Well that didn’t take long.

Yeah, but talking about GDPR is burying the lede.

Just another guy who thinks he’s Gods gift to open source because he found a bug, and thinks the volunteer developers fail to show proper gratitude by not dropping everything to work on your pet bug.

Inflicting lawyers on an open source project is a great way to drive off the developers.

If I hear Lemmy has a GDPR problem I assume it’s lawyer BS only European instance admins have to worry about.

If I hear Lemmy has bugs in basic CRUD functionality, that’s a real issue.

Bit of a red herring to put GDPR in the title when the article is about Lemmy missing key admin functions, and only tangentially how this runs afoul of GDPR.

TL;DR Lemmy hasn’t implemented image deletion for users or admins, so don’t upload your government ID.

A bot which goes around putting the #foo tag on every post in !foo@lemmy.world seems like it causes more spam than discovery.

There might be value in bot-assisted tagging, but tagging its own community isn’t it.

We sure get a lot of “both sides bad” around here.

Hard not to be suspicious of their motives.

It’s basically a RAID + File shares like SMB.

Loads of DIY options, but I use a Synology so I don’t need to mess with anything.

I think you just described using a NAS as primary storage.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 2 points 9 months ago (8 children)

that doesn't require I keep a full local copy of all the data

So you want a local self hosted backup, but also not a full copy? So like backup only recently changed files?

Are we talking personal offsite backup, or a commercial cloud service?

For cloud backups I like BackBlaze but I’ve never tried to use it as a general cloud storage drive.

Never heard of that extension. Neat idea, but seems open to abuse by bad actors on both sides.

Wish they said more about vetting reports.
