Thank you! This has been driving me crazy. You are a hero.

I can't even find a place on lemm.ee, using my browser, that would let me paste an arbitrary community path.

I always see the lemmyverse site recommended, but I have trouble subscribing to any community I find on there. If you click on a link on that site, it takes you to that instance. But you need an account on that instance to push the "subscribe" button. I can't figure out a way to subscribe to, say, lemmy.world/c/technology when my account is on lemm.ee

Thanks for the link. How many days does this event last?

If you are comfortable with using command line stuff, I found this little Python script perfect for my needs. I copied my subscriptions from my original instance to two others:

https://github.com/wescode/lemmy_migrate

I don't know enough programming to know whether the tool could be stealing my authentication, but my passwords are random and I don't really care if anything happens to those.

Edit: You have to run this when the servers are actually functioning. I was migrating my stuff away from my lemmy.world account because of the overloading there, and the server was pretty slow while it was copying my subscriptions. I ran it again an hour later and it picked up the few subscriptions it missed on the first pass. It's smart enough to check if the new server has a particular community subscription already in place.

Yes, and during the day before a colonoscopy you will become super Einstein - based on the amount of time you spend on the toilet.

Are the sites with other top level domains like archive.is the same company? I've seen requests to donate to various Archive sites but I can tell if they are all the same company.

I would like to see Jimmy Wales run Twitter and Reddit clones. If there is anyone that you can trust to not turn a website into a commercial entity, it's the guy running one of the world's most visited site with no advertising.

Maybe Wikimedia can host Mastodon and Lemmy server.

Either him or the guy who runs Craigslist, with no obvious intentions of trying to wring money out his site

If that's your dumbest idea, you are undervalued wherever you work. That sounds like a pretty interesting idea.

I'm assuming this doesn't involve intra-military emails, because that would be trivial to prevent. It's probably because of people sending from another domain. Like if maverick@gmail.com is sending an email to iceman@navy.mil, but he mistypes the .mil part because he is using his iPhone while riding his motorcycle with a girl on the back.

A more realistic example would be ceo@lockheed.com sending an email to commander@af.mil to discuss some upcoming meeting about a new aircraft contract.

I bounce between my several installed Lemmy apps whenever one of them locks up :)

I'm a little confused about a comment in the article that says the Mali military will be taking over the .ml domain on Monday. Is the country of Mali going to start using a different domain next week?
