Hey Everyone,

If you are reading this we are making this community read only, and merging the two communities.

At some point when the Reddthat instances grows bigger it might make sense to have 1 community for support issues and 1 for everything else, but until then

Original Title:Is there a workaround for federation errors with comment replies?

Here's a screenshot of the problem on dropbox

When I hit "reply" on someone's comment (in this case a post all the way over on lemmy.ca: https://reddthat.com/post/350705) it just grays out, and never posts the reply.

Plus, there are more comments on https://feddit.de/post/1392810 than show up on the reddthat version. I imagine that's probably just something I don't understand about lemmy?

I know switching to my phone and finding the comment on liftoff or wefwef allows me to post, which is why I'm hoping one of you knows an exact workaround, including how to use wefwef or liftoff to easily find the comment I'm trying to respond to.

Update 1:

It works on Google Chrome! Reddthat can post comments on other instances just fine using Google Chrome. It's only Firefox that's having this problem right now. (Meaning it's not actually a federation glitch.)

Update 2:

It was my bionic reader extension on firefox. Sorry Tiff. I did not mean to put you through all that debugging for a problem that wound up being a bad extension on my end.

Did somethig happen to the server? Posting ot from Kbin since reddthat is completely inaccessible to me now.

Hey,

I am new to Lemmy. So I created an account here, started to subscribe to some lemmies, then I ran into an issue it seems.

I wanted to subscribe to: [email protected]

Reddthat:

FMHY:

As you can see, reddthat is missing some posts (well, all of them).

Will they appear over time or is this a bug?

Generally, can users expect not to see some posts, sometimes, due to the federated nature?

An interesting link I stumbled upon and thought to share. We are actually also there (pretty hard to see on mobile though), and the concept seems interesting - might even help to diagnose issues in the future? Just an idea from a tech luddite;)

There are a couple of communities I've come across on online lists / forums that I'd like to join, but they aren't showing up on a search despite the usual workarounds. I suspect they might just be hosted on instances we aren't currently federated with, but is there a way to check this so I know if this is the case or if it's due to a bug?

Hi i am new here and got 2 question the first is I created an account on lemmy. World but I can't log in after that night so I decided to make a account here but I was surprised to see that the username I used in world is also be used in redthat so how lemmy will differenciate the 2 account and the 2nd question is what will happen with my account if redthat will shut down the server

Howdy. Im trying to create Norse (mostly to make sure it doesnt fall into the hands of racists or something) Im on the mobile site. I fill in all information but when i click create nothing happens. It auto scrolls me back to the top of the page but i have no warning/indication i did anything wrong. It just doesnt do anything

Maybe this is an option I'm missing somewhere? I find that clicking anything in home/all is a guessing game as to whether it'll keep me here or go to a completely different website. Since I have Reddthat in a tab for easy access, this is very slightly frustrating. 😅

If it's not a feature, might I suggest opening all external links across Reddthat in a new, separate tab?

Hello new friends! Of course I'm a new member having abandoned the shit show that has become reddit and am starting to get the idea of different instances and building a new feed for myself. I saw a post that had some Lemmy equivalents of popular subreddits such as /r/pics and /aww and what not but I've since lost it. I saved the post for later and this morning my saved post was for a comment in an unrelated post. I'll figure out what I did wrong eventually but could anyone help me find this post again? I've been searching all morning and having no luck figuring out where I was when I saw it or how to get back

I am getting these messages fairly regularly lately. No idea what causes them, they just appear randomly when I go to a different page on the site.

12
 
 

Maybe I'm not using it correctly but I'm hiving issues using the search functions to find communities. The community i was trying to find was the Reptiles and amphibians community on mander (https://mander.xyz/c/herpetology). I'm not sure how to sub otherwise. Cheers!

It might be useful for admins to know that the malware bytes browser extension blocks the site. Maybe they can submit a ticket?

Hi! So nice to not feel the weight of corporate oversight weighing down communication. It is a small thing, but so comfortable to click on a link from the main feed page, and have it open the post link in a new tab. Then, when I'm done, I can close the tab and be back on the main page feed. If it's here and I missed it, apologies. If it isn't, please take this as a requested feature, thank you!

I remember it was on the list of blocked instances, but now it's not,, and my page was just flooded with content from there - was that intentional?

Trying to better understand how federation works - from reddthat, I can't see the pine tree and Siberian hogweed posts in the screenshot. Both those users are from instances that we're federated with.

Is it time based? I only joined that community today, and those posts are from days ago.

Edit: some hours later, I can now see those posts posts from this instance 🥳

I saw this post about how kbin.social is now federating: https://reddthat.com/post/32223

When I click the example link provided there, [email protected] I get an error message.

404: couldnt_find_community

What am I doing wrong? I'd like to subscribe to some communities over there if possible.

When I make an account there's the checkbox that says "allow NSFW content" or something along those lines. I generally don't care, but it would be SUPER helpful to be able to switch it on and off and then refresh. For example - if browsing at work, or while out and about where people might see my screen, I don't wanna click something mindlessly and have tits/porn/blood/etc on my screen. If I could turn it on and off that'd be an awesome safety valve.

Whether I'm looking through the Communities or searching for something, hitting the Next button always seems to come up empty. I guess it could just be that there really isn't more than a single page worth of stuff, but it seems awfully suspicious. Is this a known bug?

21
 
 

I am trying to login at reddthat.com/login using both my email address and username - no dice, just a green spinny icon endlessly.

I've tried on my phone (duck browser) and on desktop chrome. Tried incognito mode - no change. Infact, I dont get any response even with known bad credentials.

In Devtools - I don't even see a call being made to the server.

I think Incognito rules out any plugins - any idea what might be up?

Hey Reddthat community,

Today I woke up to a very angry user who was the sole moderator of two communities here (c/gold and c/alchemy) who had reported a few posts and sent some PM's to a mod. (See screenshot, read from bottom to top)

Honestly, it hit us hard. Why would a user be so agressive against us? If they didn't want to see NSFW content they can hide in their profile, and unless we're mistaken it's hidden by default?

The mod team (currently just /u/reddthat and I) had a chat and thought about it. If a user PM'd any user with this type of abusive language we would immediately reprimand them. This is what we did.

So? I hear you say. Why are bothering to make this announcement?
This user clearly was under the wrong assumption about this instance, didn't know how to hide NSFW content, or has something against anime?

The question we want to ask our community are:

  • What would you have done in this situation?
  • What could we do to ensure no other users get the wrong idea?

We would like to get to know you all, work with you, and make it a place where everyone is welcome. We want to share memes that make us laugh, share images that excite us and find communities that make us feel at home. This user clearly did not understand that.

Tiff

Been trying to add [email protected] and have tried to be patient, but it’s still not showing up for me. Also having issues getting to some over at sh.itjust.works.

Seems like most instances have a lot of powermodding going on, ironically controlled by the same users, exactly the same problem as Reddit but this time worse since they can ban your whole account, lol.

Just wondering how to donate to Reddthat as I can’t seem to find any mention by clicking around. I’m guessing that all donations are going to be needed over the coming weeks in order to deal with the influx of users. Loving it so far!
