To infinity and beyond
I am running my instance for myself only. I used the Hetzner Cloud service for it. Surprisingly, it works on the cheapest instance (CX11)! And I mean, that is dead cheap.
I’m running Debian. If you want to check out everything yourself, feel free to do so. However, if you want an easy-as-they-come install, I would definitely recommend https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy . It takes care of everything. From the webserver, via de database to the SSL certificate.
Besides what everyone said… you are the boss. You control what can and can’t be done.
Eg. Lemmy.ml decided that users can’t create communities anymore on that instance. Easily solvable but a limitation to that instance.
If you own the instance, you decide what can be done and what not.
Beyoncé. A lot of her songs. But certainly the ring one.
I have been with this idea for a very long time. But over time all the platforms got more and more greedy and I had the feeling that my privacy got more and more invaded.
Since that time, I have an Adblock and use DDG.
Sorry content creators.
More interested in the other 3 days challenge 😂💩

Is there a discount if I buy 3 seats? I got a couple of people that need to check the inside of a volcano.
Belgium: yes! We drink tap water. Straight from the tap. Hardness varies from city to city. At my home I have a filter to make the water softer. That helps the taste but also keeps all faucets etc running.
All of the others forgot to mention one thing. Currently there is a bug to subscribe to a community.
So if there is no button in the sidebar, that is because the bug.
Y’all are the best!
On lemmy.ml? I think never, or not in the foreseeable future.
Workaround: create an alt on an other instance (eg. Lemmy.world), create the community and invite your main as a moderator. Solved.
I did a write-up about it here: https://lemmy.ml/post/1487442
I love Mlem and use it almost all the time. I’m missing if I have a notification (but that for sure is in the pipeline) but I miss one more thing: saving pictures on my phone. For these things I switch to the safari version.
That would solve a large part. If it would function as an actual alt, you could also “federate” the communities all the alts are following. That would make it so much easier if an instance would stop. One could just start using an alt as a main.
I had no idea it even had a name. I’m learning a lot these days! Thnx!
Does this work? I don’t think that is possible. Also, the community making is not that big of a deal (see my post), it is more of a general idea that I have…
Agreed. But is it something we should be thinking about, or is the general feeling: “infamousbelgian, you are so badly overthinking right now…”
Agreed. However, the nice thing about the fediverse is that it is not “ruled” by someone with a lot of power. I don’t know, I’m just putting it out here…
The canonical makes sense for the search engine (eg Google). I would put the canonical on the source instance.
Leaves open the question what would happen if the source would disappear…
