How the beehaw defederation affects us

Reply in thread

On the bottom of every instance there is the hyper-link "instances" which shows a list of blocked instances and of linked instances. I don't know if it manually edited or if it is dynamic, but if it is the latter case then it appears, according to some testing I've done, to not update instantaneously.

Anyway, according to lemm.ee "instances" page we are still linked and I think we will remain so, since they do not seem so keen to create an extremely walled garden like beehaw. Meanwhile, we do appear on the very long "blocked instances" list from beehaw.

YSK that kbin.social is now federating, adding hundreds of communities and ~26k more users content

I tried joining some kbin magazines from here (E.G: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] and https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] ). It did work but I'm unable to see any post from those communities. Instead the one you linked ( https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] ) works perfectly (even for newest posts/comments). Is there any fix ? EDIT: To add more troubleshooting info, It doesn't say pending, it correctly says "joined" but still no posts.

How do identical communities work on Lemmy?

Reply in thread

No, the point of federation is that you can interact with other sites/servers from your own since the same protocol is shared. So from some-server.com they visited [email protected] and did their interaction. The same way you can go to the Music community at lemmy.ml ( https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] ) without leaving lemmy.world and without having to create a new account. Your comments and interaction will be seen without problems by users of lemmy.ml .

Lemmy.ml subscriptions pending?

While the server are at big load sometimes the subscrision went through but is incorrectly displayed as pending, in that case you can either ignore it or remove it and subscribe again. If the load is even higher sometimes it seems to not go through, but this case is rarer.

Uhh did beehaw just decide to say lights out?

The newest post from kbin I was able to find is this: https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration/t/33340/Reddit-Blackout-19-Comments-day-and-9-Posts-day-during-the-48h (3 minutes ago) and on lemmy.world I can see it with no problem ( https://lemmy.world/post/183440 ). Yesterday since synchronisation wasn't yet over (Now I think/hope it is) some smaller magazines weren't available on lemmy.world, but now everything should be visible.

Newest versions of AUTOMATIC1111 GUI have AMD-support built-in for Linux, and with my 6600xt it seems to work quite well, but I don't have anything else to compare it with (Batch size 4, LMS KARRAS 100 steps, --medvram finishes in 1 minute e 5 seconds). Are the performances good or sub-par for my gpu?

https://browse.feddit.de works only for Lemmy's instances and communities, so if you want something more precise than your instance's search bar you should go to https://kbin.social/magazines and then copypaste the link to your instance (in your case feedly.j-cloud.uk ) search bar if you want to subscribe to it. In all cases, Kbin is different form Lemmy if seen from its own site, since they are trying to do a more comprehensive social platform, while instead Lemmy is just trying to be a link aggregator (The same typology of Reddit and of other now defunct sites). So, to summarise up, from lemmy you can see all the contents of kbin (which is a different software) but the "experience" is different from the one you have on the kbin site and thus, functionally, when using a lemmy instances kbin can be treated as another lemmy instance, even if it isn't.

Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?

The official Android App (Jerboa) is nice but barely usable, at least it has a "big card" viewing mode that my instance browser view lacks (btw, is there some sort of desktop viewer (either Linux or browser based) that is better?).

The absence of working intra-instances is painful and one of the major downside of Lemmy.

Everything else is jolly good, and if more people would join it would be better since a lot of topics have barely no communities ones that exist are severely underpopulated.

Overall, Lemmy shows a lot of potential and I will try to use it but it isn't really ready for daily-driving yet.
