Cheers! Thank you for all your hard work maintaining the instance.

The admin of the instance should have the highest authority, depending on the instance they might be happy to have someone take over.

Yet you give in out of desperation only to find the subreddit is private.

There's another search engine, it has a nice interface that you can easily copy the !community@instance

Yeah, I mean it makes sense. You might need to report a comment to the mod of the community. But if it's say an instance issue (spam or certain NSFW type) the admin of the instance you are a member of might need to be notified to de-federate in extreme circumstances.

The 502 error with Lemmy.ml due to connecting with IPv6. Once I disabled that on my computer, everything loaded. See https://lemmy.world/post/120796

Something must have happened during the upgrade yesterday and DNS isn't pointing correctly. Hopefully it is fixed soon.

The flood when browsing all or if you have a ton of subscriptions is a feature that's going to be altered in the next version. It worked when submissions were coming in much slower. Now there is a ton of activity.

If you are trying to search for a community but it's not appearing try searching:

!CommunityName@InstanceName

This will tell the server to pull community and when you subscribe, that will make that community for everyone else on the server.

Instant Pot is the perfect gift for when you send your kid off to college. Everyone I know has one of these things. It's better than a crock pot, the thing actually locks and I can throw it on the floor in the back of my car for a potluck.

Ah interesting, I guess it made sense when the community was much smaller. Seeing a new posting pop up every few minutes. Now that there are significantly more users and instances the live postings are hitting much faster, every few seconds.

The it's fun being a refugee. Also being able to comment and get involved without being it lost to the masses. Even if it doesn't become "mainstream" with enough seeded users who decide to stay this place can hopefully grow a nice community with a wide range of quality discussions.

The issue is with IPv6 at the moment, only connection requests with IPv4 are working. It might have to do with the new server that was updated recently and DNS hasn't updated correctly yet. As a work around you can disable IPv6 and it should work (Or use a VPN as people have had success with that.

What I hate the most is when there's a bunch of different versions or models of a product and all the reviews are combined in the same page. Having to always check which model of a product they are reviewing is annoying.
