You can self host lemmy for about 15 a month, between server hosting and a domain name

As well as exit!

It does, as an FEP.

I’d say just try it, it’s only a few minutes of your time, and if you don’t like it you can delete the accounts.

kbin lives on as mbin.

Check kbin.earth, for example.

Why did beehaw lock itself down?

I sorted by top of all time on my profile, uploaded the images to another site, and hotlinked them in the post.

For any people in the future.

Not most, they do keep tiny thumbnails though.

Servers can:

• Proxy images
• Save them locally
• just link to them.

Most do the latter as its cheaper.

kbin was a lemmy compatible software.
It has all of the lemmy features, with a really nice ui and microblogging (like twitter).
kbin.social was the main instance, it had a lot of users.

The dev eventually abandoned the project, and kbin.social decayed untill it finally stopped working.

It was forked (code copied by a new group, to keep the project alive) by the mbin project.

https://kbin.earth/ is an mbin instance, for example, that’s still up.

Sounds good, but maybe consider moving it to a non-piefed.social piefed instance.

I’m slightly scared of another kbin.social happening.

I think you should keep your money for now.

Why did you have to point this out

Out of interest, what do you think of cuba?

Lemmy’s benefit is decentralisation. If you go to lemmy.zip, most of the old content is there. We don’t lose everything with this shutdown.

???

!casualconversation@lemm.ee is a big one.

They don’t.

Oh.

oh .

Ireland (and norway iirc) only recognised palestine recently.

Not regularly, but once or twice. I think a lot more people should donate to the internet archive though.
