Will Lemmy ever add federated delete?
I have been curious of this one since it’s a feature that mastodon has, and while I understand with FOSS software anyone can disable that, but usually people don’t and if I knew they were doing that I would defederate them.
Using OpenVPN for sailing the sees

Experience with Unihertz phones?

How do you facilitate remote access?

What is up with Baldur's Gate 3?
This is not a criticism - I love how much attention this game has been getting. I’m just not understanding why BG3 has been blowing up so much. It seems like BG3 is getting more attention than all of Larian’s previous games combined (and maybe all of Obsidian’s recent crpgs as well). Traditionally crpgs have not lit the...

Radarr and Lidarr creating subfolders
I’m running my arr stack on Unraid. I set it up using a combination of Trash’s guide and Ibracorp’s video (linked in same article). Everything had been working well.
