I'm getting an "authorization invalid" message when opening lemmy.ml from desktop Chrome:

lemmy.ml generally uses encryption to protect your information. When Chrome tried to connect to lemmy.ml, it received unusual and incorrect credentials. This can happen when an attacker tries to impersonate lemmy.ml or the connection is interrupted by the Wi-Fi login screen. Your information remains secure because Chrome terminated the connection before the data exchange began.

You can't go to lemmy.ml right now because the website uses the HSTS protocol. Network errors and attacks are usually temporary, so this page will most likely work later.

Whereas from mobile I'm able to open the website. Anyone knows how to fix the issue?

For web: better theming, for app: i18n, for both: much smoother subscription to other instances.

 

The things are changing constantly:

  • Lemmy API
  • Flutter releases
  • Material You (not sure if this will have influence but it's a big change anyway)

So I'd like to thank the developers for all their hard efforts to support the above.

 

A Matrix-based Reddit/Lemmy/blogs/whatever alternative. Let's see how it will evolve.

 

I've just subscribed to https://sopuli.xyz/c/y2k, and now refreshing its local representation here at https://lemmy.ml/community/18886, but still no content. Will continue refreshing and will update this post as soon as I see the content reached this instance, but anyway I'm curious how long it could usually take.

Update 1: more than 40 minutes has passed, I see a new post with a video appeared on the remote side, and almost instantly here on lemmy.ml. But the previous post still not here.

 

Good to be aware what's going on the main Lemmy competitor side.

 

A very nice app that displays the feed in the "post + comments" way rather than in a microblogging manner.

IMO there's no such thing as "on Lemmy" in general, unless you mean this specific instance of Lemmy. But anyway, this problem of balance seems to be an eternal philosophical question which may be never solved once for all. Each instance chooses its own combination of censorship and freedom.

 
 

On the main page, I'm seeing posts from communities I'm not subscribed to. Is that expected? Changing the sorting method doesn't seem to help.

Also, wondering about the following:

  • why the client is imitating WhatsApp?
  • why there's no system tray on Linux and I can even remember a discussion that it's not needed?
  • why the desktop app top menu looks like a menu of a foreign wrapper?
 

Found this article while looking for the differencies between Signal and Session. Hope this helps.

 

I think it might be useful for the devs to have a look.
