At the moment I am away from a computer until next week and so it is difficult to troubleshoot the server. I am not sure why this is happening, I routinely make sure that the server has enough resources and made sure that there would be enough disk space for these weeks while I am away. It could be an intermittent problem with the server provider. Hopefully the issue resolved by itself by now.

Ahh, really?! Thanks for letting me know. I will see if there is something I can do to throttle that after holidays. Curious to see what solutions others come up with

Edit: I guess it’s these two are kind-of the same thing

Hello ✌️ 😄

Not intentional!

Took a bit of digging. The post was federated, but it showed up to me as “Removed by mod”:

Looking through the post’s moderation history, I find that the user was banned from community and then unbanned. I also see some removed posts from that same author to that same community around that same time.

My guess is that the most was removed by mod, then restored, but only the removal federated through and not the restore.

I have manually restored it, so you should be able to find it now: https://mander.xyz/post/977581/19535554

Ahh thanks! Great to go back to those days. Really miss recording that show.

The end of what? When I go to that video on Youtube I enter a continuous ‘live stream’ with no end.

Are the mods just going to sit there and do nothing while jared doxes me?!?!?!

That ‘every episode compilation’ is great! Skipped through it trying to find my appearance (no success yet) and found many skits I have never seen before.

Works flawlessly now :D Thank you again for your hard work!!

Thank you!

Thank you!!! Very happy about the moderation tools!

There is a problem opening community pages. I checked and the bug was introduced with this version.

Is the fact that I recognize this comment evidence that I use Lemmy a bit too much? 😅

Ah! I agree, that is a very likely candidate! Thanks!!

I am not sure as I did not test this one. Maybe you can go in person and get a worker to get you access to the kiosk through your account to print the card. It is one of those massive chains with gyms in every corner. I think that by now they rely on their digital infrastructure and many of their workers are not trained to handle uncommon situations. At least I get that from some of my experiences, but I could be wrong, maybe if I would have called them could have helped me with this. It was just easier to get the app into my old phone, print a card, delete the app.

I will also pay close attention and see if I can catch that happening.

I think that it works, but for it to work you need to enable Google Play services. From what I understand, this is done in a sandboxed manner simulating a fake identity, so it is possible to do this while isolating Google from your phone to an extent. But I think that WhatsApp is in itself problematic and one of the direct offenders that I want to avoid, regardless of its reliance on Google Play services, and so I have not gone through this effort myself.

I made the switch when I got a new phone. So I kept both the old phone with android and the new phone with GrapheneOS. There was a transition period when I would bring both phones with me, just in case. Now my old phone is my “whatsapp” phone which I keep at home and turn on rarely. During the transition period I used my old phone number whenever I needed to provide my phone to use a service, but eventually I transitioned that to a VoIP. But, even then, many services will reject VoIP phone numbers, so I still make use of the old one.

I had to request a special scanner from my bank because the banking apps do not work with GrapheneOS. And I had to make sure that nothing important goes into my gmail anymore because google would request that I used my old phone 2FA in the most inconvenient moments, and also I don’t want to access google from my GrapheneOS phone.

I think that there are many annoyances that can and probably will happen if you try to jump right into GrapheneOS after having previously relied in the google/meta ecosystem. If you attempt to switch too quickly you might inadvertently lose access to your bank, and you might become suddenly unable to communicate with family and friends. My government’s online identification system requires that I use their app, which runs on google services, so I still have to use my old phone for that. And I have encountered situations in which the only reasonably convenient way to proceed is to download an app. For example, recently I registered for a gym that would then require me to use their google-store app so that I could identify myself when purchasing a physical card.

I think we might see one or more “trusted fediverse” groups emerge in the next few years, with instance admins making commitments to security controls, moderation, code of conduct, etc.

There is now at least one system in place for admins to vouch for other instances being non-malicious, and to report suspected instances. It is called the fediseer: https://gui.fediseer.com/

Do you see a random nickname from a stranger, or a nickname of an account that was previously logged into using the same computer?

What is an open account sharing channel?

You can set up a personalized RSS feed with Feeder. It will take a bit of effort to set up, but you can create a feed that is very well tailored to your interests. You can get news feeds but also subscribe to other kinds of content, like scientific publications and financial statements.
