I'm a bit worried. Since the upgrade to 0.19.0 I have been getting 1 on all my comments. Indicating either my normal engaging personality has left me, I never was and the pity has stopped, or maybe I'm not being seen.

Tommy can you hear me? Can you feel me near you?

Tommy can you see me? Can I help to cheer you?

The one we can't see. You know, the one right up there.

Here's the copy of all the text I can't see:



Hope that helps.

Weird, I see "hunter2" in between the lines.

The one you were just playing. The one inside your rusty innards thwack.

Could you type a little louder? I can't smell this comment at all.

You get a reply just because it's the quality of your post

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I'd have been happy with a down vote or anything. I even tried a more controversial take to see if I could get kicked to the curb. Nothing worked. I was just being ignored.

It was like being back in high school again.

There’s a bug on v0.19 that is affecting outgoing federation. I believe it’s fixed on v0.19.1.

Relax.

I’d like some information first….

Just the basic facts

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

Can you show me where it hurts?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 10 months ago (1 children)

New phone, who’s this?

All of lemmy seems to have slowed down massively. The "active" sort shows the same posts for days in a row, and the "hot" sort is now as slow as "active" was before (same posts for a couple of hours to a day at most).

It really seems like there are like 80% less active users than just a few weeks ago.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (2 children)

It's the holidays. And the strike is over, I have work and can't spend that much time shitposting on social media anymore.

Probably because people are leaving due to the extreme lack of niche content and the same armchair activist bullshit constantly taking up the feed and comments sections.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

You don't like Lemmy's reposting of Reddit's reposting of Xitter?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

people are leaving due to the extreme lack of niche content

Gotta get active and be a creator for such content yourself then, eh? To raise possibilities to get other actives around while at it.

armchair activist bullshit constantly taking up the feed and comments sections.

I encourage to ignore or block communities/users/whatnot that don't add any content to your interest or cause harm for ya.

I have become comfortably numb.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Uh, had a slight weapons malfunction. But, uh, everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Boring conversation anyway. We're gonna have company!

Relax, I'll need some information first, just the basic facts, can you t show* me where it hurts?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Just hijacking your post and concern to say that I love the cover version of Comfortably Numb by Scissor Sisters. If you are Pink Floyd purists, don't even bother.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

I’m a huge Pink Floyd fan and I also love the Scissor sisters version. And I normally don’t like many covers of songs at all. I think there’s just something special about that one for me.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I've noticed the same, but when I check other instances, it seems like all my comments and posts still arrive at the other servers. I think it's just that most Lemmings are busy preparing for Christmas.

0.19.1 is out, that did fix at least one bug related to the ActivityPub endpoints.

The only one-comment post in your history for the past week or two is let it snow.

I had similar problems, and also had read posts stay on my feed. v0.91.1 came out yesterday, and seems to have addressed a few issues for me.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Funnily enough I've also noticed that my comments on Lemmy.ml have only been getting 1 point in the last week. Probably because they're not interesting enough but since you mentioned it...

Interesting, I've swapped to scale sort and everything seems a lot more active

hunter2? That's the kind of password an idiot would have on their luggage!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Did you mean to comment on this post? Because I really don't understand the reference you're making. I'm thoroughly confused.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 months ago

It was probably meant for this comment.

Here's where hunter2 comes from:

 hey, if you type in your pw, it will show as stars
 ********* see!
 hunter2
 doesnt look like stars to me
  *******
 thats what I see
 oh, really?
 Absolutely

It was very quiet for a bit. The update screwed federation, but my instance updated to 0.19.1 and posts are showing up again.

I've heard you can get banned from an instance other than your own and it isn't obvious it's happened, not sure how common that is or how to tell
