I put together a guide aimed at Redditors for Kbin and Lemmy!

    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.

  • I thought lemmy would only cache text from remote instances to avoid replicating images across the lemmyverse. But I'm seeing a lot of images stored in `volumes/pictrs/files/` so maybe that's not the case? Anyone have any insight into this?

    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.

    Turns out docker is configured to reference everything though relative paths. I just needed to move the directory and everything kept working.

    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.

    Ah got it. Yes, Im using docker compose but setup through ansible. Sounds like I just need to update the bind mount then. Thanks

    Move lemmy directory on server?

    Is it safe to move the /svr/lemmy/ directory to a new location on the same server? Or is the directory hard coded into different places? Thanks

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

  • My thoughts on Flatpak (that nobody asked for)

    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.

  • Question about how communities are discovered from other instances

    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.
