Is there a tool for comparing Lemmy instances in regards to their federation policies?

Unfortunately lemm.ee has been short staffed for mods for at least a year due to high turnover/burnout. The very thing that appealed most to me about lemm.ee, that it was still broadly federated and thus offered a truer fediverse experience, ultimately led to its downfall. ☹️

Ironically, that lemm.ee still federated with .ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad was one of the primary factors for me deciding to move my account there from lemmy.world. I want to be a part of an instance that federates with those communities and then I can just block individual communities and accounts on a case-by-case basis from my account.

Some form of Gateway PC that was still running Windows 95 until my grandpa had me update it to 98. My other grandparents then got an early Apple iBook which was pretty awesome at the time as well.

I can't compete with most of these stories, but here's an example from my life anyway. I had minor oral surgery (gum graft) but they didn't get the lidocaine injections quite right so I felt a lot of the cutting and stitching as they were doing it. I just white-knuckled it so it'd be over sooner. Then I had to refrain from eating solid food for 2 weeks which also sucked.

Great vid! I would've greatly appreciated watching this if I were new to Linux. It sounds like my Linux journey has been similar to the person in the video's. I'm satisfied with Arch but am currently dipping my toes in Gentoo and NixOS

This is what I did and I absolutely love the thing! It's so much faster than any other flash drive for file transfers. I think it's a USB 3.1 Gen 2/SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps enclosure

Played through all of Doom 1 (enhanced) for the first time last weekend on my Steam Deck OLED; it was a blast! Now going through Doom 2. I never got to play them as a kid (overbearing parents) and when I tried a few years ago the controls didn't click. The enhanced version "fixed" that for me.

I bought a Synology a couple of years ago and it has been 100% rock solid the whole time. Synology OS is nice, their hybrid RAID is pretty sweet, and I've gotten many containers working with no issues (like the Servarr stack). But knowing that the company is enshittifying, I might not buy another product from them
