Been testing Kbin and Tildes, and I like the way Tildes does it. There are upvotes, no downvotes. Instead, there are also labels that can be applied like joke and off-topic. There's even an analogue of gilding via an exemplary label which has an 8-hour cool down and requires typing a brief reason.
Tildes wants to encourage longer, thoughtful discussion so jokes get pushed to the bottom by default. Currently no option to custom sort that I could see if, for example, you want to read funny comments instead—and that's fine.
Point is, a better system than upvotes/downvotes would be nice as a general feature for aggregators going forward.
I've switched over my own server last week, using ansible to generate the systemd files, and it worked great. It's just a dozen containers or so.
The only problems I had were with container interdependencies (network-mode=container:x). That didn't work so well with systemd, restarting and updating, but when I used a pod instead these problems all went away.
So I can't say I regret my experience so far. Now I'll be starting to use it at work too, where the user-namespace problem rears its head, but only because we have this very specific, very dumb big lamp dev container that houses apache, sql, redis, and more under one supervisord. That's why we have more than one user in it and frankly that's our own damn fault! When you make proper containers they shouldn't have more than one user in it and then userns=keep-id should work just fine.
Using Ansible to spew out systemd service boilerplate seems like a good idea. I’ll have to try that if I can ever give up my Docker Compose security blanket. And I wish you luck with your mega-container Podman conversion. That one sounds like it’ll be… a learning experience.
I understand very well wanting to stay with the declarative nature of docker-compose. Someone should really build a better podman-compose. (or sooner or later I'll do it myself >_<)
I use a Moto G50 5G, my wife use a Moto e32s and most of folks in my work use some kind of Motorola phone. My work phone is also a cheaper Motorola. No dead pixels, charging time is fine, build quality is good. Updates could be pushed more often for the OS. IMO Moto phones are good budget devices, but I don’t see where is the money flowing when buying flagship one. Like the Law of Diminishing Returns is cranked up to 110 for this company.
downvotes REALLY bother me. why it bothers me personally: i have severe mental health issues (to the point of disability). due to how i grew up, i heavily internalized being and accepting that i'm always bad and horrible and wrong and punishing myself for it. when i get criticized or downvoted - even if it's silly - i feel HORRIBLE, because obviously i MUST'VE done something VERY BAD and VERY WRONG and i must be PUNISHED and i must CORRECT. and it's even more frustrating when i don't know what to correct. bonus, i have autism and adhd, so i can say things considered "wrong" and not know why, but people won't explain it to me because apparently i should magically know. and i don't want to be a bad person, but now i'm suddenly a bad person and i don't know what to do about it.
this is just ME. i don't think it applies to most people. and inb4 "bruh it's just a downvote, it's not that deep, touch grass" AGREED. BIG AGREE. but if you understand anything about psychology, it can take a very long time to undo stuff that's so deeply ingrained from childhood, if it can be undone at all. i have actually heavily improved in this area in terms of recognizing i'm not necessarily wrong and rarely need to be punished, but the emotional reaction sadly has not changed much.
also, some (not all) people just seem to use downvotes as a personal attack, and that's just annoying as hell. i think people can relate to this much more.
i try hard not to downvote, because i don't think it's necessary most of the time. people seem to downvote the silliest things...
I mean this with the utmost respect, but this might not be the platform for you mate. That kinda feels like knowing that you have a gambling addiction and going to a casino.
I was a die hard Motorola fan for years, Verizon’s DROID line kept me away from the Apple ecosystem for quite a while. When Google bought them I thought they would become the iPhone of Android ecosystem. Once they sold the name for $10 billion less to Lenovo, I switched to LG for a couple of phones, finally gave into Samsung. I miss when the tech was improving from year to year, but now, I’m happy to keep a phone for 2 years, buy a new one and give my mom the last one and there isn’t much difference.
**Edit: When I upgrade, I get the flagship, so that normally gives the phone 4-5 years with Samsung with updates. ***
Yeah I can't keep up. I have a Moto G9 Power and now all the model names are just super confusing. I can't wait for the Moto G1243.625252 to be released. Has slightly better specs than the G152662.99999 😁
If you do only web and mail you could consider a web space instead of a VPS. For example Netcup.eu offers packets which include email, Ionos offers one mail account per user account too I think.
Also as you said self hosting emails is quite some pain because Gmail, Microsoft etc blacklist small mail servers rather quickly. Depending on your motivation you could also use Protonmail or mailbox.org as mail provider with your own domain.
Anyway, Debian is a solid choice due to long support times.
Yes, it was made by Motorola. Writing this on my Nexus 6 running Lineage OS. It's turning a decade old soon and the older it gets the less I am willing to get something new. Nothing like that sweet 16:9 QHD OLED screen with headphone jack and stereo speakers in a metal frame for like 600€ anymore.
Up until now I’ve been using docker and mostly manually configuring by dumping docker compose files in /opt/whatever and calling it a day. Portainer is running, but I mainly use it for monitoring and occasionally admin tasks. Yesterday though, I spun up machine number 3 and I’m strongly considering setting up something better for provisioning/config. After it’s all set up right, it’s never been a big problem, but there are a couple of bits of initial with that are a bit of a pain (mostly hooking up wireguard, which I use as a tunnel for remote admin and off-site reverse proxying.
Salt is probably the strongest contender for me, though that’s just because I’ve got a bit of experience with it.
I recently loaded Fire Emblem Engage, super mario oddosy, donkey kong tropical freeze, and both zelda BOTW and TOTK. I was running them on my steam deck so performance was so-so, some games better than others, all of them definitely playable though (except super mario sunshine, but that was one I tried probably almost a year ago, yuzu is better now)
emulation still proves to be the best way to play.
Communities with the same name across different instances are not merged, and the way they are referenced will be different. So, the location of lemmy.world/c/Music can also be referenced as !music while instead the Music at serverB.whatever be can be referenced as [email protected] .
