It's not even a question (outside of clickbait bs by news agencies)

lemmy.world is probably overloaded.

On my instance, everything from them floods through all at once, filling my first couple of pages with hours or even days worth of stuff, then I'll get nothing from them for a while again.

I mean, maybe it's because I'm not overly paranoid or live in the US, but this doesn't seem like a big deal at all.

As for the "drama" of them telling someone they can unfollow, it's true. It's again, not a big deal.

This screams people trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.

My favorite part is when it finally becomes somewhat less overloaded, and my instance gets flooded with a bunch of posts from there filling the entirety of my front page, and the second page...

21

I tried searching for a local place, and all I got for the first two pages are instagram and facebook pages. It wasn't until the third page I got past all that crap to get to the actual website for the location. I even tried search "PlaceName City Website" and still got all that crap instead.

Is there any way to block it on my personal searxng instance? Sorry if it's obvious.

I'm the only one here.

Not only annoyingly slow, but I tend to get a massive influx of posts from one community all at once. It fills my entire page with that single community. It's been my biggest annoyance so far.

I just wanted to say thank you for this, hopefully it helps to clean up the clutter from this community.

At this point, I'm begging users and the mods. Use the correct communities. This is /c/Technology, not /c/LatestRedditDrama

This community is over-run by this drama, which has multiple communities dedicated to whatever the latest crap reddit is pulling. Please use one of those instead.

I personally despise yotuube shorts. I use rules in my ublock origin to block them so I don't see them on my youtube page.

I'm using a cloudflare tunnel for it. I also have crowdsec installed, only allow ssh keys and only from my IP (I have a static from my ISP), and no ports open other than the ones needed.

I used the official docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/matrixdotorg/synapse/

My compose file looks like this: https://pastebin.com/3JYzAPr2

Pretty sure I just followed the instructions there.

I host my own matrix instance for my wife, a few friends and I. It has worked great for us. They can either use a web app, or an app on their phone.
