Why is Lemmy.ml blocked?

https://infosec.pub/post/37221653

Why is Lemmy.ml blocked? - Infosec.Pub

I’m new to the Lemmiverse so I’m just starting to learn the history among instances, but I don’t understand blocking Lemmy.ml [http://Lemmy.ml] as it’s the developer’s instance, which also hosts several other significant communities. Just curious why that instance is blocked because I didn’t find anything by searching. Thanks.

Some images are broken

Some images are broken - Infosec.Pub

Some images from other instances are broken when viewing through infosec.pub, e.g. https://infosec.pub/post/31437828 [https://infosec.pub/post/31437828]. It is also not trivial to get the original image URL.

Fair warning about vote manipulation

Fair warning about vote manipulation - Infosec.Pub

I have no idea why this is a thing, but it’s come to my attention that there are several accounts here that are engaging in vote manipulation. This is fair warning that if it continues, I’ll be suspending the accounts involved.

One of your users is committing voter fraud

One of your users is committing voter fraud - Ponder.cat

I usually wouldn’t care about this kind of semi-trivial issue, since it’s so hard to prevent that it’s pretty much inevitable, but anyway: There’s a long-time infosec.pub user that has multiple accounts and likes to make comments and then upvote their own comment from their alts. And, also, predictably, they have some childish behavior in the comments in addition, adjacent to the desire to bolster their own comments so they can “win” the discussion. Is this something the infosec.pub community cares about or wants to do something about? I’m pretty sure I’ve reported them in the past without much coming of it.

Future of Infosec.pub

https://infosec.pub/post/24873022

Future of Infosec.pub - Infosec.Pub

It seems like Lemmy took off 2 years ago with the announcement of Reddit’s API blocking 3rd party apps. Many instances popped up, and some disappeared equally fast. More people have now moved over since the actual announcement becoming alive. I’m a bit new to the decentralized hosts with federation/mesh social networks on the web, and are wondering if anyone with long time experience using something like Mastadon would shine a perspective on how these services usually operate? Does popular instances suddenly disappear, resulting in people losing contact with each other? losing progress, reputation, communities and their history? Since it’s open source, and it’s meant to be run by the people, for the people. How is the stability and long-term plan for Infosec.pub? I would like to stick around this service for hopefully many years. Most of the instances in the instance section (https://infosec.pub/instances [https://infosec.pub/instances]) is gone. I would be interested to see the statistics on how long all these instances lived before they were shut down, and compare those numbers to the big instances people are signing up to. Lastly, there seems to be no way to migrate your account to another instance [1] [https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985], so long-term reliability is indeed important.

Introducing old.infosec.pub - Infosec.Pub

Hi all. As requested, I just added the mlmym interface to infosec.pub. It approximates the old style reddit interface. So far, it has some… quirks. For example, as far as I can tell, you cannot post with an “undetermined” language.
