wiki-user: unruffled

Authoritarians, having argued so doggedly for the domination of a paternalistic state and having therefore turned themselves into ideological infants, then develop a hyper-reductive view of geopolitics; precisely the one, in fact, that a state would like for them to have. - DB

  • Hi Antik, as I mentioned elsewhere in the comments, I was very happy to hear that you decided ‘unremove’ our little community. I appreciate you going to the effort of revisiting the earlier decision and being transparent about the process, and I’m sure that goes for the vast majority of the people here (though obviously not all 🤨).

    While individual users were probably more impacted by that decision than we were as a instance (because they couldn’t access this community from lemmy.world), I can tell you that our admin team fully understood the situation you were in and there are no hard feelings from our side.

    I don’t know whether there is a wider appreciation of the fact that managing a lemmy instance is quite labor intensive and technically challenging for the system admins, who are all volunteering their time and expertise. And there’s still lots of bugs and problems to identify and deal with.



  • I don’t like to see fellow pirates fighting each other - save it for the corporate overlords! To clarify this issue, you absolutely can Google search the site the OP mentioned via Google and download links etc. Think of that site kind of like the Russian Facebook/Instagram/YouTube all rolled into one. They do have an app they try to get you to download, and they do want you sign up for an account, but the content is also indexed by Google so you can find stuff without the app and without logging in, using the method described by the OP.

    Can we all relax now?
