Started out on the fmhy.ml just prior to the .ml debacle. On lemmy.world now, but they have just started banning piracy communities. The new fmhy instance, of course, has already died before I got to try it.

sigh Married pasty male looking for lemmy instance that:

  • Has some decent uptime / Reliable / Not on a fly by night top level domain
  • Hates Nazi’s and doesn’t hesitate to ban, block and defederate such crap
  • Tolerant of piracy communities and federations
  • Oh, and will let me see comments in the Technology community. That isn’t working for me here.

Suggestions welcome.

      Even finding a community is janky. You search for it and it tells you there’s no community then you refresh and suddenly it’s there then you subscribe and it’s a bit random as to which posts and comments get federated and which never do.

          Oh I forgot they fixed that. It used to be you couldn’t access a new remote community any way other than the search. If you tried to access it directly it didn’t work at all. But I remember after one update that started to work.

      Also to note in, there are a few ‘subscriber bots’ out there on github to help a new instance get some seed communities out there. It can make the DB and loval storage swell like crazy but is nice when you don’t feel a need to manually sub to everything.
