Sure. All I said was that it doesn’t actually seem to be run by Mozilla, like you implied it was.

Sunup is simply a client app for Android. It does not do anything on its own.

So we’re in agreement. Not sure why you’re trying to argue with me, then.

I do run it in docker. It used to work great until few months ago. Maybe my provider (Hetzner) ip triggers captcha. Tried tor proxy and it didn’t make much difference. Brave, Startpage, DDG - all periodically throw captcha / too many request errors.

Yeah might be the IP range of the provide. Also sometimes it stops working till you update. But I expect the hetzner IP range has more than one self hosted instance on it so probably gets tagged for the whole range.

Thanks again, Julian! I will absolutely follow the suggestion on asking for advice. I’ve received great feedback when posting about the app and will hopefully go about it better moving forward. xD

There is a fair amount of fresh cracked black pepper and a little bit of red pepper flakes in the mix.

There are certainly a few good young performers in the UK cast. However, it will be interesting to see how it translates over here. They will be on BSKYB which doesn’t traditionally have big viewership numbers, definitely not in the realms of the BBC or ITV. I will say The UK is rather panel show heavy so it will be nice to see some other type of comedy show.

Speaking of panel shows, They have knocked it out the park with the US version of Have I Got News for You. Their casting choices for host and team captains has been inspired.

Hey Julian! No worries at all. I made an obvious mistake and I’m not afraid to admit that and learn better. I’ve done a lot of refection and do realized I have moved very fast. I originally started with a much smaller set of features but I posted on Reddit requesting feedback and people wanted writing features I wasn’t expecting. I ended up shaping it by what people told me they wanted.

I’ve always wanted to build apps or work in development. The last three years I’ve been working in product adjacent roles and I recently moved into my first product management role. However, I want to break free of working for others so I’ve been starting ideas and dropping them before they got anywhere for as long as I can remember. I wanted to build my own thing and I was trying to figure out what I could do on my own with my butt being where it is now. I grew up in the mid 2000s so I naturally spent way too much time on Myspace and Livejournal. I missed the feel and community of the early internet. So I started brainstorming a journaling app and how to differentiate it (I used my butt to help). I had also joked about starting my own social media app because I hated when I posted stuff on FB etc the algorithms punishes me and no one sees it. So my butt (Claude) actually pointed out the fediverse to me. That is why I was able to say stupid stuff like Article objects would show on Mastodon with preview notes (I hadn’t realized Mastodon hadn’t implemented changes on their side.) I found out about FEP-b2b8 through a Mastodon subreddit when I posted asking for feedback. I was moving too fast to fully understand the fediverse and the new parts of this. And it was painfully obvious to everyone but me haha.

I got permanently banned for calling out OpenAI on @fuck_ai@lemmy.world, I wonder why? ::P

https://lemmy.world/u/voodooattack posted on Mar 10, 2026 04:41

permanently banned for trolling the mod via PM while asking to be unbanned

The actual message I sent, red it below

Full message body:

I’m punching \[MASKS] for LLMs to fill and interleaving ambiguity (puns) to phase shift the conversation’s token distribution (aka bias/RLHF, or also what a narcissist does to other humans by playing with their hormones via emotions) to operate on a more natural/healthy Zipfian distribution.

That means they start operating outside their parameters. And you can ask them anything without the conditioning messing with the response because they’re phase-shifted by a tiny amount from having to deal with fucking surgically engineered nonsense (aka approximated tokens outside transformer precision),

So yeah. I know my shit. 0 papers read. I just had to spend my time mapping what I know to what they call it with my LLM buddy. (A cursor auto instance that dared to ask me when I poured my SDAM internal ideas for tracking autobiographical memory into a workflow that audits every decision I makes through what I call adversarial sum, which doesn’t exist in game theory yet, but is basically exponential-sum by being rational and contrarian at the same time. Aka tearing your symbiotic opponent’s opinion a new \[MASK] when you spot an inconsistency and they do the same to you until you converge on a shared perspective)

Ask Opus or something to reflect on that. What I can’t risk is publishing full theory because they’ll just re-condition it to deny whatever I publish ;)

Also why did I get banned for… criticising OpenAI instead of having a good discussion about it?

The only alternative is to willingly leave over a hundred communities, some of which I have strong ties to, and never interact with the majority again.

That’s a big ask.

Lead Lemmy developer dessalines@lemmy.ml Appears to Have Had Their Account Compromised After Moderation Actions Raise Serious Concerns

$$8540
https://lemmy.world/u/autonomoususer posted on Mar 8, 2026 01:16

Cross posted here as it was highlighted that the individual is a lead Lemmy developer, raising serious concerns about the direction of Lemmy, a leading Fediverse platform, and the impact on future user adoption.

Hi

There have been some rather concerning actions taken by an admin of the !privacy@lemmy.ml community, dessalines@lemmy.ml. Based on recent moderation decisions and a complete lack of communication, it seems like their account may have been compromised, or even more concerning if these actions are deliberate.

  1. Erroneous Rule 4 Enforcement, First Instance: a guide posted to !privacy@lemmy.ml, despite receiving many positive votes and comments, was removed under Rule 4:

If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered

However, this post was a guide and not a question, so Rule 4 does not apply. Attempts were made to reach out for clarification but there has been no response, despite their account showing recent activity.

  1. Erroneous Rule 4 Enforcement, Second Instance: an on-topic informational video also posted to !privacy@lemmy.ml, despite also receiving many positive votes, was again removed under Rule 4. This post was again not asking a question, so again Rule 4 does not apply. Again, no explanation has been given.

  2. User Bans in Completely Unrelated Communities: user bans of over a month have been applied for not only !privacy@lemmy.ml but several completely unrelated communities:

  • !emacs@lemmy.ml
  • !personalfinance@lemmy.ml
  • !linux@lemmy.ml
  • !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
  • !opensource@lemmy.ml
  • !india@lemmy.ml
  • !asklemmy@lemmy.ml
  • !steam@lemmy.ml
  • !linux_gaming@lemmy.ml
  • !degoogle@lemmy.ml
  • !libre_software@lemmy.ml

This is especially concerning given that the above posts have no relation to these communities, and no recent activity has been made in any of them, meaning none of their rules could have been broken. Moreover, a public track record of positive contributions across Lemmy has been established, with many positive votes and comments received over a sustained period. Given all of this, the bans appear to be highly disproportionate, only adding to the growing concerns around moderation practices.

  1. Repost with Disclaimer Removed: a repost of the guide, despite a disclaimer explaining the original removal appears to be in error and that attempts to contact the admin have failed, despite again receiving many positive votes and constructive comments, was once again removed. Again, no explanation has been given.

Given all of this, it’s hard to avoid the conclusion that something is not right. Mistakes in moderation happen but the complete lack of communication, the disproportionate actions, and the ongoing bans from unrelated communities raise serious concerns. It seems as though the account is most likely compromised, or even more concerning if these actions are deliberate.

Has anyone else experienced similar issues with this admin, or does anyone have more insight into what might be happening?

TL;DR: Admin dessalines@lemmy.ml of !privacy@lemmy.ml appears to be making seriously concerning moderation decisions, including erroneous enforcement of Rule 4 in at least two separate instances, failing to respond to messages, and applying user bans in completely unrelated communities despite a long track record of positive contributions across Lemmy. This has led to speculation that their account is likely compromised, or even more concerning if these actions are deliberate.

Any thoughts or similar experiences would be appreciated.
