Could you please add !52weeksofart@lemmy.world to your art list?

[-] Sergio@slrpnk.net 4 points 3 weeks ago

Ok done!

[-] rulray@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

!boardgames@sopuli.xyz has only one post from over a year ago, I'm no sure that can be called active.

Edit: my language settings were wrong, see comment below.

[-] Grimy@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Maybe a bug? Last post was 60 minutes ago.

[-] rulray@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

Aha, solved it, I hadn't selected English in languages setting, so it was hiding everything. Thank you for pointing it out.

[-] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

Oof, wouldn't that have been hiding a huge number of posts from your feed? Lemmy must have seemed really quiet

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

I posted about this on !youshouldknow@lemmy.world, seems like quite a few new joiners are having the issue

[-] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Yes, I'm the top comment in there πŸ˜‚

[-] rulray@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, it was me xD But there's something going on, i can't see any reply, even after I got the notifications.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 weeks ago

@otter@lemmy.ca could you maybe pin this post to the community? That was it's more visible for people visiting

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

Good call, pinned!

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 5 days ago

Hello @otter@lemmy.ca,

Sorry to bother you again, but it seems like the pin gets reset everyday? I pinned it yesterday, and it's unpinned again on other instances:

Not sure what is happening here, but I don't have the same issue on !movies@lemm.ee for instance

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 days ago

It's odd that something is causing it to be unpinned afterwards. Is it unpinned everywhere that you've checked, or those instances in particular?

I'll pass this along to the others

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 days ago

Everywhere I checked. Also, the pin actions don't seem to federate:

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Odd, I'll see if we can figure out what might be happening

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 days ago

Thanks!

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

Seems like it didn't pin on lemm.ee: https://lemm.ee/c/communitypromo@lemmy.ca πŸ€”

Could you may try to unpin/repin it?

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago

Odd, I guess pins still don't federate consistently?

Did it a few times, and it looks like it's pinned there now :)

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Good!

Reminds of that classic GIF: https://giphy.com/gifs/css-13FrpeVH09Zrb2

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago

If it works, it works πŸ˜„

[-] Blaze@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago

Hello @otter@lemmy.ca ,

Seems like it's not working anymore, for instance

Would you mind making me a mod with this account? That way I can try to fix this without bothering you every time :)

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yea totally, not sure why I didn't do that sooner

[-] Blaze@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 weeks ago

Great, thanks!

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Alright, just did it, seems to work now!

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

Perfect, thanks! I'll revisit the post from time to time

[-] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I'm the mod at !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world

I created !Dullsters@dullsters.net as a fun project. Same content, new address. Dull mens club will remain active.

[-] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

Again what’s the point of movies and moviesandshows?

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

!movies@lemm.ee is movies.

!showsandmovies@lemm.ee is about TV shows. Name is unfortunate, but it comes from a time where we had both content on the same communities, they are now split. The display name has been changed to "Shows and TV"
