For those around, I moved from the #Framapiaf instance to the #linuxrocks instance.

My account at #Framapiaf was limited since Sept 2023 and it was never explained to me why: the mods have never answered, and I don't recall ever posting something remotely "controversial" in 2023, or ever.

Anyhow, I hope this instance is chill and welcoming. I saw some #Fedora stuff on their Peertube, and the moderation section didn't seem outrageous.

Has somebody a contact for the #linuxrocks instance? It's pretty damn long offline (48+ hours).

I went ahead and deleted my #Mastodon account at https://linuxrocks.online/@SolusSpider
99% of my contacts should be following me here now on this #GoToSocial account, so no more need for forwarding.

Next task is to update direct links, starting with the one in https://solusspider.w3spaces.com/spider.html

The users are split, with many leaving, and others attacking the server owner for perceived weakness:

"I'm wondering why I should even stay here... the inmates are running the asylum."

The owner of LinuxRocks complains he is being bullied and won't stand for it, threatening to go on the attack:

"I will show everyone how toxic some of these other instances really are... I got plenty of screenshot over the years."

servers like LinuxRocks.online aren't usually known for their controversy, but after one of their users caused an admin to speak up in favor of "welcoming" and / users, other servers have decided to defederate.

Just wanted to say this out loud, in case anyone hasn't caught wind of the #LinuxRocks.online drama...

LinuxRocks is limited from our public timeline at the moment, but if any LinuxRocks user wants to transfer their account to TechHub, this is still allowed, as long as they follow our different rules.

For example, we don't allow...

- Advocating that people should have fewer rights than others based on race, color, religion, sex/gender, national origin, age, disability, marital status, etc. ("political affiliation" is different in a public forum, but don't push us on it either)

- Calls for violence against nonviolent members of said arbitrary groups, including Israelis, Palestinians, or women who have abortions.

- Harmful misinformation such as COVID denial or calling an Arabic Women's Lightweight Boxer a "man" for winning against a white woman.

If any LinuxRocks user needs help transferring accounts to any server, just ask me and I'll see what I can do.

- TechHub #Moderation

#fediblock
TL;DR - linuxrocks online is blocked on estrogen.plus

estrogen.plus stands against transphobic instances. And harboring them while defending them goes against our principles.

If
#linuxrocks decides to remove the problematic person I'm willing to listen. But we'll keep them blocked otherwise.

A community around Linux should not be against trans people!
Trans, POC, women and other marginalized groups have helped immensly getting computing where it is now.

The last two days I'm getting a 502 Bad Gateway error when trying to reach the Linuxrocks PeerTube server.

Considering that I post #Linux content on here, on occasion, I am seriously considering closing my #LinuxRocks account and merging it into this one. 🤔

I'm on far too many instances and it's about time I started to consolidate them!

I just used the /etc/hosts in a way it is not supposed to be used...

Nothing dangerous, I just had an issue where for some reason my dot/period key was sending c instead of . to a remote host so couldn't type anything containing a dot. I think it's a quirk through using a remote session to a Windows server (eugh) then into a HyperV machine (uuuuurg) to the console of the linux virtual machine (I know, I know...).
I just needed to install tailscale on it so I could ssh to it directly, and I can't copy and paste to it either.

So, the fix:

cat the hosts file into a new file, remove everything in the file except the dots
in that file, type in a ssh command to a server I do have direct access to, with reverse tunnel back to the ssh port on the problem machine
then simply bash {thefile} and ssh proxyjump through the middlemachine and I'm in! Install tailscale, job done!

Is the #LinuxRocks server offline for anyone else? I've not been able to access it this morning.

#Linux #Mastodon

I was spending some time on #LinuxRocks but there is too many 500 errors there for me to comfortably browse around at the moment.

@omnipotens is there any ideas on this? I am aware of at least one other user having these issues. It seems to have been since the server was moved.

P.S. I would have sent this via LR but too many 500s for my liking :)

I keep getting 500 errors popup in the little notifications alert box thingy whenever I load the page, or really do anything, yet things happen and still work... Anyone know why?
