Sorry. Was finishing my shift at work
I don't believe so. Divolt is a self hosted instance of Revolt that FMHY uses. And revolt is basically a Open source discord alternative. I started my account there to see if there was any news about it.Though yeah, Mastodon or something might not be a bad idea, but obviously it's up to the admins on their plans
No worries! Hope it was a good day at work.
I see, thanks for the explanation. Ideally I'd like Mastodon, so there'd be no mandatory new account. But yeah it's up to the admins. If they already have Divolt, I'm not sure they'd be willing to manage another platform. We'll see ๐
Other than the management being a pain. Pretty good haha.
And yeah that's fair. I dont disagree with that. And I'm sure if the demand or the need for a wider net arises. I'm sure it'll be taken care of
Dang, management doing their thing as usual lol.
Cheers to that! With the instance growing, I'm hopeful your prediction proves correct ๐ฅ
Right? Like imagine getting talked down to because a customer called asking if they left something at the shop. We have a phone for a reason lmao.
And yeah. I think the staff are doing a great job. Just some growing pains. Especially after the reddit thing and the platform growing
It looks like someone in management had a pretty bad day lol. No need to unleash their frustration on you, though. I hope you managed to be super zen about it. You need a lot of patience when dealing with this kind of people. A lot of bosses are like that, unfortunately.
Agree, the staff seems really good. There's also a post about the down now. Reddit is really going down the drain imho. spez is destroying it. I myself moved here because of him. The API changes, the killing of 3rd party apps and the ad hoc rules to stifle the protest were the last straw for me.
He's notoriously bad. So I'm used to it haha. Just like. Why? Lol
And yeah. Reddit has been... Not doing great. I've already been preferring open source as is. But that really changed things
