What do you mean by “don’t move the Overton Window”? It’s not supposed to be a static thing. Once it didn’t include things like voting rights for women, or gay marriage. It’s supposed to be a flexible thing.

I could, but it would only reinforce their belief they’re victim here. Nothing would change.

Removed as a protest against the community’s support for campaigns to bring about the deaths of members of marginalized groups, and opposition to private entities working to prevent such campaigns, together with it’s mindless flaming and downvoting of anyone who disagrees.

As a postscript for this discussion only, be aware that virtually all the replies to my comments quote me out of context, or claim I’ve made arguments I haven’t. It’s safe to disregard them.

Quoted verbatim here, just in case you choose to edit it again.

The only reason you got downvoted to hell in this thread is because you want to paint everyone who opposes corporate censorship as transgender murder supporters, in, what the article itself describes as a futile, neverending effort.

And now that you are time and time confronted with the fallacies you employ, you decide to edit all your comments “in protest”. Stopping only to call everyone who opposed you even in the slightest an accomplice to murder. Very mature.

Edit: Ah cute. They delivered another show of their good intent in my DM;

Fuck off and die you harassing, lying, piece of shit.

Everyone who disagrees with you must be pro-kiwi huh? I rest my case.

Storage on the vm won’t be too much of an issue, as long as you make sure to use Object Storage (s3) for pict-rs from the start. For Lemmit (just a few users, but hundreds of communities and over 150k posts) I’m doing fine with just 2 GB of memory, 1 vcpu, and 2 GB of disk storage for postgres. The storage bucket is sitting at 36 GB.

You might want to scale up cpu and memory for more users as you grow, but you’d be surprise with how little resources you can get away.

That’s promising :/ I really like the shape of that mouse, and the custom weights. What did you end up buying instead?

I still have a ~10 year old Logitech G500 that has finally started to go bad. I’ve been looking around, and it seems that Logitech’s quality has been going down the drain - apparently sometimes clicks get registered as double clicks on recent models?

Can you (or anyone else who has one) comment on their experience with that?

What the Wandermeister over here said.

Object storage generally is much cheaper than vm disk space (I got 1TB for $5/month at vultr). And the sooner you do it, the better - the migration process took 3 hours for me yesterday, transferring just over 102k files (34 GB).

Hole in their pocket?

Use rsync to get the bulk of the data over (even if it’s mid write) one or more times, then stop the stack on the origin server, and run rsync again. It should be much faster.

Mostly receiving posts and sending out to federated servers.

I think that’s more of a client issue than a server issue though.

Yeah, my instance doesn’t have a lot of users, but it does have a lot of posts (few thousand per day). It might be all the updates it’s sending out.

I guess I’ll just have to give 0.18 a try then.

Depends on where it was posted. That has no place in !technology@lemmy.ml, for example. Context is key.

Edit: I see now that it was posted to !worldnews@lemmy.ml. Which is indeed more relevant (haven’t read the article). Still, every lemmy instance has it’s own moderators and moderator styles. If you don’t agree with the moderators of this community, then by all means subscribe to a different one, to get your varied mix of news.

All in all I don’t see this as a problem with the Lemmy instance, just possibly with that specific community. It definitely isn’t a Lemmy Support issue though.
