Admin. Music maker from Colorado. Music is at https://music.knova.net. I also run dartboard.social (akkoma microblog) and links.dartboard.social (Lemmy).___

I was against it at first, but there’s probably a lot of value in communities spinning up their own domains and hosting their own focused communities. Instead of a central Lemmy.world which hosts many different communities, we should have lemmyPics.com and lemmyMusic.com and MaleFashionAdvice.com that all run Lemmy software, and then people can subscribe in from remote instances easily.
There’s still a place for general instances in this model too, but I think these communities might get off the ground easier with a $12 domain name and cloud hosting services than trying to all be the next Reddit.
Very basic but enough to get started/ https://novakeith.net/2023/06/14/setting-up-lemmy-on-a-digital-ocean-droplet/
I’m not getting Microsoft Office or Apple quality mail clients, or word editors, but the fact that it’s always available to me is enough to make the trade off worth it. YMMV
I did end up using the docker, probably circa 2019, but I recall trouble with the nginx config as well as some of the required docker networking.
For me it’s 100% Nextcloud. It was a pain to get working at first (and I’m dreading the day it breaks, if that happens). But it is so much more than just a self-hosted Dropbox solution:
It forces Reddit’s hand even more IMO; if you start forcing a sub to stay on a certain topic by admin order (and not by mod’s / community “owner” choice), it really sets a weird tone for the community
Question about Vaultwarden. How does sync work? My browser extension for Bitwarden auto syncs to their server, is that possible with Vaultwarden? Or is it more for manual backup?
Thank you for !space@lemmy.link !
This is my journey too
Yeah, mine used to be listed but now its not :(
Yeah that’s just dumb.
I have loved the forum experience since about 25 years ago. I honestly don’t think I’m past it.
It’s insane that any CEO would point to Twitter and say, “that’s the model we want to follow”. They are making like 5 figures worth of money on subscriptions, they have lost tons of advertising due to their content policies in the Elon era, and people generally feel unsafe so a bunch of people left the platform. What is redeeming about any of that?
BTW, the OP on Raddle was spamming that message around Reddit last week and directing people to Raddle. I think he has a bone to pick with the developers’ politics more than anything.
I think swapping from one API to another is not just a drop in replacement; it might be easier to start fresh from the ground up.
Disclaimer: I am not a developer so I honestly don’t actually know
My question is. Isn’t all of this true regardless of whether people block them or not? Meta still has a huge audience and they could still do everything you outlined here.
Love the version from Okonokos. Fits so perfectly into the set list
Yup. I’ve always maintained if you have ~4 cars behind you, it’s time to pull over and let them pass, then resume your journey. No shame in that
I’m the tech savvy guy in the family. I’ve always said that I keep windows around for gaming and some level of music production. However, if this happens with Windows 12, I’ll move 100% to Linux and deal with the ramifications. Most of my game collection is on Steam which I know has some Linux support now for certain titles.
