Lol on a serious note though, if it takes too much of your time, you might want to consider some additional activities for spending your time :) your mental health is much more important than Lemmy ^
For me it’s because all these companies hate Linux for some reason. I have Amazon prime, Hulu, HBO max, and Apple TV, but they would only show sd if I’m on Linux.
Probably because they tie it to their own personal self-image or self-worth. Of course, in the grand scheme of things, downvotes are virtual and don’t mean a thing in the real world.
But people give it value, therefore it does have meaning in the real world. The act generates a feeling in someone, and it says “I don’t like what you just said.” People want to be liked.
There are also free ones, BUT they’re a lot harder to get into, and a lot of times don’t have as much content or aren’t managed as well. They do exist if you’re patient though, I managed to get into a pretty good one a while back.
I kinda think it may be on the isp then, maybe a v6 routing issue? You could work around with an ipv4 tunnel, then route ipv6 through it. If that’s possible, I’ve never done it haha.
Yeah, ISP-related issue is all I can think of. I can connect to the server over v4 no problem, but the broken v6 connectivity to this particular endpoint is strange and nothing I’ve seen before…
Are the other networks you’ve tried from the same or different?
I’d start with traceroute and see how far your IPv6 traffic gets before it fails. It could very well be some peering or routing issue between some of the ISPs in between you and wherever that IPv6 address lives. If this ends up identifying where the traffic dies, a lot of the tier 1 ISPs have BGP looking glass servers so you can get an idea of what they know about that subnet.
I’ve tried from networks outside my home and I can access the server from there. Looking at a traceroute, I stop getting anything somewhere between my ISP and the datacenter the server is in.
I’m not familiar with the term unsers. However, there is a point for multiple communities. Lemmy is meant to be decentralized with no central authority, leading to multiple communities that are the same (or with similar topics) that have different rules and moderators.
As an example, the first one is based on posting AI generated images with no specific platform while the second one is to share tips, questions, and images created on Midjourney only. This shows the differences, but even if the topics were entirely the same, it would be important for choice and decentralization
Pretty funny that coming from a Norwegian because they still have the flag out many places in my opinion :)
It’s actually one of the things that stuck out the most after I had moved there.
Especially at “hytter” (vacation cabins) I think the majority has a flag out.
Same for national day, you’ll see a bunch of flags.
Compare that to Belgium, where I’m from. Even on national day it’s a rare sight to see a flag.
And it’s only very fanatic people that will actually wave it around on the street.
The moment you’ll see most flags out is probably during the world cup.
Not really. Vacation cabins are for vacation with Norwegians not acting like Norwegians, i.e. socializing with neighbors and having the flag up indicating their precense. More often than not, the flag is used as a celebration of either a national holiday or the birthday of someone in the household. Cabin, hiking and boat culture are weird albeit common outliers of Norwegian culture.
This is the consequence of the fed raising interest rates and companies finding it much harder to find money to pay salaries and operating costs. So companies have to actually seek profit or go bust and CEOs and board of directors are getting desperate and showing how little they understand what makes their products great.
oh they’re betting on users/consumers making decisions en masse ; they just want to be able to instruct us what decisions to make and for us to follow through.
That’s what Facebook has been able to do, sometimes (see: targeted advertising that got #45 elected in the US.)
It doesn’t always work (see: numerous articles trying to cajole people to Return To Office work rather than Work From Home, to prop-up the value of office buildings.)
Reddit, Twitter, etc, have been running at a loss for ages, burning through vulture capitalist money to build up a solid userbase. Now they need to start turning a reliable profit, which means enshittification of the user experience to make more money per user.
And the worst bit it even happens to non free platforms.
Like Spotify pushing a TikTok style interface, and ramming my home screen full of things I don’t care about. Like, you’ve known me for a decade you should know I’m not into drake and podcasts by conservative men.
Sounds pretty fake, she can directly call anyone who reports to her as she manages them, they have the admin privilege to reset passwords for her. I also work in IT.
This kind of slow degredation of services is quite normal, however, this time around the wider use of these degrading platforms is hitting harder. Even 5 years ago, most communities had an IRC rather than a discord, and most ran a forum, or a community forum, with other info being on a wiki.
These days a lot of content that used to sit on a forum now sits on twitter, or on reddit. Discord is the new IRC, and so on. These separate services were a lot less convenient, but more resilient.
Odds are, we might see similar smaller communities pop up again as things get worse in the larger ones. Folks are pinched for cash at the moment, and so free services like neocities might see a boom as fandoms abandon larger sites (again).
