An ex-admin to whom we have given access to the server, has reported us to the server provider. Also we were already planning to migrate somewhere else. So right now we're moving to a more secure server.

I'll try to make a smooth transition. Any interaction (post, comment, like etc.) after 11AM (CET) will be deleted, but the site will not be down during migration. It will be an estimated 1 hour process.

Update: its done. Hopefully without problems. If you see this, you are on the new server.

Please clear your DNS caches.

Ironically, if you can read this, you don't have to clear your dns cache ;)

This might just be me, but does anyone else have the issue that videos can't be opened within the lemmy interface anymore? When I click on a video hosted on files.catbox.moe, it just doesn't expand anymore. It did that yesterday...

Also, I think I saw on another instance that redgifs Videos could be expanded in the interface as well. Was that added in a newer version? If so, it would be really cool if this instance could update.

I think you are talking about pornlemmy.com

It has redgifs integration done.

Thank you for everything!

Thanks for everything the admin(s) do to make this page possible. It's not just a corner of the internet where people talk about pornography and #nsfw things. It's much more than that.

An approach,

for open source,
for the community,
for an open and liberal communication
a role model how to deal with different opinions on (sometimes quite challenging topics and borders).

I've just discovered first hand what it means to make the first contribution as a mod (nothing! compared to what others are doing here). And I can't even fathom the effort it means for those who make all this possible here in the first place. In fact, everyone should be grateful and do their part (support the community, donate, post and comment) which can be done to take the burden off admins.

Wow. I don't know what all the hubbub was about, but I just want to say thanks. Y'all are providing a valuable service and it seems like you're taking a lot of shit for it. Your work is appreciated.

I believe I saw in the other post that the admin team was planning on moving to a Russian server. Is this true?

Given current circumstances in the world, I would like to know if the server fees paid are going to the Russian government (via taxes) and thereby supporting an ongoing conflict.
