I’m really confused by the chart on the site https://blackout.photon-reddit.com/ I understand the dip annotated with the red arrow, but I do not understand the rebound annotated with the green arrow… With that many sites down, it should not be possible to rebound to normal levels…

I am just getting an infinite spinner when trying to post to !nuggets@lemmy.world Just trying to post something here to see if I can do anything…

edit: just saw the 2000 character limit. will adjust my post…

edit2: i was way under 2000 characters. Finally after trying everything else, I just didnt select the language “english” and it went through (slowly) without issue.

There is a dark mode. Just go to your username in the top right, choose settings, then halfway down is “theme”. I chose “darkly” and it looks good to me.

Edit: And I just realized I’m posting on not my main server. Beehaw may be different.

And I have a question… in spez’s letter shown on macrumors, he references “snoos”. I assume the “snoo” in this sub is a reference to that, but I’m pretty sure spez is not talking about the acronym reference in the side bar. What does it mean?

I like this idea. I need to think on it some more though.

I’m not sure what you are doing exactly, but I think it is easier than that. I have just been signed in on lemmy.world, and when I browse all communities to look at other sites communities I can interact. I have been able to comment and post in communities on other sites that I am subscribed to.

I just rode my bike on the north side of the stadium because the south had construction and they have like 40 portapotties and an entrance tent structure. I assume it is related to this, but I do not know why.

One issue I have is that I believe that !lemmyworld is the only default subscribed community when a new user signs up. If the intent of this community is to just talk about the instance, maybe it should not be default subscribed, or maybe it should not be the only default subscribed community. Can the initial default subscribed communities be setup to guide a new user?

I have been thinking about this more and I’m thinking that it is almost necessary. Right now lemmy.world is operated by dude in Germany. While this benevolent dude is letting us all pile in here for free could change on a whim or a personal circumstance change of that dude.

A Colorado based instance would be a great landing pad for many, and a great insurance policy for the rest of us. If another instance goes away suddenly, we would have a place to fall back to and rebuild.

I’m currently trying to go at this fediverse operation full steam. I have 3 mastodon accounts (because I didn’t understand it at first, and could only just recently get a mastodon.social account). I also have pixelfed account and obviously this lemmy.world account. For me it is not terribly difficult to manage several accounts, and the apps clearly are ready/expecting several accounts.

I think that a link to https://matrix.org/ would be a lot more appropriate in the settings than the link to element.io. I see no way for me to just “join” on element.io, but at least matrix.org explains what it is.
