I used to be on #pod.orkz.net, any of you orkerz out there?
I hadn't been on the D* for a while, and when I wanted to log in again today, everything was gone... the whole pod including of course, my posts and my friends as well this made me very sad... I hope to find my old buddies back and make some new friends as well. People used to know me there as Rupsje and/ or Lilith.
Welcome back. I looked sometimes but just noticed the profile picture was gone. This is a strange aspect of diaspora, as your posts were still present on my pod, everything looked normal. So I could send you your own posts now, if you miss something.
Thank you @Adam Hunt Merci @Miguela @Christian Bredlow 🌿 Thanks! That IS strange... and I'm not sure that's according to the right to be forgotten or is that only a law in the Netherlands? Because this way I can no longer choose to delete my content but it still is available to others...? I would like to see my posts but I can no longer see them, not even from this new account. Thank you! @Felix Tiede and @stuart_d@diasp.org
I think it's more like a cache memory, @tattedbikerlady@diasp.nl, so that my pod doesn't have to load everything from your (old) pod every time I look at your page. I suppose it will disappear after some time. Some pictures are already gone.
But I don't know how to send you my screen. I put it in a pdf and uploaded here: https://files.catbox.moe/jvkf2g.pdf so you can read at least the texts. When you got it I can delete again.
Ah yes @Christian Bredlow 🌿 the cache thing makes sense. Thanks! that's quite a file! I have found the account too now and I can reshare the old content even..
You mean that the old orkz pod is no more @Anders Rytter Hansen? yes that is sad indeed... But I can understand in this setting that not all pods last forever. Looking back on the account, it's not the content that I shared that I miss, but the people I met there. And those I can still find back! :) so not all is lost ;) Thank you!
If I remember correctly the admins of pod.orkz.nl announced the closure by January 15 some time in December. For those not regularly visiting the pod obviously that time span was too short.
