I remember it being pretty psycho and disturbing. Not sure if this still holds up today but it’s definitely not everyones cup of tea.
But isn’t this kinda like the one click hosters like Rapidshare or Megaupload? Those services (at least the big ones I think) have been taken down for copyright infringement although they had the benefit of the doubt because data was stored fragmented and encrypted. Or am I not seeing something important?
… but the scenario you describe is not related to pasting passwords, it is more related to staying logged in, isn’t it?
Great idea, would you please file an issue on github?
Oh yes I got my definition of correlation slightly wrong. Correlation doesn’t necessarily mean that two things have the same cause but they do relate in some way either by having a common cause or by occuring in the same system. They definitely have more in common than happening just at the same time or right after each other like a coincidence.
I didn’t claim that correlation equals causation and I hope you didn’t get the impression because this would be oviously wrong.
Edit: I stand corrected and today I learned that “correlation” means that two things have a statistical relation without any causal relation implied. There can be a causal relation but it’s not necessary. The key takeaway for me is that correlation describes a statistical relationship.
That’s exactly the problem with many open source projects.
I recently experienced this first hand when submitting some pull requests to Jerboa and following the devs: As long as there is no money funding the project the devs are trying to support the project in their free time which means little to no time for quality control. Mistakes happen… most of them are uncritical but as long as there’s little to no time and expertise to audit code meaningfully and systematically, there will be bugs and these bugs may be critical and security relevant.
Do you have an example? I’m pretty sure correlation cannot be caused by coincidence.
Coincidence is describing two things happening at the same time but with separate causes. Correlation is describing two things having a common cause.
Not exactly. What you’re looking for is coincidence.
Beehaw.org chose to defederate some big instances like lemmy.world because the beehaw admins feel like they can’t moderate the inappropriate content entering their instance from big instances without proper mod tools.
They made a long post sharing their reasons but I can’t find it at the moment.
This has been addressed but there is no solution yet:

I was more curious why ver .33 is no longer working
0.0.33 isn’t working anymore because Jerboa’s default instance (Lemmy.ml) has already been updated to 0.18 for testing purposes and trying to connect to a 0.18 instance causes Jerboa 0.0.34 and older to crash.
We are in a rather silly state where we can’t use Jerboa 0.0.35 to log in to instances other than Lemmy.ml and can’t use Jerboa 0.0.34 when we haven’t been logged in before updating. 😬
Some governments are just pathetic and sad… I don’t even… Ughh
