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

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 :(
Hmm, weird. It works for me now
English version reroutes to the Lemmy (musician) page
I guess I’m not seeing any benefit to your plan over just having each of those communities you described run their own Lemmy instance. There is already LemmyNSFW.com for example. And then if they want a local community for music etc. they can have it, or subscribe to (a theoretical) LemmyMusic.com. Then users can have their home base but still subscribe to other remote communities.
If discovery is the concern, that can be solved more easily than building out a entirely new infrastructure like you are proposing.
This is essentially happening now. All the big servers (Lemmy.world / beehaw / Lemmy.ml) host the lions share of the content and discussion. Me and my users are essentially a user server in your example.
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?
I’m actually shocked this is happening
I’m piggybacking off of a mail server for a domain I run. My instance is small though so I’m not worried about a flood of emails.
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.
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.
The lack of image uploading in Lemmy via Yunohost was a deal breaker for me unfortunately. I am just slightly tech savvy and I found the ansible instructions easy enough to follow. I wrote a guide here in case anyone is interested: https://novakeith.net/2023/06/14/setting-up-lemmy-on-a-digital-ocean-droplet/
But on the whole, Yunohost is great for me for trying new apps and getting a feel for them. If I need more flexibility or don’t want the overhead, I take what I learned and usually figure out how to install <x> app on a separate VM
I use hover too, but reconsidering after this topic. Hover does provide anonymity, so I’m not sure if some of the other registrars listed do that too.
Very basic but enough to get started/ https://novakeith.net/2023/06/14/setting-up-lemmy-on-a-digital-ocean-droplet/
