There are tools that can backup and migrate communities, blocks and settings like lasim for a user. So you can migrate between instances.

As far as I know, there aren't any tools that can migrate comment history and I think anything that could do that, would need to be backed into lemmy itself(Which it isn't currently).

Everyone is welcome to join my small instance at endlesstalk.org. I have also setup the same alternative UI's as lemmy.world, if that rocks your boat!.

Yeah, until there are better tools than defederation to limit communication between instances. Might take a while though and I think they only said they would re-evaluate it, so no guarantee(more detail in the link above)

I have hosted a lot of my own services for a couple of years and plan to continue hosting my instance(endlesstalk.org) indefinitely, unless something very major happens.

As others have mentioned I think multiple admins and backups(hard to verify though) are a good sign, but its only indications and you can't really be sure, if a instance will be there forever. I think there needs to be an easy way to migrate accounts and then the instances going down hopefully gives a notice, so you can move your account.

Gonna be difficult to recover accounts from instance going down without a notice I think. You could regularly take a backup of your account, but that is tedious and you will still lose some data.

They defederated from lemmy.world + sh.itjust.works(Not lemmy.ml) and you can see their reasoning here

My instance(endlesstalk.org) is very small, but you are welcome there.

I think most instances besides beehaw.org are federated with lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. So you should be able to look at join-lemmy or lemmyverse for servers to join.

If you want to check if a instance is defederating a specific instance, you can go to /instance on the instance and look under Blocked Instances

There were a post, that had 2 replies on desktop, but when I saw the same post on liftoff, there were none.

Haven't noticed it any other time though.

I'll recommend my own instance at endlesstalk.org. There you can create a community, if you want. lemm.ee or sh.itjust.works might also allow creating of new communities, but I haven't checked.

I have a younger sister and we get along fine. We take a couple of vacations together with our father each year and also meet up once in a while, when it is possible.

Usually, it is correct, that the all feed would be smaller on a small instance, but "seeders", like lcs or lemmony can make the feed in all tab much larger.

It does this by subscribing to a lot communites. Lcs does for specific communities and lemmony subscribes to everything. You can see an example of an all tab with many subscriptions(added via lemmony) at my instance

I think the easist way to check, if an instance uses one of these seeders is to check the number of subscriptions in the instance. Or just ask the admin for the instance.

Unfortuntately I'm not sure, if I can do that much about the federation stuff, since its possible the other site isn't sending everything out correctly. It also doesn't seem to be feddit.de as a whole, as there are other communites from feddit.de, that works.

I will look into though and see if I can find anything, that my site is during, that could be causing the issue. Might take some time, since it is a bit tricky to debug.

I found the issue. I had set the rate limit for messaging to 0(unlimited), which LASIM wasn't set to handle.

I have now set another rate limit, so it should work now(Worked for me atleast)

Yeah, for the frontends setup on endlesstalk.org you would need an account there, but the developers of the frontends have setup their own, where you can use an instance you want.

For Alexandrite there is https://alexandrite.app and for Mlmym there is https://mlmym.org

No problem.

I will try to use the tool and see if I can find out, if its the tool or the website. I'll update, when I find more out.

If I add a ! before(eg !pflanzen@feddit.de), then I can find the communities, but there isn't any content for it, so seems some content isn't federating correctly.

Images are working again now, so you can try again and see if it works.

I think it is because there is some federation issues with kbin(As I mentioned in the other comment.

Yeah, I think there is something wrong with the kbin federation. I have been subscribed to @RedditMigration@kbin.social for some time, but there isn't any content on endlesstalk.org.

I will look into it.

Ah, if I logged out, then I'm unable to get it, when I search via url, but I can see it, if I just search for RedditMigration and limit the type to Communities
