I found it amusing when, in response to an issue, the admin asked someone to open a ticket by sending it to [email protected]. At first I thought he meant to DM the account, but then I was like Ohhh, you mean actually send an e-mail to that address. I can totally see people confusing the two concepts.

Did you read the bill? This is in the first paragraph.

I ran into something similar on Linux Mint. Never seen my installation kill itself before until this. Ended up booting into Recovery mode from the grub menu, and rolled back using Timeshift restore.

For me, the culprit was the ubuntu-drivers-common update, because after I rolled back, I was able to install all the other updates without issue. I just blacklisted this one update to keep it from showing until the next version is released.

Ah, the Pinterest strategy. Nothing makes me hit the back button or skip search results faster than a login prompt.

I wonder if this is just a ploy to increase their "active user" counts to improve their valuation.

According to the ionos api documentation, the API key is formatted as publicprefix.secret

Is that how you entered it in your config?

I recall reading the DT8 has poor water resistance. That really turned me off from buying one, despite it having some interesting features that appealed to me.

I get that it's very similar to subreddits going private, and that we have no control over that when it happens. I just find it very disruptive to lose 1/3 of my communities all at once due these events.

The draw of the fediverse is all this interconnectedness. But with people being so divisive these days, it just feels like the end will be siloed walled gardens everywhere. If I need a dozen logins to participate in the communities I want, it just defeats the whole purpose, and we might as well go back to old school single-topic forums.

I used an extreme example, but it's not always that obvious that you're on a server that's going to offend the wrong instance admin. Some don't want to associate with porn, others "tankies". In this case, lemmy.world's offense was simply being "too big".

I get that a lot of redditors are used to creating alts and throwaway accounts. I just don't want to have to do that constantly as a workaround for communities disappearing from my feed due to defederation.
