Hey, lemm.ee was undergoing maintenance, please try to log in again now.

Sorry, it was a glitch in the Matrix, the comments are actually here: https://lemm.ee/post/45660045?scrollToComments=true

It was the result of a DoS attack yesterday, should be mitigated & recovering now.

Hi, there is no free speech policy on lemm.ee, we have very strict moderation when it comes to our rules. We regularly permaban users for breaking our instance rules. We simply don’t use defederation as a moderation tool, preferring other tools like user bans, for reasons outlined here: https://lemm.ee/post/35472386

Our pict-rs (image software) was having some issues, but it should be resolved now!

Can you try clearing all your cookies & then logging in again? I’m not sure if clearing the cache also clears cookies in Firefox.

Hey, I saw this ping, but I didn’t actually get any message from you about CORS headers. Where did you contact me?

Interesting! We’ve had quite a noticeable spike of sign-ups on lemm.ee as well

There isn’t any way to do this with the default lemmy-ui unfortunately

Hey! I’m not really sure about this at the moment. I can tell you that if the authors (or any legal entity) would contact me about this and ask for links to be removed, then I would comply, rather than try to fight it.

Usually, this is caused by external servers blocking the lemm.ee server from downloading images. This is happening surprisingly regularly, I’m not sure if there’s a good fix for this…

The YouTube thing does indeed appear to be a bug, I will look into that separately. Thanks for reporting!

We did indeed have a delay with outgoing federation around the time you made this post, but it already recovered shortly after. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Generally it is indeed possible to take over communities with inactive moderation, but have you tried contacting the mod first?

@andromedusgalacticus@lemm.ee, are you still around?

We had a temporary issue with generating different formats/sizes for existing images. I believe the issue is now fixed, our server is going through a backlog of missing files currently and regenerating them. I believe all broken images will be fixed within the next few hours.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hey, I see you luckily already received a relevant response here, but I still want to clarify: this community is for lemm.ee support, but your issue seems to be related to !politicalmemes@lemmy.world, so actually lemm.ee admins wouldn’t be able to help you with this.

For now, I just redeployed all of our servers completely, but as I don’t know the actual root cause of the issue yet, I’m still investigating to figure out if anything more is needed.

Sorry for the delay in updating the status page - I actually had gone out for lunch just a few minutes before the downtime started, so I didn’t even realize anything was up until I was back at my computer about 45 minutes later 💀

Actually, we’re using Hetzner’s cloud load balancer for lemm.ee. But if this issue repeats in the near future, then I will definitely consider setting up something else.
