This has been broken for us on the entire 0.9 series. It works with iceshrimp, go to social, etc. just not mastodon. I think it has something to do with authorized fetch and signatures. But I haven’t tried to track it down as the way lemmy formats posts from mastodon was super ugly anyway.

If you’re comfortable with using codeberg, yes, that’s the best place. Otherwise you can post in the comments of the original thread, complete the survey, or use github issues (if you must).

Sadly I don’t have an einc device. But if someone does, we’d be happy to accept feedback and include some images.

Your post showed up here just fine.

Yes and no. I left during the API drama and the blackout. First, moving communities wholesale just never works. Community archives don’t migrate, the affordances are different from site to site, etc. That’s why we (speaking for all the folks who run the ourblind.com set of communities) run a Reddit, a Discord, and of course the rblind.com Lemmy. The members and culture are wildly different between the three. And that’s fine. Though because of moderation issues, these days all posts to /r/blind need approval, and sometimes approval can take a day or more. However, Reddit’s decision to exempt the accessibility focused clients (Luna and Dystopia) that most blind folks use meant that a lot of blind people preferred to stay on Reddit, especially those who just consume content from other communities.

Second, creating a home for a new community, and doing it properly, takes a lot of time and effort! It’s taken us over a year to get the server infrastructure for rblind.com to a place I’m happy with. We had almost a week of downtime a while back, and until recently email delivery was extremely dodgy. While those things are fixed now, we’re still in process of creating a custom (more accessible) theme for our Lemmy. So even over a year later, I would still consider the rblind.com Lemmy to be in an alpha state. Signups are more than welcome, but we’re not actively working to push people over from elsewhere. Despite that, we’ve got a couple active daily users (mostly in off-site communities), folks make regular posts to our main community from Mastodon, and we’ve got a couple hundred registered users. It took the Reddit about five years to really take off, and even the Discord took a couple years before it started popping. So I’m happy for Lemmy to slowly build at its own pace, into whatever it decides to become, without trying to make it a clone of Reddit or something else, or forcing the existing communities to move over.

As well, of course, if Reddit does decide to cut off the accessible clients, or do something else that makes it completely screen reader inaccessible, our Lemmy means that no single service can hold our community hostage. Unlike when the API stuff happened, now we wouldn’t be in the position of racing to find a new home. We’ve got somewhere that’s mostly built and ready for people to move in when they need it.

Surprised nobody has mentioned my two favourites:

• Behind The Bastards: Robert Evans (formerly of Cracked fame) talks about the worst people in history for hours.
• Oh No Ross and Carrie: “When they make the claims we show up so you don’t have to.” Maybe start with the series on scientology, it’s some of the best work they’ve done.

Most of the other stuff I listen to is either industry specific or fandom/hobby specific.

Thanks! I didn’t realize there was an announcement on Lemmy, or I would have searched. Unfortunately screenshots are kind of the only way to share posts on Discord, because you can’t link someone to a Discord message on a server they’re not a member of, so I can’t blame you for a screenshot there. However, it is possible to add alt-text on images you post to Lemmy. :-)

Thanks! Perfect. Wish I could award…Lemmy Gold? LOL

Can someone transcribe this for those of us using screen readers? As a server in Canada, We’re also worried about the hosting risk of the piracy community and considering blocking it. I’d love to read the LW statement.
