Yup… IIRC they basically started a company with a similar name when they didn’t really have any association with the project then slowly consumed it.
Although it’s now a larger organization, Redis was started and maintained by some guy that just wanted to make his website faster. It’s very widely deployed.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Downsides of Signal alternatives compared to Signal?English
532·2 years agoThe difficulty of any non-mainstream chat app is getting other people to use it. On that list, Signal is the most probable to be recognized by people who don’t have a particular interest in privacy, so it’s more likely to get more people to use it.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Developers on Lemmy, where can I get spicy projects?English
5·2 years agoMy go-to recommendation for a project is always a BigInt library. Helps you learn a lot about a language from project structure to syntax and operator overloading.
It’s also a lot of fun!
It’s mostly a result of him believing he’s self-made and therefore must have some sort of superior knowledge to the rest of the world. Classic case of being born on third base and thinking you hit a home run.
Start by finding some hashtags you like and following those. It’s a good way to fill your feed and find interesting people to follow.
Obviously I won’t trash the room, but if I’m paying a cleaning fee, I will not be cleaning…

47·2 years agotl;dr: The owner is alt-right and drove away pretty much everyone from the site, which is now a ghost town.
It gained about 30k users relatively quickly. The owner then went full alt-right and declared it a “free speech platform” which caused it to lose about 99% of its users (most of which moved to Discuit). After that, it was basically just 10 or so users posting some pretty racist content.
Recently, the owner put the site behind a waitlist to hide the fact that it basically has no active users…

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•(Repost) When do you think the Fediverse would have a leverage?English
1·2 years agoI wouldn’t say that. If it wasn’t for the whole reddit fiasco, I would’ve never even heard of Lemmy. Now I use it more than reddit.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•The Boost android client for Lemmy is displaying these dark pattern ads pretending to be system notifications. What security/privacy conscious Lemmy clients do you recommend?English
99·2 years agoThe title is a little disingenuous. Claiming this is a property of the Boost app isn’t correct… It’s just an ad network.
The fact that all your passwords change if you change your master password is not great.

Rust@programming.dev•Small pattern that made my code much cleanerEnglish
1·2 years agoYeah that’s a good point. This is a special case where the file is simply caching runtime results so errors surrounding it not being read aren’t a big deal.

Rust@programming.dev•Small pattern that made my code much cleanerEnglish
2·2 years agoA lot of the time, I have these around places where I’m reading from a file. If reading causes an error, regardless of what the error is, I just return None and a new file is created.

It’s a shame they got rid of SMS support. That was basically my selling factor when trying to convince someone to install the app. Now, it’s next to impossible to get someone to install it…



If you’ve used something like AppArmor, you’ll see how SELinux is overly complex.
