Muntedcrocodile: “I believe in the right to spread hatred as long as it’s not calling for violence.”

Lemmy: “Um, okay. Let’s give that a try. We hate hateful right wing views, and call people with those views total assholes.”

muntedcrocodile: “Wait, not like that! You should tolerate us so there’s a diversity of views!”

Ironic.

This is not a community to troubleshoot self hosting. Try making a post in !selfhosted@lemmy.world instead.

Lemmy allows a user to export their subscriptions, blocks, and saved posts /comments in a JSON file from their account settings page.

That file can then be imported into a new account on any other Lemmy (and even Piefed) instance.

You could use an ebike with a trailer attached.

After checking just now, it appears that it does! :D

Lemmy.world is already the largest instance, recommending it to more people seems like it’d just speedrun burnout like what happened to lemm.ee, not to mention centralization around .world goes against the philosophy of the fediverse.

That’s a good point. On a similar note, Programming.dev had pretty severe database breakage that took quite some time to fix, but thankfully both instances seem to be healthy and working well nowadays. :)

For lemm.ee users who will be migrating to new instances: You can export your subscriptions and blocks to import them to your new instance! You can export that info in your profile settings panel, and import it from the same page on your new instance.

General instances:

Sopuli.xyz is a great medium sized general purpose instance. Good admins that update to the latest Lemmy release consistently.

Lemmy.cafe could be another option if you’d prefer a smaller general purpose instance (to help spread the load and prevent the burnout that lemm.ee experienced) that’s also run by a solid admin.

Themed instances:

Retrolemmy.com - a cool place for retro tech/game enthusiasts

Literature.cafe - For book lovers and readers!

lemmy.dbzer0.com - fantastic instance for Anarchists and those who like to go Yarr! 🏴‍☠️

Programming.dev - For techies interested in programming and linux

Mander.xyz - Focused on Science and Nature

Lemmy.zip - PC Gaming and Tech focused

You can find more over at Lemmyverse.net

Piefed:

If you’re willing to try an entirely new way to interact with Lemmy and the threadiverse, consider giving Piefed.social a try, a completely independent project from Lemmy. It’s still a little behind in some ways, but also has a bunch of features that lemmy doesn’t. If you’re a community mod looking to migrate, Piefed apparently makes it particularly easy!

Also @1024_Kibibytes@lemm.ee

There’s definitely something going on. Whenever I add a Lemmy instance URL that isn’t obfuscated somehow, like replacing the periods with commas or (dot), then my comment gets no likes or responses, whereas a very similar comment in the same thread without a link does.

It seems to down rank it in the algorithim, if not outright shadow remove them.

There’s some good channels on TILVids and Kolektiva.media, and if you’re looking for something specific, Sepiasearch is able to search across all peertube instances.

Consolidation sometimes happens, but sometimes doesn’t for certain reasons, such as a community being abandoned, or different visions for a similar topic.

Personally I would recommend picking the most popular community or the one that seems to appeal to you the most, and only posting in that one, while staying subscribed to the others (if they are active) to keep abreast of that content and be able to participate in the comments if you desire.

They were likely posting about the BuyFromEU Lemmy community.

Reminder that Piefed’s patreon is only at $13 a month. If you have the means, consider donating to the project to say thanks for all of the work and effort being put into it :)

Anarchy in this case is not implying random chaos, but Anarchist political theory. Or in practical terms, how Catalonia organized during the Spanish Civil War.

It’s a bug repellent, and the bugs are fascists, so Anarchy is fascist repellent.

Please consider becoming organized in your local communities, they will be essential in the coming months, and it is the most powerful act we can do to resist.

This feature has been available to all kbin/Mbin users since the beginning, btw.

It means the ratio of friends who are of the opposite gender.

So areas which are more blue mean men have more women friends than they do men, and or women have more men friends than they do women friends.

The area that are red or orange show the opposite trend, where people make friends with mostly the same gender as themselves.
