In the past months, there’s a been a issue in various instances where accounts would start uploading blatant CSAM to popular communities. First of all this traumatizes anyone who gets to see it before the admins get to it, including the admins who have to review to take it down. Second of all, even if the content is a link to...
Hey peeps. By now you all heard that Zuck’s meta has started and in a defederated mode. This instance has already signed the Anti-Meta Fedi Pact and we plan to not help improve the value of Facebook, if and when they plan to open federation....
After lemmy.fmhy.ml shut down due to Mali just withdrawing all domains without notice, their new site never quite got the same traction as the old one, and it seems the technical issues kept piling up as well, including a catastrophic failure of a VM or something I think....
Hey everyone, you may have noticed that some of us have been raising alarms about the amount of spam accounts being created on insufficiently protected instances....
Our little instance is closing to 6 months of operations and it occurs to me I never really asked for some open feedback from our peeps. So I wanted to start a discussion to see your concerns and comments in general. So tell me, in the context of the divisions by zero, what bothers you, what pleases you, what would you like to...
We have nice theme etc, but can we have alternative? Only dark theme is bad, so please add default lemmy ui as option. Also, if possible more ui options always good: old reddit github.com/rystaf/mlmym, alexandrite github.com/sheodox/alexandrite, voyager github.com/aeharding/voyager). It can be as subdomains for example.
Hey everyone, today I sadly woke up to a distressing email by my provider, telling me that “Waves Audio Ltd” (http://waves.com) sent them a takedown request about a guide posted to crack their app. This is complete bullshit of course, but the provider threatened to shut off my whole IP address. For now I’ve taken down the...
I had disabled our custom emojis due to the recent exploit but now that we’ve upgraded to 0.18.2, these should all be fixed. So I’ve reuploaded them....
If you create a community and you invite a mod from another instance, and that mod edits that community description, then that community's local url will break. By local url I mean the one where you go to https:instance.tld/c/community_name. The community will also not appear in "local communities"....
Listen lads, lasses and lassless, I got a long day ahead of me, having to upgrade pict-rs, postgres and lemmy, so there might be some intermittent downtimes. You know how it is around here…not professionally at all....
I used to have an account on feddit, which is a german lemmy instance. For three months now I am only getting “Server error” when trying to visit it. Can anybody reach it? Is there any site where I can check the state of instances? Or was I banned?...
Hello, and sorry beforehand if this is not the correct place. I found a matrix support channel that doesn’t work and I looked almost everywhere. Is there a way I could get in contact with somebody that can change the email?...
This time the issue was on the lemmy.world side where their federation worker responsible for lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.blahaj.zone and lemmings.world among others b0rked and was sending 1 federation per minute at best. Unfortunately it seems just that single federation worker borked, which affected us again, because we’re...
I’ve been having a bit of trouble loading the lemmy site today. It times out and takes ages to load quite often. I tested with other websites (Wikipedia, a school website, google) and while my mobile data is… not fast, it is not as slow as db0 is running....
