Don’t worry, I appreciate the work our admins have put into the site
One of the beautiful things with the fediverse is that I’ve just created an alt account on another instance, so I can
1: Reduce the load on lemmy.world servers
2: use the alt account if lemmy.world is down
Idk, I feel too lazy to inform myself of what other instances are about and creating a whole new account for them
I’m commenting from lemmy.nz. If you have an account on another instance you can still access everything on lemmy.world
and with LASIM you can migrate all your subs over with a couple clicks.

I’ve been so hesitant about making another account, but this one seem very useful. Thanks for this one!
That’s is one of major Lemmy flaw IMHO
They should have separated identification and content. Make a unified id system and then let people host their own communities on the federated level.
This would have been expecially important as you can’t really move your account among instances, and would have make the registration process also much easier for normal users who just want to use the platform
The point of Lemmy is decentralisation. No one thing has ultimate power
You can make identification decentralized/distributed too
Just in a different way so that it is unequivocal
The only protocols I’ve seen which do this require users to use PGP/GPG keys. Its very definitively not user friendly. I’d rather the Lemmy and KBin devs emphasize their focus on other improvements rather than reinvent how the fediverse, including mastodon, does authentication
i read that is one of technical improvement that the bluesky atproto try to implement
Isn’t .NZ exclusively about New Zealand? Like, I’m a native Spanish speaker, but I don’t see any lemmy instances in spanish
y si, .nz es nuevo zelanda. soy kiwi
*Nueva
Spanish is a very gendered language
Ah si, lo siento, nuevo zelando :P
Por cierto hay instances que estan en espanol.
Posiblemente puedes encontrar algo en ese link?
Si no puedes, hay communities en espanol como…
Read the two sentence long descriptions on join-lemmy.org/instances and use the same username and password if you’re that lazy.
sweet
see I always expected it to be like a “well, first you gotta have a MariaDB or Postgress” then “you’ll need to configure nginx” followed by security gobblygook , and if you want a UI you’ll have to figure that out on your own
Yeah, it’s pretty simple.
Yeah I mean, if you want to RUN a server
Or join a specialized instance and create a username that the people in that instance will understand but not the normies. (For the record, yes, this is my lemmy.world account, but my username on startrek.website is much more obscure than this one)
Oh I see the problem! There just isn’t enough RGB!
Just download more RAM FFS! How hard can it be??
Really good bacon?
I see the issue. The ram isn’t oriented correctly. And to overclock they should let the potato sprout.
The CPU is also set to Mini, they should turn it to Wambo.
Some stickers would probably help as well.
Yeah, flames on the side make it go faster.
You obviously know how to finely tune a spaceship.
Mmm, baked potato 🤤
Better sick another RAM module in there for good measure.
Better seat them properly too - not all the pins of the current RAM are inserted into the potato. No wonder it isn’t working!
We need to download more RAM
That’s how you can tell this is obviously fake, the RAM needs to be connected pins first.
If it were on it’s side 100% legit.
As far as retro PCs go these days that’s like $1000 in parts
I’ve got a potato farm running hundreds of these… Solar powered too! I’ll be mining that mash to the moon.
Gigabyte? Pshh, no wonder! Should’ve used Asrock.
It’s probably running Windows Me
We’re running Windows Vista thank you and please 💪😎💪
Vista literally wouldn’t run on a potato. It’s too powerful for it to handle. But it’s awesome that you managed to fit it on there without it exploding.
Or they downloaded more ram lol
Link?
Excellent Link thank you
Not a virus I swear 🤡
Rubbish. They have one hamster on a wheel, running so fast his feet are red hot.
I gave up with Lemmy World and made an account elsewhere.
Sir, we’re gonna need another hamster
Are you Richard Gere or Marc Almond?
You mean GLaDOS has been responsible for running lemmy.world? Goddammit, Chell, look at what your shenanigans did!
ikr it crashes basically every day
It’s getting DDOSed every day.
More than daily
Without a fan on that heatsink, that’s one… Hot Potato.
The potato’s got a TDP of 15W dw it’ll be fine passive.
True, hopefully they’ve put thermal grease on it…
Preferably butter.
Bits of cheese in it too, makes the heat taste better
It’s baking
😏
Finally someone says it. It’s been crashing for like 2 days
They’ve been repeatedly attacked recently…
When did they say that? Could it be Reddit?
And here, posted today by admins.
They’ve talked about the ddosing on the lemmy.world discord server.
They can’t say it because their instance is down :)
PS2 and VGA connector, tiny heatsink, only 1 USB slot… That’s an antedeluvian machine, no wonder it can’t take the load ^^
We call them ‘vintage potatoes.’
how are you holding up? because I’m a potato >~>
Clap
Clap
Clap
Oh good. My slow clap processing has made it into this thing. So we have that.
Growing pains. I remember when Reddit had this problem. That was 8 years ago
And again almost 13 years ago when the Digg and Slashdot migrations happened
