That’s the beauty of decentralization. If a billionaire somehow wants to buy a lemmy instance (unlikely), and the instance owners agree (unlikely), users will just switch to a different instance and other instances will just defederate from it (likely).

Can anyone see anywhere they say when it takes effect? They don’t say it on the official announcement either.

Fantastic! Been waiting for this for a long time.

Damn, I’m not there, but I swear my artist profile is real. lol

I had someone at my job do something similar. He was Senior Director / VP level in tech and quit to become a full-time firefighter.

I can’t really say if there are degree filters in my company’s recruiting process, but I do know if they get far enough to reach the technical interview stage and I’m part of the interview panel, we don’t really care if the applicant has a degree or not. What we look at is experience and knowledge/skills. I wouldn’t recommend lying because HR does perform background checks.

Maybe send the rain emoji to help: 🌧️

I never said that was the only reason. We’re talking specifically about image proxying vs mirroring in this thread.

I tested this yesterday and it does work!

That’s credit towards the admins who acted quickly. That’s why you’ll see instances defederate from an instance if their admin is not active and doesn’t take action against illegal content in a reasonable time, because it can quickly get out of hand. Now if content isn’t proxied and is always mirrored, not only will the admin have to defederate from the problem instance, but they will have to go and clean up whatever was copied on their instance as well.

I moved to .zip for the similar federation style, not being part of the big instance fighting, using the latest lemmy version, and defederated from Threads.

But man, migrating to another instance made me really appreciate what @sunaurus@lemm.ee has done. I immediately noticed how .zip, while also maintained well by the instance admins, is noticeably slower than .ee. They also have issues with image proxying for alexandrite, which .ee doesn’t have.

Not a knock on .zip though. I do intend to make it my new home instance. Rather, it’s more of how .ee was exceptionally ran.
