What's the point of signing up on instances?
Newbie here - just wondering if there are any advantages to signing up to other instances. We can still see/comment on posts from other instances, right? Or do I have that wrong?...
There have been multiple accounts created with the sole purpose of posting advertisement posts or replies containing unsolicited advertising.
Accounts which solely post advertisements, or persistently post them may be terminated.

My tendency seems to be owning my own business and freelancing until I die (until I get stable enough to build my own products). I've been trying to connect with more business-minded people--"average of 5 people" type of mentality. Currently it seems that the only way of doing this is LinkedIn....
Why YSK: it doesn't matter how original you might think you are, they have heard them before. Numerous times in fact. If you're in the habit of making name-based jokes as soon as you meet someone you should stop. At best you're mildly annoying the person, at worst you're preventing what could have been a great friendship before...
I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don’t like but has an alternative?

I occasionally pop back on to see if there’s any news about some of my favorite subs migrating to the fediverse that haven’t yet, and I’ve noticed that nearly all of my home page has massive posts in the vein of “comment your favorite ___ and then tomorrow we do our favorite ___!” Or like the “eliminate one ___ every...
As in title. What’s your experience with it? If something isn’t executable, then it has to exploit vulnerability in order to run anything malicious. But does it happen often with mp4, mkv and other files like mp3 or epub?...

I am one of those poor bastards that had a hell of a time getting my Airpods working with Linux. Searches led me to going to /etc/bluetooth/main.conf and changing ControllerMode to “bredr”. This got the AirPods working, but then my bt keyboard and mouse wouldn’t connect....
Reddit migrator here (shocking, I know)...
I have a noob question but seem overwhelmed with all the information I get about it. Basically, why do I need a reverse proxy if all my services are not public? Every guide or video for self hosting there’s always talk of a reverse proxy, have been doing it wrong?...
You know, a reason why we liked reddit and stackexchange is the upvotes/awards and that the site tells you what the post owner liked (which is supposed to be the answer you’re looking for). what is the alternative here ? or does the admin add a bot to do this stuff on the instance ?...
I used Imgur a lot to post pictures to reddit and since I replaced reddit with lemmy already I thought it would be nice to replace Imgur as well....
Something not going right this week? Air conditioning too cold or non-existant?...
Data on search engine market share is available, but I wonder what that looks like for Lemmy users in particular, who I would assume lean more technical than the average user, so probably use DuckDuckGo and alternates more than Google....
I see all the drama around Red-hat and I still don’t get why companies would use RHEL (or centos when it existed). I was in many companies and CentOS being years behind was awful for any recent application (GPU acceleration, even new CPU had problems with old Linux kernels shipped in CentOS)....
I have a weird distaste of how law is written for a long time. Laws are difficult to understand and follow. For example, definitions are often unclear and depends on past rulings. Meaning the law itself is not suffice to decide if an action is legal or not. This really irritated me. The fact that I can’t know with 100%...
My favorite is the Gormenghast Trilogy by Mervyn Peake
