Don't worry, he'll be back

I don't care what anyone says I will always read it as start rek

I've seen a lot of lag and downtime from lemmy.world off and on. It seems like they get hit with DDoS or have maintenance issues (for lack of any real IT knowledge). I get the feeling they're getting squeezed and targeted because they're the flagship instance, but that's just speculation on my part.

(Posting from kbin.social in case that matters.)

That is exactly the thing I homed in on before anything else. You would think that just by statistical probability the guy must have one single good trait somewhere in there, but nope. Garbage from the haircut on down.

@Arotrios had a really good post about some of the stuff you can do with kbin to follow other communities or even entire instances across the fediverse.

I don't know if this is quite the same thing, but @kersploosh was waging a war on bot accounts. Maybe they have some inside or can come up with something in conjunction with the admins.

Edit: that's @kersploosh @sh.itjust.works in case the one here is someone else.

I was in the same position. I looked into it a little bit and my TL;DR version is that tankies are people who in general are apologists for the Russian and Chinese governments using fascistic and dictatorial measures. I'm guessing that more broadly speaking this could apply to supporting any government that uses violence against its own people, but it usually comes up in the context of those two countries.

When I was a kid in the '70s and '80s I can remember the front grill and windshield of our car being absolutely plastered with bugs. I mean like power wash to get them off plastered. Today it's surprising if I have more than a handful of smudges on my windshield.

Don't forget bats and bees!

Same here. I've just noticed this over the last 24 to 48 hours. And it seems to be worse on computer. Right now I've been browsing with Firefox on Android and it seems to be doing fine.

Let's be honest. Most of us have waited our entire lives for this moment. A hairy-breasted man with not one, not two, not three, but four nipples? And leg pigtails? If this is wrong, I don't want to be right.

Is there a way yet to block an entire instance's posts, or is that beyond what you can do as a user?
