Yes, our yeen icon. Yiffit -> Yeen, both start with Y.

They don't even have a name :( We haven't gotten to naming them yet, but they will definitely still be around!

Sorry, I think I never replied to you. The physical server itself is already running proxmox VE 8.0, which is based on debian. Yiffit itself is running on ubuntu within proxmox and that won't change since migration will consist on shutting down the VM, making an exportable backup copy, sending the copy over to the new server and restoring the backup :P

It's quite easy and I already did a test run this afternoon, although without network connectivity to avoid the old backup sending out traffic to the world.

Hmmm... anyone knows the resources a matrix instance uses? Depending on how much is I could host one as long as someone helps with sysadmin management.

I messaged Dessalines and proposed a feature to have them block our communities while we could keep getting their content and participating in their communities.

:(

The same happened with feddit.de way in the beginning.

On the flip side I hope this helps the lemmy devs see why it would be useful to have better content filtering options for users and instance admins. Blocking us outright hurts federation as a whole. I'll reach out to them in a few days.

Try vocaroo! It's a free service without signup.

I heard on the news that no one survived.

And here I thought this was the nurse from the 90s, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beverley_Allitt

But, no. This apparently happened in 2015. Creepy how both cases are so similar.

It should be a signature that is sent together with the ActivityPub Object. Yes, if the signature doesn't match, the content, whether a post, comment, favorite, upvote, etc... should be dropped.

Here is the source code of the library that lemmy uses to handle incoming objects and you can see that it does a call to verify the signature of the actor:

Messages are sent with a digital signature that only the original instance could craft.

Every fucking time. And here I thought I was the only one.

 
 

Hello! This will be the first of our weekly discussions. This thread will be pinned in the local timeline all week long and I hope that everyone feels encouraged to voice their opinion.

This thread will be locked after a week. Make sure to join the discussion in time!

This weeks topic is: AI "art" and its impact on the furry fandom and artists.

Here are some guideline questions that you can use:

  • What are your opinions on AI generated text and images?
  • Should furry spaces allow AI generated images?
  • What do you think are the use cases for these tools?
  • What long-term impact do you believe it will have on the fandom and the fandom's artists?
 
 

Hello everyone!

First of all apologies for not having followed through with some ideas that I've had recently. I've found myself with less time than usual and been away for a while as well.

In the meantime I wanted to ask you what topics that are furry or furry related would you see yourselves discussing or debating?

I know that one of the rules of Yiffit is to avoid drama, but if we find certain debate/discussion topics and create the necessary environment to discuss them in a healthy way this might be something we could do.

In my case for example, a topic that always pops up on twitter is the debate around feral nsfw content. I won't get into details since this is not the post to do so, but I'm leaving it here as a potential topic for future more organized debates and discussions.

Please feel free to share or mention the topics that are furry or furry adjacent about which you have strong feelings and which you see yourself discussing in we found a proper way to do so. Feel also free to agree with other people in the comments as in "yes, I'd like to see this topic discussed as well".

The goal is to find topics we would love to discuss without necessarily opening pandora's box in this thread itself.

Thank you <3 I hope I don't come off as too cautious. I'm just unsure about what topics will be suggested and want to preempt a major flame war in the comments :P

Note:

topics don't need to be controversial at all. You can propose talking about everyone's favorite fursuit artists. The cautious approach I took here is just in case something controversial comes up.
