coffeeClean, (edited ) to reddit in Reddit sent me invitations to their IPO to my "deleted" accounts! That's a GDPR violation!

You are on a privacy-offending Cloudflare site (), so Tor users are blocked from seeing your Cloudflare-jailed image. If you care about privacy you will bounce from that instance.

Without seeing the image, I have to ask how an anonymous user gets rights. Or has started supporting an identification mechanism of some kind? When I start the reg process, it asks for an email address, username, and pw, not a first + lastname (but my test stopped when a Google reCAPTCHA push was attempted). I have zero sympathy for Reddit – they are rotten to the core scumbags, but I do not see how the GDPR can be applied to anonymous accounts.

(edit) I gather from other comments you must have posted an email. Would be great if you could copy the text of the email into the body of your post so everyone can see it and so people using screen readers can hear it. Thanks!

activistPnk, (edited ) to solarpunktravel in Other travel communities for the sidebar

I guess you don’t consider !bicycle_touring fit for the sidebar then.

Bicycle touring is relevant but indeed lemmy.world is antithetical to fedi philosophy and purpose so I wouldn’t want to promote it on the sidebar. has a group for everything and needs no promotion. They replicate communities in the free world, effectively poaching from better places.

Would you be opposed if some content from over there would also be crossposted to here?

No; feel free to crosspost either way.

My personal approach is to post initially in the most relevant free world decentralized community first, creating a new community if necessary. If the post contains a question that’s starving for answers after some time, then I might cross post to centralized places¹ in part to promote the better venue to those in places of oppression… to try to steer people toward a more ethical workflow.

Some instances only show the parent of a cross post, while other instances show both parents and children in a cross posting scenario. This is why I favor the digital rights respecting community for the initial post.

① e.g. lemmy world, sh.itjust·works, lemm·ee, lemmy·ca, programming·dev, and lemmy.ml.

@pleasemakesense Technical question about this post: Can someone please explain how a link from works when posted to ?

When I click on the link, it shows this same post plus all of the same comments. I'm trying to understand how it works. thx

A whole community was simply deleted… Despite Lemmy World’s “ will protect us” security model.

If you play Minecraft: Java Edition, are still on a Mojang account and haven't migrated to a Microsoft account yet, you have less than a week left to migrate. Your profile will be deleted if you don't.

Posted more about it on Lemmy:

LemmyWorld, to random

Lemmy.world is temporarily disabling open signups and moving to an application-required signup process, due to ongoing issues with malicious bot accounts.

We know this is a major step to take, but we believe that it’s the right one for both us and our community right now.

“view context” broken b̶e̶c̶a̶u̶s̶e̶ (and) lemmy.world has just joined Cloudflare (unrelated)

I was trying to work out why it is that when I receive a notification and I click “view context” nothing happens if the msg came from lemmy.world. The screen blinks for a second but gives no prior posts. Well after digging into this, I see that #lemmyWorld has just recently joined the exclusive #walledGarden of Cloudflare....

diyrebel, (edited ) to lemmy_support in “view context” broken b̶e̶c̶a̶u̶s̶e̶ (and) lemmy.world has just joined Cloudflare (unrelated)

Ah, thanks for the info. But note that there are two “show context” buttons. In principle, if I am on a broken version I should be able to visit the parent on the originating node & possibly side-step the bug. But in this case the other node blocks me (Cloudflare).

Also note that I would still like a way to block CF instances. I’m in the to participate in the free world & prefer not to feed centralized walled gardens from which I am a refugee. Oppressors should not be able to thrive in the .

is centralized in 2 ways:

  • Cloudflare
  • disproportionate user population
nachtigall, to lemmy_support in “view context” broken b̶e̶c̶a̶u̶s̶e̶ (and) lemmy.world has just joined Cloudflare (unrelated)

Then I try the fedi icon and nothing happens at all… no expansion or anything. But I can see that the button is sensitive because it flashed as I clicked it. So then I forcefully copied that external link into a new tab in Tor Browser and it just shoots a blank.

Indeed. I can reproduce this behaviour with this comment from this thread. See the following screenshot from my network console. The body says {“error”: “not_logged_in”}, so maybe a caching error or something like that? I’ll ping the admin of lemmy.world

running over tor, which shows ’s blockade I screencapped.

That makes sense. Cloudflare often blocks Tor IPs or spams them with captchas.

have always been wholly broken in ungoogled chromium.

No problem on my side.

It's the logo, in emoji form, that can be used on Mastodon.

It's delightful. :lw: Pretty proud how it turned out.

#lemmyworld is so much faster today than the point people started migrating from Reddit. The devs deserve high praise for getting the system performance fixed. https://lemmy.world/post/1061471

In the last six months I designed three logos for the Fediverse: one for :mw: , another for :lw: and one for .

Hundreds of thousands of folks see my logos each day.

Feels good!

settles on its big central instance: lemmy.world () run by @ruud

Its numbers are now big enough to be counted amongst the top 5-10 masto instances! (https://fedidb.org/network/instance/lemmy.world) as become the “second platform” by size.

Apart from running it well and keeping up to date (recent update seems to have gone well, with a nice example of instances and admins helping each other!?), some redditers seek the big instances?? Curious how communities will adapt.

Lemmy.world :lw: now has a new logo, which I had my fingers in putting together and branding in the @mwadmin blue/green! :mw:
