A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

!iphone@lemmy.ml is one offspring

[–] ghostalmedia@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’m worried that all the new large communities are hosted at a single instance, lemmy.ml

[–] MadCybertist@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Really 3 big players right now.

https://browse.feddit.de/

Lemmy.ml Lemmy.world Beehaw

Those 3 servers are like currently 70% of Lemmy traffic.

Sucks that the UI doesn't auto-link that for you.

[–] mobiuscoffee@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but we can help out in the meantime!

iphone@lemmy.ml

And if you need the full url for your instance's search: https://lemmy.ml/c/iphone

[–] C4Phoenix@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

that Is currently an issue on the radar. Lets hope it gets picked up quickly

[–] mobiuscoffee@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

In the meantime we can try to be helpful when possible!

iphone@lemmy.ml

And if your instance needs to search for the full url still: https://lemmy.ml/c/iphone

[–] millionsofplayers@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

is there a way to browse the newest subs in the instance?

[–] ghostalmedia@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Bummer that they’re vetting all new subscribers for an iPhone community. Seems like an aggressive gatekeeping tactic for a benign topic.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I've heard in other lemmy communities that the vetting is mostly an attempt at an anti-spammer( and anti-troll) measure.

[–] MadCybertist@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah you have to be careful. I still venture to guess 80% of folks here have no idea how federation works. Over time I hope things get better but federation is not a newbie friendly thing. People have to realize how it works and the more spread out the better.
