Just another app point of data: Racoon For Lemmy still works with 18.4. It’s been my favorite lemmy app since starting to use it.

4th gen I7 was like what? 9 years ago… How dare they!

I look forward to my beef stroganoff notifications daily.

To add on to that. Their enhance playlists or similar songs found at the bottom of your playlist page can be really relevant and I’ve learned about a ton of new artists that way.

I like ipas. Citra is my hop. I’m sorry my preferences of drink is annoying to you.

Tried on liftoff as well and it is not working.

Just a random data point. This is my first time logging back into my beehaw account in a long time. Beehaw was my original lemmy instance and I really enjoyed the foundational ideals and communities the founders envisioned. I logged back in today because even on my main account on another instance, I’m so tired of all the terrible bigotry that I see in my all feed.

I personally really like the Lemmy interface as a user especially in an app, mobile browsing or desktop with certain browser add-ons. I know as a someone with their own instance (not my main account ref earlier) that the mod,sysadmin and dev work to keep it running is a lot. I too have database issues that I am super frustrated by. The mod tools are pretty much non existent.

With that said, I think that the whitelist may a viable option. The content needing moderated is likely mostly from federated instances. If beehaw were to isolate it’s community or whitelist to a few trusted instances one would imagine the mod work would be lesser even with the minimal tools available. Purge the old content and continue forward as a community isolated but together in their goal to create a kind and friendly community.

Just my thoughts. I appreciate you beehaw admins.

Yes, you need sudo.

They are out there… I was doing some exploring of instances the other day. If you look at what instances are blocking it’s pretty easy to see what is out in the fediverse.

Figured out Lemmy in about a day… Trying to setup my own instance… 4 hours of failure so far. Lol

I’m a android reddit is fun user for at least ten years and old.reddit… I am surprised how much I like the Lemmy mobile interface just in browser. Desktop is ok but I have some complaints (centered, not utilizing the width, too much padding on elements). Tried the beehaw themes available, none that worked entirely. The default is totally usable, I’m just being picky. I tried playing around with custom styling but with the modularity of the css it wasn’t easy to do just poking around for 15 minutes.

Thank you. You’ve given me some starts to look into!

Did you end up using a hosting provider? I’m interested as well but can’t host locally.

Getting a compost bin this weekend… looking forward to getting started. Thanks for discussion.

A drink for such a happy occasion is in order this evening.

Here! Here!

A DMCA method, Privacy Policy and even a TOS is what is needed to make me feel more comfortable here. Right now, you have no idea what the plan is for your data (and its rentention), data collection, etc. I might dig into the lemmy code and see if I can sus it out myself if I have time.

For sure, reddit became less transparent with the data retention the further their success increased. In the past they claimed that ip addresses on your account would be removed after 100 days except for the signup IP. I did the GDPR requests for all my old accounts. I have one remaining that I deleted all the content off of until I was permenantly done (which looks soon now).

I just really dislike being targeted for ads and tracked for companies purposes to “advertise” to you. I run a dns sink hole, VPN, ublock on all my devices and I know it’s still impossible to be truly anonymous online without being a weirdo and unable to live modern life.

I’m the sameway. I use firefox exclusively and have for years, love it, began using their password manager for a few years now and I’m thinking about an alternative to that I manage. I’ve already been a part of huge databreaches. I would sure hate for my passwords to be out there. I mean, it’s dangerous AF.

That is fantastic! I hope you enjoy it! Amusingly enough, I read it often as a vacation book. Something about actually being detached from life’s everyday bustle allows it to “hit” good for me. I just flipped through my book to look at the chapters and remember it. It’s been a bit since I’ve read it. Time for a fresh re-read. Let me know your thoughts after and enjoy!

Right? It does feel nice at the moment at least.
