Yeah, this is the strange part for me. Pyarra was a very transparent, active admin. I’m sure all he had to do was shut it down, make one post a direct message to admins and one of the other mainstreams would’ve picked it up - hell I would’ve migrated it to my setup in NY if no one else would answer the call.
My point is - say anything, we’re all here to help.
Looks like this was setup by @rikudou@lemmings.world - good stuff!
Structured AF
Oh that’s from him?? Then yeah that’s what this seems like. But that’s exactly what I would do if illegal and risky shit ended up on my server. But I would post to another instance, Mastodon, or something to let users know what’s going on.
(feel bad I forgot his name and obviously can’t check now, he appears to be a great admin)
Went with lemmy.one because it felt really snappy while navigating communities. I was torn between .world and .one but then I saw that beehaw de-federated from .world which I didn’t like because beehaw has some of the more popular and active subs.
Yes I believe that’s him. Yeah, he might be in cold sweat mode. I’ve been there, but not with legal issues just down servers. It sounded like he “was spoken to” by someone about the local laws. That’s gotta suck.
That’s some sod looking gras
FTFY
If you take away what the people want
You’re gonna have a bad time. ⛷️
Is there a way to link posts in the context of the reader’s instance? Like with !c community links?
Oh this is rad! Good bot!
Yeah, saw this one. Could be many reasons it’s parked. Could’ve been doing maintenance, migration, missed a renewal, etc. Doesn’t mean it’s gone. Any DNS updates may be subject to TTLs as long as an hour or more (not usually but you never know), and that’s from whenever the update to DNS has been committed by the name servers, and then actually begins to propagate to other servers.
Yeah, who knows how good those admin tools are. Maybe he can nuke all content posted to and from certain instances at once?
Well, that would be shitty.
Not gonna go there at this point though. Like I said, he was a good admin up to this point. Just scary there’s complete radio silence. Like, what the heck happened lol.
I really liked that instance. I like my .one instance. But I don’t mind re-subbing etc. I just want access to the fediverse and prefer solid, but smaller instances, with blocking as a last resort. I’ll be the first to say, I want my downvote button, I’m the type of user that likes to see and compare karma, but none of that matters to the point where all is lost if I have to setup a new user. I’m also the type of user that formats my hard drive once a year to start fresh lol.
I realized that there are no downvotes on lemmy? Do I have that right? Wouldn’t downvoting allow for better community moderation?
Me too lol. Was going to just manually remind anyone I saw.
I can’t believe you’ve done this
Ha, ha, that’s awesome! I know both the feeling of cooking success and failure. Good for you, my dude!
Now, if someone can just teach me how I can make crispy style hash browns that don’t end up being somehow burnt and mushy at the same time!!
Yeah that’s what I’ve been doing. There was this great bot that was autocorrecting community links and I was hoping this was possible for post-links on Lemmy instances.
Lol, interesting! So I guess the downvote will have weight when viewing from .world for yourself and fellow .world users, but it won’t offer any weight on .one?
If I have that right it’s a very cool example of instances curating content for their local community members in a way that works for them. Doesn’t mean I won’t see someone’s comment, but a user that got buried may have a chance of being heard by other communities. Very cool.
The mail server records of a domain name do not usually point to the same server as other services like Lemmy.
Good point. Saturate first, then compartmentalize.
Sounds good! Thanks for the chat, really enjoying the experience so far. Have a great day!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Wait people have an issue with screening? Mine took less than 24 hours, but I’d wait a week. I don’t know how in the world mods and admins have the time to do this stuff but god bless ‘em.
Also, some instances like my own have disabled downvoting. I didn’t know that was a thing when I signed up, but I really enjoy .one so far. That being said I think disabling downvotes is killing the self moderation to the extent that it alters the expected flow of this type of curation platform and, most importantly, places excess loads on the mods.
Screening, let the users do their thing, mods step in when shit hits the fan. In that order.
Thanks to all you admins and mods for what you do, keeping the world moving for us internet junkies.
Plot twist!
Got it. Yeah reading more about it in some threads now. Can you downvote my posts from your instance while it’s disabled on my instance?
This is my main instance. Been solid for weeks since I signed up. I’m using my first from .one now. Not sure where to go for Q&A. Is there a Discord, Mastodon, Gangnam Style’s comment section on YouTube I can goto??
