Lucky for you, python is quite readable and the person who wrote it is available to answer any questions you might have.

On PieFed, that character is automatically converted to ‘th’.

Yeah I’m not arguing with you on this just sharing information I found.

Yes, I see, lots of parallels there.

Apparently Trump is quite a fan of drone strikes too:

There have been 2,243 drone strikes in the first two years of the Trump presidency, compared with 1,878 in Mr Obama’s eight years in office,

Do you care to name an incident, so we can compare?

It’s not live on piefed.ca yet :)

Installed qbittorrent and downloaded a few seasons of Linux isos onto a vps. Discovered accessing those files over SSH to be too slow to play them without buffering so installed filebrowser to get them via http which worked well.

It’s been a long long time since I used bittorrent and wow it works so much better these days.

The only part of the url that actually does anything is p/1385905 which functions the same way piefed.social/post/1385905 does. So that /c/politics bit has no effect on which post is displayed and it could be any string of gibberish. There are communities called ‘politics’ on many instances and this url scheme doesn’t differentiate between them, but I’m ok with that.

I have removed the @ now, perhaps that’ll make it easier for you.

Ok we’re now generating links like this instead https://piefed.social/c/politics/p/1385905/will-the-supreme-court-hand-government-contractors-blanket-immunity

Oh, interesting. I think having a ‘@’ in the url is going to be a problem for a lot of different software. I’ll remove that part.

Can you see this? https://piefed.social/c/lemmy@lemmy.ml/p/1384152/piefed-finally-fixes-lemmys-ugly-post-urls

Ah, I missed that earlier. Yeah, not going to happen.

hell yeah

No Kings day next week.

Thank you for this counter-weight!
