So i'd read the rest of the posts to my message. It seems that you can still see the page, but an archived page that's cached on the beehaw server. New posts won't be seen.
The problem seems to be that people from defederated instances can still comment on those communities. The community itself won't see it, but others will. So you could theoretically make a community that's been defederated from you look bad by posting offensive content.
Huge issue
Wow. Yeah this seems like big oversight
I haven't touched SourceMage in over a decade, but I loved how the terminology made it feel like you're a wizard casting spells to build up everything.
I could never get it working 100% but if I can find a good burner laptop I might just have to give it a go again.
Well I was worried, but I can still access the communities I'm subscribed to from those instances so I can appreciate this more.
My biggest issue with Reddit has been the lack of nuanced discussion. Everything is just black or white. If we can keep that element out of this instance I'll be happy.
I'm trying to finish Yakuza 0. But christ this game is long. If the rest of the series is this bad I might have to pass on it. Great game but just...too much of everything.
So Debian (broadly) has three main versions. Stable, Testing, and Unstable (sid). Since you are waiting for a stable release, I'm assuming that's where you'll stay.
The one thing to know is that you are entering a very different kind of Linux environment than Mint and Manjaro. When Debian means stable, they mean it. It is rock steady....but it also means you'll be outdated when it comes to features. The only updates you will get are going to be stability and security based. And that's for the life of that OS version. So if you desperately need to update something for a new feature, you'll need to learn backports.
Honestly, I love it (apart from on my gaming rig). It's the OS I install on people's machines that just want a no fuss, easy to use OS, that won't crash or glitch out.
