Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !fediverse@lemmy.ml, !fediverse@lemmy.world

Awesome bot! I have no idea who set it up, but we love you!

Looks like this was setup by @rikudou@lemmings.world - good stuff!

[-] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks! Love you, too!

Oh this is rad! Good bot!

I was JUST thinking that it would be so useful with a bot that does exactly this. Nice!

[-] hemmes@lemmy.one 4 points 1 year ago

Me too lol. Was going to just manually remind anyone I saw.

I did it as well and then I decided it's a job better suited for a bot.

Good bot. These links are more useful, it's good to try and get people in the habit of using them.

Yeah, saw this one. Could be many reasons it’s parked. Could’ve been doing maintenance, migration, missed a renewal, etc. Doesn’t mean it’s gone. Any DNS updates may be subject to TTLs as long as an hour or more (not usually but you never know), and that’s from whenever the update to DNS has been committed by the name servers, and then actually begins to propagate to other servers.

@fediverse@lemmy.ml @fediverse@lemmy.world Been chatting on Lemmy.ml using my .one instance account and it’s sounding like the #VLemmy admin may be cleaning up some content on his server. Still waiting for an official announcement.

I remember earlier today the admin made an announcement post about defederating from burgitt.moe and purging their illicit material from the servers, in order to stay in compliance with Irish law. It's possible that's what the downtime is for, but I'm not sure.
