My main account is dragontamer@lemmy.world. It has turned out that a 2nd account on the federation is a good idea. I’ll use this dragontamer@lemmy.ca account when lemmy.world gets DDOSed (or other such events), allowing me to continue posting and moderating even if my main account goes down.

This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.

dragontamer,

That didn’t fit with his limiting how many tweets users are able to view.

The theory behind that is that Twitter failed to pay for their web-services and needed to suddenly cut traffic, otherwise they’d be shutdown by Amazon / Google.

After Twitter paid Amazon/Google, they raised the tweet view-limits appropriately, but the damage was already done.

dragontamer,

Ongoing DDOS attack right now. Testing federation post with my alt-account. Lemmy.world is down as of this post, but I’m still able to get to Lemmy.ca as expected.

dragontamer,

Additional info: Use lemmy-status.org to see lemmy.world status

Go to (alternative_instance)/c/support@lemmy.world for backup instances!! Take advantage of federation

So there’s lots of alternative instances that remain federated with Lemmy.world. It may take some number of minutes to move data between Lemmy.world and alternative instances, but you should be able to stay reasonably up-to-date to this support forum as long as federation works....

dragontamer,

Case in point: lemmy.world/comment/668202

This comment here, I made it from lemmy.world. And… its not here yet on the lemmy.ca side! The lemmy.world thinks that the post is getting transferred over, but… there’s a bug. Something seems to be stopping my post from coming over.

dragontamer,

On this subject: the lemmy.world administrators have been investigating the federation issue on their end (see: lemmy.world/post/818810). Note that lemmy.world is still on version 0.17.4.

I’m wondering if the problem could be on the lemmy.ca end as well, or a bug in 0.18.0. In either case, I felt the need to report this federation-bug.

I know that various lemmy-administrators have been forced to tweak worker-settings and play around with timeouts to get federation working correctly (or at least, working better). The default settings are simply not workable, not with the #RedditBlackout growth upon this corner of the Fediverse.

dragontamer,

lemmy.world/comment/668202

This post still hasn’t federated over. So I don’t think Lemmy.world posts come to Lemmy.ca posts yet.

But today, Lemmy.ca posts seem to be appearing correctly (or more correctly) on Lemmy.world.

dragontamer,

Test post for my alt to be promoted to moderator.
