I also don’t see how the first statement is problematic. To me it reads like they are encouraging their users to act with civility on other instances and keep the regular Hexbear stuff “to Hexbear itself”. The statement explicitly tells users to instead debate users in other instances using citations. From where I’m at, this seems like the best way to go about ideological disagreements in the first place; it’s certainly not a reason to defederate.

I agree. Right now the idea of a web app is cool, but it doesn’t really work all that well for me (scrolling up too quickly causes problems when the page thinks you want to refresh, and I like most of my apps to be in the drawer, not my home page, for instance).

That’s about all I’ve seen too. I’m currently using Liftoff as you say. I’ve tried just about everything else, but this comes closest to fulfilling the use-case I had for Boost.

I’m sorry bro cause I gotta hide this cause it’s so bad but I appreciate the glimpse into what that place looks like

Wait seriously?? I just bought it… I hope they change their minds about that.

Switched to this just today, looks great! Very clean and snappy interface. Noticed some incorrect usage of affect/effect in the settings pages. Affect is a verb, effect is a noun. For example, then, in the settings it should say “takes effect” instead of “takes affect”.

If, as you say, you’re not a computer expert or anything of the like and are just starting to learn, Lemmy might not be the best place to start. If I were you I’d look into other self-hosted things that you can use for yourself so you can learn about security and so you can get comfortable with the process. Hosting Internet-facing services is a big risk that you probably don’t want to undertake.

Jerboa for Lemmy is what I’m using!

Like others I’m wondering why not cloudflare?
