If you don't like the layout of regular Lemmy, feel free to use these :) (They can also be used for instances other than ours. Except for mlmym, they only have a single instance mode and no default instance config)
And in case you're wondering why we aren't using old.lemmy
, a.lemmy
etc instead...
...it's because CF wants money for that and I'm not paying for that shit lmao
I wouldn't too because I don't think that there's any technical reason to make the user pay for that. Or maybe there is, I'm not very tech savvy.
With how cloudflare is setup, there technically is, but it's also bullshit. Basically they have two certificates for SSL (which allows for https):
example.com
and*.example.com
. These cover everything fromexample.com
tosuperlongsubdomain.example.com
, but NOT, say,a.b.example.com
. That would require something like*.b.example.com
.This is kinda BS though, as certificates are pretty much free nowadays. I guess it saves on server load? But it's so minimal that there really is no reason to charge for it, especially not with a monthly subscription. ($120/yr for certs!!)
