Hi! I’m British, I like music (grime, garage, hip-hop, R&B, and more!). I like art, culture, history, politics, & doomscrolling memes.
Also a touch of programming :)
also on /u/Madbrad200@sh.itjust.works
Nah lemmy.ml is still federated. You can see it listed here https://lemmy.world/instances
It’s blocked from lemmy.world. I’d recommend using LASIM and migrating to another instance like https://lemm.ee/ (note: you will need to manually resubscribe to !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com on your new account, since LASIM won’t be able to see it).
That’s not a copy of the main piracy community, that’s another piracy community that’s hosted on lemmy.world
The community people are talking about is !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, which is no longer accessible via lemmy.world
It appears !piracy@lemmy.ml is also blocked.
Most of them seem to be moving to discuit, another centralised platform, Lol
ANY internet platform that proclaims itself as a guardian of free speech is either overun by racists, xenophobes and the like or, at the very least, holds a significant number of them. There’s a reason most 2000s internet platforms (e.g, Reddit) eventually dropped ‘Free Speech’ as a policy over time.
honestly reading this, it just sounds to me like he isn’t cut out for community management. It is stressful and hard sometimes, so I get it, but he’s going to kill his own site doing this. I did wonder about this before - it seemed like to me he regularly made changes based on feedback on a whim, and these changes were often rushed without much thinking. Needs to know when to pass the baton elsewhere and stick to development, but alas…
The last comments also speak to someone who’s probably hiding some contrarian views of his own.
Shame.
I’m really confused by this direction? The admin seemed… nice, and all of the users were “let’s all be friends and be postivive x!” type people. Not exactly the place for “free speech” dog wistle folks. He’s just going to alienate his entire userbase, I don’t understand the point.
I don’t care. They can figure it out or ask, lol.
Block the individual bots. You’ll get rid of them in one go.
You get Google app store credit for doing very short surveys. I’ve bought a few things with it
meh, it’s a bit shit if the original dev wants to make his own Lemmy app.
Obtainium has a setting just for issues like this.
Click on Infinity for Reddit in the app >click edit button bottom left > change Version Detection option to Use Release Date As Version
Worth noting it is not affiliated with the original dev. This guy forked it and took the name.
THey probably mean !shitposting@lemmygrad.ml or !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world
For 196, there’s !196@lemmy.world and !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone
The last two (shitpost@lemmy.world, blahaj) are both very active.
I included a list of animal communities in this post here (among other fun/casual communities). Some you didn’t mention:
fixed link
hexbear (a leftist instance) was defederated recently. lemmygrad.ml is “under discussion”.
lemmy.ml has too many general users thesedays imo, it would be very major to block it.
