Lemmy could do a lot better job of showing that a community is on a dead instance. Here's an issue about warning when posting to defederated instances, which could be considered the same issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2680

It definitely could. Can instances lock down remote communities?

@kersploosh@lemmy.world maybe?

[–] m_f@discuss.online 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't see a way to simply lock it down as an admin. I see "Remove" and "Purge community" which both seem to be too nuclear, I assume they'd delete the comm history too.

That's unfortunate

I'm pretty sure it's doable but it might be necessary to become a mod first, which admins should be able to in remote communities as well iirc. it's just that their mod actions won't federate.

Would probably be enough

I really need to tell you how much I like your profile picture. Does Lemmy allow the use of GIF?

[–] m_f@discuss.online 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Thanks! Yeah, Lemmy allows for GIFs. Maybe they shouldn't, because of people like me :)

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 2 points 10 months ago

Oh no! They should. It is so cool. You stand out in conversation, not just because it is moving but because that is a very nice profil picture.
