Yeah, I have a feeling that this is the case with my server. It does seem to be communities that I was already subscribed to having issues subscribing again.

Is there a process to undead an instance? I'm just saying that as I wiped my server a few weeks ago and created a new lemmy server from scratch with the same domain/details etc... I'm posting from it now so it kind of works I guess but will I be missing anything?

Just asking as I did exactly that and it kind of seems like it works? I would have thought there would have been some kind of checksum/key etc...

The only issue I'm really running into is that it says subscribe pending on some communities when I try to subscribe but I'm assuming that's due to being overloaded etc...

Is there anything major that I'm overlooking?

Note: The server is personal so hijacking existing usernames isn't an issue but I'm assuming it would be if it was populated?

Critters or Ghoulies? Never watched the latter but the vhs tape cover had one coming out of the toilet:

My dad got me a poster of mogwai after watching the movie and attached it on the ceiling directly above my bed. Sure, he was the friendly one but fuck that shit! 10/10 dad humour.

In its defence, many scared stoners were also casualties of that movie.

Me watching Event Horizon… wow, a cool new sci-fi movie…. Then wtf?…… Great movie though.

I’m using it since doing the opposite and it works great on iOS. Not sure if it was different a while ago but you can set it as your auto fill password manager.

What, no Atari Lynx?

Same! I pay nearly double what I was paying for 100mbps but it’s worth it. As soon as the service was enabled in my building I signed up straight away. In the same place 3 years ago I was only getting 14mbps as my only option!

Agreed that close helps in general but 200-300ms isn't really that noticeable unless it's something where latency is important. I'm also surprised that some of the larger instances aren't using Cloudflare for caching. If things like images etc... are cached all over the world then I doubt anyone would notice any speed issues.

Close to you? I’m running my own instance in France and I live in Australia. It works great. The problem is overloaded instances.

[-] FunkyClown@lemmy.fail 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Exactly. In Australia by law they had to block certain websites. All they did was block it via their own dns servers as it’s easy and cheap. All you have to do is use google/Cloudflare etc… for your dns and it works fine. They only care if you get complaints/legal stuff.
