Funnily enough piefed.social does not seem to block .ml

Usually once whenever I’m on it I’ll pull up a terminal and type “yay”

I mean, there’s more greenery, there’s an island that makes crossing easier. It looks way less depressing. The speed of cars is likely to be way lower.

Is it amazing? No. But it is better.

Try it. Please, I beg you.

Firstly you most likely just cannot. Device support is very narrow.

But I have a phone I got secondhand just to play with it. I want to love it, but it feels dated. The gestures make using a lot of stuff hard. But the biggest thing is that in my country I can’t even make calls due to no VoLTE support. Kinda kills even using it daily even as an experiment.

I did submit a pull request to add Colemak keyboard layout support to the keyboard though, which was accepted. So technically I’m a contributor :)

Cloudflare. They sell and renew at cost ($12 iirc)

I hear Porkbun does/did as well but I haven’t looked in a long time.

Right I remember. That whole drama is what got him banned from Hexbear.

You have to have at least one user on your instance subscribe to a community before your instance starts getting updates.

You should look into these accusations first to have a fully formed decision. Sentiment on Lemmy is super pro LGBTQ+.

Man Piefed is cool but their evangelists really try and sow discord and scare away newcomers.

Hell yeah new Lemmy instance!

Approvals might be queued when the admins are sleeping. sry

Lol I relate to that one.

No problem, tried Gentoo like once over 5 years ago. It was cool and fun but not a daily driver for me.

That’s kind of the point of Gentoo. Though it’s not as hard as it sounds, the package manager (emerge) pretty much does it for you. It just might take a while.

Huh?

I suppose you’re talking about .ml but that’s only 1 of 4.

Uh, out of the top 10 instances by monthly active users (https://fedidb.com/servers) it looks like 5 federate with them and 5 don’t.

Edit: I was mistaken, it was 4 do and 6 don’t. But still, clearly not universal and tons of people are able to coexist just fine with them.

Clearly it’s polarizing. Clearly anyone spinning up a new instance certainly would know what site of that fence they fall on.

I think the biggest thing is just including one of the oldest and most active instances in there. Hexbear (or Lemmygrad) is not everyone’s cup of tea but a default block, or even to lump them in with an instance like the one you mentioned is kinda crazy. Some of the other bigger instances out there federate with one or both just fine.

That’s terrible and immediately makes me question the trustworthiness and motivations of a dev team that decides to block instances by default.

I’m not saying they’re not trustworthy but that just feels icky.

If you’ve gotten to the point of something as advanced as spinning up your own instance of a federated software you probably know who you want to federate with.

It would not crash an instance. What are you talking about…

Ah, someone who wasn’t around for the reddit exodus to Lemmy.
