I updated the comments with that post: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/49724031/20307838

The original comment was to revoke that

As far as I can tell, literally the only thing the dude does is post about cool stuff and chat.

PJ himself admitted to be "a twat"

Do you really believe anyone's opinion on PJ would change with a new comment mentioning https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/49724031/20307838?

    I'm here, happy to provide receipts.

    I'll have to dig a bit deeper, but at the moment I have

    Now, there's another one I have in mind that is more explicit (from a mod of !196 itself that was saying that your ban kind of triggered the whole thing).

    I'll see if I can find it.

    Edit: actually, you are correct, I'll update the posted comment with this link instead https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/39039162

    [Meta] The community has spoken, we are now moving to !casualconversation@lemm.ee </c/casualconversation@lemm.ee> (lemmy.world)
     

    If you weren't aware about the discussion, have a look at the other pinned thread.

    Here is the link to the new community: !casualconversation@lemm.ee

    I already created a migration post there, feel free to comment under it.

    I will lock this community from tomorrow, sorry about the apple crusher post, I will redirect that person to the new community.

    New posts created on the LW community will be deleted from this moment, as they should be created on the lemm.ee community

    Feel free to reach out if you have any question

    PS: for the 19 people who wanted to keep the community here on LW, feel free to reach out to me if you want to reopen it in a few weeks, we can discuss it.

    Edit: I realized that communities can be locked and people can still comment on posts, so I locked it now.

    [Meta] Could we move the community to another instance to ease the load on Lemmy.world? (lemmy.world)
     

    Tl:dr: would you be okay to migrate the community to another instance for better performance? The change for you would just be one click to subscribe to the new community on the new instance.

    Hello everyone,

    As you may have noticed, there have recently been issues with instances located far geographically (i.e. Australia) to stay synced with LW since they switched to 0.19.3.

    What is the issue?

    Since Lemmy version 0.19, which LW updated to recently, management of requests between server has changed, potentially leading to some instances losing synchronization, especially if there is a lot of physical distance between them.

    Among the impacted instances:

    • reddthat.com
    • aussie.zone
    • lemmy.nz
    • lemdro.id

    Some other instances were affected in the past, such as lemmy.blahaj.zone (see their dedicated post https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/9871961)

    A graph can be seen here, the number represent activities (votes, comments, posts) that are queued to be send to the instances. The number was growing because LW can not process the activities fast enough

    More details can be found here:

    There was also another thread detailing the centralization of active communities on LW: https://lemmy.world/post/13059576

    Having most the active communities of Lemmy on one single instance can create this kind of scaling issues, which prevents some instances to stay synchronized and interact with the rest of the Fediverse. At the time of this post, Reddthat, but also Lemmy.nz, Lemdro.id and Aussie.zone are between 400.000 and 2 millions actions behind LW (https://phiresky.github.io/lemmy-federation-state/site?domain=lemmy.world).

    Please note that while there are a lot of actions that are pending from LW to some servers, most of the federation between servers still happens instantly. LW is in a kind of unique position due to how many active communities and members they host.

    The Lemmy code will probably be reworked to solve this issue in the future, but there is still actions we can take now to mitigate the issue.

    What can we do to help with this matter? Migrate!

    We discussed it within the moderation team, and we wanted to suggest you, our members, to move the community to Lemm.ee, as they are the second biggest instance, but are still able to process all actions under 1 minute on average:

    That would at least solve the federation issue for our community, and members from those instances would be able to interact with it. Long term fix would require a rework of the Lemmy codebase, but that's out of scope of our proposal.

    This is how we would proceed:

    • asking community for feedback (that's where we are now).
    • if the community agrees, go to the next steps
    • create another post to redirect people to the new community (probably locking the previous community temporarily to ensure that people would go to the new one) on the new instance
    • create a few posts on the new instances to ensure that the migration has been completed

    What would that change for you?

    If we indeed decide to migrate, you would just have to subscribe to the new community, and that would be it.

    Your choice

    Would you be okay with this? Feel free to share your feedback on the comments. For people who just want do give their feedback without having to comment, I will add two comments with potential opinions to choose from.

    We will keep the thread open for at least 5 days (so until next Wednesday), with a potential extension if needed.

    Thank you for reading everything, and see you in the comments.

    I am not going to lie, even if 99.99% of the people on Lemmy are nice, sometimes I feel like we also attract a unique kind of trolls (lemmy.world)
     

    Just wanted to rant a bit as I'm having seeing that happening a bit more and more recently, not only on lemmy.world but also on Lemmy as a whole.

    Makes it hard to keep you head cool sometimes, I think it's even harder because I legitimately cannot understand what they are trying to do by being disrespectful.

    I guess that comes with being a very niche platform for a very niche population.

    Have a good one, everyone.

    Unlabel a bot only used for scheduled daily posts to increase visibility? (lemmy.world)
     

    Hello everyone,

    I am one of the moderators of !casualconversation@lemmy.world. We use a bot relying on https://schedule.lemmings.world/ to create a post every day automatically.

    I know that some users block bots because they consider them annoying, be it repost posts or features bots such as tldr or piped. Having the bot labelled as such prevents the daily threads from being viewed by users who might be interested.

    I had that reasoning in the past, but had the bot banned for not complying with the instance guidelines.

    I thus open this thread to see what could be done to solve this issue. Could there be exceptions to the bot labelling guidelines in this kind of cases?
