When cross-posted >= 2, should go to a dedicated page like Reddit has had for a very long time… and allow easy viewing of who posted, date, number of comments, date of last comment, votes, etc.
In the real world, communities are independent entities, free to choose where and how they hang out. No one tells them what to do or where to go.
I guess the people who run Reddit really think none of their audience was educated by say… Snoopy… or seen a “no skateboarding” sign in their life. You can just hang out anywhere IRL!
most likely, yes. There was no notice of a planned outage, and the timing of them both going down within 15 minutes of each other. Lemmy server programming code isn’t very robust when it comes to performance, it is possible to busy up the database to a point that the site become unresponsive. I don’t know what is going on with lemmy.ml being entirely unreachable, the devs who run that server don’t normally work on weekends… and normally nginx responds with an error at minimum. Nothing at all is loading
lemmy.world is reachable, but no database connections, it has an “Error” page on every post I try to load. Which this post itself on Lemmy.world serves as example: https://lemmy.world/post/1578844
Lemmy.world down now for over 30 minutes, Lemmy.ml over an hour (I created this post on Lemmy.world before it went down). Distant Early Warning Sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrDj5XvZXX4
