Not active on Lemmy any longer. If you send me a DM, I won't see it. Sorry!

  • Is lemm.ee hosted in the US? (FediDB info)

    Jump

  • Our servers are all hosted in Finland indeed, but we use Cloudflare for DDoS protection etc. Clients/bots/scripts/etc (like FediDB) don't see our server IP addresses directly, they see Cloudflare IP addresses. FediDB uses the IP address it sees to assume what country the server is in.

    The same is true for a bunch of other Lemmy servers as well - a lot of the ones FediDB shows as "United States" are actually hosted in Europe (or elsewhere).

  • [NO LONGER ACTIVE] Announcing an April charity event!

    Jump

  • What I mean is that some posters have a bunch of alts on different instances, and if they get awards split between their accounts, then they'll be at a bit of a disadvantage 😄

    Jump

  • This is cool!

    Any rules for alts? Can people "claim" alt accounts to sum up their votes?

  • 🤔 Does my Lemmy instance support video streaming?

    Jump

  • It's very unlikely lemm.ee will ever be a suitable host for video content. Please host your videos on other platforms, embedding them on lemm.ee posts will work just fine.

  • Summit for Lemmy is Open Source

  • Whenever you give your free time and energy to build something open source for the world, there are always some people who say “why aren’t you giving me 10x more, you lazy dev” 😅

  • Could I ask you to try again with the app and let me know if it's working for you now?

  • Hey, for the past few weeks, we have been tuning different rate limits and other bot prevention mechanisms on lemm.ee. We have had a huge increase in traffic lately, as well as a couple of instances of what was effectively a DDoS.

    In other words, the problems likely have nothing to do with your app or different versions, and everything to do with our own measures.

    For the mark post as read endpoint, I recently made the rate limit a bit more relaxed, so hopefully users won't see issues there anymore. OTOH, we are also presenting a Cloudflare challenge for some IP ranges currently, which may inadvertently affect legit users. This was necessary to mitigate a recent DDoS, but we will continue tuning and hopefully restore things to normal for legit users soon.

  • lemm.ee is growing. Welcome, new members!

    Jump

  • Hey, there isn’t any default community right now. There are a few different databases that track graphs of such things, for example, fedidb.org.

  • lemm.ee is growing. Welcome, new members!

    Jump

  • Thank you very much for the support!

    Our infrastructure costs are currently quite stable at around 200€ per month, and considering that the instance is right now quite decently supporting nearly 6000 monthly active users, you could say that you are indeed relatively contributing a ton - you are effectively covering server costs for 60 people!

    The fact that it’s a monthly amount is particularly great, because with recurring income, we will get advanced warning if there is danger of funds starting to run low.

    Jump

  • We had a few really huge days in 2023, but other than those, it seems like the growth so far in March is definitely outpacing our initial wave of new users in 2023.

  • Activities behind for publishing to an old hostname for my instance before production ready

  • Lemmy software resolves it automatically - it marks such instances as dead and stops sending activities to them.

  • [Solved] Potential email verification issue due to a registration influx following a post promoting Lemm.ee on /r/BuyFromEu

    Jump

  • That's just Lemmy behavior for when you click the e-mail verification link multiple times. It basically means "e-mail already verified".

  • Pictrs/Image Uploads not working

    Jump

  • Can you share the exact error you are getting as well?

    It seems to go through for me:

  • Pictrs/Image Uploads not working

    Jump

  • Could you upload an example image which does not work somewhere else and share it with me so I can try to reproduce the issue?

    Admin team update

  • [Serious] Why did Beehaw defederate from Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works for poor moderation and not lemm.ee and discuss.online?

    Jump

  • lemm.ee hosts a conservative community, which on occasion features borderline transphobia and homophobia.

    Hi, lemm.ee admin here, please be sure to report any cases of community moderators not following lemm.ee instance rules directly to admins. The "no bigotry" rule is a treated very seriously at lemm.ee, and our admins will always handle such cases very harshly. We have in the past had to shut down a few conservative-type communities over such things. Having said that, I am not aware of the current moderators of that community allowing, much less featuring, any kind of bigotry (in fact, a quick look over the mod log shows them actively removing bigotry, usually posted by users from outside lemm.ee).

    By the way, I know there are a lot of users on Lemmy who really enjoy starting defederation drama (I've lost count at this point of how many users like you I've seen), but is there really nothing better you could be doing on a Friday evening? Maybe go for a walk, spend time with some close ones, read a book, whatever. You are not gaining absolutely anything from what you are trying to do here.

  • Hi, there is no free speech policy on lemm.ee, we have very strict moderation when it comes to our rules. We regularly permaban users for breaking our instance rules. We simply don't use defederation as a moderation tool, preferring other tools like user bans, for reasons outlined here: https://lemm.ee/post/35472386
