lemmy.world has some but there are also two porn focused instances, lemmynsfw.com and pornlemmy.com. Both federate with lemmy.world, you can use this tool to find communities and sub and interact with both instances from lemmy.world or sign up to each one/either one since they both interact with one another.
Cautiously optimistic. His community and comments tends to be a mixed bag.
They might have implied as such (I don't personally think they did, but such an observation is objective.), but I myself didn't in the post above, and to say I did is dishonest. For the record, I believe they did what they had to do with the limited options they currently have. And I did not like it. Hence why I made an account on here as well. It's not a fascist regime, and I was pointing out the fact that the people acting like it is are being ridiculous. I directly witnessed the reasons why they defederated and quite ironically, an immense rise of interactions escalating precisely like this causing issues in their own communities and limited staffing to address such (especially towards the vulnerable minority communities beehaw wants to protect in ways reddit did not) in a short amount of time is quite exactly why they chose to defederate. Have a lovely day.
Where did I say it was unsafe? I was pointing out the dishonesty people have been showing in regards to discussing the reason why beehaw chose to defederate.
They defederated with the some of the largest instances that have open registration due to the influx of people causing issues in their own communities and the lack of mod tools to address the issue. People are still pissy about it despite beehaw admins stating they will lift the defederation once lemmy mod tools improve…
Freedom of speech with consequences?
Heya! It's gabe here. The database is 100% restorable, so we will be back sometime. Hopefully sooner rather than later. It's just been a hell of a time trying to wrangle the instance back online for so many reasons. Each reason just getting more annoying than that last. Doesn't help I've likely been getting sick off and on all week and had a headache and a fever today. I don't know if the VM was actually hacked or if it was the VPS provider being fucky (probably the VPS hosting provider, they were going up and down like a bouncy ball all week) but I will make a more explaining post as to what exactly happened with the limited info I have. I basically logged in and UFW and fail2ban were simply uninstalled and logs were basically showing nonstop VPS up and down time and I completely panicked. I'm treating it as it if was a hack just to be safe and locking as much as I can down further, but it's been extra frustrating due to catching what is likely some sort of illness this past week long. At this point the only thing that's needed from people is just do the usual and change passwords if you used the same password on there as other sites and to be extra safe changing your password when we go back online. I am setting up with a different hosting provider this time and trying my best to fix things back up. I have others I am troubleshooting it with at least.
I honestly feel really shitty about all of it. Not as awful and personally hurt as before, but it still sucks so much and I'm hoping to bring it back up this weekend at the very latest. I'm really sorry :(
