Leminal Space is moving to the EU in 2026 - Leminal Space
The intention is to relocate all hosting services from east coast USA/Canada to
Germany in early January. This should have minimal impact on most users, but I
wanted to provide advance notice so everyone has the opportunity to delete their
account prior to the move should they disagree with having their data stored in
Germany, for whatever reason. If you wish to move instances, there is an account
export option on your settings page [https://leminal.space/settings].

Server Upgrade and Update to Lemmy 0.19.10

Server Upgrade and Update to Lemmy 0.19.10 - Leminal Space
Hello everyone. I hope you’re having/about to have an enjoyable weekend! A quick
update to let you all know the server had a significant upgrade yesterday. While
you may notice things are a little more zippy, the need for added performance
was definitely not the main driver for the upgrade. The main reason was the
ever-increasing size of the database, which had left us dangerously close to a
full disk! Unfortunately, this means our monthly server costs have almost
doubled, and while I haven’t been open to accepting donations in the past, we
have now passed a cost threshold where I feel it is appropriate. To this end, I
have added a couple of donation options to the sidebar. Donate, don’t donate,
it’s entirely up to you. I appreciate everyone’s circumstances are different,
and nothing is expected from you. In other news, we also updated to the latest
Lemmy 0.19.10 version yesterday. 🎉 While this is a fairly minor update, with
most development now focused on the next major version, it does introduce the
ability to delete PMs along with other content when a user is banned, which is a
major QoL improvement for admins. Importantly, it means no more manually
deleting Nicole’s flirtatious PMs from the database… You can see changes and
follow the discussion in the 0.19.10 thread

Pixelfed, but I can understand why. Will it only be seen as an alternative once
a critical mass of users move there? And can that happen if they don’t see it as
an alternative? Chicken and egg. I’m trying out, but it’s a little vapid when
everyone I know is on Instagram.
