  • Those two seem pretty slow regardless, but you’re right, that’s not a big difference, so it could work… really, though, the main hurdle is popularity. Unless you’re operating like a private tracker (which is no fun), it’s going to be very hard to get both uploaders and users to it. You’ll have to somehow get a lot of people interested, starting without any content (or if you’re an uploader yourself, not a lot of content), not a lot of recognition, on a relatively new platform. With the added bonus of it being harder to access.





  • Hi, yes, this is a very good server, no bias whatsoever 😊

    We do Originals, Plus, and First content. Podcasts can be requested but I’ll have to do those manually. Sometime soon we’ll also be doing Curiosity Stream, HD nebula videos (non-exclusive content but higher bitrate than on youtube), and classes (whenever yt-dlp adds support for it.) Plus a bot to automatically do requests :)

    I also have a release group there called iDoISO, where we do full ISO rips of 4K and BluRay discs and “lossless” MKVs (basically no encoding whatsoever.) We don’t have a lot of releases for them right now (it’s pretty pricey even for a few 4Ks) but I’ve put a lot of time and attention to each release, so please take a look :)

    If you have any questions or feedback don’t hesitate to reach out to me! (Either here, on Divolt, or over DMs!)

    EDIT: oh also we have a discord server if you don’t like Divolt, just know that all the links are under b64 and idoiso isn’t on it.





  • If you have dev experience you can get in touch with us over on Divolt :) Otherwise the best way to improve FMHY is to help with the wiki. We have a #to-do channel on our server which is a great starting point.

    As for project ideas specifically for FMHY, I don’t have any rn. We have a billion backups and projects like Divolt and Lemmy are additive (and really made for the whole community rather than just FMHY.) But maybe some of the other folks here have some ideas.


  • Basically. If you go to a certain website, that’s one instance, and if you go to another website (that’s also on Lemmy), that’s a different one.

    Are you sure you’re talking about this one (And you’re on this site?) Double checked it isn’t your own internet? By “down” do you mean some posts don’t work, all posts, or you can’t access the site at all? Also, are you far from where the server is hosted from, which is Europe?


  • AFAIK this server has had 100% uptime (but I’m not the hoster so I can’t say for certain. We definitely never encountered any major downtime or crash.) There are hourly restarts to fix the image service, maybe that’s what you’re referring to? Those only last a few moments and other instances, like lemmy.world, do it too. (In fact they do it at every 30 minutes, which we’ve considered doing too)
