I see a few cakes next to usernames (my cake day is June 10th).

It has been an interesting year, so thanks for hanging in there!

This Lemmy instance is a nice place to hang out, so here’s to many more!

I worked on the database stuff some more today and didn’t have any luck with getting federation of comments working again. I decided to upgrade the server to the new release, 0.19.4 even though it’s so new, with hopes that it might jump start some federation stuff – and so far it hasn’t! finally got federation back to a working state, at least so it seems, maybe?! Thanks @Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me.

The new version has some neat new features, though.

Under your profile you can click “Uploads” and see all of the pictures you’ve uploaded. Some of them seem to be “lost”, but that’s par for the course. You can even delete the pictures. Yay!

    It was me who complained about this 😅

    I’m sorry: I thought I would have remembered if it was you 😅

    I don’t believe we will have much turnover from old members of the subreddit - most aren’t really keen on the idea of a new platform

    There were indeed a few who were strongly opposed, and we will never get those, but there were also a few who initially posted here, but found it too boring with too little interaction during the time before we got our new management (yay @walden@sub.wetshaving.social 🎆 🎆 🎆). @whosgotthepudding@sub.wetshaving.social came back, but most never did – but I believe that some can be reached.

      (Apologies for the late reply, internet connection over here is unstable.)
      Hey, no need to be sorry! I don’t mind, just wanted to confirm that I had this minor complaint 😉

      I see now. Unfortunately I didn’t get around to sign up here for a long time since tbh signing up on a federated instance is a bit more complicated than usual logins on centralised networks. Walden definitely does a terrific job in managing our instance over here. Whosgotthepudding is definitely good to see around here too, especially since they are a regular SOTD poster with great photos! I wouldn’t mind having some folks from Reddit over here, but judging by the fact that a few where always strongly opposed to new platforms and the strong negative reaction towards migrating the sub I didn’t have much hope tbh. If some folks can still be reached it’d be really cool.
