The bigger the numbers the better. We always need more engagement, especially quality posts and questions.

Thanks that’s good to know, I’ll try and keep active as much as possible to get more and more out there over time <3

someacnt , to linux in Why is Linux so frustrating for some people?

Reading comments, it’s soo strange that I never borked my system once during nearly 7 years of linux usage. Playing games were frustrating, but it was improved a lot by now. My ubuntu never failed to boot, the only audio problem I had was with the mic. Even better, KDE Connect introduced new workflow to me. I wonder why my computer always boots well even when it gets borked during shutdown…

Nowadays, I use my own hand-rolled DE. It still refuses to break on me. Guess I am really lucky or something.

You’re not alone. I’ve been rocking Arch for a few years now, and I only reinstalled it when I changed computers. It just works.

I’ve borked my system a few times, but I know it was always because I messed with stuff that I didn’t understand. My system is much more stable now that I learned those early lessons.

snek_boi ,

Same here. My issues atm are that NixOS is just too darn complicated sometimes… But that doesn’t mean stuff gets borked.

raltoid , to nostupidquestions in Is it unethical to troll arrogant people?

There’s no need to be mean to get banned.

Just tweet about things like Tawian being a country, tag Japanese governemental accounts while bringing up the horrors of Ishii Shiro, defend children in Palestine, etc.

I have a lot more free time than I otherwise would.

BCsven , to linux in Why is Linux so frustrating for some people?

Try OpenSUSE, GUI for software, system, settings etc. And boot to previous snapshots if you break something

gunpachi ,

Opensuse is great. Yast was more useful than I initially thought.

On a different note - For people who like tinkering, nixos can also be a great option, it also allows rollbacks but doesn’t use BTRFS snapshots out of the box like opensuse.

BCsven ,

Yep, I have one machine as NixOS, it has some awesome features.

j4k3 , to linux in Are packages from flathub always safe?
@j4k3@lemmy.world avatar

The general community is probably going to catch any issues that pop up extremely quickly. Like my main machines are all on whitelist firewalls residing on external devices. If any software tries to make odd connections, the connections will get dropped and logged. I wouldn’t hesitate to report anything odd. I don’t run sketchy proprietary junk for the most part.

Currently looking into getting a Sphynx and this is literally the number one surprise/complaint from people. They stain your clothes with their oils so you need to watch them weekly. Personally I don’t mind and am excited to have my naked hairless friend.

Sphynx cats are so dang cute

CybranM ,

I look at my cat everyday and it’s not a Sphynx.

ancoraunamoka , to selfhosted in What do you recommend to selfhost code repositories?

I used many of them and settled for bare repos on an host with ssh access

  • gitea / gogs: too many database corruptions I am getting ptsd just talking about it
  • gitlab: too big, too resource hungry for something so simple. Didn’t use 90% of the stuff that offered
  • gitbucket and onedev: those are very good and are sort of setup and forget because they just work. They have different features set so check them out.

In the end given that I just have a bunch of users and don’t need many fancy features (we share patches over email and matrix) on our community server we are just using ssh and klaus as a web frontend

fireshell , to selfhosted in Self-hosted Password Manager Recommendation?
@fireshell@lemmy.world avatar

You can install Vaultwarden instead of Bitwarden. Differences between Vaultwarden and Bitwarden by reference.

InverseParallax ,

Strongly second vaultwarden, covets so many cases for me.

boothin ,

Is it just me or does that "comparison" make no sense for this thread. It's mostly comparing vaultwarden to the cloud version of bitwarden, not the self hosted version. It only mentions the self hosted version in passing. It doesn't do anything to help someone choose between vaultwarden and self hosted bitwarden

innercitadel ,

The article honestly reads like it was written by an AI tool.

samwise ,
@samwise@kbin.social avatar

Also recommend vault warden its what I've been using for the past year since lastpass dropped the ball.

It has entries for totp, notes, and you can add more fields as needed. Ive been really happy with it

keyez ,

Not sure why someone would. Bitwarden provides their own self-host repos and docs and is working on a unified container instead of docker-compose scripts for their production stack.

I’ve been using their stack for the last 6 years and only issues I’ve ran into were my fault. Also tested their container and will be switching to that soon.

Im1Random ,

Don’t you have to pay to use premium features on your own server with their official software? With Vaultwarden you get all premium features unlocked for free on an infinite amount of devices.

keyez ,

Yes that is true but $10/year for premium is not bad, I donate that much to separate projects per year

AceFuzzLord , to asklemmy in If you were given control of all products owned by Facebook, what would you do with them?

Just to see it crumble to pieces, I would have any means to report anything and block people/posts on fakebook removed whilst allowing any and all speech (including hate speech) to be spread just so that way there is a mass collapse in user base. Also, make the ads 100 times more intrusive.

As it crumbles, I’d just watch from atop my high horse and constantly blame everyone else who isn’t me or working for me for my problems and the failures of the company in a very top 1% fashion, on the platform of course.

When it finally crumbles and if the media asks what went wrong, I’ll just say I was following the google approach and blame them while using prepared 100% AI faked evidence to try and prove I was in contact with higher ups with google and getting advice from them, even down to faking actual calls.

Finally, assuming I have any money stored away from all of this, I’d use it to jumpstart my aggressive anti-communist agenda.

ancoraunamoka , to selfhosted in r/selfhosted is still rising, WTF? Come to Lemmy!!!

I agree with all the comments so far but would like to add my own thoughts. Users are not important. Personally I moved to lemmy because the quality of discussion on reddit dropped so much.

This has been my trajectory:

  • avid reddit user and content creator there (not sure if the right term) 2016 - 2018
  • lurker from 2018 to 2023
  • completely dropped reddit and moved to lemmy

My hope is that we can have the same kind of content and discussion in pre 2020 reddit

R51 ,

yeah the comment per day graph is not doing too hot. Subscriber count may be rising but comment count is constantly in the valley.

bermuda , to gaming in What's the most toxic game community you know of?

It’s pretty broad but I have met some truly awful human beings playing Minecraft. the “community” as a whole is… fine? for a game community, but the individual pockets you find can be truly horrifying. Hell, even in so-called “friendly” communities you can meet some pretty terrible people. People treat their servers like little fiefdoms, and all the toxicity with a fiefdom comes with that.

kd637_mi , to startrek in The Star Trek 'Where Should I Start' guide

Great write up! I have to do my standard TOS defence though, it often gets a bad wrap based on what people think they know about it. A lot of the time that is based on things out of context like the Gorn in Arena, although there are a lot of genuine issues modern viewers could have.

I think if there was a TOS “modern” season of ten of the best or most relevant episodes, or even if you reduce the three seasons to one classic trek season, almost everyone could get some appreciation for it. The Kirk, Spock, Bones dynamic is too good to miss, and the tension in something like The Corbomite Maneuver or Balance of Terror is great. There are some morally grey episodes as well like A Private Little War which, while divisive, I feel deserve to be in such a condensed season.

Definitely skip Star Trek V though.

“The cloud”.

In the end “the cloud” is just someone else’s hard drive. Call me old fashioned, but I’ll keep my data on my own hard drives.

Boss’s kids got some horrible incurable disease? All of them? Maybe feel a little bad but you earned it so don’t.
