It's broken on every instance, so spread the word.

So I've tried to migrate the communities I've started on Reddit to this instance, but from what I notice, I'm able to make 2-3 posts (copying stuff from the communities to populate them and make people more willing to move over to Lemmy), but when I make the 4th post, it stalls, a spinning wheel shows up instead of the Create button, the thing never gets posted unless I refresh the page and paste again everything. Sometimes I have to this multiple times until the post gets published.

This is quite tedious.

Is there any way of getting approval for this stuff, or turn off the said "cooldown"?

Hi, I've been trying to upload an avatar for the past 10 min unsuccessfully (this also goes for the banner btw).

My avatar is, at this point, 3.7kb... After massive compressing. It is a jpg.

This seems like it should be small enough by all metrics, I can't even compress the image any more than this. And yet I still get "file too large" error messages.

Is there something specifically about lemm.ee that I should know about image uploads? Is it the file format? Or just a bug?

Hello,

Basically, title.

Would it be possible to get appointed as mod for [email protected] ?

If you want more context: https://lemm.ee/post/12111335

Tldr: we are looking for a new home for the [email protected] community, and would like to host it here, on lemm.ee!

I've tried x-posting the linked URL to the lemm.ee saxophone community via both Jerboa app on Android and via the web. But, both methods fail and I'm wondering why. I read through some of the posts here and the original FAQ post, so I'm wondering am I unable to x-post because accounts aren't migrated between the two instances? And, would that mean I'd need to create a lemm.ee account? Is there another way than that?

Thanks, all.

hey guys,

I am new here and wanted to add a avatar. but I keep getting the message

upload too large

i used png and jpg both with 350x350 and 100x100 resolution which were smaller than 100 kb. all four options failed

can somebody please enlighten me how I can upload an awesome picture of mine

the endpoint response of https://lemm.ee/pictrs/image returns response code 413 with


413 Request Entity Too Large

<center><h1>413 Request Entity Too Large</h1></center>
<hr><center>nginx</center>


as far as I can tell is maybe the some headers are missing from my side I do not know what the backend does.

I like to browse in New and at times, it's overwhelmed by posts from the various reddit repost bots. I don't find those posts super useful and would prefer the Lemmy content, so I've tried to block the bots - but when I try to go to their profile, for instance,

https://lemm.ee/u/[email protected]

I get the busy spinner endlessly and it doesn't load. Loading it directly (not clicking from another page) I get the Cloudflare 504 Gateway Timeout that says 'Host Error'. Oddly, I can view it when signed out, but that doesn't help of course.

I have been uploading comic art images by Moebius for several weeks almost daily to the [email protected] community, where I´m a moderator myself. All those images have disappeared. Modlog says the images have been deleted by "admin". Modlog gives no reason for this but says the images were later restored by "admin" but that is not true. All my comic art posts have been destroyed and are empty posts now. I was not even contacted a single time about this and honestly can´t think of a reason because I had uploaded exclusively "safe for work" and apolitical material. We are trying to build a community for european graphic novels like "Tintin", "Lucky Luke" and "The Incal" and I put a lot of love in those posts because I want to help make our community interesting and grow. However - I have been stongly discouraged to contribute content now that I have seen it gets arbitrarily wiped by anonymus admins. How can I find out what happened, who deleted my stuff and why they did so? How can I avoid this happeing to my posts in the future?

I'm specifically looking for these two:

They exist, but I cannot find them through the lemm.ee search, so I cannot subscribe to them. I tried all tricks of which I'm aware several times. I checked wether we blocked or defederated each other, which does not seem to be the case.

So what's the issue, and how to fix?

You're also welcome to post other communities related to vaping, e-liquids, electric cigarettes.

I'm not sure where to look for information about general Lemmy federation updates, but I'm wondering if the "Sort by Active" issues have been improved. As of a month ago, people said that it was best to use "Top Twelve Hours" because of some bug with "Active". Does anyone know if the problem has been improved?

61
 
 

Realizing now I posted I may have posted in the wrong community originally so here it is again:

I started the process of enabling 2 factor for my lemm.ee account but was unable to complete it. Now I’m unable to login and Forgot Password isn’t able to help (still requires 2fa). Does anyone have a solution to this problem? I’ve been unsuccessful in trying to contact Sunaurus.

Title.

I was uploading an image to add to my post, but it kept saying it was too large. Is it because it is too large in terms of kilobytes or megabytes, or is it because of an error on my end?

64
 
 

I'm looking for some communities where I can ask for specific video game suggestions, but I'm having trouble doing that. Do you know any like that?

65
 
 

I'm not sure if I ever verified my email or not but I reset my password and it looks like it goes through but I can't log in, any advice? Thanks in advance! Edit: searched through my emails and doesn't look like I ever got a verification email, or if so I can't find it. I originally tried to make this account a few months ago. Typing in the correct password brings me back to the lemm.ee homepage but I'm not logged in (log in is still in the top right), and using the wrong password tells me "invalid password"

SOLVED! Thanks sunaurus!

So what sort of size as in physical and storage wise, are allowed for account avatars and banners for this instance?

I tried to upload a 2kb avatar and still got the message it was too large!

Hey folks. A question for you.

I'm RickRussell_CA on lemmy.world, kbin.social, lemmy.ml, and beehaw.org.

When I saw that lemm.ee was coming up in the rankings, I decided that perhaps I should stake my claim here. But, as you may guess, there is already a RickRussell_CA on lemm.ee.

It's even using the profile picture that I had originally used on lemmy.world. It's made 1 comment (on a since deleted post) and no submissions.

I've used the "Forgot password" link and it's definitely not my account, as it doesn't recognize my email.

I understand that this is a risk under the Fediverse model, but I'm a bit worried that somebody staked this out as a way of impersonating me.

Is there any way to address this?

EDIT: lemm.ee admins saw this post, and banned the account. Thanks to them!

I subscribe to [email protected] and there is a recent post about Python and Excel. I can access the article but I can't see any comments while using my lemm.ee account. I switched to my lemdro.id account and I can see the comments. I'm curious why there is a disconnect. Is it because the posting came from someone on kbin? This is the link to the posting that I grabbed while logged into lemm.ee:

https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/372609

How can I block meme, political nonsense anti-social posts, and shitpost instances?

Is there a way to do it with Infinity for Lemmy? I saw a tutorial for using unlock but I use android apps for lemmy. I want to shut out the basement dungeon naive political kids.

I searched for information and Google pointed me to a Lemmy posting at: https://lemmy.world/post/1697414

My main account is this one on lemm.ee and I would like to comment in that post from this account, but I can't figure out how to view that specific post from this account. Is there some trick with putting a "!" in front of that path?

71
 
 

Hi, I enabled 2FA on my lemm.ee account, but I cannot find the TOTP to my Aegis or Bitwarden accounts. I tried resetting my password but it still requires 2FA authentication. Is it possible to reset my account to remove 2FA authentication? My account name is [email protected] (posting from my lemmy.world account)

72
 
 

This is my second account (I've ditched my first account after it's been stalked by an obsessive troll) and I'm already finding this website to be so much worse than Reddit. There's this user named "Dr Wesker" who keeps accusing me of being a troll and writing "fantasy ragebait". He comments on all of my posts obsessively. I've blocked him but he can still see and comment on my posts. How do I report this troll? Is there even a mechanism on Lemmy for reporting trolls?

73
 
 

EDIT: I just tried again and now it worked.

Hi, I tried to crosspost this post to these 3 communities:

And in all 3 cases I got a 404 with HTTP Response::

{"error":"rate_limit_error"}

I've been able to x-post other posts, so it doesn't seem to be a general issue.

Thanks

I tried to join this instance today, but never received the conformation email. When I tried to register, it said my email was already in use (for the first time I'm guessing).

Is there anything I can do to resolve this issue?

Thank you.

FINAL-EDIT: I'm not sure what was the original issue, but tweaking uMatrix setting fixed it for me and it's also working for the user that reported the problem.

I don't know if this is an issue with lemm.ee or with lemmy.dbzer0.com, so I crosspost it here too.

EDIT: It may be an issue with (the many plugins I have on) Firefox, it works on MsEdge. I will try to debug it a bit more.

Example: this post image is visible from lemm.ee and mlmym.org/lemm.ee

But not from lemmy.dbzer0.com

I tried with these 2 links and none of them work:

There are other examples on the same community:
