Lemm.ee is dead

Submitted ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩ by ⁨vsh@lemm.ee⁩ to ⁨meta@lemm.ee⁩

It’s over. You broke the federation.

It’s currently one of the worst servers out there. Insane login times, viewing profile and inbox takes forever, other users don’t see your comments, still can’t share images in comments while other servers can, and has many toxic instances that have not been defederated yet (why?).

One of the things I noticed when I was new is how people recommended joining low populated servers to help with fediverse diversity. Lemmy.world was bursting and it made sense at that time, but now I changed my mind. It’s unreliable as fuck. You see all this shit happening to lemm.ee but not other servers. I would never recommend condemning your username by joining this shithole. It’s my first post and probably the last one. Idk, go rollback to version 0.1 maybe it was the only one working fine. Lemm.ee has fallen, but I guess that’s what happens when your server is a raspberry pi of some underage kid. Raise the flag, shit server claims another soul.

  I don’t feel obligated to post. The current situation caused me to take extreme measures.

So much entitlement here… Just spin your instance on a bug ass server (and pay for it) instead of complaining about something that is given to you for free.

  If I had the resources, I would.
  
  For now, it’s easier to make a new account elsewhere.

Not having some ideological defederation policy is precisely the reason I have my main account here.

See ya later 👋

  I thought it was a good idea as well. Until obnoxious propaganda started to spill on my /all screen. It’s very one sided too.

  Stay silent and enjoy your shitty server or speak up and ask for change. It’s your decision.

Holy shit, man. You can ask for your money back if it really stings that much.

The other issues aside (which will be solved in due time) I’m glad that we don’t defederate willy nilly, you can always block instances as a user

ok

Navarian@lemm.ee ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago
Is it just me that has had zero problems? I can’t say I even understand half of what you’re talking about here.

I run a community here and I’ve had essentially 0 issues that weren’t addressed appropriately quickly by the admin team.

Have fun elsewhere.

  Perhaps you missed what happened during the last weeks. Updating lemmee to 0.19v caused all variations of fuckery and broke the instancing inside out. But hohoho 🎅 devs are sleeping because it’s holidays.

    The devs run it on lemmy.ml for a while and said it was ok to update. You cannot blame lemm.ee for trusting that. These things are complex and things get missed. You’d probably know that if you contributed to open source, rather than consume and complain when it isn’t perfect. Keep leeching elsewhere.

when your server is a raspberry pi of some underage kid

You couldn’t be further from the truth. sunaurus has been an exemplary admin, with clear communication and obvious competence. He’s even contributing to the source code and helped other admins in troubling times.

Yes the situation is/was bad, but for anyone who followed the server, as an exception. Coincidentally right around the holidays.

It’s fine if you rather want to move to another instance, but can you do so unlike an underage kid, slinging fabricated dirt on your way out?

  The db upgrade has been fire. It’s working great now

lemm.ee has always been one of the most stable instances lol. When other instances had issues in the past, lemm.ee was typically immune already, and our admin was front and centre helping the other instances out.

There were issues with 0.19.0, which have now largely been addressed. The site here is as speedy as ever now.

  Speed is just the tip of the iceberg here.

    Just saw your edit above. So is it mainly that they won’t defederate? If you want that, then you need to move to lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works or beehaw.org. These instances would more fit that ideology.
    
    /u/sunaurus quite clearly wanted to defederate from lemmygrad.ml and hexbear. He’s from Estonia, a former Soviet country that absolutely does not like Russia. Estonia gained independence from the Soviet Union, but instead of a violent revolution, they won their freedom by singing.
    
    The only reason you think this instance is associated with those instances is because some users from those instances started to moonlight over here after their instance was defederated from lemmy.world and other major community instances. lemm.ee is as open as reasonably possible - spammers are blocked, but others are allowed for the sake of allowing open discussion. Users from lemmygrad and hexbear also moonlight on lemmy.ml now, since the defederations, but lemmy.ml communities are often moderated in the same style as those tankie communities.
    
    I was banned from hexbear for frivilous reasons, well before they started making alt accounts here. I kind of wanted lemm.ee to defederate, if only so I didn’t keep seeing hexbear posts in my feed that I couldn’t comment on. Now, I can block hexbear and not see their communities, but I can still call them out in less oppressively moderated subs whenever they step out. Usually they don’t, because they’re pussies when they don’t have mods to hide behind.
    
    lemmygrad.ml has some of the same shit, but it’s at least a little bit more rational. I can argue with them and toe their lines, even if I get nothing but downvotes.
    
    So yeah, if you don’t like how lemm.ee is federated, then maybe it just isn’t the instance for you. You would be better off with another. However, that isn’t a flaw in lemm.ee - certainly not a technical flaw, which your original post was focused on - that’s just, like, your opinion, man.

    So what issues are actually currently bothering you? Given that your last post here is a version and massive hardare upgrade behind where we are now.
