Oh, I was just lamenting that such a garbage post is contributing to the backlog because of the activities it generates (which LW has to federate out since its "owns" the community this was posted in). Basically a potshot at a low-effort, shit take of a post.
It's a Lemmy thing. Basically latency limits the maximum number of activities that can be sent per second (they're sent like TCP: serially, and each must be acknowledged). When LW has a LOT of activities to send out, they can get backlogged if there's significant latency between LW and other federated servers.
That's the gist of it, anyway.
I've seen this site get spammed in the past, but it's been a few months. Guess they're at it again.
That whole site is an unholy mixture of religion, conspiracy, and Elon Musk. It's bonkers.
Basically if you see tiblur [dot] com, you can pretty much just report it as spam.
Rule 3 seems to be very unenforced lately 😠
We did discuss that, but figured it might be too confusing. Plus, with the federation delays that were happening yesterday, didn't want to take the risk.
Just assume the new signage isn't here yet lol
I don't know if it was intentional on OP's part, but our April Fool's Day rules are in effect at the moment, so posts are expected to be "Popular Opinions" .
Yeah, timezones are annoying when you want to do something for a specific day. Figured going by UTC would make the most sense.
It's still March for me as well haha.
What kind of misogynistic bullshit is this?
Edit: Oh, I see you edited the post.
Not real tags, just [Tag] in the post title.
e.g. [General] Cheerios are the Best Cereal
Fruits and vegetables.
If my instance ever gets sync'd back up where I can interact in something approximating real-time, I may make that happen lol.
