But why in the shower? Can you not do that out the shower? Unclear why shower is involved.

Thanks :)

Pretty much. Yes its hosted in a datacenter for a monthly fee.

I asked lemmy.world admin about the missing ones and he is going to add them later tonight. They went missing due to the recent breach and have not been added back yet that is why there is a difference.

Actually it is patched already, but thank you for the concern.

Actually all the instances were from lemmy.world. lemmy.world just removed some recently for some reason (unknown to me) and I havent removed them from my list yet. I normally just sync the lists every now and again. I dont have any personal views, i just pull the list from lemmy.world and let them decide. If there is a difference it was because eith er my list is slightly out of date by a few days, or the bot script found something ans was run at a different time than they ran it. Essentially I dont host any content so there isnt much to moderate, thus my views are largely irrelevant.

There is a script the admins of various instances have shared to block instances that have bots, as well as the normal making new sign ups harder for bots. If there is anything suspicious I normally make registration require validation as well until it can be resolved.
