About RetroFed
RetroFed

Welcome to the nostalgia-filled piefed instance of yesteryear.

Open Registration with Application questionnaire.

If you have a question or comment you can post in !meta@retrofed.com or message @DosDude@retrofed.com or @Die4Ever@retrofed.com

In case of downtime and/or emergency, we will post updates on @DosDude@mastodon.social

Some rules we try to uphold:

  • Be civil. Bigotry is not welcome. This includes (but is not limited to): transphobia, queerphobia, racism, ageism and ableism. We do not promote hate.
  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

For me at least, for months now, this instance is unavailable for multiple hours a day. Given the recent posts about the lemmy eco system being on a slight downwards trend, I don't think this additional load is caused by more users using this instance. Rather, I think that AI scrapers are using this instance to scrape lemmy. If I am correct, though only someone with access to the logs can check, I'd like to kindly ask for some sort of protection from AI scrapers. Both because I like being able to actually browse the instance and because I hate AI companies.
