I mean, hell, if the right wing Dems separate from the progressives and join the less-crazy-than-maga centerish Republicans and they go play in corporate-funded Neverland that hopefully no sane voter would touch with a ten foot pole, a real progressive party might actually become a possibility. It’ll isolate the magats and push them back into a hole, we may get a more moderate conservative party that could be open to compromising again, and hopefully a coalition of real progressives can begin putting forward some much needed ideas.

The key will be ensuring that that progressive party is funded well enough to compete with the corporate money that is pumped by the truckload into that new coalition (which will be a feat in itself).

I dunno, just anything to get these fucking fleas out of our politics.

Maybe? Unless the mods migrate that community to a new instance, I’m guessing so. I’m wagering this is the first time a sizable instance has shut down, so it’d seem we’re all learning together.

I want to see these people sent to the gallows.

29 days away from reality is therapy.

There’s a tiny town in northern California called Downieville that my wife and I love to visit. It’s maybe 200 people, sits on the convergence of two decent sized rivers, and there is pretty much no cell service. Even just a week of sitting by that river is enough to fully recharge me and not want to break everything for at least 4 months.

Really just posts and comments. See I was under the impression that posts and comment threads copied across instances as well, but now I’m wondering if that’s not the case?

“…but the libs got pwnd.”

As a virgo, this tracks.

I don’t think that’s how it works though. I believe once the server shutdown, our old profiles vanished with it, aside from posts and comments made on other instances. I can search my old name (bobs_monkey@lemm.ee) and some stuff comes up, but clicking on my username results in an error.

It appears that while content federates across instances, posts and their associated comment threads are tied to that instance. If the instance shuts down, that post is gone.

Edit: so I can see that some users were able to move their profiles while retaining their [user]@lemm.ee, which becomes [newlemmyurl]/u/[user]@lemm.ee, so, shit. It also appears that communities were able to migrate in the same manner. It’s all good, too late now I suppose. Hopefully the lemme.ee admins have backups and someone can take up the mantle.

Wait really? I know there were tools to move subscriptions and whatnot, but I didn’t see anything about being able to move comments and posts across.

Much obliged. I’ve actually been here about 2 years since the Reddit API fiasco but was originally on lemm.ee, and well, yeah lol. I’d wager that’s the bulk of new accounts for the last few weeks.

Well damn, Jackie, I can’t control the weather

More data blobs then

Pretty big data point

The picture yeah, but I remember my dad and a lot of others had that same style of glasses (though with thinner frames) well into the mid 90s.

They want to set up $45b towards detention facilities, and by golly they’ll fill them. There’s a lot of gays, blacks, and liberals out there when they run out of latinos.
