There are some funky federation issues right now, the servers are straining a little bit under the load spike. I can see your post.

According to the screenshots in the sticky on r/music, they have created a new Admin account under an anonymous name and are messaging mod teams telling them to get back to work. And they removed mod permissions from a mod there (but they’ve been restored now).

That’s why a lot of subs are continuing the protest in other ways. r/pics, r/gifs, r/art have all had polls with the subs and are now currently John Oliver only subs, r/aww is probably about to follow them. r/steam now posts literal steam and steam engines, r/wellthatsucks is posting vacuum cleaners, others like r/interestingasfuck as said they are changing rules to be pretty much anything anyone wants to post as long as the poster thinks it’s interesting as fuck, iOS is similar, they’re removing all rules and anyone can post anything as long as it has something to do with iOS, etc.

I can appreciate the chaos this is revolving into.

I wish there was a way to separate NSFW a little more - I don’t mind NSFW stories and adult language and so forth when scrolling but if I’m in public I don’t want to scroll All and see porn. I have no problem with porn, but to me there’s a time and place.

When I have NSFW disabled, I’m losing entire communities that I read the stories from because sometimes the content does 100% need the warning flag that it might not be for general audiences, but I don’t mind seeing an R rated movie in public while I won’t go see an NC-17 movie or an X rated movie in a theatre, personally, if that makes sense.

I was using Apollo and saw several polls. It forced an opened page in new Reddit to access the poll but it was an isolated post and not cluttered or hard to deal with or anything.

I voted to close a lot of subs before Monday. The subs I voted in are mostly still closed, too, so either they are using that as proof it was community voice or they aren’t big enough subs for the admins to force a reopening.

!shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca is one I saw pop up recently.

!gifrecipes@lemmy.world also.

You do have to create another account if you want to move to a new instance, yeah.

I think since lemmy.world is so stable and didn’t have (many) issues when the signup spikes were happening a lot of former Redditors ended up here. lemmy.ml is run by the developers.

Because of the way it all works, and because we can interact with everything we’re federated with, we’re pretty free to choose the best instance for us or even create our own if we wanted to.

Got it downloaded. Looks great. I see there’s going to be an update to be able to scroll my subscribed feed instead of all, looking forward to it.

Sure thing, once it’s up I’ll def get a lot of play from me. I’m not too fond of the Safari experience and really dig the Apollo esque look.

Once it becomes available I’ll happily test it, the videos look great.

Question - does it happen to have dark mode (either matching system or a toggle)? The all white is a bit much for me personally but I’ll test it all the same.
