Hi, I just found the pict-rs option to have proxied images deleted after some days. What happens once they get deleted? Will the people using my instance still be able to see them?

Yo, I was trying to change my account name on Lemmy but I couldn't find the option in the account settings, is this feature available on lemmy?

I have an account on lemmy.ml and two days ago it started logging me out of the website whenever I close the browser tab or browser. This behaviour does not occur on other websites where I choose to stay logged in. So my browser functionality is working as intended.

Has anything changed on Lemmy, cause it used to work for years? Anything I can do?

New Lemmy admin here. I found the Theming Guide in the Lemmy docs, but it jumps directly to the 'After a theme is added' section without explaining how to add or create themes. I've searched for examples but couldn't find any configuration that includes these details.

I found hanubeki-lemmy-themes, which actually contains some good themes. However, when I copied the 5 folder to my extra_theme folder, nothing happened. Can someone guide me on how to add these themes to my instance?

Update: You should put all your css file in the extra_themes folder, each .css is a theme. For hanubeki-lemmy-themes I put all the dist and src files in extra_themes and it works. I already done this before, but my browser was [caching lemmy-ui static files for 24 hours], so when I delete the cache it just works.

Thank you Sami, it was a cash problem, I updated the post with more details

Sorry for the vague question but I'm hoping there's a lot I"m missing. I know I can edit the side bar, icon, and banner. Make the community public or private and there's a "mod posting only" option. But is that it?

Some things I'm wondering about,

• can I turn downvotes off or is that an instance only thing? (fan community, off topic would just be removed)
• Is there any other way to manipulate the community page like backgrounds etc?
• Flair's or post tags? Any community settings I looked over?
• Allowing or disallowing bots (again is this an instance thing?)

I'm fine with what it is, just wanted to make sure there wasn't more I was missing with my options in the community.

Bonus question, besides crossposting and the "new communities" community sections, is there anything else I should do with a fresh community?

Hi Lemmy friends,

Is there any way to have Lemmy's community RSS feeds provide more than 20 <item> tags at a time? Can I add a querystring variable to get the next page or two of data?

Background on what I'm trying to do: I run the Movie, TV and Game trailers community. I'd like to create a simple website / landing page that displays an ongoing roll of the latest/top/hot trailers posted to the community.

I can use the community's RSS feed for this, but the feed only includes a maximum of 20 entries (for an average end-to-end runtime of about one hour). I'd really like to get the next few pages of entries as well.

Thanks!

I can't even put up a pfp

If someone's post is deleted, and the modlogs don't specify who performed the action (instead it is a generic name like "admin"), how can the user discuss that deletion if they have a rationale for why it should not have been deleted?

I love Lemmy and I try to spread the info about it but almost always I face one issue - people being confused. For me (and probably you) it's hard to understand what's confusing about the way Lemmy works, I mean email works on the same principle and everyone's ok with it. It basically boils down to like 3 questions:

• Why do I need to choose a server?
• What is the server / instance? / Is server a subreddit?
• Is Lemmy the same thing like Reddit?

So my idea: Could we put it as a FAQ on the join-lemmy.org? Feel free to submit best answers to these questions (I try to submit mine later when I have some time). Or come up with other frequent questions you heard
