Moving usmlr community to lemmy.world

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/2322235

> I've decided to move the community to !usmlr@lemmy.world, for several reasons: > > - The stated focus of lemmy.ml is "A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts," and this community doesn't fit that description > - There is uncertainty around the .ml domain, with the government of Mali taking control of the domain away from the Freenom registrar, and the fmhy.ml lemmy instance losing their domain > - I originally created the community on lemmy.ml because beehaw.org was deferating from popular servers, but the majority of active users in this community so far are on either lemmy.world or sh.itjust.works (both deferedated by beehaw) and even making posts here with a lemmy.ml account beehaw is just not getting new content, and appears to only have one subscriber (which I believe is probably just my own beehaw account). > > I have set [the lemmy.ml] community to only allow moderators to post, so please sub over on lemmy.world and I'll see you there!

Why does this community need '@lemmy.ml' even locally?
  • fantastic, thanks. I don't think I ever would have found that myself. Doesn't appear to be the case that the automatic DB check is in v0.18 though, as it still fails on https://enterprise.lemmy.ml/c/usmlr.

  • Why does this community need '@lemmy.ml' even locally?
  • Any idea what it is about the community that is triggering the bug? I see other communities are working just fine.

    lemmy.ml Major League Rugby - Lemmy

    Community to discuss US Major League Rugby [https://www.majorleague.rugby/]. Schedule [https://www.majorleague.rugby/schedules/] Standings [https://www.majorleague.rugby/schedules/] The Rugby Network [https://therugbynetwork.com] 1. No spoilers!

    Major League Rugby - Lemmy

    Going to https://lemmy.ml/c/usmlr gives a 404, but https://lemmy.ml/c/usmlr@lemmy.ml works.

    There's also quite a bit of lag in federation, with most other instances not even having the last changes I made to the description. Only lemmy.world does, but I also moderated and post in the community from that instance, so that may be why.

    • https://lemmy.world/c/usmlr@lemmy.ml/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
    • https://beehaw.org/c/usmlr@lemmy.ml/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
    • https://lemmy.one/c/usmlr@lemmy.ml/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
    • https://sh.itjust.works/c/usmlr@lemmy.ml
    • https://kbin.social/m/usmlr@lemmy.ml/newest

    I would assume beehaw simply won't receive the posts I make from my lemmy.world account, because defederation.

    Crossposting support federated communities

    I made a post in !guitar@lemmy.studio from here on lemmy.ml, and then wanted to crosspost it to !guitars@lemmy.world (again, from here on lemmy.ml). When I clicked on the cross-post button in the original post, nothing I typed in the Community field seemed to pop up as a match for the desired federated community to cross-post to.

    !

    So I simply copied the URL, Title, and Body of the original post, but added [Crosspost] in the Title, and Crossposted from ... in the body with a lemmy.ml link to the original, and blockquoted the copied body text.

    Original - https://lemmy.ml/post/1178638 Crossposted - https://lemmy.ml/post/1207214

    If you look at them both, you will see these little tidbits

    Original !

    Crosspost !

    So .. it did actually get recorded in the back-end as a cross-post, even though the front-end didn't look like it was possible. So is this a UI bug that you can't select a federated community as the destination of a crosspost? Was it the inclusion of Crossposted from <lemmy.ml link to original> that made it identify as a crosspost?

    Republicans set lose multiple seats due to Supreme Court ruling
  • Yeah, they're getting increasingly brazen with their rhetoric.

  • Looking for cool communities?
  • Guitar --> !guitar@lemmy.studio
    US Major League Rugby --> !usmlr@lemmy.ml

  • Republicans set lose multiple seats due to Supreme Court ruling
  • Looks like 5 seats could end up becoming Democratic, which would mean an even split of 217 seats each.

    The school drop off/pickup thing is the most carbrained thing I've ever seen
  • Due to people's habit of voting against funding school districts here, there isn't enough funding for all children to be on the bus (ie paying enough drivers). So the busses are reserved for children who live farther. If you live within a certain radius of the school you can pay extra to put your children on the bus.

  • Do your part, try not to lurk!
  • I thought Rogers was strictly Canadian, but you moderate Houston Texans community?

  • Trump lawyers quit classified documents case
  • Of course his lawyer was named Jim Trusty.😆 Reality is just too full of onions anymore.

    New guitar community on music-focused instance lemmy.studio

    Hey there! @beto@lemmy.studio setup a Music-focused instance, and created !guitar@lemmy.studio over there. Given the pinned post on the front page here requesting new users register on a different instance, I figured it would be good to cross-promote this new community here too.

    I like this significantly better than Mastodon
  • You can follow hashtags on Mastodon. You can also follow Lemmy communities from Mastodon! Search @<community>@<instance> (ie @fediverse@lemmy.ml)

  • Embed remote images?
  • Thanks! I was unaware of that markdown syntax.

    Embed remote images?

    To help keep hosting costs down I want to link to remote images instead of uploading them. But I also want them to be rendered inline/embedded in the post. At least from Jerboa client I don't see a way to do that.

    As a community owner/mod, how do I approve a follow from a Mastodon user?
  • No worries, it was still a useful answer as an instance admin might find the post.

  • As a community owner/mod, how do I approve a follow from a Mastodon user?
  • Thanks, but I'm just a user here on lemmy.ml, so I don't have access to that. If it's not exposed in the UI at all I'll open an issue over in GitHub.

  • As a community owner/mod, how do I approve a follow from a Mastodon user?
  • Also, as a mod, how can I see who are the subscribers to the community?

    I created a community here, and then tried to follow it from my Mastodon account. On Mastodon it says the follow request is pending approval. But I don't see any way to approve it from here on lemmy.ml. Any suggestions?

    perfect/near perfect albums
  • The Black Crowes - Southern Harmony Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream

    Honorable mention

    The Black Keys - Thickfreakness The White Stripes - Icky Thump CeeLo Green - The Lady Killer

    I have very little concept of what songs are from which albums anymore thanks to modern streaming subscriptions.

  • What is your favourite 3rd party Lemmy client?
  • I think there's just been a lot of growing pains with beehaw and lemmy.ml seeing way more traffic from new users. Their servers are going down under the load and that results in weird errors in the clients and web, and I'm assuming federation issues too.
