Ahh, this is really sad. Lemm.ee was always an instance that shined brightly, and @sunaurus@lemm.ee has helped me out a couple of times.

Sad day indeed.

A perfectly reasonable language. None of this Gen Z rubbish.

Something something better times. Shakes stick at sky.

The other half lied.

"Oi, 'scuse me mate, have you got a wank loicence for that file system?"

Keep it up db0, a lot of us across the fediverse appreciate what you've built!

Yes, that's the beauty of federation and the stupidity of the law :)

I take it you're not going to invest then? One extra NFT for me!

The communities discuss piracy, not host the content. They are two different things.

The user that requested it was a troll account create dhours before. The same user then went on to create a transphobic community and post hate. Not the sort of person the admins should be knee jerking to.

This incorrectly lists Lemmy.zip as federated - we've been defederated for months.

I dont think this site is accurate.

Please don't let it be shit.

Season 8 ended perfectly (there is no season 9).

How you come back so long later and keep it fresh, I don't know. I just hope they can pull it off.

I will try and reply to each comment - but you've all been really kind and that means so much ❤️

If you're interested, this graph will show you how far behind we are. We should eventually catch up, but things will likely be very delayed for up to 12 hours.

The status page did not work as expected - and I'll try and link a few more places where I post updates. If you haven't yet, definitely join the matrix space and you'll get minute by minute panic updates 🫠

Wow, that's amazing 🥲

My dad taught me to be a freak in the sheets.

Excel sheets, to be precise.

Ah good, what everyone said would happen is exactly what is happening.

Sure its not the data verification company directly, but proves that the whole process is so sufficiently complex that your ID could end up with multiple different providers and then be stolen. Not great.

Just a couple of quick answers to potential questions.

• Will this affect federation? No - even sites in the UK will still be able to federate with Lemmy.zip both ways. This just affects users trying to access the lemmy.zip website

• Does this affect apps? Possibly - the front ends will definitely be affected (i.e. m.lemmy.zip). Apps like voyager etc remains to be seen, as I haven't done any testing on these yet.

They're not dodgy links.

I'd like to think hard enough that it's a different sound guy every show

And yet they insist on keeping registrations open and tarnishing the lemmy name with their shit uptime and terrible, terrible decisions like this. Fuck them.

🔴 The Button Has Ended 🔴

Thank you to all that played :)

The Button may be back in the future!

PS yes those banners are way too big and no, I'm not going to fix them this month as I am just that lazy.
