Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

dammit, nothing's working right, I've been trying from the browser and from Connect, everything is fucky ๐Ÿซค comments not going in the right place, things loading very slowly

maybe it's my shitty rural Internet plus everyone being home for the holidays and streaming? idk, but I'm having a hell of a time trying to do the most basic shit

sorry, most of the changes are from upstream lemmy, and I try my best to reduce/undo the number of frontend changes they make, but sometimes they go a little too far and make it a lot of work to maintain hexbear-specific changes. also, third-party apps are completely out of our control as well; its up to them to update to 0.19 and whatnot.

Oh man, I'm super sorry, I didn't mean to be bitching about your work. I genuinely appreciate everything you all do to keep the site running, and I should have mentioned in all this whining that I was grateful that the downtime was so much less than expected.

Thank you for your time and labor, and for responding kindly to my stupid bitching! I sincerely apologize for it..

No no need to apology, just trying to give some background info. I'm the same way; i hate when updates change things in the UI after you get use to it. I do try to minimize it as best I can, but most of the changes on lemmy are out of my hands unless i dedicate a big chunk of time into making changes and then maintaining them every lemmy update.
