Seems to be working, within 24 hours that community becomes available. Can I do the same for https://lemmy.ml/c/aviation

[–] 21trillionsats 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah I definitely agree -- you summarized my feelings nicely.

I would also add that as exciting concepts/technologies grow and commercialize they tend to become more subject to noise and self-interest interfering with some of their higher order "platonic" (ideal) forms. I fundamentally think that the more federated/decentralized a service can be, the better its original purpose and perfect form can be maintained. Practically I do think it's challenging for both currency and link aggregation to be properly decentralized, but I think both Bitcoin and Lemmy are inherently beautiful implementations if you strip them down to their core.

I mean I definitely agree that this feels great, but decentralization and federation is what pure Bitcoin and crypto are all about. In many ways this community reminds me of the good vibes and great minds the early days of cryptocurrency discovery encouraged. This predated some of the corruption, VCs, and crypto bros that came around in 2013 during the first boom.

I still think that early soul of empowerment and community is there in Bitcoin itself but you gotta dig a little deeper to find it. I expect Lemmy will also “commercialize” to some extent in coming years, but it’ll always be better than Reddit and other centralized platforms that want to feature gate and censor unfairly.

I think the syncing/federation is just slow and/or degraded temporarily -- especially on popular instances since they're a bit overwhelmed with the user count coming from the Reddit exodus.

now it worked! Yay, now can I get access to https://lemmy.ml/c/marvelsnap ? !marvelsnap@lemmy.ml

LOL nothing at all, was just saying there's plenty of commie posts in quite a few other Lemmy communities. Just saying whoever downvoted you is a dick -- downvotes should only go to truly off-topic and/or toxic posts that break the community rules.

IDK but it's super rude lol. Even if you're a centralized FED lover you should still support new users/subs coming to Lemmy. I can't stand communism but I'm still upvoting posts just for the sake of spreading some Lemmy love!

Hey not everything needs to be federated! I’m a huge decentralization advocate for large scale community resources but for most commercial settings a centralized service like Slack will do the trick!

Wow that was a fantastic read, love how much detail they went into for how they went about hunting for these.

There were a lot of good sources to get the debug symbols for an old game like CSGO but they were very impressive, comprehensive and meticulous. It’s great to see that in combination with their process transparency.

I’ve heard you need to link to it from a post with an exclamation mark for it to work sometimes if it’s obscure… I also cannot find https://lemmy.ml/c/usa

I suspect it is because the other popular instances are getting hammered, it has something to do with them decreasing their API limits and also putting DDoS protection like Cloudflare in place.

I believe after this initial Reddit influx dies down and/or instance moderators scale their services we’ll see it much improved.

I also see that issue with upvotes and even sometimes comment replies.
