Gotta say this being one of my first impressions of lemmy... Its not great. Beehaw had a large tech and gaming section that I literally only just subbed too.

This is one of the biggest things I think Lemmy needs. You should be able to create a backup of your profile and export/import it into another instance. That way if something happens or you have a problem with the instance admins you can migrate with no loss or minimal loss to your account.

From what I have seen so far not likely. Though it would be nice if users were given some type of warning when attempting to post/comment/reply to defederated instances.

No. The short story there was an inactive mod was top mod and came back just to make the whole sub private and got backlash from the most active mod about it. Admins ended up removing the inactive mod. There is additional back and forth between the two that got posted but it basically ends as the one actually doing the work gained full control.

Yea I mean I get it. It just sucks that this is the first real experience I am having with this system. Would have been nice to get a little more experience under my feet before having to deal with this. I suppose this should be expected. Lemmy is likely experiencing some extreme growing pains unlike anything it has seen before.

I totally understand that while this is an annoyance at the end of the day this is likely still a more desirable outcome then what is happening with Reddit. At least here that set of admins can only do so much damage to the overall system while the Reddit admins have total control over the whole system.

ljdawson the dev has created the official community for sync for Lemmy: !syncforlemmy@lemmy.world

Admin account was compromised. Looks like they are working on it but it will take a bit to fix all the stupid that was done.

EDIT: Looks like things are starting to resolve.

EDIT 2: MichelleG account admin was restored and she posted and update but shortly after the changes happened again. Her account is likely still compromised with someone else accessing things via it.

EDIT 3: lemmy.world back online. MichelleG has again been removed as admin. Most things appear to have been cleaned up. Blocked instances still need to be fixed however.

My problem is they had the technology. We gotta build a new technology now.

It was not created the same dev. He endorsed it but it was someone totally different.

Thanks for the work. As a heads up it appears most of the block instances are back however I believe explodingheads is still missing which you may want to confirm.

EDIT: it has been added back to the block list.

Galaxy S20: I have not found a compelling reason to upgrade

Home assistant

Jellyfin

Sonarr

Radarr

Prowlarr

Readarr

Organizr

Overseerr

Transmission

Calibre web

And a couple discord bots

magazine = community = subreddit

Magazine is the term used for kbin.social users like @Gamers_Mate@kbin.social who is a Kbin user. In Lemmy they are called communities.

You can do a search on your local instance like:

https://lemmy.world/communities

or use a community browser like:

https://browse.feddit.de/

That would be a bug on liftoff. Report it there instead of trying to make another account.

!liftoff@lemmy.world

The JWT exploit bypasses 2FA requirements. It basically steals your active session and allows a third party to use it.

Yep. MichelleG admin was added back and posted an update but it doesnt appear that her account was fully secured so they are probably still accessing it via her account.

I have done basically the same thing. With a few differences.

I setup Transmission and SaBnzbd on the NAS but offloaded sonarr/radar/prowlarr + jellyfin to my server so it's not taking up resources from the NAS.

Found Usenet to download significantly faster overall and sonarr/radar get releases from them much quicker then torrents. Only about 1/15 downloads end up being torrents.

Also overseerr is an amazing tool that you should add into your system. I use it for myself but I also have made accounts for my family so instead of asking me to download something they can just press two buttons and it automatically does the rest.

There are several months until the game is even out. It could run like crap now and be great at release or great now and crap at release. Only time will actually tell.

Your user login only works on your instance. Any instance that is federated with your instance you can interact with through your instance. You cant interact with a different instance directly.

Which is why in the screenshots above You cant vote on the first one since that is interacting directly with lemmy.ml. However you can interact with the second because you are interacting with lemmy.ml through lemmy.world

Learning to follow hashtags was a game changing moment for me on Mastodon. Went from not really using it at all to frequent user.

I think a part of the "giving up to reddit mods" is the hopes that it will incentivise the reddit mods to push their subreddit to the community instead of trying to keep people on reddit just to maintain power.

Personally I have made several communities that I enjoyed in reddit. While I dont mind modding it's kind of a pain in the ass as well though.

I have to imagine the reason would have been this

This is a stickied comment on the pinned post from a deleted account around 11 hours ago. So I am assuming it was you. If I had to guess admin either decided to do it or another mod in that team complained to the admins because they wanted to take control.

Not sure this needed to be posted 11 times.

Beehaw has defederated from around 380 instances according to: https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances

It's all public information.

Admins are shown on the front page

Modlog shows even when an admin is added or removed.

Blocked instances are shown in the instances list.

Considering the current state of other subs turning to NSFW content to hurt Reddits chances with advertisers I imagine that is what happened.

Seems like it was an innocent enough thing that happened at a bad time and you got hit by it by either accident or another mod stabbing you in the back.

Also you should be viewing content via lemmy.world not directly on Lemmy.ml. that's how federation works.

As you can see here this is what you see if you are just on lemmy.ml

If you are on lemmy.world and viewing content you see:
