lemmy, kbin and mastodon are federated but you can't log into each app with an account from another platform. You can post to lemmy from your mastodon server, but not log into beehaw.org.
The lemmy ui is removing websockets in the next update replacing it with a REST API. I suspect that will stop any new posts from popping to the top after load.
People seem to not want new posts and comments moving things around on their page anyway.
A lemmy instance will only show communities that someone’s has previously searched using the full url. You can find a list of all available instances here: http://browse.feddit.de/
One of the downsides seems like since the developer packages everything together, I’m reliant on them to push out changes. For example if some dependency needs a critical security update then I’m relying on every flatpak author to apply that change and push out a new version. But if I’m installing packages directly, I can update that one package and be done with it across my system.
I think that would be possible to do to help with searching for new communities. Although for now I’m not sure there’s too much difference between it existing on each instance vs on https://browse.feddit.de/. Other than ease of use of staying on one website I guess.
Thanks for the feedback! I think if your main goal is to just search for communities by name, then it’s best to use: https://browse.feddit.de/.
I find lemmy.directory the most helpful in browsing all posts across the lemmyverse in a single feed (via the “All” filter).
Searching for new communities may be able to be made more universal, but automatically pulling in those feeds (subscribing) is probably not a good general idea. See here for more info on that: https://lemmy.ml/comment/476925
If nobody from your instance is already subscribed, then you can only search for the community by the full url. I wrote a bit more about this here: https://lemmy.directory/post/34207
I agree except someone has to host the content and they should get to decide what’s not allowed.
lol you’re right
The king can move right one?

You'll need to be able to ssh into the server.
Hosting a single user instance, I'm seeing a few GB of network traffic over the past few days and maybe 10Gb at most needed for the disk.
Ah, great thanks. That sounds much smaller in file size than mirroring all embedded content.
I was also under the impression that instances don't cache remote images, but I'm seeing a lot of cached images under
volumes/pictrs/files.Thanks, I didn't know that.
Turns out docker is configured to reference everything though relative paths. I just needed to move the directory and everything kept working.

I got similar errors when I was running out of disk space. Maybe not the same problem you had but just mentioning
Ah got it. Yes, Im using docker compose but setup through ansible. Sounds like I just need to update the bind mount then. Thanks

wow very tricky, thanks for reporting back! Can I ask if you’re seeing better performance running postgresql separately?
