I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.

Ask me anything.

I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

  • Is it still possible to interact with the communities (post, vote, etc.)?

    Yes, but only locally.

    If your instance already knows about the community, people on your instance can still post and interact with the community. However, anything submitted to it will not federate to other instances, so it’s analogous to a local-only community.

    Unless the LW admins removed them already, there were some Beehaw communities that were still showing activity on Lemmy World from local LW users despite Beehaw not federating with LW. (Those communities were resolved prior to Beehaw defederating). The one I recall seeing no longer comes up, so they probably did remove them (admins were aware).

    is it still possible to delete them if the ownership of the community (aka the top mod) belongs to an user from another instance

    I don’t think so, at least not in 0.19.3. There are some operations that, if using a remote mod account (even if it’s top mod), throw a “not a moderator” error.









  • Coming off a code sprint; about to release a small patch update and then take a much needed hiatus. Despite being February, it’s been decently warm outside, so have been planning to get a head start on some outdoor projects I want to get done this year ( and finish a couple that are leftover from last year, though knowing me, probably not in that order 😆).

    Also trying to balance those projects with the looming threat of being unemployed. The org I work for is largely (though not entirely) funded by agencies this administration is currently gutting. So, that’s fun. I’ve been here 7 years and was planning to retire from here, but that’s looking less and less likely every day.
