Well damn, Jackie, I can't control the weather
How am I suppose to guess the name of a girl? And that's a remote! A remote control...
It also helps to have seen That 70s Show. I didn't know the woman's name, but that bit of dialog is well known with fans of the show.
Is JFK's wife. Kind of famous.
Oh I see. I would recognised her husband.
How is he?
Stable
The US president that got shot in the head if I'm not mistaken.
That wasn't the question. How is he?
White, brownish hair, quite young and fit for a president.
I don't think he is very well considering he died from the aformentioned bullet.
You see, I sat here in my back yard smoking a joint and piecing this one out for probably 3 minutes and the answers in the comments.
3 days old with an exclusively upvoted comment that explained something to everyone. Legend 👍
Much obliged. I've actually been here about 2 years since the Reddit API fiasco but was originally on lemm.ee, and well, yeah lol. I'd wager that's the bulk of new accounts for the last few weeks.
I should have known 😂🤦♂️ Still a legend 🫡
🤙
You can move your profile between instances. But you have to do it while they're both still federated.
Wait really? I know there were tools to move subscriptions and whatnot, but I didn't see anything about being able to move comments and posts across.
Damn that would've been nice to have read in the shutdown post lol. Everything I read said to put a link to your new account on your old accounts profile so users can find your new one.
I don't think that's how it works though. I believe once the server shutdown, our old profiles vanished with it, aside from posts and comments made on other instances. I can search my old name ([email protected]) and some stuff comes up, but clicking on my username results in an error.
It appears that while content federates across instances, posts and their associated comment threads are tied to that instance. If the instance shuts down, that post is gone.
Edit: so I can see that some users were able to move their profiles while retaining their [user]@lemm.ee, which becomes [newlemmyurl]/u/[user]@lemm.ee, so, shit. It also appears that communities were able to migrate in the same manner. It's all good, too late now I suppose. Hopefully the lemme.ee admins have backups and someone can take up the mantle.
What content is there besides posts? Isn't federated content not only 'visible' from other instancez but also copied to there? Maybe you don't know either, i'm just figuring stuff out along the way.
Really just posts and comments. See I was under the impression that posts and comment threads copied across instances as well, but now I'm wondering if that's not the case?
Wait if lemme shuts down, do all the posts and comments vanish? This is even worse than reddit for archival.
Maybe? Unless the mods migrate that community to a new instance, I'm guessing so. I'm wagering this is the first time a sizable instance has shut down, so it'd seem we're all learning together.
