I see. Thank you!

Is it possible to list blocked communities in the /instances page? Or at least list them in a post? Just so users know what's being blocked.

Awesome. My dream is that more and more people manage to do the same, so spez (and all the other big tech CEOs) learn their lesson the hard way.

It looks like someone in management had a pretty bad day lol. No need to unleash their frustration on you, though. I hope you managed to be super zen about it. You need a lot of patience when dealing with this kind of people. A lot of bosses are like that, unfortunately.

Agree, the staff seems really good. There's also a post about the down now. Reddit is really going down the drain imho. spez is destroying it. I myself moved here because of him. The API changes, the killing of 3rd party apps and the ad hoc rules to stifle the protest were the last straw for me.

Thanks for the update.

+1 for a backup Mastodon account 🙂

Dang, management doing their thing as usual lol.

Cheers to that! With the instance growing, I'm hopeful your prediction proves correct 🥂

Good idea, yeah. I'm a bit worried about the instance-goes-boom scenario, but I understand this basically comes with the package in the fediverse.

About Reddit, well lol the more I'm on Lemmy the less I'm inclined to go back. spez really did the magic with his BS, eh? 😂

No worries! Hope it was a good day at work.

I see, thanks for the explanation. Ideally I'd like Mastodon, so there'd be no mandatory new account. But yeah it's up to the admins. If they already have Divolt, I'm not sure they'd be willing to manage another platform. We'll see 🙂

Agreed, I'd also like Mastodon 🙂

Oh yes I actually agree with that decision. Better safe than sorry.

But I was worried about the information blackout. I feared the admins got hacked and locked out of the server.

I'm not familiar with Divolt. Can you browse without being registered? If not, maybe we need a more public backup channel? Dunno, maybe on Mastodon or on another Lemmy instance?

Today I even checked the fmhy sub on Reddit but there was nothing there.

Also, there's seems to be no official word from the admins yet.

Edit: official word here!
