Has it been more than a couple of days? I think the webfinger certificates are kept for 24 hours or something like that, so any changes in the certificate associated with your old user (used for signing updates) will take some time to expire and then update.
So, it'll still take a little while before it settles down, but I've seen other people in the admin chat do the same thing and it eventually recovered.
As for the subscriptions, part of the problem is the remote instance thinks you're already subscribed. I think if you unsubscribe and resubscribe it may go through, but you may also just need to use a new account name.
Thanks. Odd though that my original post (via the KNova@links.dartboard.social account) did not federate out. I’m not too worried about it as long as this second account works, but I would really like to know why it broke
Any chance it’s an nsfw community, and your account isn’t set to see that? Some of ours are NSFW by default, to blur the pictures in the general feed, and I’ve had this issue.
That’s what happens to me as well! I did a websearch for “lemmy defederation status” or something like that, and no defederation has happened between the two, in neither direction!
Follow up: lemmy.ml modlog says they removed pc master race community (which I just learn it’s not defederation), meaning we need a different account to access it
No idea why I didn’t think about checking lemmy.ml modlog, so thanks! Problem solved! Now I realize I had misunderstood defederation haha thanks again, guess I’ll make a second account on .world
You’re welcome. I think there should be a better way to communicate a removed or banned community. Maybe like a “removed/banned community for X reason” sign instead of the “community_not_found” error page.
I really hope Lemmy hasn’t caught the censorship virus. There’s a certain acceptable amount due to the tolerance paradox, but your article doesn’t apply there.
How’s that one quote go? any world view that relies on the consistent silencing of another is inherently flawed? Something like that.
I wouldn’t say odd so much as “inconsiderate” and “petty”. The modlog of the community I was posting to showed zero removals or problems. It was the modlog of the instance as a whole. So it wasn’t even easy to find in the first place. Top that off with wildly inconsistent meanings of the rules. Their rule 1 is “Don’t be bigoted/racist/sexist/etc”. Hilarious given they removed an anti-homophobia post for that. They removed another post where the meme was “If you don’t respond my trans homies I’ll change your pronouns to was/were”. That was removed for rule 2. To “Be respectful.”
The extreme lack of communication by moderation, the lack of warnings, the lack of any consistency, and the hypocrisy is beyond rank. When you’re removing posts protecting trans people because it’s “Not respectful” or when you’re removing posts shaming Disney for homophobia then it only goes to show how utterly repugnant, backwards, backhanded, nonsensical, and dishonest the moderation and admins teams are on lemmy.ml.
This is the last comment I’m ever making on this instance. You’ll never see my main account here again or this account ever be used again. I don’t trust the people here. Especially when doing some research and it seems that lemmy.ml got co-opted by lemmygrad and is slowly turning into hexbear 2.0.
I go out of my way to be polite, kind, considerate and to listen to others. If someone had an issue and they wanted to talk then I’d be here. The mods and admins never did that. Never even thought of doing it. That is some wildly reddit behavior and it’s specifically what I left reddit to avoid. It’s also what I’ll be avoiding at all possible costs on lemmy.
If the article mentioned babies with their heads chopped off it could be a disinformation thing? Supposedly that story has been circulated with zero fact check and only one source, who has made previous online comments basically in favor of a Palestine genocide.
From a theory perspective alone, ignorant of Lemmy specifics: a database query can be made to list all cached images including a unique identifier for each image. Use this list to find each cached image.
Look at your cached image list and decide how you want to prune it. The most likely pattern for this system is FIFO, so prune the oldest cached data until you drop below the target disk usage.
In practice, you’ll likely use somebody else’s solution. Be sure to read the contents of their solution carefully to ensure it doesn’t move sensitive data to an externally accessible location or exfiltrate data directly.
