Support (lemm.ee)

What options do we have to deal with suspected downvote brigading or voting abuse on lemmy and what do we do to report it

Just starting this week, when I first visit lemm.ee, I used to be logged in auytomatically, every time, but now I have to manually choose to login. My browser (Firefox on Ubuntu) definitely knows my username and password still.

Then, I can click around, go from page to page as I want, but if I hit F5 to refresh the page, or right click and choose the reload icon, I do get the page reloaded, but now I am not logged in.

I've tried disabling my (5) extensions but still saw this issue.

I tried completely erasing my cache in Firefox. Same issue still.

ETA: I tried explicitly logging out and logging back in (again). Same issue still.

This is only happening on lemm.ee.

Any ideas why Lemme doesn't want to keep me logged in?

Thanks!

ETA -- Thursday night: I made sure I am clearing cookies along with the cache. The problem remains. And, as @[email protected] said, the expiration date on the "jwt" cookie lemmee sets does expire in 3023. I installed an extension so I could edit that, set it to 2Dec 13 2025, saved the cookie. But still refreshing the page causes me to be logged out. This is just an annoyance at this point, not a big deal, but some sort of resolution eventually would be great. Thanks for any other ideas.

EDIT: Solved this by adding "English" to my languages in account settings. Solution from a comment by @[email protected]

For some reason I can't see any posts/comments on hexbear or by users from hexbear. I don't have the instance blocked or muted or anything. I can click the communities and bring them up, but they don't show user content. This is specifically only on my account too. It doesn't matter if I'm on an app or on the website. There isn't anything I can find that causes this. I would like to see posts by hexbear users so this is pretty annoying.

I often find embedded images from other instances straight up don't appear, while embedded images from lemm.ee take a really long time to show up (and sometimes don't at all)

For example, the top comment here has an embedded image but it's not showing on lemm.ee: https://lemm.ee/post/38434336

An even weirder thing is that it thinks youtube links are also images, and tries caching them.

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to ask. But I noticed [email protected] only has one mod and they appear to be inactive. I can help mod it (rather than have it shut down). Thanks.

On some communities the header image and community logo is broken, e.g. here: https://lemm.ee/c/idm

I'm the mod there, I haven't changed images since I started the community, a year ago. If I click on the Edit community button, I can see both images on the sidebar.

If I comment somewhere and link to external image with the markdown syntax ![](...) images not showing up. This works in post bodies, it only affects comments.

Created a test post here, you can see the image in the first comment is not visible: https://lemm.ee/post/38021843

Edit: This may be related: https://lemm.ee/post/37717282

This suggests it's likely federation issues

Edit:

Examples:

I've just realised, my post weren't getting attentions

I checked, there's a federation problem with lemm.ee

Hi!

So today, I made three image posts, and all of them have broken thumbnails such as this one

and it seems to be showing up broken for other users too, not just me. I'm uploading images the same as usual and the thumbnails for my older posts were fine.

Is it the linking of the on topic and highly relevant youtube videos?

Am I to find alternative videos to link to every time I discuss electoral reform? That's what I'm getting here. I just want to make sure that's what you want.

And would uploading the same videos with new URLs count as a new link and thus wouldn't be spam? Just trying to figure out the rules here.

Appreciate your time.

The servers have been really slow lately. Any updates on when this might get fixed?

Yes, I'm the very same ~~moron~~ person who accidentally deleted his community, then had it restored by our excellent admin / site-runner a month or two ago. Yup!

Now for today's stupid-idiot complaint:

Around June 9th I found that I could no longer display images in comments & posts. The specific problem seemed to stem from some broken code that was being auto-added, namely:

"https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url="

IIRC my co-mod opened a thread on this stuff around a week ago." And... in the words of the kids? "Shizzle's still broke." I.e., the code still doesn't work, and still breaks every attempt to share images.

But sadly, there's more. Namely, it seems that lemm.ee communities are no longer showing up in one of the significant FV search engines, i.e. "lemmyverse.net."

For example, one of our biggest communities here on lemm.ee, i.e. "movies" is now totally missing from the results. So, (currently) every time people look for stuff on search engines like that, lemm.ee communities will be invisible to them.

https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=movies

I thought this was a boost issue, but even using lemm.ee's web site, when browsing to my Nikon subscription (https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected]) I don't see any post. If I go to the same community from lemmy.world's own site, I can see recent posts: https://lemmy.world/c/nikon I noticed the same problem in other communities (but I thought the issue was my lemmy client). Can this be fixed?

I used to regularly put images in comments by using ![](). Suddenly that does not work anymore, help!

It stopped working for me (and also another user) a few days ago. Until I post the comment it is fine but when I post it, the url of the image is getting automatically changed into a format that does not work.

Before posting it looks like this:

![](https://i.imgur.com/yFXLOOY.jpg)

However, posting it changes the url into this (non working) url

![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FyFXLOOY.jpg)

I will post the same image as a comment in this thread from two different accounts to illustrate.

How did this suddenly change, I never had problems posting images in comments before?

What can I do to fix this? I like posting images in comments and would be very happy if I could go back to it?

So I had made a post regarding sorting posts not working, but I have noticed another issue where some communities just don't have some older posts. I have tried both on web and on android app, and it's the same, tweaked some settings too. A demo video (GIF) showcasing the problem and my account settings are attached in below Imgur link: https://imgur.com/a/8X8AQpI

It is showing unread messages but I have no unread message.

I'm a mod of /c/conservative and we have a troublesome user who keeps making new accounts to evade our bans.

Please, IP ban him. I can give you the details.

Noticed this several days ago. I wanted to be active in this community: https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected]

However, as you can see by comparing to lemmy.ml's own version of the community, lemm.ee is not properly updating comments or point totals: https://lemmy.ml/c/tf2

When I left my own comment on a post there, it did federate to other instances, but it's not being updated on lemm.ee.

I've noticed something similar with other lemmy.ml communities, large and small. Compare:

https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected] and https://lemmy.ml/c/steam/

Politics as well:

https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected] and https://lemmy.ml/c/politics

And probably others as well. I've checked to make sure my language isn't set to undetermined and I've also tried viewing the communities while logged out.

There's also something bugged about trying to subscribe to any of lemmy.ml's communities. They appear on my profile and feed as a sub, but visiting the communities themselves, I've been stuck on "subscribe pending" for several days. Clicking the button repeatedly to make another attempt to subscribe doesn't work. Not a huge deal since they still show up in my feed, but it might be related.

I subscribed (or think I did) to a community on another instance, but the button went from "Subscribe" to "Subscribe Pending" and has stayed that way for days (see image).

I didn't think anything of it but noticed this morning my comments posted from my lemm.ee account weren't showing on another instance (kbin.social) where I have an account. Other federated accounts are showing on both.

Is there something funky going on when it says "Subscribe Pending" or is everything working as expected?

For whatever reason when I attempt to login on firefox or chrome from my iPhone 11, I get the infinite spinning circle. Anyone else experienced this?

not sure if the error is on my end, but when I try to add an icon or a banner, this error shows up

SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<', " <he"... is not valid JSON

How do I fix this?

I’ve been frequently having posts and replies that I’m trying to make just sit with a spinning wheel and never actually going through. I suspect this post may do the same but hopefully I’ll eventually get it posted. This happens when I’m posting to a local community or to a federated community and from both desktop and mobile (both web, there isn’t a client for my phone). Is this a known bug?

It seems I sometimes (most times?) don't see all the comments, or even any comments at all. Even if it under a post says "2 comments", and I click on that, I still don't see any comments. Is this a language thing? I have "Undetermined" set in my profile.
