I've noticed that federation here can be unstable lately - sometimes my comments will federate, and sometimes it won't.

An example of a comment I recently made that has not federated:

An example of a comment I recently made that has federated:

Might want to check the logs in case something's up. I don't think it's to do with the backend or whichever version it's using.

As you have probably noticed we took a pretty hands off approach to moderating this instance. If something is straight up malicious we will remove it, if not we will let the moderators of the respective communities to deal with it. We believe everyone should have the right to their own opinions, even if we don't necessarily agree with them and based on that we have not defederated from any other instance, till now.

Yesterday I came across what I would very much consider borderline, if not just straight up CP communities that someone on this server subscribed to. There was not just one single community, there were several on a singular instance. I told Sören about it and the instance has now been defederated and the communities purged. Hopefully there shouldn't be any leftovers of it.

I don't imagine anyone having an issue with us doing that, but we just wanted to let you know for fully transparency. We like for people to have access to everything, but some things are just too much (and rightfully illegal).

Hello everyone,

Following that thread: https://iusearchlinux.fyi/post/515890, is it still the case?

I tried commenting in this post : https://lemmy.world/post/2949072

Is it just me? My comments don't seem to appear on other instances. I've tried checking using my older accounts (subbed to the same communities and instances) and none of my comments are appearing. Also tried on multiple apps. The issue started just a few days ago, iirc.

I was thinking I was blocked/banned, but this happens on multiple instances. What did I do. 😭

as stated in the title, how long after subscribing to a community (when i'm the first one on the instance to do so) does it take to be able to see all upvotes and comments? i subbed to a few and it says all posts have 1 upvote and 0 comments.

It has been a little bit since my last post. I generally post when I am bored at work and the past 2 weeks were busy.

Today for a change I am curious about your hardware. Do have a laptop, desktop, both? One, 2, more? Why so many if you got more than 1? What hardware is it in it? Anything you would like to upgrade/change for your use case? Ever ran into any support issues with them? Any Steamdecks or funky hardware around?

Still figuring out how cross-posting works, please forgive me if I bork it up.

!free_nyp_music@iusearchlinux.fyi

For context, the MusicBrainz community has a thread for music downloads that are legally free, including name-your-price that's common on Bandcamp. I thought it'd be an interesting community that'd work here and across Lemmy. This sorta thing helped me discover new music I wouldn't have heard otherwise.

I'm posting some free/NYP releases I know of right now, but if you know of any music that fits the bill, do post it there! I'm going to give it time before I post it to New Communities on lemmy.world.

Modlog (iusearchlinux.fyi)
 
 

Saw a post about a user saying he enjoys reading the modlogs for some reason. So I went ahead and checked it out which got me thinking...

Have we deleted/censored anything in this instance yet? Have we banned anyone yet?

Anyone willing to take one for the team/instance?

(The last line was a joke. Don't ban me plis.)

At first I thought it might be that XSS vulnerability, and someone used it to force people into some communities. But then I noticed all the subs are on this instance. Maybe it is a local database error.

The subs I definitely didn’t ask for are: Teardrop…trailers, Hardstyle, Geohints, geo games, and Seventeen (lol).

Been using Apple Music lately since the experience is better than Spotify in some places. Searched the community browsers, couldn't find anything, so I decided to start one here.

Is it odd that an Apple Music community is being hosted on a Linux-centric instance? Maybe. But hey, Android counts as Linux, right? :^)

Soo.. Apologies if this is in the wrong place. Still new and unfamiliar to Lemmy. 😊 I could not find a specific vm community, so chat is hopefully ok? Posting this with Jerboa on iusearchlinux.fyi (hopefully?)

I have an issue with booting a windows vm from a physical drive and I hope this community might be able to help.

I run arch on my desktop where I have 2 nvme drives. One with Linux and the other with win10. This us the first time I am using systemd-boot for dual boot setup. I normally use grub but this I went with systemd. Possibly a mistake...

I have used these drives and the win10 install with several Linux installs over the years on this motherboard. Both as a dual boot, but also for vfio virtual machine. This works like a charm. But not this time... Dual boot works great, but the vm boot is not working atm.

I normally pass the entire windows drive to qemu, pass the spare Nvidia card and if we go. Usually controlled with looking-glass. It's sweet and work like a charm.

But for some reason I cannot boot the windows drive like this anymore. I suspect systemd-boot does something but I am not familiar enough to tell for sure.

Anyone with a similar setup with a success story to share? Is this possible with systemd? Or is my best bet to go back to grub?

Cheers all!

Yesterday I turned on 2FA but the link didn't come up after I saved. So I unchecked 2FA and saved again. Today I deleted my browser history after hacking but I can't log in now. It wants me to enter 2FA Token.

We also removed all custom emojis :( Sorry guys for making you all log in again. As far as I can tell no admin was affected by the hack. Still some users could be compromised. This is why we regenerated the JWT secret so all sessions are invalidated. Also we try to avoid the web client for now.

Are we impacted?

Bug on this instance (iusearchlinux.fyi)
 
 

There seems to be a bug when viewing this instance:

(Heh, it's at least way better than accessing lemmy.world right now...)

Basically the title.

Here's a quick background, though (because I have nothing better to do today). Suffered a failed EOS update on my laptop and it refused to boot. Rather than fix it, I decided to do something I've been thinking about for a while now: I installed NixOS (I still use Arch on my VM, btw).

Problem is it's been a bit long since I last set up my laptop I can't remember everything I did on it. Lol.

So what do you guys install after changing distros? What are your must-have applications (for any distro)? I'm already running zen kernel, got bitwarden up and running, hardened firefox and installed ungoogled chromium. Seems there's no standalone pihole (yet?) for Nix so I'll be checking that out as well. Thanks in advance for your input!

Last week I was asking about when and why you started using Linux, thank you everyone who took their time to write an answer! It was interesting to read all of your guys stories and I was surprised just how far back some of them go.

Now I am curious about your guys DE/WMs. What do you use? What do you like/don't like about it? What have you tried? What is you go to? Any you absolutely can not stand the sight of? Any that you tried that disappointed you?

Once again no judgment, just curious about peoples experiences.

Hey there. Like many of us I'm new to lemmy, and have also never really moderated anything before elsewhere. I'm thinking about starting a community here, but I don't really have the time or willpower to moderate a community if it starts to grow too much. It could be nice if there were others that wanted to help out down the line, but I'm unsure if they'll be able to if they don't have an account on this instance. Does anyone know?

My feeling is that it probably doesn't matter, but I'm unsure. Also, just out of curiosity, is it possible to make communities on other instances?

It’s Saturday. Reddit apps have shutdown. Major lemmy instances are failing under the strain. lemmy.world is trying to do a version upgrade in all this. beehaw worker bees are swarming. How are you enjoying this lemonlemmy party?

24
 
 

I am just very curious what peoples stories are. And if you are not using Linux what is holding you back?

No judgement of any kind, just pure curiosity.
