Yeah based on @ernest referencing the newly spun up fedia.io , I suspect that's the right one to recommend. I don't know what kind of load balancing efforts are going on between them, but hopefully quite a bit.

oh no, that was a typo. I'm sorry! It's the one you already have: fedia.io

I'll try and fix that and update. Thanks for trying it out :)

updated with version 0.2 which fixes that

edit: lol up to version 0.6 now

It works on Android Firefox but alignment is a little wonky on mobile. I'll fix it later

version 0.8 works great on mobile now

That's exactly what's happening. It's a wild time to be alive.

Based on observations of which subreddits are going dark/migrating and which ones are staying, IMO Reddit is about to swing hard toward conservative/fascist in the coming days/weeks.

Today I'm undertaking the effort of moving all my persistent post content relating to my projects from Reddit elsewhere. I think in the mid-term future Reddit will be as bad a name to be associated with as Voat or 8chan.

Yes, i agree that greed and investor pleasing is the cause.

My original comment was simply that I see the effect being that only the conservatives and alt-right remain on reddit, and become the dominant voice.

For users who don't want the whole theme but just want the feature, you can use this tiny tampermonkey script https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/468461-kbin-move-comments-below-new-comment-control

You are correct. Amusing that you posted it to Nudism, though. Perhaps we need a LostKbinners / LostLemmings magazine

Well you succeeded in making an article to start a thread.

So far I've found you can subscribe to and block magazines. So for example I've blocked some non English ones and gaming. There's a filter button just left of your username that lets you only see subscribed magazines I think.

You can block magazines, it's the 🚫 button next to the subscribe button when scrolled to the bottom of a Magazine's content.

Then under your account settings you can change your home from All to Subscriptions as well

Here's one I wrote which recursively collapses comments, and collapses top-level comments by default

Pssst... any ideas for a domain name for the new instance?

Hi there! I've been trying to improve the situation for the past few hours. I managed to disable CF Protection, and as you can see, I'm gradually allowing traffic from the fediverse. There may still be delays in deliveries and posts for some time. If anything is particularly troublesome, please let me know through the contact...

Thank you for explaining that. It completely makes sense now why the UI seems to support it but it feels like we're shadow banned in replying to federated content.

I traversed Fark to StumbleUpon to Digg to Reddit and now here...

Hah, that was my decision trigger as well. I figured it had to have the best odds.

How can lemmy handle 5k+ signups per hour on Monday?

When reddit goes dark on Monday, there will be a horde of people looking for an alternative. When the APIs go dark at the end of the month, another horde will come. When /u/spez says just about anything, it'll happen again. What can we do to prep here for that? How can we attract good moderators to moderate communities here?...

CodingAndCoffee,

Yeah, if anything this is making me kind of feel like an old fart of a software engineer. I'm on kbin and responding to what I'm guessing is a Lemmy.ml post but I honestly can't tell right now where "here" is.

CodingAndCoffee,

I'm mostly using kbin as a webapp so the url bar is gone. Perhaps not the best choice for UX on the fediverse.

You must be on kbin to have seen my comment. It doesn't appear on the original comment tree, and neither does yours:

Exactly. All of this was caused by uncontrolled greed.
