Anyone hosting Lemmy and Mastodon on the same server?
I have Mastodon running on a VPS running Debian 11. Now I would like to add a Lemmy instance on the same server. I tried using the from scratch method from Lemmy documentation, but ran into errors that likely stemmed from minor version incompatibilities of the dependencies. I tried using the Lemmy easy deploy script but it wants...
how is meta's threads involved with the fediverse?
I’ve read that threads is using ActivityPub but what does that mean exactly?...
How to crosspost on Lemmy?
Title...
Now that we are all switching to Lemmy, now is the time for all the redditors with embarrassing usernames to make their username right! Don't screw up this time!

What is everyone's favorite era of starship design?
I’m personally a big fan of the late TMP designs like the Excelsior and Centaur, what do you guys like?
A cold take.
People who don’t care that they are being spied on/ having their data harvested by facebook, instagram, whatsapp, google, amazon, oracle etc… are the same ones who pirate without a vpn or i2p. I can’t stand this “so what if they have my data?” attitude. You ask anyone if they would feel comfortable leaving their car...
Unable to forward ports using wireguard
Update: Sorry guys, looks like I just needed to reboot the public server....

Do not Think!
This has been a while and I had a pro forma manager (actually, we switched roles now and then, sometimes he was my manager, sometimes i was his) who backed me every time and vice versa. We still are friends....

Freezing Mangoes
If the sole purpose of the mangoes is to make a smoothie, should I freeze skinned and cubed up, or blend it then freeze?

"AI" Is Not a Problem and Is a Good Thing, but Is Being Abused by the Actual Problem
“AI” can’t replace people in any way. The most it could possibly do is assist a person in performing a task because it is a tool which does not actually have intelligence or awareness. This may be a debate but I am firmly on the side of punting Wilson the volleyball and cautioning people not to anthropomorphize a program...
Torrent style internet
when downloading torrents you have a bunch of seeders and maybe most won’t be online, but some will be. I’m so so tired with services and monopolies. Do you think it would be possible to create an internet where instead of large servers we just have individuals hosting their email service, the communities they like to post...
Home Theater Setup
So I’ve been torrenting for over a year now (just in time to get attached to RARBG and get my heart broken) and mostly loving it. Now that I have access to actual high quality files I’ve been looking to improve my home setup. I was wondering what setups people have and what I should aspire to....
"Unless the house is on fire or you are hurt, do not interrupt me on the phone!"
Hi everyone, this is a small but hopefully enjoyable bit of MC from my childhood. Way back when, my Dad worked in IT and worked from home. This is back in the early days of telecommuting and so most of his day was spent on calls in between actual technical stuff. The internet was in its infancy, so if he was working he really...
YSK: If your instance updated to 0.18.1, there's new themes in your profile settings, including compact and pure black themes! (for the website version of lemmy, version number at bottom of page)
Why YSK: Because that’s friggin awesome?!...
Why are people against big companies joining the fediverse?
Tl:dr: Perhaps I am just uninformed on the issues, but I don’t see what the big deal is with a company like Meta joining the fediverse. If anything, I think it is a very good thing, as it puts more attention and dev time into making it a more functional and better place. So what is the issue?...
