A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I had to reinstall my local instance, and wasn't able to import my old database. That meant I had to go re-subscribe to everything and even worse, nothing on my account will actually federate. Comments I make on the "main" admin account won't federate anywhere, because the instances see that "old" user with the same name, but exchange is different.
So I had to create this second account, and use this to comment on things with. It's a pain, but hopefully it gets better. Even if it's just being able to export my subscriptions so I don't have to try to find them all again.
