'Anyone who is [most humans on earth]' is too big a category for me to make a useful recommendation. Are you reading for a certain purpose? For example, to understand a specific issue, deepen some relationship, help decide on a course of action, or just feel good?

I'm not an abolitionist because "abolition" doesn't go far enough. It's no accident that abolitionists mostly talk about "abolishing" visibly repressive arms of the state but not so much the nation-state system in its entirety, or the European cultural base it rests on. Most of them shy away from even fighting to abolish the nation-state they live in because then they wouldn't be able to demand policy changes from it.

Especially people who mess with metadata. Adding things, fixing things, etc.

Hello,

If I open: https://lemmy.world/c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml and https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support in 2 different tabs, I don't see the same posts at all, even with the same sorting option selected.

Is it just because the servers are overloaded and there is some delay in the synchronization?

Thanks for your help trying to understanding the fediverse inner working.

 

So that if you paste a link to one of those big social media platforms, it offers to replace it with a working alternative front-end.

Some feedback to see if this is similar for others. First I tried searching 'skypictures' and only this post came up. Then I tried '!skypictures@lemmy.ml' and got nothing. Lastly I tried 'sky pictures' and it appeared, but with only one post instead of two.

I might be experiencing something similar. I saw different posts under "All" before and after logging in, even using the same sort ("New"). But in both cases I'm viewing from my home instance.

Update: For example, I subscribe to !socialism@beehaw.org and saw multiple posts from my home instance before logging in, but now only one is showing up.

I'm noticing the same thing for some (but not all) subscriptions to communities on other instances. I'll try retrying for some of them though, hadn't considered it.

Thanks, I'm glad it's not permanent because I'd like to give it a try as well.

I can't open kbin.social over Tor. It gets stuck on the Cloudflare verification page.
