big update, awful.systems is now a federated lemmy instance. let me know if anything looks broken! here's what to expect:
- to pull up an awful.systems community on another instance, just paste that community's URL into the other instance's search bar
- federation with other lemmy instances should work, and probably kbin too? there's no way I can find to pull in pre-federation posts on remote instances though, so send your friends here to read the backlogs
- we can't federate with most of mastodon right now because lemmy doesn't implement
authorized_fetch, which is a best practice setting for mastodon instances. if your instance doesn't use it, try entering something like @[email protected] into your mastodon search; lemmy communities are represented to mastodon as users
- this is pretty much an experimental thing so if we have to turn it off, I'll send out another post
- reply to this post with ideas for moderation tools and instances you'd like to see blocked (and a reason why) and we'll take action on anything that sounds like a good idea
federation was made possible by
- lemmy's devs skipping their release process and not telling anyone 0.18.2 was released on friday? so we're on 0.18.2 now
- updating all of the deployment cluster's flake inputs just in case
- @[email protected] shouting yolo
