Our little instance is closing to 6 months of operations and it occurs to me I never really asked for some open feedback from our peeps. So I wanted to start a discussion to see your concerns and comments in general. So tell me, in the context of the divisions by zero, what bothers you, what pleases you, what would you like to see improved.
Feel free to share your thoughts about anything.
Thanks for the hard work and effort put into this instance! :)
There is actually something I’d like to chat about, but the time is too soon.
Here’s to another six months of db0!
No troubles! Thanks for a kooky, but stable slice of Lemmy. I’ve been trying to stay low on smaller instances and several have gone down already (growing pains; no one’s fault).
Love the vibes and the anarchism 🤘

It’s great, a great instance, the best one really. Seriously just love it. I can’t believe my luck landing here first try.
Grog’s on me, boys!
Mates, tell me your troubles
what bothers you
That guy’s thumb in that pic.
And what’s his other hand doing under that paper?
Drawing hands is hard
I’m enjoying your instance, thanks. No problems here. In fact it’s great to use while in the company of family knowing there’s not going to be any NSFW surprises.
This is probably the best instance for self hosting enthusiasts and for that I want to say thank you. My only complaint is that our posts aren’t searchable. I’m not sure if thats because of the instance or Lemmy itself.
Huh? They are searchable. Not sure what you’re doing
Oh I did a bit of digging and found out that specific posts can be searched. If we put in “site:lemmy.dbzer0.com (post title)” it’ll show up in the results.
Hope this instance becomes big enough so our posts will show up as the first result on Google/DDG. Cheers!
I made an account here FIRST on lemmy, but moved to world a week in or so because that was a more active instance
When they stupidly banned communities from here I came back and literally have said out loud that I’m unsure why I ever left
It’s a perfect home for lemmy for me (a weird lurker who loves piracy and shrooms and whatnot) and the “is closing” scared the shit out of me lol

1000% this. It’s nice to have a place where people are also interested in the weird shit that I like/care about like piracy/cannabis/etc. Additionally, most people I know don’t give a shit about privacy and don’t understand how wrong the “I don’t have anything to hide so what do I care”.
This was the only instance that I felt like I immediately identified with, so that being said, keep doing what you’re doing OP.
I also had to reread the “is closing” part several times hoping I was reading it wrong.
It was exactly like that for me. In the beginning I felt like I missed a lot of stuff on world but then I came back because they sanitized everything. This is the perfect middleground for me and the piracy community was also my introduction to the fediverse.
my only complain is I miss the option to sort by default top comments first, not popular ones. I guess that is not a dbzer0 problem, more a lemmy one :)
Defederate from Hexbear please <3
The next version of lemmy will have features so users can effectively block instances for themselves.
The communities and posts won’t show up, but you can still interact with the users.
Uh no, it won’t, Hexbear users and their spam will still be visible, blocking of instances only affects posts and communtities from instances. Also the blocking system in my opinion shouldn’t be seen as a fallback when it comes to malicious users, unless there’s an option to block interaction from users both ways. Otherwise it only caters to Snowflakes and people who ‘wanna not see something they don’t wike’.
I second this motion.
Nope. Go to lemmy.world
Just keep doing what you have been doing as far!
I love the instance, but defederation from Hexbear would be nice.
I agree, they are quite obnoxious.
Idk i like the open discussions but like why is no one on the left seriously talking about the UAP disclosure thing i feel like its crazier then people think. if you break it down to just military and commercial air pilot safety its like a serious problem. fuck little green men why is a F22 raptor getting out manouvered and who the fuck owns thats
I think you’re looking for [email protected]
Yeah its all a fucking joke. I guess fuck me for wanting a serious discussion on this private weapon research circlejerk. Its fucking scary imo
Just been lurking and this is my first post lol but I must say this place is great so far imo if I can say so for the short time I’ve been here.
I see a lot of unhappy people with the hexbear instance and I agree they have some very shit takes. I will also agree with the people who say not to defed and create a bubble, censor, etc. it is easy enough to ignore but everyone works differently. Doesn’t seem like a big issue to me. Just my two cents.
