  • 2FA has been restored for all LW users that had it enabled before and didn't reactivate it on their own since.

    There will be an announcement posted later on explaining what happened.

  • this is a separate issue unrelated to the 0.19 update.

  • this was not a Lemmy bug.

  • This was unfortunately an error on our end.

    Please bear with us while we work on resolving this situation.

  • deleting a community: right side, click the trash icon:

    communities disappearing from your subscribed list typically mean that you have been banned from that community.

    subscribe pending can have different reasons. it might be that this includes getting banned from an instance, but it can also be the result of some other technical issues.

  • Hi,

    this should be fixed now. We had to implement some measures due to an hour of DDoS last night.

  • It does indeed seem to have been an issue with loading metadata for the image at the time.

    I'm not sure if sdf pict-rs was slow at the time or what was causing it at this point, but Lemmy cut it off after 9 seconds of processing the post and that's where it failed. Unfortunately the logs don't give a reason currently.

    If you remove your vote on the post and restore it after a minute it will likely trigger it to get processed properly, although this is obviously not a usable solution.

    We'll have to look into if we can improve this somehow.

  • Us not upgrading has nothing to do with making a point.

    We're aiming to run a stable instance, which can come at the cost of delayed updates.

    We didn't update to 0.19.4, and a few weeks later 0.19.5 was released with a number of critical bugfixes.

    0.19.6 will have several more fixes for issues introduced in 0.19.4+, such as a fix for remote moderators updating local communities, allowing admins to filter modlog entries by moderator, as well as some performance issues reported by other instances.

    We usually wait for other instances to run the latest version for some time to allow bug reports to surface before we update ourselves.

  • hello, i've removed the deleted moderator account from the community now. this makes your current account the top mod and should allow you to delete the community now.

    if this is still not working for you please let me know.

  • I recommend raising this issue with the app developer.

  • Hi,

    we've lifted the ban on embedded ibb images (direct image links) now.

  • It's not automatic, admins have the option to ban with or without content removal.

    Different instances deal with this differently and admins are also humans that sometimes make mistakes. Especially during holiday season there are frequently trolls running around with racist, transphobic or other offensive content. Sometimes they're more obvious, sometimes they try to fly under the radar a bit by being less direct. In the end you're at the mercy of the instance admins of the instance you signed up with and many instances will provide contact information to appeal bans.

    Since this account was not a Lemmy.World account it's not up to us to decide whether or not the user should be banned and whether their content should be removed.

  • If you're referring to the post Ex Redditors of Lemmy what made you come on over? What happened at Reddit that you made the switch?, their account was banned for trolling and all content associated with the account was removed.

    They also had a number of other posts that seemed to be doing just fine, so it might be falling in the "stupid kid" category.

    The post has since been restored by a community moderator, although the user's account on lemmy.ml is still banned: https://lemmy.world/post/17593614

  • works fine for me both logged in and not logged in. can you reproduce this in a private browser window?
