Thanks, I’ll look into that shortly.
Um, the Anarchist Code of Conduct link in the sidebar seems to lead to some sort of bot honeypot. Is that intentional? I’m trying to figure out our server stance on copyright (yes I know, anarchist, but I wanted to check)
PM’s should be working now as well.
I’ll look into the instance stuff not updating.
As for the CoC it’s hosted on dbzer0, I can’t help you with that but if you ask in their Matrix chat they may be able to diagnose why you’re hitting the honeypot.
As for quokk.au’s stance on copyright, it’s anti-copyright but I also do not want to be hosting or directly linking to pirated/illegal content (i.e. torrents) so as to not invite potential issues.
Just so we’re not spamming !fediverse@lemmy.world with bug hunting, do you mind sending me a PM or joining the Matrix channel ?
