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
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?
This chat community has been great for random discussions. !linux@lemmy.ml has some fun discussions so far. I’m biased, but I participate in my own !campingandhiking@links.dartboard.social community
You might want to link your self hosted instance so we can get a better sense of what’s going on here.
Check the GitHub! It’s linked at the bottom of the web page (“Code”)
I changed some stuff on the Lemmy-Ansible documentation for clarity, but I’m garbage at coding anything useful. Getting my head around rust or typescript is a real challenge from square zero.
I think even calling it Lemmy is not the right move. Yeah, Lemmy is the server software running on a bunch of instances. But we also have kbin, and new softwares will pop up and fork and come and go over time. Once we can do some kind of account or community level migration, it won’t matter whether you are on Lemmy or kbin or the next great thing. Everything will be federated so it will inter-op beautifully. If an unfriendly instance admin comes along, we can collectively cut and run with minimal interruption.
Thats still a way off from where we are now but the hard step was getting to the Fediverse in the first place. So, welcome to the newcomers among us.
I’ve used digital ocean with minimal fuss. I should write a start to finish guide on getting Lemmy going with one of their premade droplets.
Yeah, I told a guy today his hate of communism was totally his own prerogative, but he might want to put it aside to make a unified front against the impending Reddit changes. He flipped out on me and called me some choice words. Just another day on Reddit I guess.
