Wondering if our local services/orgs are similarly affected by Twitter forcing people to log in to see tweets.
The consolation is that monyet.cc is a small local standalone instance who happens to be using Lemmy, and not completely dependent on one main site to exist. I don't think anyone would enjoy my deleted posts so far. They're all salah format.

I'm still reading up on it, but this is concerning if it's true.
Yup, had the same problem.
Forward it to your superior and cuci tangan.
I had kueh chap for brunch. Spoiler for tak halal.

Not getting the latest posts over on kbin.social. Hopefully the updates will sync faster across the Fediverse in the near future. I have this local account for back-up in the meanwhile!
I just finished Bangkit by Appy Mohd Hapizan, a Fixi Novel Sarawak 2016 contest winner. It honestly took a long time, and this was my second try.
The cool thing about it is that the dialogue is in Bahasa Sarawak. I'm torn about the use of real world places (actual business were used as a setting and not shown in a negative light); it helps a Kuching resident picture exactly where the story takes place. Even mentions the multiple roundabouts and the notorious traffic jam heading to Samarahan (most of the roundabouts no longer exist as of this year).
Interesting use of popular local folklore in the plot, although I felt that the book could have started at the 2/3 point of the novel and expanded on the alternate universe a little.
Not sure what my next read is going to be yet. I just scored a luxury edition of 'X: The Erotic Treasury" edited by Susie Bright and it's lying around within arms reach because I can't get over how beautiful the edition is.
