I think while the general communities have made it, a lot of niche communities failed to attract enough population to keep on generating more content. As an example, just search for the “Imaginary” series of landscape art communities on the Fediverse (eg. ImaginaryVistas). Many of them don’t have any recent posts or 1 post per days or weeks. That’s not enough to keep people invested. Even the largest digital art community is still mostly carried by 1 person.

It looks like it could fall over with any gust of wind and kill someone.

Should the instances that responded to you be refederrated? I’m pretty sure I saw some of them on lemmy.world’s block list. I think it would be sad for these small servers to not realize they are, in fact, not connected to the greater fediverse. On the other hand, if you’re an admin, and you don’t know what you’re doing to the point of not knowing your server was infected by hundreds of thousands of bots, maybe it’s too dangerous to refed.

I like how it looks exactly like reddit’s status page, especially considering they just released old.lemmy.world.

Oh good to know. I guess I only really caught reddit downtimes in the past.

I feel like it would be a bot purge or lemmy.world and several other instances being down from the hacking.

  1. Do the maneuver @Dadbod89 suggested.
  2. Try Flonase. Helps a lot but takes 1-2 weeks to start to work.
  3. See a doc if things persist.

Fagradalsfjall webcams: Live eruption from Iceland - Jorge Ginés (www.jorgegines.com)

“The volcanic eruption of the Fagradalsfjall volcano in the peninsula of Reykjanes (Iceland) has just started (10/7/2023), and we are lucky enough to have access to several webcams located in the area. Geologists like me (and generally anyone interested in our planet) from all over the world have been looking towards Iceland...

Just a week and a half ago, we were celebrating going from #2 to #1 most populous instance. And just 2 weeks before that, I had no idea what a lemmy was.

It’s like catching a nice surf wave.

Congrats to the winner of Week #1.

Will @Alchemy be saving all of these for an end of the year best of the best battle?

We really need the lemmy version of a multireddit - some way to group up your subscribed communities into categories. This way you can lasso together all the communities that cover the same topic but were created on different instances. That’s at the basic level.

At the advanced level, I hope someone can come up with an algorithm to merge duplicate posts/news sources/etc together so that it looks like one centralized post, even though it is decentralized on the backend.
