I agree, I'm just answering the why question. Free software licenses don't have non-commercial clauses and they want an NC clause.
I presume the reason they didn't use GPL3 is because they wanted the attribution and non-commercial clauses offered by CC-BY-NC.
Not suggesting that they should not prefer to drop those clauses in favour of a copyleft free software licence. but you asked "why not" and losing those clauses is clearly an obvious candidate for why they might not want to.
Let's not get in the habit of posting promotional posts every day. I'm not sure what the limit should be but twice in as many days already feels too frequent. I'll leave this up today but I'll remove any more from you that come in the next 7 days. Once or twice per week seems a reasonable frequency as a starting place.
https://lemmyverse.net/ is the most complete list you're likely to find since it uses a crawler to find federated instances and their communities from an initial seed list of known instances. So unless an instance is defederated from all of the instances in their seed list then it should appear on there. It also counts subscriber numbers, etc. as a sum across all the instances it finds, which should give a sense of where the majority of the community are gathered if there are duplicates.
Yep, inverse left-hand row stagger counts. Katana60 and µTron style.
It's not really a bug, per say. 429 is the HTTP statuscode for "Too Many Requests", i.e. The API is not serving the request due to it hitting the rate limit (for the free tier in this instance). RIF is accurately displaying the status it's getting from the reddit API.
If the fix is applied, does it break again if a remote mod makes a change again? Or is it a one-time fix?
Do toy have a link to the bug report for this bug so I can track it and/or help. That's a pretty major bug given the recent influx of users (myself included). I just broke my community by doing this exact thing.
Keep an eye on them, they drop new stuff semi-regularly. It's all handmade so not constantly fully stocked.
