You kind Sir/Lady/Gentleperson are making the fediverse a better place with this help. Thanks a bunch, gonna definitely ease my attempts at eventually self-hosting!

Sure thing, ranting is therapeutic and I wouldn’t miss the chance~

Didn’t know about Podman yet, I’ll probably give it a spin on some personal projects to get a bit more used to tools other than docker. Thanks for the great intro!

I joined to learn, still not self-hosting anything, but I intend to use an 11yo Compaq laptop (i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD) as a server while I’m still practicing. I intend to self-host a lemmy instance and a nextcloud server.

Thanks for everything you guys have been sharing I’ve already got some good leads, gonna try out YunoHost for starters

Same, a lot of YT alternatives seem ripe with alt-right garbage. I’m a leftist myself, but I can stand liberal content, however platforms like Rumble and Odysee’s feeds look awful right now

Feels like home, it’s been easy to use, albeit with some hiccups in terms of searching and subscribing to communities on different servers.

You mean this one right? https://famichiki.jp/@Tsutsuku/110537730270070245

Reddit’s CEO is a vile PoS

Precisely. They can only enforce ads on the mobile app

A normal terminology also helps when explaining the concept of federating with other platforms, imagine saying: “When you join a pod, you can then send toots that can be seen by people in different magazines, even if they’re on different platforms!”

I mixed the terminology of some 3 or 4 federated platforms to give an egregious example, but it helps drive the point. If we have a standard (the ActivePub) we can very well have a standard nomenclature for each feature.

Why would he need to block when he can ban? 🤷‍♀️

Yup, he gets a hard-on by exposing people to the “fash n friends” crap.

Holy hell, on a serious country the government would go scorched earth on Twitter’s servers and sue tf outta Musk

Best advertisement ever for Lemmy
