  • Okay, I have to come clean about this. I haven’t opened lemmy.ml for over a month at least and everybody has to be curious about why my instance is down.

    I did several screw-ups and accidentally deleted the instance from my server. Luckily I had made database backups beforehand. Now I have faced several problems regarding reinstallation and restoring the backups. I have been in a kind of hurry because of job searching and several other things.

    Regardless, I’m not burying Sopuli.xyz and I’m not having a Hetzner VPS for nothing. If this means starting from scratch, so be it.





































  • I could imagine a situation where someone makes low-effort memes, reposts or something that fits Reddit’s monoculture, gaining that 20k positive karma. That person may not comment much and the comments may be low-effort. Where’s the maturity and legitimacy here?

    That’s great - isn’t that exactly the ‘social score’ implemented in China? Yikes.

    Reddit’s biggest investors are Chinese so this is just fitting.
