I’ve just moved to a Boost annual prepaid plan. I was paying Belong $15 per month, but they’re about to bump the price to $21 per month… making it slightly more than the Boost option, but only on the wholesale network. Cheaper and better coverage? Sign me up!

Hey Dave, yeah I know about the issues with high latency federation. Have been in touch with Nothing4You, but not discussed the batching solution.

Yes losing LW content isn’t great… but I don’t really have the time to invest to implement a work around. I’m confident the lemmy devs will have a solution at some point… hopefully when they do the LW admins upgrade pronto 🙂

The biggest gotcha with 0.19.4, is the required upgrades to postgres and pictrs. Postgres requires a full DB dump, delete, recreate. Pict-rs requires its own backend DB migration, which can take quite a bit of time.

Nah, only if it were free… can’t see it being entertaining for more than 5 minutes.

Ok, want to see this just so I can say “went to Melbourne, saw poop”… but ticket prices turn me off.

Iddqd and idkfa are stuck in my head forever. Fragments of the others… idpispopd?

Thinking more CBD etc. We’re on Bourke st at Spencer st end. Think we’ll jump on a city bound tram and see what we see.

I may have dozed off for another couple of hours after my post. I blame jetlag from Perth, also I’m on holiday and the bed was cozy and warm.

Melbourne, why so cold?!
Anything fun on in the city today? We have some time to explore on foot, assuming we don’t freeze.

I did see mentioned of imgur being one site that has issues with the new feature. Will see where I can find that and look for a solution… I had assumed it would revert to previous behavior id proxy fails… my mistake for assuming.

Looks like the doovalacky to turn the hexagonal cap on the handle.

I agree and disagree…

I agree, modern media representation for healthy heterosexual male-male relationships are lacking. Which makes the toxic traits that are represented frequently more likely to be picked up by younger men/boys.

And I disagree…in the real world, there are plenty of healthy male relationships… part of the problem is that men tend to only display these aspects of themselves to their closest friends, for fear of toxic masculinity from others.

Parmi yes. Chips go under though.

Lots of germs going around Perth too, but based on this thread most of Melbourne is sick 🤢

Hey Melbourne, please warm up before I arrive with my family next week 😁

I’ve seen that myself. Sync works fine, web works fine… and Boost is inconsistent, so I can only put it down to being a Boost bug… but don’t haven’t been able to narrow it down any further.

I don’t have an iPhone, but Firefox on my Android phone works normally. Which browser are you using?

Mince on toast, aww yeah.

Votes missing from lemmy.world is expected, due to backend federation issues over long distances between servers.

I’ve seen some image issues on Boost too, but not in Sync. So I believe this is a Boost issue. But the image proxying feature is new and may have some bugs also.

It was removed deliberately during the reddit exodus in order to direct new Lemmy users elsewhere. Rather than to overload lemmy.ml further.
