I haven’t been able to sign in on Firefox desktop ever since the new upgrade/migration. I’ve tried disabling extensions but that hasn’t worked either. I’m on version 114.0.2 of firefox...
The people that you want me to engage with believe I should be robbed of my rights, denied medical care, and sometimes encourage me to kill myself.
I am an advocate, visible and vocal in my day to day life. But I need some spaces that aren't that, where I don't have to have my shields up and be in super defence mode just to share some memes and talk about board games.
I've been involved with community development for close to 30 years. I know how it works. I've seen it all.
Your comment, whilst well intentioned, misses the reality of the cost of openly being a member of a minority that is actively targeted by bigots with hate in their hearts.
Does it? What about you, guys? Sitting, standing, or why even bother getting out of bed? Do you care to stop your truck before pee to the bottle? Does your boss let you walk away from the cash desk?
Please make sure you have "undetermined" selected in your list of spoken languages in your lemmy settings in addition to any other languages you speak....
So, posts get federated when someone is subscribed to the group in question, but not before then. If you're the first person on your instance to subscribe to a group, then you won't see content from before then. It's designed that way, because sending the entire community history every time a new instance pops up isn't sustainable.
So, new or newer instances will not be able to view old posts and comments from established instances?
They can, they just have to search for it manually. So if you see content on a group that your instance isn't aware of for some reason, if you copy and paste the URL in to the search box of your instance, it will pull the post across for you to interact with.
Wouldn’t this behavior discourage new instances from forming as the bedrock of content grows?
Not really. Aside from the fact that things like mailing lists remain useful even without easy access to their archived content, there are a few mitigating factors as well
Firstly, as I mentioned above, you can manually pull content across.
Secondly, if someone who can see the old thread replies to it, then that will force it to federate to your instance, as long as someone on your instance is subscribed to the group.

OC Dearest developers. Stop reinventing the wheel!
(Please keep in mind this is something I've written in regards to all of these various social platforms, not just kbin, mastodon, lemmy, etc)...

Long post about lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml
Wrote this as a comment, but was too long. Feel free to disagree....
