FxtrtTngoWhisky , to fediverse in 10 days after 3rd party reddit app shutdown, Lemmy's top 10 instances combine for a thriving userbase of 234,000

In looking for a replacement for Reddit, I came across this. I’m hopefully optimistic. The last straw for me in a long list of issues that I have with Reddit came yesterday. Lemmy has a long way to go, but I’m moving away from Reddit and will become active here.

What happened yesterday?

FxtrtTngoWhisky , (edited )

Perma banned from r/Libertarian and a 3 day site suspension for saying “The cop would have had to shoot me too after that. Gun or no gun, I would have beat him within an inch of his life until I succumb to my wounds. My dogs are part of my family.” In response to a posted video of an Ohio LEO shooting and killing a Golden Retriever in front of her owner, while smiling and wagging its tail. Absolutely horrific watch.

ETA: I still can’t get the images from this video out of my head. If you love animals, do not watch it, it will only anger you and upset you for days. I meant what I said and to be banned by a Libertarian sub for saying it was a kick in the balls.

Perma banned from r/Libertarian

Oh, the irony

FxtrtTngoWhisky ,

And that’s why it was the nail in the coffin.

“I dunno this seems pretty intense for – wait, protecting your family? Your pets?! They did what to that dog?! Nevermind then, this isn’t intense enough.”

My mental processing of your comment as I read more and more

FxtrtTngoWhisky ,

Yeah, it does seem intense without context. What’s worse is that you’re just reading a description, whereas they (the mods) saw the video.

assassin_aragorn ,

It makes total sense to me after reading the whole comment. I’d have the same reaction

My boy has that constant worried look, too. It’s tough being a dog, I guess.

Rearsays , to fediverse in 12 years ago. Wonder what Lemmy will look like in 12 years?

Google did write golang and Google likes killing everything it touches Lemmy is written in go…

Is it now? Github says it’s Rust at 80%. And a layer of rust is a good protection again further rust 😃

github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy

ProfezzorDarke ,

This is not how rust works, rust is blooming and eating ever deeper. Green Copper-Patina on the other hand is a protective layer.

OwenEverbinde ,
@OwenEverbinde@reddthat.com avatar

I don’t think anyone is going to create a coding language called Green Copper Patina.

ProfezzorDarke ,

Thinking about it that way, that would actually be a good name, but I bet it would be a favourite in the Linux crowd.

samae ,
@samae@lemmy.menf.in avatar

I had “weathering steel” in mind, butt you’re right, even in this case, rust still eats at it, just slower.

Rearsays ,

Honestly I am just going off of my preconceptions on this golang presumption. I tend to bet often that a rust or go based product is going to win out in most cases.

FriendOfFalcons ,

Lemmy is written in Rust. I currently don't know if there is fediverse server software written in Go tbh

Rearsays ,

It was a joke and a jab at Google. But how does rust get hacked. That’s unnerving

ki77erb , to mildlyinteresting in An Artist in Lyon Known as “the Pavement Surgeon” Repairs the City’s Sidewalks using Colorful Mosaics

There is probably not an easy way to do that on the spot. Do you think the artist traces out the dimensions and then makes the piece at home and brings it back?

Lenins2ndCat ,
@Lenins2ndCat@lemmy.world avatar

No they just pour in the mortar and then put the pieces in. The ones that do pictures like a cat or a bird or something premake the picture part and then fill in the pattern surrounding the picture afterwards. This particular french artist does it anonymously in the middle of the night.

Here in the UK people spray paint giant dicks on the floor around the potholes. A slightly alternative way of annoying the council into taking action.

Lemmy.world is gone forever for me. 😂 If I sign in, it tells me my log in is wrong. Then I sign on the web, it tells me to enter the 2FA code, I have never set up 2FA. Signed up with another email, kept saying captcha was wrong, then just failed and kept saying user already exists. Tried to log in with the new email that it told me it already existed, then it tells me wrong log in. I just gave up

Edit: this has been very bizarre. Resetting the password sometimes works on the mobile browser only, but not on the desktop. Then now it just never works anymore. I already reset the password once and used it to log in, but on apps it gives an “invalid token” error, on the browser it asks me to enter my 2FA code, but I’ve never set that. When I try to reset the password again, nothing happens [email protected] would you be able to take a look at this for me, please? I don’t know if that’s the right way to mention someone. /u/Ruud

TechnoBabble ,

You need to clear your cookies for Lemmy.world

T156 , (edited )

CTRL-SHIFT-R if you’re not wanting to clear all your cookies (it clears the browser cache and reloads).

It took a little bit, and a few tries, but it worked for me.

donut4ever ,

It works fine on the browser now after resetting the password, but not on any of the apps period. Tried everything.

T156 ,

On apps, you generally need to log out and back in again, which seemed to work for me.

Don’t trust the app saying that you’re already logged out, try removing the account (if you can), and logging back in again.

donut4ever ,

When you do a clear cache and data on the app, it wipes the app clean and puts it in a “just installed from the apps store” state. Still didn’t work. Not sure what to do. I’ve already signed up for another instance.

donut4ever ,

I already did that. Didn’t work

NigerianPrince ,
@NigerianPrince@lemmy.world avatar

If you reset your password then you can log in

donut4ever ,

Nope. That didn’t work on any app. It only worked on the web browser. I did clear the cache and data on those apps, still didn’t work. That include Jerboa

NigerianPrince ,
@NigerianPrince@lemmy.world avatar

Yes it works only on web browser then you can log in and dissable 2FA

donut4ever ,

Not anymore :(

donut4ever ,

Wait, it worked. Wow, took two days. Lol

Why not arch?

Can break very easily always update and update break and also not noob friendly

crunchpaste ,
@crunchpaste@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

I’ve had more breaking updates in Ubuntu LTS releases than arch based ones. Especially when at some point you always find yourself forced to use PPAs.

To me, being “noob unfriendly” is disabling flatpak to push a (semi) proprietary broken mess.

Does anyone know where I can find that bot that takes all my subs for me, an allows me to import them into a new account? I really dig reddthat, however there have been a few scares already, and I’d love to have a core backup so if I do move around it’s easily set up.

cantevencode ,

I used sub.rehab to import my reddit subs. Didn’t do all of them but it’s good enough so far

Seconding this. I saw it in a comment but was like nah I’ll never need that 😂 3 hours later I made a second account and was like fuck where that thing go 😂
