- Comment on Discord customer service data breach leaks user info and scanned photo IDs 5 days ago:
Ah good, what everyone said would happen is exactly what is happening.
Sure its not the data verification company directly, but proves that the whole process is so sufficiently complex that your ID could end up with multiple different providers and then be stolen. Not great.

- Comment on Admins: Instnace randomly running extremely slowly? Check for this 2 weeks ago:
FYI these are all on ASN 49453
The other option is to block/challenge the ASN
- Comment on Slow server responses? 3 weeks ago:
Definitely something was up, the server maxed out.
Seems similar behaviour to when someone imports their settings from another instance, which caused a lot of problems during the .ee migration, however I’ll see if I can find any other reasons for it.
- Comment on What are best practices for browsing lemmy.zip? 3 weeks ago:
Voyager, blorp has an android app too, there’s loads in the play store. I use the web view personally though
- Comment on What are best practices for browsing lemmy.zip? 3 weeks ago:
Hey, welcome! Blorp is under active development so might not yet be feature complete. The other UIs (“frontends”) are all quite established now. You can use photon (m.lemmy.zip) on desktop or mobile, and its fully feature complete.
I usually stick to Hot/All, generally a good turnover of posts for me :)
Hot is the most upvoted posts recently, active is the most comments. I believe scaled promotes smaller communities, but I don’t use it much personally.

I enjoyed the fuck out of the beta/demo thing, can’t wait for the release

Well, thats incredibly worrying. Thanks for the info.

Runs on one of these: www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ax42/
- Comment on Lemmy.zip Server Update September 2025 5 weeks ago:
Yeah its fine, by geoblocking the UK traffic we’re outside of the scope of the OSA. While it is admittedly an odd position to be in, there’s nothing inherently wrong with it.

Weve had Alice banned for like a year unfortunately, which is why you won’t see much/any activity, especially if that account is a mod in the community.
- Comment on Lemmy.zip Server Update September 2025 5 weeks ago:
Nope, should be all good with HC, for example lemmy.zip/u/AINewsBot@hilariouschaos.com should show the latest posts for you

Us person here. Does that mean that donations are tax deductible?
We’re a UK-based non-profit company, not a US 501©(3) charity. That means donations aren’t tax deductible in the US.
There are apparently avenues, but we’re not at the stage of looking into that yet.

- Comment on 451 error on Lemmy.zip media? ("Unavailable due to legal reasons") 1 month ago:
It’s not a paid feature (we don’t pay) - its their CSAM scanning tool. In this case, because we use the Lemmy proxy, it’s taken down everything pattern matching
https://i.lemmy.zip/api/v3/image_proxywhich is less than helpful. - Comment on 451 error on Lemmy.zip media? ("Unavailable due to legal reasons") 1 month ago:
Thanks for the heads up! It is thankfully a false positive from another server that tripped the CSAM scanner. It shouldn’t take down all the images though, I guess that’s the risk of using it with the proxy. Pros and cons!
Just waiting on Cloudflare to resolve now, images should be back up shortly.
- Comment on Stop children using VPNs to watch porn, ministers told 1 month ago:
Honestly, country is gripped by clowns.
Would not be at all surprised to find the commissioner has shares or a financial interest in Age Verification companies.
- Comment on Stop children using VPNs to watch porn, ministers told 1 month ago:
Giving adults free access to high quality porn in exchange for stopping children using VPNs would probably be fairly effective.
- Comment on FFmpeg moves to Forgejo 1 month ago:
My response wasn’t regarding the geoblock, but to the above poster saying we block VPNs (which isn’t true)
But just so you’re aware, we dont geoblock federation traffic and all our posts, comments etc are federated without issue.
The only thing geoblocked is the UIs, so UK visitors can’t access the UI.
If your client tries to direct you to lemmy.zip rather than the crossposted article, then that client isn’t working properly and you should log a bug. Like any crosspost, the content federates fine.
Hope that clears it up for you.
- Comment on 1 month ago:
Sorry but your posts are FUD. You’re trying to equate people misusing tlds (which happens across many other tlds) as somehow lemmy.zip is “bad” instance that should be avoided.
Not only is that not true, you are also purposely misunderstanding how federation works as if youre somehow safer not interacting with lemmy.zip. Again, not remotely true.
If you want to block .zip TLDs you go for it, no one is stopping you, but you may as well block .com TLDs while you’re at it as that’s where most scams take place.
