jack , to ukcasual in Saturday chat thread

I woke up to a load of noise downstairs, went to investigate assuming it was my cat… who I couldn’t see. No problem, I thought.

Stood in the kitchen making a cuppa and I hear a very sorry meow, so obviously assumed my poor boy was hurt!

No. Completely wrong. Some random cat is sat on the windowsill in my living room. Dead lovely little thing that enjoyed a bit of fuss before I let it back out into the world!

I always find myself coming back to Monster Hunter every time I wanna chill and relax.

mikehunt , to selfhosted in How many users could you host on a self hosted lemmy instance?

I think it depends heavily on how much storage you’re allocating, if you allow uploading media that is. From what I’ve understood most of the bottlenecks are in DB operations so CPU and memory definately play a role.

Scuro OP ,

Good point. I forgot about media.

I wonder if I made a LAN lemmy instance if I could use it as a lemmy cache server.

ellwoodb , to selfhosted in Understanding proxies

Hey there,

I have somewhat of a similar setup. I use Nginx Proxy Manager and AdGuard Homes rewrites to do the same thing as you.

As for Question 1: Creating self-signed certs is pretty straightforward. I followed this tutorial by Christian Lempa: youtu.be/VH4gXcvkmOYHe also has a good writeup on his GitHub: github.com/ChristianLempa/…/ssl-certs.mdHow to import the certs into Nginx, I don’t know, but I think that’s easy to lookup online.

Regarding Question 2: My understanding is that all traffic goes through the Reverse Proxy.

I hope I could help, let me know if you have any more questions.

alehc , to linux in uhhh... what do I call the "subreddits"?

Technically communities but I prefer the term sublemmy

Venus , to linux in uhhh... what do I call the "subreddits"?

They’re communities. And the different servers/sites are instances.

sourcery , to literature in what are your favorite cozy reads?

Aside from Discworld which really is a fantastic series, I’ll recommend The Dresden Files.

Mrk421 ,

It has a slow start IMO but once the edge wears down and Butcher just lets himself nerd out it's just such good modern fantasy

UnderlyingLogic , to gaming in Comfort games?

Stardew Valley is amazing for this. Minecraft was it for years and years, but Stardew is just like a nice hug. I adore it.

Hogwarts Legacy has also fallen into this category for me now.

super Mario galaxy for sure

When I was very young I had something wrong with my nose and I couldn’t breathe so I had to get surgery

When I left the hospital my parents said I could get a game to play while I couldn’t go to school for a week and I chose super Mario galaxy

I played the shit out of that game and it just has such a calming positive vibe, like everything is gonna be ok

That game is a part of me, I love it so much

… that or left 4 dead 2

buedi ,

Oh yes! SMG was the game we bought the day we bought our Wii back then and it is a masterpiece. It is also the only Mario Game I ever “finished” (all Stars with Mario, not Luigi tough). We loved everything in this game. The Music, Level Design, Controls… and whenever we thought that we have seen all, they came up with a new game mechanic that surprised us and was super fun. It was truly a fantastic and memorable experience.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Psalm_for_the_Wild-Built by Becky Chambers. There is a good sequel too called A Prayer for the Crown-Shy that came out last year.

I totally just saw the headline and missed your comment that included Becky Chambers. I’m still getting used to Lemmy/Beehaw. Sorry for the reading comprehension fail!

styxbane OP ,

No that’s totally reasonable because A Psalm for the Wild Built is such a great book. I need to read A Prayer for the Crown Shy though. That one I’m waiting for my turn for the copy on Libby

I went ahead and bought all of the Long Way series from my local bookstore. I broke down and bought the audio books from Apple for the monk and robot series. I’ll buy them in paperback too when I can get to the bookstore and order them.

Schedar ,

Has there been hints of any new Becky Chambers book that you’ve heard of? The news section of otherscribbles.com doesn’t have anything since nearly a year ago.

When I was deep in the sleep deprived zone of new parenthood, listening & readying to Beckychambers books on audio book was just perfect. I was too fragile to deal with any horribly dark or dense sci-fi books (that so many seem to be) and her books always felt like a nice cup of tea (pretty appropriate considering psalm for the wild-built!)

We are expecting our second and I’d love to have a new Becky chambers book to read or listen to when we restart the new born saga!

Oddly enough I go through phases where I just level up a character on WoW. It’s mindless for me and I can just zone out and watch TV while playing.

Can we call communities “lemlets?”

Ultivek , to asklemmy in For everyone new to Lemmy, how are you finding the experience?
@Ultivek@kbin.social avatar

I don't really know whats going on the whole instance thing confuses me. Whats it's pros? Why use it

Barbarian ,
@Barbarian@sh.itjust.works avatar

Basically 4 things:

  • Pick your own admin. I’m sure the kbin admin is awesome (can’t be worse than spez, lol) but it’s nice to have the option
  • Have more control over what your server federates with. Hate interacting with people from a specific server? Move to one that blocks it. Want to interact with people from a blocked instance? Move to one that doesn’t block them. Basically more options.
  • Don’t like the rules on your server? Go to one where you like the rules better.
  • Your server is down? That’s fine, go to a different one temporarily. You’re gonna feel this hard on Monday. Kbin’s gonna get crushed by the Reddit hug of death. You might wanna join up to a small Lemmy instance that the horde won’t notice if that happens and you still wanna be on.

If you like kbin’s admin, federation settings and rules? Then cool! You’re missing absolutely nothing from being there (except when it’s down). It’s nice to have options though.

Secret number 5:

If you know how to host a server, you can host your own Lemmy instance and have all the powa!

@Barbarian So I have a few questions, being new to all this:

  1. Seemingly I am responding to you when you're on a different instance. I'm on kbin and you're on... sh.itjust.works? Am I understanding this right?
  2. My kbin account is restricted to just kbin, correct? I cannot use my kbin credentials to log on to another instance like sh.itjust.works.
  3. How do I make an original comment (this is a bit dumb lol). I see the option to reply to others but no "comment" button for me to comment on my own.
  4. On kbin specifically... what is a microblog?
  5. (Last one promise), what is up with the @stuff. I see this post link is kbin.social/m/[email protected]... I figured the /m is like reddit's /r, but what is the [email protected] meaning that this is the magazine/community from lemmy.mt when shown on the kbin /m/ instance version? Not sure if this question makes any sense lol I'm just trying to understand how this all works

Your username in the fediverse is not honorfaz, but @honorfaz, just as an email. It’s the same for communities (or sublemmy, or whatever we decide to call it). It’s not c/something, but c/[email protected]. This is why everyone still has a unique handle, but no unique admin.

I’m on my own instance for example, running in my living room, and yet here we are, talking. Internet as it was intented.
