If I try to go to my user page, it just says “something went wrong”

I don’t have that option, and I’ve since realised that I can’t seem to access TestFlight at all now. It only asks for a code which I don’t have, and don’t remember how I obtained in Mlem’s case.

I literally cannot browse the web anymore without HoverZoom+

None of the Mod posts regarding the Blackout mentioned Lemmy as far as I‘m aware

Rumor has it they banned a lot of mods and communities for encouraging exactly that to their subscribers, so it was considered quite risky.

No they don’t? 🤔 I’m pretty sure they did once, but right now I am able to upload images with no account. Just dragging the file into the browser window works.

You’d be surprised how much critical infrastructure was implemented through trial and error and has just been left like that for years…

All the more reason that federation is necessary in modern social media.

Wait, how is the GDPR applicable here? I thought the GDPR was just about data protection…

As a mod I’ve been considering this, but with the amount of moderators and communities that have been banned for attempting to steer their users to alternatives, it’s simply not worth the risk. For now, I’ve just linked visitors to our Discord server instead, and people should be able to find the Lemmy and Raddle alternatives there if they wish to.

lmaoo 💀

My presumption was that with over 200 instances, maybe over 1000 in the near future, all the old data should be collectable in theory without loss. But you’re right, there’s no guarantee of this.

Oh lawd, I bet there will be a dozen instances for different political inclinations that all have each other blocked lmao

All the users and communities registered there will cease being able to connect to the rest of the network, but the data should still be cached on all the other servers.

The entire type and class system is basically taken from Haskell

Do as you please. It’s not like Reddit had any etiquette for crossposting, except for subreddit-specific rules.

That doesn’t necessarily invalidate the point they’re making. Other forms of analysis, strikingly, provide pretty much completely equivalent results.

Yeah, unfortunately the .ml in the TLD of the biggest Lemmy instance is not at all coincidental. On the other hand, it seems that a huge proportion of migrant Redditors have a preference for neutral servers with more Libertarian approaches to administration like Beehaw. At least Lemmy itself is FOSS.

I oppose dehumanization in all its forms, and despite being Ukrainian I have always been mindful of the humanity in this war.

With that said, the overwhelming majority of the “orc” comments that I’ve seen are directed not towards Russian civilians, but towards Russian combatants. Indeed, on that note Russians have been calling Ukrainians much worse things from day 1 on Russian social media, so if anyone is being dehumanized (and this is coming someone who reads Russian better than Ukrainian) I’d say it’s more so Ukrainians by the Russian side, but I digress.

Name calling aside, I think it’s incredibly dishonest to term the rooting and supporting for Ukraine as “jingoism” when that word describes what has been happening in Russian society for the past year far more appropriately. The American invasion of Iraq was bad and jingoist rhetoric was used to justify it, yes, but the exact same has been happening in Russia to a far more extreme degree during this war.

How can you ignore that while denouncing mere name-calling on social media and passive support in the war from the side of the West?

“Common narrative” in regards to the war in general or Bakhmut specifically? Because @FaceDeer@lemmy.ml sure as hell is right about the former…

How do you know?
