Was using Lemmy.ca as my home instance for a while, now it’s gone. Just wondering what happened or where I can find out.

I definitely wasn't inspired by the post by that guy interested in selling their kidney /s

It started off with an employee sending an email to a distribution list called “Bedlam DL3” asking to be taken off the list. With 13,000 recipients and everyone replying all with, “Me too!” and other messages, it was estimated that over 15 million messages were sent through the system in an hour. This crashed the MTA...

I'm getting an error logging into Android app Jerboa saying that the server version is too low. Is there something I need to do on my end for this? Please don't tell me we're going to need to check EPS conduits one by one.

Now, I am hoping I am not the only one in this community who has realized that privacy should be one of the top considerations when choosing what software to use on any device....

I’m just curious for the new or existing people? Lemmy.ml has taken a hard turn to the right since the reddit exodus. There’s been a lot of pro-imperialist propaganda being posted on world news, and a lot less diversity of opinion. It feels more neoliberal and neo-con to me....

Whenever I wipe my PC, I use tar to make an archive of the whole system. This works, but having to decompress the whole archive to pull files out is very annoying. Is there another archive format that:...

Landfills have been around for a long time now, and some of them get quite large. I know seagulls are changing their habits and living off landfills, but are there any other interesting ecosystems forming around them? Maybe some new microorganisms we haven’t seen before?

I’ve been doing small hosting off and on for a while. Mainly for accessing files at home and the occasional Minecraft server. Not smart, as I’ve never used a specialized router. I used to use ddwrt, but now it’s impossible to flash most consumer grade routers....

I’ll start: for Germany, I’d go for Die Ärzte. A rock/pop/punk band from the 80s which is still active today. One of my all-time favorites because I grew up with them :)...

Anyone here got any recommendations for paid cloud storage options? Given where we are I’m looking for piracy friendly options.

It reminds me how Imgur is often discussing images that were uploaded for Reddit and OP will never know about all the comments.

Mine is “palimpsest”. I first encountered this word while reading The Secret History by Donna Tartt....

I come from Reddit where I could see all of the posts I’ve upvoted on a page in my profile. Now I’m trying out Jerboa for Lemmy, but so far I haven’t been able to find a way to see all of the posts I’ve upvoted....

Not only the obvious “AITA for leaving my mafia boss husband after he murdered my family” deleted AmITheAngel crossposted posts that everybody knows it’s fake, but also, some viral post that everybody believed to be true and they never called it out or realized it too late after some ridiculous update.

I’m part of a small team that collaborates on projects. There’s up to 50 projects in the queue or in progress at a time, all projects are very similar to one another....

See the comments for sources and prompts used. The information below is “as is” and may contain inaccuracies. For me, it was just a fun experiment to see to what extent chatbots can help us with choosing a smartphone....

Hi there, I want to share some thoughts and want to hear your opinions on it....

I’m only getting an average of 9.21 Mbps from my Synology NAS to my remote Mac device. My NAS is connected to LAN with an internet speed of ±300Mbps. I don’t expect 300Mbps through Tailscale, but a 80-100Mbps would suffice....

This statement is false

I am an avid retro gaming fan. I mostly play JRPG games like Final Fantasy or Chrono Trigger but recently I’ve had very little time to enjoy big, complicated games. I am looking for recommendations for retro games that can be played over a longer peroid of time, but don’t require a big time investment (re-) learning the...
