If they tied a bookwyrm comments section to an ISBN number for example then anybody/site could easily have it embedded to make it a universal tool rather than specifically connected to a piracy site.

There’s an author called Frickles whose alternate universes never fail to surprise and capture my imagination. I think you might be benefit from seeing ‘A discordant pattern’, and ‘a straight flush’.

I think the early access model has worked so far, (meaning Rowling and her lawyers have allowed it to happen). I suspect if the money being made exceeds a certain amount they’ll probably sue Patreon or something. Unless patreon’s terrible business decisions cause it to collapse first lol.

5 years ago all authors dared to do was to publish another book and advertise it using their fanfiction. Occasionally they’d ask for Kofi too.

Rowling already stopped a certain wiki site (which she admitted to using herself lol!) from publishing a kind of encyclopaedic book on the world of Harry Potter iirc. Though it could be argued that they were just reusing content which is the closest thing to plagiarism but not plagiarism.

I enjoyed the first one. Haven’t got round to looking at the second one. Can’t remember why I decided not to watch when it was released…

Yeah, it’s silly and odd and likely done to push customers towards formats that they have greater control over.

Those epubs that aren’t really epubs, randomly disallowing azw3 files (that they support officially!!!) from being downloaded directly from the kindle’s built in browser and other restrictive behaviour are part of this. That’s why I’m eventually looking to enable epubs on kindle once the people at mobileread find a way to do it. Apparently calibre can be set up to send files too via email so that’s another option.

They’re not though. They only do over the cloud conversions from epub to an amazon proprietary format, that can make the covers or formatting go awry.

It’s been disabled for now because of CSAM spam.

If the community is on another server, I recommend using an alt from yet another server, making the alt a mod and then add it that way? It worked for me.

I remember the two boys from the Youtube channel BoyBoy(?) speaking on Trash Taste about going to North Korea. They said it was pretty easy and apparently the simplest process they’d had. Maybe Australia is strict with that sort of thing? The only issues they had thereafter was going to the US apparently. US border people were apparently mad that they’d visited Korea for some reason.

I still need to watch their actual video of the trip: We Went To North Korea To Get A Haircut

I’m envisioning Bookwyrm behaving as a comments section for anna’s archive (possibly all/any decentralised book repositary), but they’d be reviews instead. I’m reminded of discus or facebook that you often get embedded on certain sites.

I’m hearing this happens with the bodies of Palestinians as well.

You sound sarcastic lol. Maybe its because I follow a lot of artists who have similar concerns.

It’s not worthless, there’s 500 million dollars worth of gas north of Gaza that Israel wants to secure. They’re already stealing it and have been for years. And the 75 year long occupation must end of course.

I would have thought this was common knowledge. I suspect these redditors just don’t put any effort into recall or thinking in general.

No you dimwit. I read the papers. Normal people do do that. Dimwit.

Well this will fix the various social crises in that country for sure.

I like the instance despite not being on it and have no particular disagreement with these people, but I was was forced to see a fedpost and their defenders here. This is neither his home nor private.

edit: He’s the mod lol.

Will they ban Facebook which facilitated a genocide?

edit: there are many a genocide lover on lemmy sadly.
