We run the database and backend on a ax161 on Hetzner. The media is in Wasabi. The alt uis run on a cloud vps.

I also didn't get the e-mail yet.

Also I offered Dan to host a loops instance, as he was asking for ppl to do so. Haven't heard back from him yet, but I guess he's busy :-)

I just started playing Factorio... nowhere near space age yet!

Ooh an iPhone that's been locked for 50 years, I wonder what iPhones looked like in 1974!

I haven't read this. But I know you can unlock your iPhone using your icloud account.

(Still, happy I switched to android this year)

Yes there is an issue with the Mlym container (old.lemmy.world), we have now stopped it because it also slowed the other alternative UI's. We'll troubleshoot this.

It would have been better if they communicated to us first. I don't disagree that user signups should be spread over instances. We now have a link to https://lemmyverse.net on our signup page so people can check if another instance would fit them better.

I have setup bskysocial.world to test that (there's no web interface, just select this domain when logging in or signing up via the app or https://bsky.app)

Note: This is for testing only, I can't promise it will remain running.

I think the owner of this (and other decades music) is no longer active. I'll find some other mods for it if he doesn't respond to my message, and I'm sure we can update the title ;-)

[–] ruud 1 points 2 months ago

It's a feature of the app, where it doesn't load all messages at once. Whenever you've read all it has loaded, you'll see this message, and when clicking it it will load more posts.

I think the links and usernames are now OK.

[–] ruud 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Yeah that went wrong when copy/pasting the text, I'll fix it.

 

Finally a new blog post about all our instances and the finances..

The community already existed but was deleted by the creator. I have purged that and you can now create it again.

Currently we have an images issue. Our Wasabi (S3) account was disabled because of some illegal content that was found, we're working with them to get the account re-enabled and the content removed.

[Update 20240308 14:47 UTC] The issue has been fixed.

Have a good weekend!

 

Normally not a fan of Eurovision music, with some exceptions. But this year's entry for The Netherlands is a very nice 90's happy harcore tune. Pays-bas douze points

There's some unrest because the Open Collective Foundation is stopping.

Don't worry, we use Open Collective Europe as a donations platform, they're going nowhere.

We've added some donation platforms, so if you would like to support us running our .world servers, you can do so here:

And for those wanting to donate crypto:

  • Monero address: 83tnuFN4f28jRxTBW9qGDad2U23qNE5nfeW4Pfyd85oWMW7J9gqpXi3S8FDbX5uEeCAKcGnSpS2XT5dGwYiELthg8XuDrxH
  • Cardano address: addr1v9qv6xvfwcx9ny56uag4umu6238sw2e7ff2kcxl3qe7p9esayjxgu

Thank you!

[Edit] Some of the links were broken, they should now all work! [Edit 20240314: Added Liberapay]

Next to Mastodon.world and Lemmy.world I am also running Calckey.world. This was running Calckey, a Misskey fork. That was re-branded to FireFish (that's the danger of running sites with the software name in the URL... :-) ).

Unfortunately due to circumstances the FireFish software will no longer be maintained. Therefore I was looking for another Misskey fork that could replace it, and I found Sharkey. This looks really nice.

So being who I am, I registered https://sharkey.world and installed it. It still needs some configuring and branding, but it works and you can use it! (As you will see it currently uses the Calckey.world branding)

I will write a brief how-to on migrating from Calckey to Sharkey and hope the calckey.world users will migrate.
