I have to agree - this is classic reddit. Spez obviously couldn't care less about namecalling.

  • The corp gets to use the CEO as a punching bag - which is pretty much his job description...

  • Redditors can feel good about upvoting a picture "sticking it to the man" while actually doing nothing - participating on a site that's still reaming them

  • Buying all the reddit awards for the post, GIVING THE COMPANY THEY'RE SUPPOSEDLY STICKING IT TO MORE MONEY. Bullshit like this pisses me off after finding out the Lemmy devs pretty much make less than minimum wage with donations

Same issue in my instance. Works with my account at lemmy.one. I don't think it's a whitelist thing. Some folks from esoteric-looking instances mentioned it worked for them

Interesting - then it's a problem with my thing's config. Thanks for the info - I'll check into it

As far as I know, lemmy instances can't sub to kbin magazines yet. I can't on my instance at least

I’ll take that bet. Too bad there’s no RemindMeBot. I would’ve set one for a year

I love how folks on this thread are so sure beehaw’s lying about that - despite the supposed amenable chat they and sh.itjust.works admins had about the situation. You guys are reeeaaally butthurt about the defed even though it wasn’t personal

I bought that on a friend's recommendation a few months ago, but I feel like I didn't give it a fair chance - only played about an hour or two. I'll give it another shot - thanks for the rec

...go on..? And...?

And because this instance had open registration, it quickly became one of the biggest instances. Trolls were using the open registration + federation to harass their community. Because there are a lack of mod tools and the fact they only have 4 mods, they couldn't keep up. In order to keep the community they wanted in tact, they decided to temporarily defederate until they're better equipped to handle it.

So... "fun" fact since I was following that shitshow at the time. When r/T_D got booted off reddit, they congregated to a site called thedonald[dot]win. That site later got renamed to patriots[dot]win. They were very much hyping up Jan6th in the days leading up to it and were absolutely looking forward to getting violent.

I don't think it's an exaggeration to say reddit's tolerance towards T_D was one of the root-causes towards what happened in J6th.

Damn I'm jealous. What I wouldn't give to get mindwiped to experience that again.

lemmy.world's pretty big, but I'm still getting other places. More spread would always be good though. Counts from my all feed -

  48 | lemmy.world
  14 | beehaw.org
  12 | sh.itjust.works
   4 | lemmy.dbzer0.com
   4 | lemmy.film

The hidden configs are boilerplate which are easily imported for any applicable service. A set-once set of files isn't what I would count towards being verbose. 90% of my services use the exact same format.

If a certain service is complicated and needs more config in nginx, it's going to be the same for caddy.
