Tesseract is great!

The downvotes are all coming from accounts on other instances, which as @ValueSubtracted@startrek.website suggested, makes us think it’s most likely people browsing “All” and not appreciating seeing twenty discussion posts (not that that justifies it).

Should be fixed now. Try it again (clear your cache first).

Ugh thanks for letting me know, does it happen every time you click it? And would you say the problem has been less frequent overall?

I think I might have fixed it, let me know if you encounter it again.

Any slowness should be gone by now, I haven’t seen the JSON thing happen to me yet, but I’ll look into it. Next time it happens to you can you DM me a screenshot?

There’s a Voyager theme? What instance? I’d love to add it here.

True, but if Meta (or anyone) wanted to “directly” get that data, it would be as trivial as setting up an instance on something as small as a Raspberry Pi and subscribing to a community here. We would have no way of knowing who it is or stopping them. Defederation is a tool to prevent brigading, not lurking.

If (if) Meta wanted to set a lemmy-style platform, preemptively defederating from it would be a largely symbolic gesture. Doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing, like I said we’ll cross that bridge if and when it becomes relevant.

The “user data” (comments, posts, votes, etc) that would be available to a hypothetical instance owned my Meta is already public for anyone, so not much we have control over there. “Defederating” essentially just means “blanket banning” a bunch of users at once.

We’re aware of the pact and will cross that bridge when (or if) it ever really happens. We’re certainly no fans of Meta (or Reddit,or Twitter). So far it seems more likely to affect Mastodon than Lemmy/Kbin.

Yes it was, BUT OUR TIME IS FINALLY NEAR 🎶🎸

The only perk we had in mind thus far was some user flair (whenever that inevitably gets invented). But you make a great point. Still getting used to this egalitarian perspective.

That’s a good point I hadn’t considered, appreciate the insight. As long as we can pay the bills with what comes in, I suppose for now we’ll just stick with what we’ve got.

Counselor, I am happy to read this… and yet I am crying. Perhaps my emotion chip is malfunctioning? (thank you so much🖖)
