Bocchi the Rock!

Congrats! Good luck not pooping.

Specifically for lemmy: https://browse.feddit.de/, to find more smaller communities you like and help them grow.

There’s !autism@lemmy.world

If scraping is slow, doesn’t that mean browsing reddit will also be slow?

Usually, I search for the URL, but it gives no results. However, in the backend my lemmy instance is downloading a bunch of posts from that instance, and when I look at my list of communities, it’s suddenly there. Awful user experience, but it works. I’m sure this will improve in the future.

The user interface is different: different looking website, different apps. The only thing in common is the content itself.

I tried Mastodon before, but I never understood how to use Mastodon/Twitter. How am I supposed to find interesting posts? Should I follow… people? Who should I follow?

That’s because you joined the largest community. It’s much more cumbersome for smaller communities.

I’ll join!

Interesting! Let me test this: test.

Apparently not. There is an open issue on github.

I think this is fine as long as your image contains two databases. Don’t just add a database to a running container, that’s bad practice since containers are designed to be volatile.

That makes sense. But if I try to search for https://lemmy.vanoverloop.xyz/c/test on a Mastodon instance, such as lor.sh or mastodon.social, I would expect it to work, but it doesn’t.

I’m running lemmy on a Raspberry PI 4, and resource usage is very low. If I look at the logs I see a neverending stream of ActivityPub requests that keep coming in (I subscribed to the most popular communities), but the resource usage stays low. Occasionally, the CPU usage of lemmy-ui or postgres jumps up a few percent, but nothing too crazy.

I’m not sure how this will evolve is communities keep growing though, since the amount of requests might increase.

My self-hosted instance seems to be working well, but I can’t figure out how to federate with other platforms such as mastodon.

I guess we’ll figure it out at some point.

Fedora, because it works well out of the box, and I like GNOME.
