Ah. My instance reports the last activity from lemm.ee from 45mins ago… So that’d be June 30th, 00:14 Estonian time. And the main page forwards to join-lemmy.org now. Looks like the shutdown to me.

Well… it’s 10 before midnight here. I’m pretty sure a bit east from me it’s the 30th already. Not so much in the west. But I don’t know where lemm.ee was located.

It’s 30th of June. Lemm.ee is shutting down now.

This material would also fit !fuck_ai@lemmy.world

Fingers crossed, but we also know Lemmy might not be ready for that type of philosophy. I mean I still don’t know what exactly happened, but lemm.ee wasn’t successful in the end. And the underlying issues are still there. So the next admin team might face the same dynamics.

Wikipedia also offers some (limited) information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.zip_(top-level_domain)

I don’t think you need to worry about that too much. It’s a very uncommon character trait for constructive people. Alike people who run a successful instance. Most of them are nice. And the very few who aren’t, or are very agitated/argumentative will inevitably run into issues with other people as well… So there isn’t much to loose.

I think I’m fine. I’ll just search for some words in the title and that usually returns the correct post. And as long as it’s the Fediverse and not a closed forum with login or Discord, I can use Google, since it’s on the open internet. At least for Lemmy. Other than that it’s really hard. I don’t think any search engine can find me the article that I skimmed by Friday evening where I just vaguely remember on how it was about some Youtuber that I know, and I have no other information. I sometimes want to find stuff and it’s impossible. With any search engine/method. Sometimes my browser history helps me with that. Or homing in on a timeframe and a rough place and then scrolling through things. But a least for me it tends to be one of the two extremes. Either the rudimentary tools are fine. Or it’s really hard but a “better” search wouldn’t cut it either.

Nice project. And seems to be good quality. Now I know Kokoro, Dia, Orpheus and Chatterbox. Sady too few of these projects are multilingual.

I can’t speak for other people but I believe you’re fine. You contributed in the process of ironing out a bug / edge-case and that’s a very appreciated thing.

I believe the user interface mostly shows the display name next to posts, comments, etc. Doesn’t it? So the look would be alright in most places. And some people have characters like emojis in it. But it obviously needs to be a new/different username if it’s like this.

Lemmy.world has none of the comments.

And I believe other people set just their display name to unicode characters, and keep the account name ascii characters… I believe that’s how other people have emojis or arabic in the name. maybe Ænima could do the same…

I can’t remember the exact details, but I believe the attackers also targeted instances? So it’s not just that it happens with certain problematic instances, but everyone could have that uploaded to their media storage. And it can come from arbitrary places. I believe that adds to the problem. And it kind of requires to shut these things down for everyone. Or at least everyone except a few excellent hand-picked instances who cooperate closely, and the moderation tools actually work.

Yes, they’ve done an excellent job. I just wish they wouldn’t have to deal with these things.

(And I also think some of the child protection agencies should finally offer some open-source tool to scan content. Afaik there are still no image classifiers or hash tables I could use for my projects.)

Same, same. I can’t verify it and I probably don’t want to. But I had people assure to me it happened.

I think they would need to find a way to address the problem first. Reportedly, these images have been a huge problem here on Lemmy. Several times now.

Maybe send the follow-up mail to the moderation team anyway, including full username. And maybe a explanation that you were just questioning the unavailabily of the report, not intending to endorse the wannabe nazi party. So they get what this is about.

How many days did you wait for an answer? Sometimes people are just very impatient and this week thursday to sunday might have been days off for some German people.

This uses Cargo and Rust. Not npm and NodeJS… I mean go ahead and try, this is an entirely different programming language. Nothing in your comment will do anything. It is like if you were talking Portuguese to someone who only understands English. So I think you can skip the long non-working code examples. Focus on the idea insted, flesh it out and contribute that.

You’d need to change the idea a lot and make it more specific. This way it’s not a good idea. I guess a local instance chat could be useful for some specific things? But then this is a platform to discuss underneath posts in communities. So we can already talk to each other…

This is not NodeJS, so it won’t work that way. Also tracks users a different way. Also this is the Fediverse community and this doesn’t federate.

More often than not, internet fights have little to no direct effect on the real world. We all love drama. And fighting some rando on the internet genuinely feels like you stuck it to someone. That’s the thing with them. But we all need to ask ourselves if it did something for the people, or the cause we claim to support. If yes, it might be warranted, if no it was just mire selfish than helping.
