I can't look into this too deeply at the moment, but it looks like at least one person was able to make an account within the past hour. Maybe try the usual stuff (disable adblock, different browser, etc) for now and I can temporarily disable CAPTCHA for you later if needed.
[support] Has anyone else been having trouble interacting with Lemmy off and on these past few days?
This should be fixed now.
True, but if Meta (or anyone) wanted to "directly" get that data, it would be as trivial as setting up an instance on something as small as a Raspberry Pi and subscribing to a community here. We would have no way of knowing who it is or stopping them. Defederation is a tool to prevent brigading, not lurking.
If (if) Meta wanted to set a lemmy-style platform, preemptively defederating from it would be a largely symbolic gesture. Doesn't mean it's not worth doing, like I said we'll cross that bridge if and when it becomes relevant.
That warms my cold android heart to hear. We set this place exactly for people like you who wanted a good jumping off point. Welcome!
Thank you! 😂 I have been quietly stewing that nobody has remarked upon it yet.
I did not announce it, I am a bad Admin!
Thanks, was upgrading Lemmy. Should be back up now.
Thank you for participating <3
There is Jerboa for Android, Mlem for iOS, and an app similar to Apollo in the works.
Thank you (singular) for helping keep to keep this community vibrant!
