Honestly kind of a hilarious misunderstanding of Lemmy too. Beehaw will never replace reddit because they explicitly do not want to and have already taken aggressive steps to make sure that they don’t (i.e. detailed application requirements and defederating multiple instances).
For Lemmy in particular I would suggest joining the Matrix chat. There’s quite a lot of activity related to working out and reporting issues that happens there.
I would suggest joining us on the Lemmy matrix space, particularly the “Lemmy Instance Admin” channel. It’s much easier to help in semi-real time.
Yeah, after I got my lemmy and matrix servers up and running I started looking at doing mail myself… The rabbit hole just kept getting deeper and darker, and MTAs seems to have stopped evolving in the 90s so I gave up. Email for my lemmy instance is now handled by Google. I’ve always used on of the big players (currently Outlook because I got a good username when they opened up the outlook.com domain) for my personal email.
I’ve never been a Zelda fan, but this list makes me think I should try BotW :D
I’m with you on this one. I got moderately stuck at one point pretty early on in the game (I’m not sure, but I think my save was probably bugged). Anyway, I put game down and never touched it again. Didn’t feel like I had lost anything at all.
Currently a 1CPU/2GB RAM Linode instance for 26 users. Linode’s pricing gets insane as you scale up though so I will definitely be looking elsewhere if I need to scale much bigger. I think I could get away with 1gb of RAM at half the cost right now, but I’m also hosting a Matrix homeserver on this VPS and Synapse is a hungy boy.
Their tools kits are also super solid.
I know it’s probably not the target audience for this, but the idea of safely sharing secrets by pasting them into unknown websites is… terrifying to say the least.
Lemmy, mostly :D. I also recently started up my own Matrix home server. I took a stab at email, but it was more trouble than it’s worth considering my relatively newly acquired cloud hosting IP is on several blacklists. Now that I actually have a server running again Gitea might be next on the list of services that gets added.
Even better is probably the Github issue tracker
You almost certainly want to outsource email to something like SendGrid anyway. Hosting your own email server is harder than it’s worth these days.
Yep. Twitter was never my jam so Mastodon doesn’t appeal to me at all. I have been aware of PeerTube for quite a while but the content just isn’t there. I’ve been aware of Lemmy for a month or two and finally signed up a week ago. It definitely feels like it has the potential to be a viable reddit alternative. I’m looking forward to it.
Post it here. Presumably it’s lemmy.villa-straylight.social?
:D That’s sort of what this post is. I figured most people interested in lemmy would probably be able to figure it out, but yes you got it.
Fake your user numbers
I kind of consider that too. You do actually have to do some basic stuff to show up on the list in addition to the user requirement, so I don’t actually think it is about filtering out private instances, but maybe you’re right. I can’t actually figure out what constitutes an active monthly user though. I did make a (legitimate non-spam) comment on a post in another instance from my alt account and that doesn’t seem to be enough.
Well, I just made a post over there so we’ll see. I don’t have any emotional or other attachment to my reddit account anyway, so if they ban me I won’t be sad about it.
The devs changed it so that you have to have 5 monthly active users to show up.
Same here. I only have a couple of users though so I don’t show up on join-lemmy.org anymore. Not sure how to gather more users now. I figure if I do actually get up to a hundred or so users I’ll set up a LibrePay account and expand based on available funds.
It looks like videos are loaded directly from the original instance instead of being proxied through your home instance. Firefox doesn’t like that by default.
Another vote for Synology here. I have 2 RT2600 and 1 RT1600 between myself and my parents houses. They have been completely bullet proof and the oldest one is going on 7 years old now.
