I logged in about 3 hours ago and was browsing Lemmy.ml. While looking around, I got suddenly logged out. I pressed "Log in" and it immediately logs me back in and on the top right, my username was "Unwarlike".

I can only assume this was someone else's account and the app messed something up.

I pressed logout and then logged back in and it went back to normal.

I think there are a few bugs that need ironing our in lemmy's codebase.

The more people there are in the instance your account is with, the more issues Jerboa has.

Yeah. What an horrific threat that was, right?

Fucking reddit and /u/spez, specifically, being spineless.

but wouldn’t that cause conflicts?

No. There is a !gaming@lemmy.ml and a !gaming@beehaw.org.

Each community is suffixed by the instanced they are hosted in. So if the mods of one community are shitbags or the rules made a community a shit abyss, just use the same community of another instance that you feel is better.

admins are desperately hoping people start signing up to other instances

I did that and here I mentioned why I couldn't realistically do it.

#Reddit was already toxic

I got banned for replying to a racist comment in sarcasm, to make them see how racist the comment is.

I got banned for racism...

Fuck reddit really.

I expect good and insightful conversations to be moved here.

Reddit is about to become like twitter and facebook where it's ad-ridden, toxicity cesspool.

People will leave to keep having the actual forum experience and will eventually move here as it looks like a very good alternative.

Should I make a post as well? Would that help?

Νο. The only reason a post needs to be there is because the mod actions are only visible to an admin/moderator by clicking the 3 dots on a user(to open options) and they need the user that wants to get it, to have a post there, so that the admin can give them permission(s).

Give them 24h and if nothing happens, then let’s insist!

Yeah that's what I've done already. My previous request was up for 2 days, some posts that were posted after mine, got answered but since mine went unnoticed, I delete my old one and reposted it in hopes of getting a resolution.

Unfortunately this is the 2nd time I am posting this request in here, after making sure to delete the old one to avoid spamming, but this community needs to be revived. Unfortunately I haven't had any response so far, possibly due to the huge influx of users in the instance, but I can't help but notice other requests that were posted after mine and have been resolved.

I tried creating a new /c/greece in another instance but they way federation and indexing works, it will be invisible to most users. This user explained how searching for communities works and it looks like there is a slight barrier to entry currently.

If I read it correctly Christian(Apollo Dev) made ~$500.000 for this year by having 50.000 people get the $10 subscription. The problem is that now, since on the 6th month of the year he is forced to shut it down, he has to refund these people for the rest of the money(so ~$250.000).

From what I understand though, the problem is that Reddit doesn't want to lose revenue from 3rd party apps avoiding adds, so in this section, from Christian's own recording(which is legal in Canada) he mentions that Apollo is costing $20m/year and that's what Reddit is after.

I don't even think you can create communities in another instance. I can see the button to do it only for your current instance so yes, you would need to create an account over there and then create the community.
