Linux from scratch

Hi everybody, I’ve been using linux for over 15 years with a huge gap in between. I think i stopped at 14 (Ubuntu) something and started again at 20 something. So i had to learn alot again. Luckily it all came back quick. Now since this week I started linux from scratch to learn more about the way it’s build. I’m also...

How can I block an instance?

I don’t really mind arguing with the people on hexbear, their attempt to gang-harass me is pretty pathetic, but I would like to not see any of their posts on my feed anymore as nothing they post is relevant to me. How can I block an entire instance?

SMTP Relay Questions

I use O365 Business (Or whatever the heck they call it now) for my email, so for SMTP on all my devices at home, I use an O365 account with an app password, sending as a distro-group so it can have a custom name...

If people from reddit are redditors, what are people from lemmy?

It is a good idea to post a TL;DW when posting a video link.

I have noticed that some users here don’t have time to watch videos. I think on most of the video links I share here, there are always users commenting that it is better to read an article than watching this video. To be honest, I don’t like all this complaining. It is kind of annoying....

Does anyone know if creating a content-"sharing" bot for Lemmy(, from reddit subs and elsewhere,) would be illegal ?

Watch history required for recommendations now on Youtube/Alternative to youtube.

In order to get recommendations on your homepage you need to enable your Youtube history in order for videos to be “tailored for you”. This is complete BS, as recommendations were perfectly fine before, and I have never had history enabled. This is just a stunt to get people to give their personal data to google. Now I know...
