Hype. Thanks for the continued maintenance and improvements.
The speed is delicious 😋, thank you!!
Looks like some people still don't know about the patreon so don't be afraid to shill a bit. Perhaps add a link to it as a server tagline? I think you can have more than one and the server will rotate through, showing users them all?
TO ANYONE MISSING CONTENT FROM THE TIME DURING THE MIGRATION!!
Some content from the time during the migration is now appearing as it gets new votes and comments on other instances, and the post/comment being interacted with gets federated to sopuli along with the new interaction.
But many posts and comments have been lost during the migration. The federation won't retry due to Sopuli not properly pausing federation during the migration, unless someone on another instance interacts with it again. This means many comments and some posts may remain missing on sopuli.
If there is something you want to comment on or reply to, you can grab the link to the content from another instance (you need to copy the link from the colorful fediverse icon on a post or comment) and if you paste that into search on sopuli, you can manually trigger federation for that thing so you can then vote/comment/reply.
You can also check for any replies you may have gotten by checking your profile from another instance.
This should be pinned!
This makes a good feature request to make at Lemmy's GitHub: add a feature for pinning messages in a thread.
Isn't this a thing? Mark it as distinguished.
Edit: Only works with your own comments. Would make sense to let you do it for others as a mod/admin.
I can't pin my own replies, but I can mark them with "speaking as an admin".
Yeah that's the feature. In the API it works by setting "distinguished" to "true" so that's the term I used.
Effectively pinning, but would be nice to be able set it on any comment as mod/admin/OP of a post.
So I guess the feature exists, but it's applied a bit narrowly.
Let us know when you want some help with the server costs!
There's patreon link on FAQ.
Thank you very much for your amazing work and all the time you spend on the migration and the regular admin stuff. Highly appreciated what you're doing there for us and the fediverse! :)

(I spent some time searching it as I never use the web interface but only ever access Lemmy via Boost on Android)

-When does the server upgrade?
-1719392400 seconds since 1970-01-01.
-Perfect.
Finland indeed is UTC+3 (EEST, East European Summer Time), so your times seem correct.
We appreciate the work you do. Thank you!
We're back!! 🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮
😶
So happy to be back! Thank you for the work! Let us know if we can donate in any way!
It's good to be back! I had to go to the other site for my scrolling fix shudders.
Still not opening donations?
There's a Patreon page?
Please consider adding one more tier between 1€ and 5€: maybe 2 or 3.
1€ just seems too low and while 5 (well 6.05 with tax) is not too much on it's own, it all adds up with other Patreons for those of us trying to keep the monthly bill down
You can enter whatever custom amount you want. Just select the 1 USD tier and you'll have the chance to change that amount on the way.
Oh nice I'll go check it out, totally missed it. I actually don't see your posts in my feed very often to be honest but might just be my settings.
Patreon has been linked in the sidebar for a while now. Not a lot of donors, still, so do check it out!
Totally missed that, thanks!
Ei ollut edes ikävä (eipä 🥲). Kiitos!
Fiksuhan olisi ottanut Matrixin/Mastodonin seurantaan, mutta eipä ole meikäläistä siunattu järjelläkään.
I have nothing of substance to add but I love you and the people who make this website run.
Honestly, y’all make the world a better place by helping keep the future of social media alive and growing by providing a home for people that is astonishingly rare in its genuine and open nature.
There are many things we can do in this world to impact it, many things we believe that are required of us in order to make the world turn (we all must suffer at shitty workplaces for 40+ hours a week), but many of those things are small acts that change only the fabric and weave immediately around us in the tapestry of our lives.
Helping maintain and run sopuli.xyz is NOT one of those acts, it is a major strategic offensive against a shitty corporate social media hellscape that simultaneously is a friendly home for good people to chat, what you are doing by helping keep the servers running, making tough (or mindnumbingly mundane) moderation decisions or you know just keeping the lights on in general… is creating the most valuable thing in the world, early momentum for an extremely transformative and powerful force for good.
Please remind yourself of that every day, the work you are doing is beautiful and inspiring in the simplicity and openness of the gift you provide the world through your labor. The work you are doing is also not just making the world a better place, it is doing it efficiently as fuck too, you are getting a damn fucking good deal out of blood sweat and tears for your heartfelt effort as every ounce of energy you put into helping craft the future of the fediverse has an innumerable force multiplying effect on how quickly and feasibly that future fediverse comes into reality.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you!
Thank you, beautifully said! When federation between Lemmy instances was finally implemented and people started forming their own instances, I decided to take part in that despite not having extensive system administration experience. I also wanted to experiment. Now I have thought that my intention for Sopuli is to be an alternative to the shitty corporate social media platforms you described – and looks like this has taken off very well in the last few years. Good to hear that I am doing something inspiring and beneficial.
Oot aika äijä! Nostetaas tuosta lahjoitustasoa seuraavaan pykälään, kiitos tästä hienosta työstä mitä teet meidän kaikkien eteen ja/tai puolesta!
Well done!
Good luck!
Thank you so much!
Can anyone explain that minor bug or is this from the upgrade? It only shows in the "mod view"-Tab.
Not a minor bug, I just decided to put random things as taglines for the instance, such as that one quote from some Lemmygrad user. Just for fun.
😂 sneaky!
Seems I'm getting constant posts failed to load after a few pages of All. Worked well for a while. Hopefully gets better soon.
