Somehow I don’t think Errol Musk knew that much about the geology. Allegedly he bought the shares on a whim without first visiting the mine, which was in a different country.

Mines can absolutely become suddenly unprofitable. You don’t know how much good stuff is in the ground until you dig it up.

The mine went bankrupt in '89, just a few years after Errol bought shares in it. The boss was someone else.

If someone wants karma they could host a modified instance where every post gets thousands of upvotes for free. Other instances can’t really verify whether that’s accurate.

Does it cause issues if domain and tld match?

For people who previously used SMS and had their contacts saved in the phone’s pre-installed contact app, WhatsApp could use all those contacts out of the box.

If per-user instance filters are implemented, perhaps instances could have “default blacklists” for new users for stuff like exploding-heads or lemmygrad that most people don’t want to see, with the option to manually un-block them if someone does want to see that.

Text is cached but images aren’t rehosted.

Also when sorting by active, posts jump around whenever you go to the next page, so you miss some posts and see others twice

Lemmygrad is blocked from federating with most other instances but still is a pretty large instance. Though that instance in particular is not very likely to look towards IPO.

It could happen if there was a very popular instance that didn’t federate with others.

Because lemmygrad is pretty huge and other instances don’t want their new users to be met with a flood of tankie content, most instances are blocking lemmygrad.

This doesn’t really do any API calls, it just scrapes the page in the browser and reformats the links. Bookmark-code is neat for stuff like that. I have another bookmark that disables the “anti-Ctrl+C” protection on another site I use, and one that sets the videos on my university’s website to 1.25 speed (they disabled that feature in the video player by making it unclickable, my bookmark makes it clickable again).

By the way, this code was 90% written by ChatGPT.

I don’t have a script to automatically subscribe to a list of communities on a new account yet, that’s a bit more difficult…

Update: Seems to be back up!

German “Catastrophe” is “Katastrophe”. “Katzastrophe” is “Katze”+“Katastrophe”, which in english would be “cat” + “catastrophe”… oh.

It’s just the site, 3rd party apps still work lol…

Edit: Partially. RIF works on r/all, but not the home page.

Hm, games geht jetzt, aber https://feddit.de/c/spaceflightmemes@sh.itjust.works geht nicht.

Couldn’t you just make a new account on another instance and link to it on your old profile? Perhaps a feature to subscribe to export/import your subscribed communities would be nice.
