[Solved] Beehaw crashing after few minutes (beehaw.org)

When leaving home page up in Firefox tab after ~5 minutes the tab will crash. This started last night and initially thought a fluke however is continuing this morning. I've tried CTRL+F5 to clear cache in case some code change but that did not resolve the issue. Also checked console for error messages though did not see any. So far have not had an individual post page crash; only the home page. Any other steps I can take to help troubleshoot?

Edit: Seems to have been an issue with Firefox 114.0.1. Version 114.0.2 is available now and after updating the issue is gone.

How do you obtain your music? in c/[email protected]

Mostly Pandora for music discovery with some occasional Spotify mixed in

yt-dlp to download a few favorites to listen to in car via phone

Love the new icons in c/[email protected]

And thank you for reminding about bangs

What's your default view? Subscribed, local or all? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Local

I'm sorting by New and watching what comes through to see what I want to ensure I'm subscribed to as well as what to block. I'll likely stay on local most of the time.

I find All to be jarring when several posts load from other instances and only switch to it when exploring other community options.

What are YOU self-hosting? in c/selfhosted

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

My longest running self-host is the RSS reader Tiny Tiny RSS running on a Digital Ocean droplet with Ubuntu 22.04

what are some good communities NOT on beehaw.org or lemmy.ml? in c/[email protected]

It would be nice to see a new home for Tabletop Game Design; much enjoyed the discussions around both role playing and board/card games alike.

what games are you playing this week? in c/[email protected]

Just reinstalled Guild Wars 2; recalled enjoying my time there long while back and was glad to see Steam installs it just fine for playing on Linux.

Yeah, definitely avoid anything divisive; thanks :)

Can I subscribe to another instance (not a community within an instance)? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Not sure about an entire instance however looks like you can browse their community list and subscribe to them individually:

List = https://lemmy.directory/communities

Sidebar info on how to subscribe:

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]

Edit: here's a direct link example showing option to subscribe to above:

Does Lemmy have any way of rewarding members who donate similar to Patreon such as differences in avatars, personal community, etc. ?

Just removed the RIF icon and replaced it with Jerboa in c/[email protected]

Thank you for mentioning Jerboa; installed and quite happy with it so far.

I was searching for Reddit alternatives and found a rather long list that included which were open source, federated, had apps, etc. and that's where I first heard about Lemmy. As I was browsing the different sites I found additional people talking about Lemmy specifically and that got me to research further and eventually join.
