  • It could happen if there was a very popular instance that didn't federate with others.

  • So, Is Genzedong@lemmygrad.ml blocked ? If yes, why?

    Jump
  • Because lemmygrad is pretty huge and other instances don't want their new users to be met with a flood of tankie content, most instances are blocking lemmygrad.

  • Unfortunately, rent control does have issues in the long run. Less profit for landlords does mean less money invested in new construction by people looking to make a profit. Less new construction eventually leads to shortages. It's great for those who already have housing, but those searching for a place to live have it more difficult under strict rent control. Though with how long construction projects take from planning to opening, this effect takes decades for any change to be noticeable.

  • As far as I can tell, Lemmy also auto-accepts moderators, but you can only do it with people who have posted or commented in the relevant community, because the "add as Moderator" button only shows up there.

  • Keine neuen Posts + gepinnter Post der den Protest erklärt, damit Leute die die letzte Woche nicht online waren wissen was los ist.

  • I don't have a script to automatically subscribe to a list of communities on a new account yet, that's a bit more difficult...

  • Ist mir eigentlich lieber dass sie auf feddit.de statt lemmy.ml verweisen. Das "ml" würde einige User vom Wechseln abschrecken.

  • Update: Seems to be back up!

  • Yeah, that's why I'm here. Ironic that the current status is that the site is down but 3rd party apps work..

    Site seems to be back up now.

  • I can open r/ukraine on RIF. 3rd party apps still work.

  • RIF still works lol.

  • At least with Lemmy there's lots of different servers, each with their own running costs.

    Each could try a different way of keeping the lights on. Some could run on donations only, some could use small unobtrusive ads on the side, some could do lots of ads. If any server does too little they'll go down due to lack of funding, if any server does too much the users will migrate elsewhere, as it's quite easy to make a new account on another instance and keep following the same communities.

    Even if we end up with some large-scale instances with big servers, millions of users and serious money involved, they won't have a monopoly on all the content like with reddit, so the competition should keep them from doing anything stupid.

  • German "Catastrophe" is "Katastrophe". "Katzastrophe" is "Katze"+"Katastrophe", which in english would be "cat" + "catastrophe"... oh.

  • It's just the site, 3rd party apps still work lol...

    Edit: Partially. RIF works on r/all, but not the home page.

  • Ich meinte halt dass nicht alle User und Communities der Plattform weg sind wenn ein Server offline geht. Wenn du unbedingt deinen eigenen Account und deine Communities sicher haben willst kannst du auf eigener Hardware hosten.

  • Die Leute die den Server hosten auf dem die Accounts registriert sind können mit den Daten machen was sie wollen, das ist mehr oder weniger für alle möglichen Seiten der Fall. Bei Lemmy sind dann schlimmstenfalls die Accounts und Communities von dem Server weg statt die gesamte Plattform. Solange Accounts und Communities über viele Server verteilt sind ist der Schaden dann relativ begrenzt.

  • Couldn't you just make a new account on another instance and link to it on your old profile? Perhaps a feature to subscribe to export/import your subscribed communities would be nice.
