I can see it in liftoff and lemmy.world mobile site, so could be a Jerboa problem

I wonder if that’s the point, I mean it probably is abit much to be the biggest name and have a lot of people attempting to join. That was the whole goal was small narrow focus instances, so by intentionally provoking members that tend to be more techy and understand how to change instances, they’re pushing them to help grow other instances and help limit flow into lemmy.world.

Or not, I wonder if soon it’ll make sense if instances become more democratic and allow member voting (that have been apart of the server for some time) for decisions like this, people will be mad either way (especially with only two options of fed or defed) but letting it be clear that the people are ok with it.

With federation, the content is shared between servers, that’s the act of federation. It downloads the posts from the other instance. So it would then be stored on lemmy.world, the only way to stop that is to defederate. The mobile apps mostly solve this problem as you can view content from lemmy.world and choose to add other instances, but the browser version isn’t setup to work that way, so it’s less than perfect, but it’s supposed to be easy for this content to exist all on its own and only show to other users in a single place when they want that. So if the admin team is afraid the largest community on a small and growing platform won’t have the means to fight a legal battle no matter if it is legal or not (I’ve been hearing a lot of legals), I get their reaction. hell reddit could easily target and crush Lemmy.world in court if they wanted to kill the platform. It isn’t much work as unfortunate as it is to go to that instance for that content

I think it’ll be tough to find that corner of it… I think I saw a conservative community on lemmy.world but the platforms original purpose was to get away from the big, controlling, capitalist social media platforms the likes of Twitter, Instagram, reddit, etc. Like mastodon, the largest part of the fediverse (I’m pretty sure), grew alot when twitter was brought by Elon, and more moved after he messed up the platform enough, saying they’ll create their own platform where hate won’t be allowed. It’s kinda against it’s nature to have much conservative-ness.

Not trying to be rude as based on how this sounds, you seem nice enough and not crazy, but places like mastodon are basically the left’s version of “Truth social” where people are pretty ok with saying “I don’t want those thoughts spread here” those thoughts they don’t want are usually things like homophobia or transphobia, but those are fairly common on the right even if you don’t share them.

It’s an interesting thought and would probably be alittle healthier, but hey you’re still here being able to provide that counter point of view

If you got any programming skills, Lemmy’s code is open source and improvements to these expensive calls (or just any call) would most likely help the server. I’m also sure moderation tools would probably make their job easier and just improvements to the platform as a whole would probably help (more users, more possible donations, especially if it gets closer to platforms like reddit)

But without any technical skills like that, probably just helping communicate stuff like this, like if someone’s complaining, explaining this, is probably the best you can do (and it ain’t much)

I know it feels like its that often, but its actually still in the upper 90s atleast according to the status site, and its 89% for the last week on an external status page (which probably sees its up by attempting to load the page so its probably close to real life data)

You have to remember that until recently, there was sub 100 daily users, this wasn’t a big platform, and it wasn’t just lemmy.ml, but a bunch of <10 user instances.

It wasn’t worth paying for a small side project until it wasn’t and at that point it was too late, plus who would have predicted that the gov of Mali would forcefully take back all of their domains?

I didn’t even know it started, lots of games I’ve been interested in…

Can anyone recommend humankind? I’ve heard it’s kinda like a civ knock off but I haven’t heard much for or against it

Building off what the other guy said, you’ll want to upgrade the hard drive when you can, I got the 64gb one and got two 500+ gb sd cards, but the shaders needed for the games can only be stored on the internal memory from what I’ve seen, and even having a few larger games installed has filled up the majority of my internal storage, to a point where I couldn’t download updates for flatpacs or run some games due to so LITTLE storage. I’m going to look into upgrading my drive because it became such a problem for me

I forgot this game was a thing, a shame they spent all that time on the game, just to need to rewrite it in another language

Until we can get the instance updated, yeah the jerboa app doesn’t really work. You could try another app, I’m using liftoff but that’s harder to install, you could Google “thunder Lemmy” and try that one, I haven’t tested it much but I’ve heard good things

They all look great, I personally like the brown one, something different than gray, but they’re all very cute and look very nice

As a Lemmy user, I believe the way to tell is when looking at the top, you should see the user@instance, and it is posted to “[email protected]”, this community is the home of the lemmy.world instance so it’s abit confusing, but say “[email protected]” is how it should show for Lemmy users

Edit: and speaking of the “first time I’ve seen a federated post”, I heard kbin.social turned off federation since it was getting overloaded with users, much less other instances. It’ll slowly get better

I think they meant like “overloaded”, like a hose spraying water, but the water being users from all around the fediverse

it may be worth putting a bug request on the activitypub github, because I agree that could become a huge problem, but its also alot of work to implement because most instances will need to update to the newest activitypub standard once they approve a new version of the standard.

I believe the names have to be unique on the instance-level, but not on the federal-level. So [email protected] and [email protected] are two different and valid usernames.
