  • No, if you set the option

    {
      pictrs: {
        image_mode: "None"
      }
    }
    

    none of the remote media gets stored.

    At least the database doesn’t have any references to any. And browsing the communities all the images and videos are loaded from external sources.

    At the moment I suspect that lemmy is still instructing pict-rs to store them but not actually writing this to the database. But I’d like some proof of that first.











  • I love the Turkish/German multicultural productions by Fatih Akin.

    • Kebab Connection
    • Solino
    • Im Juli
    • Gegen die Wand

    The last one was very controversial when people clocked that the female lead Sibel Kekilli used to star in porn movies. She went on to play Shae in Game of Thrones and the lead investigator in the German crime movie series Tatort.

    I think my favourite Fatih Akin movie is Im Juli. A funny love story of a man chasing his love through eastern Europe from Germany to Turkey.

    And now that I think back on the time when I watched those movies I’m reminded of the brilliant Skandinavian movies out there.

    • De grønne slagtere
    • I Kina spiser de hunde
    • Smala Sussie

    Good times, when my best friend would knock on my door (without having to bother my parents), we’d smoke some weed and then watch some Monty Python, Battlestar Galactica or the next great European movie we could find.
