Yeah, I’ve had a think after I made my previous reply and the questionable part mentioned isn’t the archiving, but the inclusion of the deleted/removed comments.
I still haven’t started with the script mentioned in a different comment, but if I were to do it, I’d likely be putting a one second delay on every request.
In my response to someone, I already expressed concern about their long-term visibility–which is the reason why I even thought of doing this. I can’t do anything about “contribution to a public discussion” if those very discussions pretty much disappear. This might be showing my lack of knowledge about what federation actually is, and if it is, it’s pretty much on me.
For the second point, I already addressed it in the OP and in one of my responses. I’m pretty much not a programmer and my knowledge about it is pretty much writing a “hello world” program.
I’d rather not bother my admins (they’re already burnt-out), and with what you just said, maybe I’m better off doing it manually–if I would do it afterall. TBH, I’m scared off by the impression that saving my own posts and comments is somehow taboo.

Diagnosed BIpolar 1, mostly depressive, but sometimes manic.
I am deathly afraid of the manic episodes that I’ve got some fear of “being too happy”. I’d rather deal with the lows (even the lowest of the low) because at least with those, I can trust myself to lack the energy to be destructive. I am fairly confident that in my lowest, I won’t even have the energy to commit suicide even if I want to.
Mania is a very different beast altogether. It might manifest on a spectrum from “just too wired up for sleep” to, in a couple of really badly unmanaged episodes, going off to an entirely different part of the country on a whim just because “who cares, I’m dying anyways?” Only through sheer luck did I manage to get home safe both times.
That said, honest self-awareness, honesty to the mental health professionals, and sticking to the treatment plan could make it manageable. It’s no guarantee, but it helps.
It also helps to manage expectations: the treatment won’t be on target especially on the first states, while the doctors adjust the medication and the dosage, deal with the side effects, etc. Some kind of faith in the process is necessary, I think–not blind trust, but trust that if you inform the doctors honestly any effects (side effects or not) to the best of your abilities, then the doctors can manage the condition better than if you think “I feel fine, the meds aren’t needed anymore!”
The treatment–the management of the condition is likely to last until the very end, and that’s fine.
About being in a relationship? It’s really up to the person and their partner: I wouldn’t trust myself to go on in a relationship without at least informing my partner about it–and keeping them up to date with “my mood weather report”. However it probably takes experience, a few cycles to get used to it.
I tried Zen for a while during the peak of its hype, and it’s fine. It’s too “Apple” for my taste though, with limited UI customization. It’s opinionated, and I quite like the overall look, but it just felt off to me. It’s nice to look at, but a bit off to use.
I actually had this trajectory: Vanilla Firefox -> (manually) hardened Firefox -> Librewolf -> Floorp
I wasn’t actually displeased with Librewolf, but I found it a bit sparse when it comes to customization. I am aware that I’m trading customization with security when I made the last jump, but given my opsec situation, I don’t think I am being careless with switching to Floorp, and it has some decent security defaults, so I stuck with it.
Everyone else’s usecases may vary and even Floorp with its customization options isn’t for everyone. That’s the beauty of Firefox and its forks, if you ask me. There’s likely something for everyone–and for some, Firefox might be it.
No one mentioned Floorp yet, so I guess it’s on me.
It’s Firefox, but with more customization options right out of the box. I also have an ungoogled Chromium on standby for those sites unwilling to work well with Firefox (and forks).
EDIT:
Oh, it’s mentioned in the OP:
Floorp: A random find from exploring Linux for the first time. I was running Pop!_OS and found it on the store. I’ve never experienced such a smooth Firefox fork before. It really is barebones, but has a lot of customization built in. Instead of the custom options piling on one another, most of them change how it works on a foundational level. The style of your UI and tabs, side tabs, fading URL bar buttons, and a lot more. At it’s core, Floorp is a stripped down and security first FF fork developed in Japan. I took the time to translate the TOS pages, and most of it is promising that there is no data collection. It’s fairly vetted and trusted from what I’ve researched.
I was thinking of those composite names too, like Juan Miguel Archangel (John Michael Archangel) but the person having such a name would just choose at most two and would introduce themselves as John, or Michael, or Miguel.
And it only gives you the votes you give while using Voyager. If you’re using Lemmy via other platforms (like desktop/laptop) or other apps, of course it won’t give you the full picture.
Can’t remember exactly why I put a profile picture here, but I guess I was thinking “oh, someone might use the same username I use in some other instance, so I guess I’ll put something to differentiate.”
Whether or not that actually hurts my own statement, I’ll leave it for the others to decide. I think posting/comment volume + striking username (and profile picture) + unique voice = recognizability. I think only have one of three, so… IDK!
Suffering exists just because. People who don’t deserve it live lives of comfort and decadence. There’s no rhyme or reason to life. And the punchline isn’t even apparent to any of us.
Oh, I use that too on my mobile app (Voyager). I am starting to think that once the total votes reach some threshold, either I’d encounter them consistently dishing out hot takes, or I’m primed to think their take is hot and spicy.

Got me!
I am still into that research. Yes. Research. For science!

Don’t use Voyager that often, but you’re currently +4

I don’t think I’ve done anything that would warrant that, but thanks!
Pakalat-kalat lang ako. Kung saan lang mapagtripan. 😅
Bihira lang din akong magpost kasi madalas wala rin naman akong masabi o maidagdag.
I’m just hanging around at random places. Wherever my fancy takes me.
I rarely post too, since I rarely have anything to say or add.
Thanks…?
Let’s see when we meet each other in some other corner of Lemmy.
Oh, I use that too on my mobile app (Voyager). I am starting to think that once the total votes reach some threshold, either I’d encounter them consistently dishing out hot takes, or I’m primed to think their take is hot and spicy.
