  • I was thinking it’s only spam servers, but it might actually just be downtime for hetzner or something.

    Instances do not get banned on lemmy. You can run any kind of an instance.

    That said, part of this could be providers pruning “fake customers”, aka spammers, scammers, etc, who “paid” for their servers with stolen CC and SSN.

    Edit: Someone up to making an uptime map for Lemmy, placing servers on a map based on where they report originating at? This could help seeing if a specific datacenter has downtime.



  • You can care about people as a proxy of doing PR over the thing you like to do.

    Not saying he’s an asshole or anything; people just need to stop having these weird as fuck personal relationships with online personalities whom they don’t even actually know.

    But yeah, Linus used to care more, but it was years ago when he started saying he’ll stop being CEO soon. Started piling up from back then to where it is now.

    Tl;dr: frustrations, inability to do the thing he wanted, high commercial pressure, family, impulsiveness (New houses, new cars, new projects while there were multiple still in progress or not even started), etc. Lost sight of what he was doing, and what he wanted.

    Maybe that’ll slowly improve with new CEO, and the projects he started finishing.





  • Mate, you should never think an online influencer/store is on your side. They’re not.

    Not even Steve from Gamer’s Nexus is your friend.

    Can you still practice safe exchange with them? Yes, just be informed of your rights.

    Edit/addition: Didn’t check the link. Thought this was about the last drama.

    This addresses new issues, and it’s important to solve those issues.

    I feel like when Linus was still CEO, he made too many choices too fast, and that’s caused the situation LMG is in now.

    They have to rush content to get bills paid in time.

    An extremely impulsive CEO is never good.
