People in one of the Piefed communities thinks it’s a bug related to silenced instances.

Probably not a bug, but is there any issue with the lemmy.dbzer0.com instance? The instance itself seems to load in Summit, but none of the communities populate posts.

I first assumed it was a defederation issue (although I couldn’t find a way to confirm?) but https://piefed.social/c/adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com loads fine, and it loads fine in Connect for Lemmy under my Piefed account, which leads me to think it’s a Summit issue. But maybe I’m misunderstanding how federation works.

But then again, if I change accounts/instances in Summit, posts do populate, so maybe it is a Piefed issue. Sorry, genuinely baffled, not sure how both can be true.

More confirmation that URLCheck is fantastic.

Please normalize sanitizing links in your social circles.

Thank you!

Not that I want to defend Plex which is definitely enshittifying, but I don’t think most people are buying Plex to stream their own media. They’re doing it so other people can stream their media. Not wanting to buy a domain and set up port forwarding or a reverse proxy or whatever doesn’t seem unreasonable to me. My grandparents are never going to use Tailscale, and even if they did, I don’t think there are any Tailscale smart TV apps.

Disclosure: I run Plex and Jellyfin (and Navidrome) in parallel, and bought a lifetime pass years ago.
