While it was an interesting and sometimes confusing experience setting up and running my own Lemmy instance (looking at you, 20 character limit on federation URL), I think it's not worth it....

It seems like rumours and suspicions have solidified today. So I was genuinely interested to see who was presenting the 10 o’clock news this evening – and how the current BBC-related story was covered.

What a time to be alive.

8 months ago I prepaid an entire year subscription in order to skip the wait list for the Beeper beta testing group....

One of my favorite command line tips: you can add ‘comments’ full of keywords to shell commands, which makes searching your command history easier....

So I’m in the process of moving my discord server over to matrix. I rented a VPS with 2 cores/2gb of ram for this. What I’m having issues with is media store and federation. I believe I have the media_store configured corrected as I can post images in my own channels, however I get Error 500 while attempting to upload a...

Obviously am aware of Readarr but is there anything equivalent to Overseerr for book request tracking? Or has anyone found other creative ways of processing requests automatically to Readarr?

For now, I can only visit a community from another server by searching or opening a post from that server, if I open it in the post’s original server or if I open their site, I’ll be in another lemmy instance and I’ll have no account there, so I can’t really interact....

Can Lemmy really replace Reddit at a surtain time

Title basically, I need to parse the date modified, the time and seconds in order to reconstruct the filenames in the format of an android phone’s camera roll....

I read that if you author a downvote it is public information. What other information is public to the network? Are subscriptions public?

Apparently Lemmy copied the new reddit layout which shoves everything into the middle of the screen and wastes a massive amount of space. Even on the monitor I oriented vertically this is the case: the post I’m typing right now is using like 30% of the available screen real-estate and wasting the other 2/3rds....

The first Android Faithful episode 1 “All about Android Faithful” was a smash hit. What is old is new again, go show them some love....

Recently mullvad stopped the port forwarding, are there some other trustworthy VPN to do Torrenting out there or others solutions to do torrenting with Mullvad?

Well the title says it all....

Hello fellow lemmings! Fedora KDE user here, and quite happy about it, it didn’t break a single time and packages are up to date. The only thing that bother me is DNF’s speed… a single search may take up to 5 seconds, and if I’m dependency-hunting I may need several searches, summing up the delays. I’m asking if...

I’ve seen a lot of posts about the Red Hat situation, and it made me want to talk about something I’ve been thinking about for some time....

I propose relocating most issue discussions from GitHub to lemmy.ml/c/feature_requests to optimize developer time and foster increased user engagement and collaboration.
