I can access many of the broken communities from external links and I might even be able to create posts in them from the UI but I cannot access their links directly from the UI, and they also don’t load from my mobile App.

https://programming.dev/c/programmer_humor, https://programming.dev/c/teach_programming, and https://programming.dev/c/data_structures still seem to be completely broken. Might need to investigate what’s happening for those as well.

Site is completely broken. Really hope they get it it fixed. A lot of other communities are still broken and its been over 30 days.

Any ETA on when these issues might be fixed @[email protected] @[email protected]?

People can use it to get updates on the instance itself, just because they don’t have accounts here doesn’t mean things on this instance do not effect them, such as planned outages or federation bugs.

Also since users from other servers who participate here are still part of this community, and may want to provide feedback in discussions related to the server or even provide suggestions for how to improve the programming.dev instance in general. I think locking other users out of the instance’s meta communities is honestly bad practice and enforces tribalism in the Fediverse.

Instances aren’t just servers that communities are hosted on, they are larger meta communities themselves, and people who participate in our communities also participate in our instance in general as if it were one larger community.

It can’t. It requires invasion of privacy to verify information about the individual they don’t have the right to access.

Digital age verification goes against privacy. Let’s not delude ourselves into thinking it can.

Maybe that would be a good feature request or something that could maybe be added to Pangora?

Totally agree with this. I was trying to do CSS theming on my personal website on SDF to try and make it look nicer but I gave up and just went without it because it never worked right. It’s a crappy website anyway with a lot of problems (doesn’t have correct margins so on anything outside specific resolutions it looks wonky).
