Aussie.zone is, and a few other instances regularly have issues. The issues have been here for months, are not going to be fixed any time soon as the latest Lemmy version still has issues like the pictures one: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5196

As far as hosting it on a different instance, this is just kinda a playful experiment. If it goes well anyone can copy the list and put it a version of it on their server.

If we were to open an index community on let’s say lemmy.zip, known for their transparency and reactive management (https://lemmy.world/post/22643868), would you consider closing [email protected] and redirect to the new lemmy.zip community?

When two similar communities coexist, the LW version always dominates due to LW size, so the non-LW version is always struggling, and people don’t know where to post.

Hey, you are the fsck person, hello!

There is a spoiler policy in place, threads allowing them have to indicate it in the title

Indeed ha ha

Thanks!

Basically: yes the dropdown menu appears, just as for usernames, but if you choose the item from the dropdown that you see, the Lemmy UI will do the wrong thing. My first link was made using the dropdown, while my second ignored the dropdown and just used the exclamation mark. Notice how my first link takes you to an entirely different instance? But the second link goes to the version of that community while keeping you on your same instance.

Jumping in, but I’m very curious about this. I’ve never seen the dropdown menu not create “[email protected]” links.

I am now taking my discussion.online alt to see, and with [email protected], created from the dropdown, the link works as expected.

How do you manage to get harcoded links from the dropdown?

I skimmed through it, it's actually a decent article.

No of course not but I subscribe to the original Reddiquette philosophy. Downvotes arne’t for disagreement. They were originally a form of user-moderation to stop spam. Unfortunately about a decade ago after the Digg exodus the users of Reddit forgot that original usage and so you’d end up being downvoted and not knowing why. It doesn’t foster debate or discussion. It’s a cheap way to snipe someone down without being responsible or engaging them.

Very true, and that's why I'm more and more inclined to use an instance without downvotes. With the report button available, downvotes just seem like a shortcut for hivemind.

Thank you for your insight. I feel like AP cares more about the community, while nostr is about the individual.

Different kind of people will choose different approaches

I agree. I could see Beehaw survive longer than most other Lemmy instances, their community feeling is much stronger.

Lemmy's code isn't that easy to get into, otherwise there would be much more contributors to it.

The third biggest contributor after the two main devs has 59 commits.

Nice tutorial

Hello guys, just wanted to chime in and say that it's good to see you three explain things in a calm manner in this thread. Nice to see you around.

Good luck with this!

Interestingly enough, I always thought that Blahaj had a !trans community as they are a queer instance at their core, but it seems it wasn't the case.

Your instance is still in 18.5

True, forgot about that (luckily I woke up after it happened)

will need more deep searches.

To be fair, it doesn't take that much to create an account on one instance and then see if it works for you. I must have more than ten alts on several platforms

Sad to hear. I don't read news community, that's why I didn't see it

Any example of badly moderated communities? Asking because I didn't notice anything special.
