The monkey's paw curls...

Sure, let's heap all the suffering on Miorine for a change!

Wenn eine Instanz verschwindet, bleibt der bisher von ihr publizierte Content durch die Föderation auf anderen Instanzen anscheinend erhalten, aber neuer Content kann in diesen nicht mehr gepostet werden. Und die Useraccounts sind natürlich auch futsch.

Deswegen sollte man denke ich zumindest einen Backup-Account auf einer anderen Instanz haben.

Could you link the communities you mentioned?

I've found !animememes@lemmy.ml https://lemmy.ml/c/animemes

Hier geht's um Haftungsfragen, nicht um Datenschutz.

I understand the sentiment, and everyone of course has the right to do this with the content they posted, but please consider:

The only thing this probably achieves is fucking over people googling for specific information in the future. How often have I searched for some really specific problem or information, only to find a thread in some niche subreddit from years ago with exactly what I needed?

For Reddit itself it's trivial to keep previous versions of comments. Also deleted posts can just be flagged as 'hidden' and still remain in the database. They already have your content and won't be giving it up. So please consider leaving it available for the public as well.

That's a good idea! I understand the sentiment of leaving a final "fuck you" to Reddit, but at the same time the thought of losing the treasure trove of accumulated knowledge stored there pains me.

Ja, das ist einer der Workarounds, die man hier noch so braucht. Im Laufe der Zeit wird sich das sicher noch verbessern.

Es gibt die Möglichkeit einen relativen Link (also nur den Teil nach der Domain) zu setzen. Da das URL-Schema auf jeder Lemmy-Instanz gleich ist, wird dieser die Community immer auf der lokalen Instanz öffnen, wenn diese Community dort schon synchronisiert wird. Also z.B. ein Link nur mit dem Ziel /c/memes@lemmy.ml: klick mich führt immer auf die lokal föderierte Version.

Funktioniert aber leider nur in den Web-Interfaces, nicht in den Apps. Für Posts und Kommentare scheint es auch keine Lösung zu geben, weil die auf jeder Instanz eine andere ID haben.

I was thinking of something like that too, but probably never would've gotten around to implement it myself, so thanks! Could you put your script on Github or something maybe?

Also it would be great if it could also copy at least top-level comments by OP, because that's often used for linking to a source.

That's how I interpret the post pinned to their front page asking users to go somewhere else: https://lemmy.ml/post/1147770

I don't think lemmy.ml is accepting new users currently. Choose another instance (server) from the recommended ones at https://join-lemmy.org/instances

It doesn't really matter much which one, you will still be able to interact with communities across different instances.

I think that might just be due to different Markdown engines supporting different feature sets. But not having a consistent way to tag spoilers really sucks.

Edit: another thing that's bugging me about the Markdown engine in Jerboa is that it interprets basically any number as a clickable phone number: 123
