I can't do much at the moment from my home in Ohio, but just wanted you all to know we stand with you and are thinking about you....

Hey folks, got off Reddit early last year but have been procrastinating on finding a replacement. Finally got around to joining the LemmyBinVerse and figured I would join a more-regional server....

Depressing to see 196 get flooded with neoliberals, libertarians, and apolitical assholes standing against Palestine. Seems like most of them are coming from lemmy.world but still

Right now to avoid troll posts only mods can post. If you are interested in being a mod let me know. If you just want to post something let me know as well and I'll post it for you.

Upgraded to 0.19.1 and checked lemmy.ml as an example and everything is coming over from both sides.

Checking federation for 0.19

Please let me know of any issues you may experience. Right now I just occasionally see some toast errors pop up.

Are we going to defederate right away, see over time, or stay federated?

There are reports of spam coming from specific users on lemmy.blahaj.zone. I stumbled across some very unpleasant NSFL content on an unrelated post. I wouldn’t reccomend it, but you could check soot@lemmy.blahaj.zone’s profile for an example if it hasn’t been taken down yet....

We finally got 'em! 🦀🦀🦀🦀

Following this comment: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4039#issuecommen… I updated the timestamps in the instance table of midwest.social’s database. We’ll see if that fixes anything. Fingers crossed. For example, the updated timestamp column for lemmy.world was sometime on 10-30-23.

In the past several days, I’ve noticed that comments that I make on this instance to cross-instance communities started to take up to several hours to propagate to the community’s home instance, and now do not seem to propagate at all....

If you go to c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world through midwest.social, it shows fewer subscribers in the sidebar than if you go straight to lemmy.world (midwest.social/c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world vs lemmy.world/c/homeimprovement). Also, there are posts that only show up when you look at c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world through the...

My instance seems to be having issues federating content. Trying to test this out.

Hello beautiful people,...

(Feel free to remove if not allowed)...

Michigander here! Excited to be a part of the threadiverse. I still have a reddit account, but I plan on spending far more time in the fediverse vs corpo social media going forward. Reddit and Discord are my only holdouts....

I’m getting an error when I try to attach an image to posts. Am I just too prolific and there’s a cool down?...

Ignoring fascists and other bad actors does not stop them from doing bad things and/or radicalizing others. This is a common complaint I see in online communities, and it’s a flawed strategy that is a good way to lose ground to bad actors....

I didn’t know where else to post it, sorry. Hopefully the Canadians see this too. We should make sure to have a whole server post on this every year.

I’m not sure if it’s just the larger instances getting the brunt of it, or if we’ve been quietly handling it in the background, but I just wanted to float the question in case it’s something you have to be actively looking out for....
