Now is our chance to post whatever the fuck we want to slrpnk.net communities from non-slrpnk instances, and the mods cannot stop us.

Woohoo! It’s a censorship-free free-for-all!

I just had another look and at least at the moment every pages gives an error. E.g. https://lemmy.today/c/AskLemmy says “There was an error on the server. Try refreshing your browser. If that doesn’t work, come back at a later time. If the problem persists, you can seek help in the Lemmy support community or Lemmy Matrix room.”

Server is online today but every page is an error: “There was an error on the server. Try refreshing your browser.…”

Still down for me, but infosec.pub finds posts from a crazypeople.online account to a cp.o community. So it’s working for someone.

Thanks for the feedback. It was still down for me ~5 min ago, but now it’s up. Maybe the response time is just on the edge of the browsers time-out tolerance.

Offline again. This time it times out.

It’s back online.

To do that well, the post history should be reconstructed. A couple large nodes would possibly be subscribed to every mander community, so they would have a history of posts and comments which could then be reconstructed. Sadly, I think the software to do that does not exist:

As old as Lemmy is now, it’s really a shame there is no backup tool.

The mander community list and descriptions are available in lemmyverse. Unfortunately the descriptions are truncated despite someone’s request a year ago: https://lemmy.tgxn.net/post/5663028

This makes me realise it would be useful to know the admin’s handle of instances while they are offline. In principle, would be good if the Lemmyverse scraper bot would grab that so it’s in the public dataset.

Very happy to have learned about tildeverse.org. It gives a great refuge from a lot of the garbage. But I have to ask, if you are part of the tildeverse project why are you on lemmy.world, a centralised exclusive Cloudflare instance? I realise tildeverse does not have a lemmy node but there are many decent ones and LW is probably the most contrary to the tildeverse philosophies.
