Happy Anniversary! (sub.wetshaving.social)

I see a few cakes next to usernames (my cake day is June 10th).

It has been an interesting year, so thanks for hanging in there!

This Lemmy instance is a nice place to hang out, so here’s to many more!

I worked on the database stuff some more today and ~~didn’t have any luck with getting federation of comments working again. I decided to upgrade the server to the new release, 0.19.4 even though it’s so new, with hopes that it might jump start some federation stuff – and so far it hasn’t!~~ finally got federation back to a working state, at least so it seems, maybe?! Thanks @Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me.

The new version has some neat new features, though.

Under your profile you can click “Uploads” and see all of the pictures you’ve uploaded. Some of them seem to be “lost”, but that’s par for the course. You can even delete the pictures. Yay!

Definitely a huge thanks to you and the others keeping the Lemmy instance up and running! Due to the "Reddit banning 3rd party apps shit show" last year, I was totally lost where to go. Mastodon simply wasn't the same with the strict character limit... Lemmy felt much more familiar from the first day on! Even though our wetshaving instance is small and cozy, sometimes a place to post your SOTD and ramble about your favourite scents is all you need 🥳

Yep, nothing wrong with not having a lot of users. Tost3, for example, has just under 200 registered users. We have fewer than that (although Lemmy doesn't show us the total number), but over 600 followers.

What is a Tost3 and how did you find it?

VisceralWatch told me about it! It stands for The Original Safety (forum version 3). Single edge only!
