Hey all, can anyone tell me the date we’re gona land on for the first anniverssary?

I guess it’ll be when the instance was spun up? Or i don’t know, maybe when it was a twinkle in Lodion’s eye?

      ICANN lookup is another source. According to them, aussie.zone was registered on 2023-06-08 05:26:09 UTC.

      So, yes. 8th of June would be a date I’d endorse. It’s also @lodion’s signup date. The oldest “regular” user is @BadlyDrawnRhino, who signed up on June 16th. You could argue that was the day we opened to the public and is more appropriate.

          I see what you mean, you pre-date June 16th. I actually didn’t know there was a week where signups were free-for-all and not admin approved. Rhino was the earliest user who was approved by an admin. Now I’m back to endorsing June 8th.

            I actually thought I did have to fill in one of those applications doo-dads, but I have accounts on a few other instances, so perhaps I’m getting mixed up.

            I think the vast majority of people joined on either June 10, 11, or 12, when rexxit was peaking, at least most of c/Melbourne did.

              I stuck with BaconReader until it stopped working on July 1. Then I just detoxed for a bit.
              After a couple of days, I looked into this whole Lemmy thing and then laughed out loud when I saw an old friend was running the Australian instance.

          Right next to the comment never shows dates on jerboa, sync, or on duckduckgo when i’ve checked. As the comment gets further away in time it turns into x months ago. Which is totally fine, apart from in this case.

          Cheers for the link! :)

          Edit: Okay, just checked the link. I now understand your reply. Lol, Cheers.
