Is Sen
Pihole my is choice too. It’s pretty good, but for some reason video ads still get through even off YouTube? Is it possible to block them?
Feddit.uk is also experiencing massive gains in users, I hope it’s real users, I’m not an admin but been keeping an eye on the stats.
Looping @[email protected] in case he see’s similar spam users
If you choose an instance that has nsfw disabled, you can’t see those communities on lemmynsfw anyway, even via the search functions.
Instances that do have nsfw enabled needs to be careful as if one of their users goes onto an other instances community with illegal nsfw stuff, it’s cached on their servers anyway just like your browser caches the images and videos from websites. I guess the cache can be deleted on a cron job but still something I would wanna stay away from if I was a Lemmy instance admin. Defederating would be what stops this.
Please check my profile, trying to help formulate a solution in my other posts
What a joke, one of the problems with reddit was over moderation and how things had to be so neatly organized with flairs etc.
On the basis of this information, to me de-federation is a good thing and shows how this could be better than reddit, over just banhammering users.
That’s what we are saying, the admins have the option to force email registration or not, sounds like Beehaw do force and now Beehaw are butthurt that other instances don’t force the same so have de-federated some large instances from them.
Yeah I know, still don’t want any spam though. My email could be sold to spammers.
I could have a specific email just for Lemmy but Reddit didn’t even require an email address so it’s I don’t see why I should with Lemmy
The admins of beehaw are delusional if they think providing personal email addresses to private instances is a good thing imv. Let them have their silo, unintended consequences will happen.
Also passwords are hashed but don’t re-use any password at all on Lemmy.
All instances are private actors and should not be trusted as default
Wouldn’t say it’s struggling, things will naturally fall in place. Doesnt need to be as centralised as reddit was
If I self hosted my own Lemmy on my home server, just for myself and I posted / uploaded images on it, when another user from another instance views my image, they cache it, would this mean later down the line if I deleted to free up server space, if someone else on that instance was to come across my image after deletion, because it was previously cached, the image would still show?
Wondering if rolling storage is possible eventually, where an archive of posts older than 2 years is performed and data deleted.
I am in the UK and that’s really useful to know. Thanks
