  • What does "Posts older than 365 days will be removed." mean exactly?

    Jump

  • That might have been true for some subreddits, but not all.

    I've had people reply on pretty obscure subreddits years ago, on posts that were years old.

  • Awww man...I mean its kind of a good idea, but on reddit I've had people reply to 10 year old posts.

    Its a weirdly nice feeling.

    But I do think we're in a data hoarding mentality and wish to preserve everything. I think it is important to let things go.

    Edit: Though on the flipside, I do appreciate especially on technical posts, to go back and look up people's answers/solutions to questions I have.

    Even if the answer is no longer valid, perhaps the person who provided the answer can offer an alternate solution.

  • What instance of Lemmy would you recommend to use, lemmy world or something else?

  • Two things, you were right; my misunderstanding was due to my failure to have an intuitive understanding of defederation.

    What happened was that I signed on in lemmy.world to make a post on lemmy.cafe (through lemmy.world).

    My second question: I tried all weekend to access old.slrpnk.net

    But the site was either really really slow (like a page would pop up after a minute or two) or would just result in an error.

    Is this a problem on my end? Or is something going on that should be sorted out soonish?

    Thanks again and keep up the good work.

  • Oh man thank you so much on both fronts (for your other post also)

    Small simple things that make the entire thing so much easier

  • Why would they do that? I'm unaware of internal issues in Lemmy at this point?

  • Yeah, as someone who is struggling to understand the concept of federation...this doesn't help me at all.

    I guess what its saying, if you're on lemmy.world, you can't access content on lemmy.zip?

  • I apologize, I have another follow up question (again all stemming from failing to grasp an intuitive understanding of federation) to point 1.

    I'm fairly sure I was able to sign on lemmy.cafe and make a post in a community over there.

    Basically I am trying to understand why was I able to do that there and not at slrpnk.net. Is it something unique to lemmy.cafe? Something unique to slrpnk.net?

  • Another stupid follow up question (related to 2.)

    How did you see this post?

    In other words, exactly how do I get lemmy.world content on slrpnk.net?

  • Thanks, this seems like a good option. I appreciate teh old.reddit like interface that old.lemmy.world also has

    Two comments

    1. I can't log in with this account to slrpnk.net. Should I create a new account, or am I doing something wrong?
    2. A very minor minor comment; one thing I don't like about old.slrpnk.net & old.lemmy.world, is the site by default loads to hot posts. I found the active tab to be far more interesting; there is more engaging discussion that I can learn from. If perhaps due to a cookie setting or something, the site could default to the active tab; I (and possibly others) will appreciate it.
    3. I know I said 2, but I'm still struggling to understand the concept of instances. So slrpnk.net is a separate world from Lemmy.world right? Can I engage in lemmy.world's content or no?
