When I try to access lemmy.blahaj.zone I get Safari asking if I want to download it (???) and Firefox just times out. The server status on Lestat shows as fine though, and I don’t seem to be having any trouble loading pics from LBZ.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Hey, sorry if this doesn't go here. But my posts and comments seem to be getting no interaction, which is unusual. I was wondering if piefed.blahaj.zone had shadowbanned me for some reason, though I don't know why that would be.

does the piefed instance get updated automagically?

i was just curious cause i always see changes but the version still says 1.0.1-dev. hopefully you're not having to deploy all the time! i was just curious :3

I came back to lemmy after a short break and lemmy.blahaj.zone (the default client) doesn't load, and on photon and alexandritte upvotes are broken

We keep trying, filling in the form and using the code from the link place and it just keeps telling us that there's an error no matter what we do. Could someone or somemany please look into it? Thanks!

So using lemmy via the main web ui is very slow to load, and then sometimes only loads a few elements recently.

Can this be fixed?

For me at least. lemmy.blahaj.zone doesn't load but phtn.lemmy.blahaj.zone does.

Not sure if this goes here; apologies if it doesn't.

I created an account to try out Piefed, and the above message shows up on my homepage. However, no such email exists in my inbox. I've checked my spam folder. Not sure if any functionality is missing because of this.

All help appreciated.

the estonian community is on there. also why is it defederated if it is?

I just made a new instance but I have no clue how to federate with others like you, an inclusive community and see their posts and such. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask

I can get to this instance via app, but it seems impossible via any browser.

Edit: This is effectively solved by this browser plugin I found that lets me swap instances with a single click. It turns out there is no way to make an RSS feed for remote users between instances, so this is a close 2nd in terms of convenience.

For example: I want to follow this user's posts because they post regular hand-crafted news posts. The RSS link noted in the screenshot gives me this error pasted at the end of this post.

I tried going to lemmy.world and their RSS feed button works, but I don't want the .world link in my RSS feed, as I want to comment on the post sometimes. Is there any way to get the blahaj.zone user RSS feed working for non-blahaj.zone users?

Thanks in advance.

The error (in .json format): 'CouldntFindPerson: CouldntFindPerson\n 0: lemmy_routes::feeds::get_feed_user\n at crates/routes/src/feeds.rs:254\n 1: lemmy_routes::feeds::get_feed\n at crates/routes/src/feeds.rs:193\n 2: lemmy_server::root_span_builder::HTTP request\n with http.method=GET http.scheme="https" http.host=lemmy.blahaj.zone http.target=/feeds/u/PerfectDark@lemmy.world.xml otel.kind="server" request_id=7991f179-8c64-43cb-8eba-0247d85cef70\n at src/root_span_builder.rs:16'

Kaity has just spun up a PieFed instance, which is open to anyone that wants to try it out.

PieFed is part of the "Threadiverse" along with lemmy and mbin. If you are already reading this in lemmy, then you already know what PieFed is about.

If you're curious to try it out, or if you're just looking for a way to avoid lemmy, you can find it at https://piefed.blahaj.zone/

Like our lemmy instance, we have set PieFed applications to require manual approval, but if you're already a member of our lemmy instance, you can get auto approved by our modbot by quoting your registration code somewhere in your application.

Does anyone know why blahaj.zone (sharkey) keeps giving error 504? It gave me one yesterday then sorted it and I'm getting another one now? Considering moving to transfem.social because this is a bit silly.

If my account is on Blahaj and the community I moderate is on another instance like lemmy.world, and the user is from an instance we defederate from like hexbear, I won't see the hexbear user's comments (or even their user if I search for it) from my Blahaj instance, and so I don't see a way I can moderate their comments on the lemmy.world instance I moderate.

Does this seem right? Is there any workaround?

(I guess I could make an account on the same instance as the community I moderate just for moderating that instance?)

whenever I fill out my bio and press save, it doesn't save. halp

Thanks to Kaity Blåhaj PIx and Blåhaj Tube are up and running!

Feel free to check them out!

For now, it's just me moderating, so applications to join may not be instant. If we start to get busy, we'll onboard some more mods in the future.

Enjoy!

this is NOT related to that recent post here about blocking .ml.

i already kno that i can block users.

ive had very bad experiences from a certain... instance i would like to block entirely. i have been on the lookout for users commenting and interacting on the communities i care about, and that instance is... not so important to me. som of these peeps hav been evil to me before...

can i just like - block em? like - the entire instance?... or do i have to nicely ask the Ada <3 to... block it for every blahaj fren? (i dun want that! u peeps shud be able to interact with whoever u wan! i dun wan to be ur dictator <3 )

As posted about recently in !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works and !fediverselore@lemmy.ca it seems that @nutomic@lemmy.ml's stance on transphobia has not changed and his apology only seems to be that he was sorry he got caught and that someone leaked the DM. This is concerning for an admin of Lemmy.ml and the leader of the project. I don't think this means we should stop using Lemmy, it's open-source and even if they embed donation links, they can be stripped out in our fork. But it does make me wonder if we should consider defederating lemmy.ml on that merit. Since if they hold such views on trans issues, it's very likely they won't have any desire to act on that type of transphobia being expressed on their instance.

I know that Lemmy.ml has and does handle overt transphobia well, but I can't speak to their ability to handle less overt or thinly veiled transphobia, and this incident doesn't inspire much confidence either.

Edit: Since some people haven't seen the original. I decided to include it here. Warning, it contains transphobia, if you don't want to see that, don't open the spoiler.

CW: Transphobic talking points

I'd really like to hear Feedback from Blahaj's local community on this, I'm not as interested in outside opinions here so please try to refrain from top-level commenting if you aren't from lemmy.blahaj.zone (I will ignore them if you comment anyway from a remote instance).

does anybody know why image previews sometimes don't show in the web client?

i'm using firefox mobile on android, if it matters.

I'm not sure how pervasive this is, but Maeve@kbin.earth's comments don't seem to have federated. I can only see 24 of them from 9 months ago, but when I go to kbin.earth I can see the user has over 3000.

I'm definitely not a federation expert, so there may be a good reason for this. I wanted to point it out in case it was part of a larger issue.

i just wanted to thank whoever approved my account. i was not expecting such a quick approval.
