Meta (lemmy.one)

lemmy.one was a great start for me into the fediverse, but the time has come to move on. It's become apparent to me that the (singular) admin just isn't there, and this instance has been dead for almost a week now due to the outgoing federation bug that needs a second upgrade to repair.

I know Jonah has a lot on his plate, and it's the holidays after all so I don't blame him... but this has happened a few times now. unless he's going to bring new people on to share the technical admin load and get us more prompt attention, I'm jumping to dbzer0 which has significantly more active technical administration and more communities that I'm interested in.

Peace out y'all!

Hello all, glad to be part of the community! I'm noticing an error when trying to upload a .jpeg avatar (108kb) to my profile.

Output from devtools:

Request error: error sending request for url (http://pictrs:8080/image): operation timed out

Error message in lower left toast popup:

SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

I did search to see if anyone else was having an issue but couldnt't find anything. Could be with the odd endpoint above, forgot to set an .env var?

Cheers Nath

For the past few days, I haven't been able to do a global community search. I go to 'Communities' -> click 'all' -> type something and hit 'search', but then I see a red error box popping up, and I end up seeing the Posts search results, not communities.

All posts on my front page are from 2-4 days ago and no new posts are showing up there. I'm sorting by hot. Sorting by new does show activity in my subscribed communities.

This is being posted all over the Fediverse, and it's worth a look ourselves. Beware federating with corporate entities like Meta, because it inevitably comes with a poison pill designed to disadvantage independent actors like us.

I made this post from lemmy.one to lemmy.ca: https://lemmy.one/post/368500?scrollToComments=true

It shows up here: https://lemmy.one/c/main@lemmy.ca/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1

It does not show up here: https://lemmy.ca/c/main/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1

Both instances federate with each other: https://lemmy.one/instances https://lemmy.ca/instances

I don't think that lemmy has a feature to require post approval, does it? Does this mean the post is not being federated? The mod log doesn't show that the post has been removed or that I've been blocked or anything.

The most obvious option is to donate. For those that are unable, are there other ways? I found a donation page for the mastadom instance but not for lemmy.

Paging u/Jonah (How do you tag users?)

Don't forget how new stories get in front of your eyeballs. Have an excellent day!

Title. Thank you

When I view the posts section of my own profile I only see a list of my subscribed communities, whereas clicking on someone else's shows their posts as expected. I'm seeing the same in the lemmy.one web UI as in the Jerboa client. I can also see the number of posts I've made, just not where they were!

Anyone else seeing the same behaviour?

Is there a list somewhere?

Thanks!

I'd like to join the !cpp@programming.dev community, but I can't find a way to do it:

• I can't find it in the community list of lemmy.one.
• This link gives a 404: https://lemmy.one/c/cpp@programming.dev

These links are valid though:

• https://lemmy.one/c/programming@programming.dev
• https://programming.dev/c/cpp

Is this normal?

Just joined Lemmy today. From what I understand, there are different Lemmy instances that host different communities. I supposed that to interact in a community hosted in a certain instance, I would need to create an account for that instance. Ended up creating 10 different accounts.

I just saw child pornography posted on Lemmy.one and found that there is no report button, nor any option in any menus I saw.

How is the defined path to reporting content that violates community/instance/legal rules?

Why are some of my subscriptions pending after 3 or 4 days? Has lemmy.ml somehow fallen out of favor?

I was under the impression that, due to the nature of ActivityPub, that Lemmy and Kbin are interoperable. I've been trying all day to sub to something a fedia.io. I can see it on the list of federated instances here but the search always comes up "no result".

I'm able to subscribe to other communities at other Lemmy instances (with some patience).

Is there a difference syntax I should be using?

Thanks

Why are they disallowed? And more importantly, why is this not transparent in the pinned post about Lemmy.one as a rule?

I was blindsided by this when I saw another user mention it, and while I enjoy Lemmy.one very much, I'm considering moving on because of this. I rarely, very rarely, down-vote, but at times it's handy to push down misinformation or adverse content.

It feels a bit too much like YouTube and the removal of the dislike button to me. What are other's thoughts?

Positive review of Lemmy on Jupiter broadcasting self hosted podcast

Doesn't really need to be a comprehensive federation list, but in the interest of admin transparency, I'd for sure like to know what instances we're defederating from, and the reasons for defederation (spam/brigading/extremism/illegal content/etc) so I can avoid them elsewhere. Maintaining a sticky post in this meta community with defederated instances would be fantastic- unless there's somewhere else I can see it.

I'm seeing a bit of drama rolling around regarding beehaw and lemmy.world, as well as the well known issues with lemmygrad, and I'd like to see this instance hopefully avoid a lot of that drama. And transparency of who/what/why we're blocking is key to that.

The summary for this community says there are many subscribers and dozens of posts, but my view from Lemmy.one shows nothing when I click it.

I've subscribed to it - but it didn't help. Am I missing something?

because a few days ago a helpful redditor told me everything I needed to know about joining Lemmy and the instances etc, and it is all gone.😡

Thankfully I made it over here anyway, but I wanted to copy and paste what he told me to share it with someone else who I want to migrate over here too.
