Frankly, I would prefer using Nautilus, VLC in a stable cosmic-comp. I believe the S76 team has strayed bit of the target by working on features that are not urgent (like Cosmic Edit, Cosmic MP). Still, it seems to be progressing pretty well.

I tried daily drive but could not continue due to some critical but minor issues. I will try it again when it is labeled as beta because I really like its speed and appearance.

I wanted to let my users encrypt their payload with my public key so only I can decrypt that payload. Just like how PGP works. Eventually I’ve used hybrid encryption with AES for encrypting the payload and RSA for encrypting AES secret key.

Just to let you know this post is almost 2 years old :)

It was something like Universal Lemmy Redirect

You can add that instance to “allowed instances” list. It won’t follow others then.

I created this tool and have been using it in my instance since the very beginning. My instance is almost 2 years old and it’s total database size is 60.2GB.

What people don’t understand about this tool is:

• If a community is generating enough activity, it’s likely that someone from your instance is already following that community.
• If a community isn’t generating enough activity, it won’t create much of a network/storage burden anyway.

Sure, it will make a small difference, but it’s nothing compared to the benefits it provides.

Do you think serving images from torrent would work? This can be done easily in the browser with Webtorrent, but I think it might be a bit problematic in mobile applications (maybe the image_proxy endpoint could come in handy here for a hybrid solution).

If it is in the roadmap, I can add this feature to the web UI as a start. Because it makes perfect sense :)

I’m glad you’re happy 🙏 I’m trying to keep the instance as chill, friendly, and unbiased as possible. I hope we can keep this going in 2025 :)

Due to unpleasant experiences, not the first day :)

I saw these issues before. Its probably about video encoding. I need to tweak media settings.

Though I can play the video in Mlem.

Thanks for the changes 🙏 I wonder, is 0.19.8 going to be last 0.19 before 0.20? I’m planning to upgrade if its stable enough.

As I understand, it will make things work like Bluesky. Users will be able to use their own domain handles while not hosting an instance as a whole.

If you seed only, then your bot won’t subscribe. So your All tab will be the same.

Mutual mode can put an additional load on your instance if you are not following the top communities on Lemmy. But I believe it is worth it.

If the extra load becomes a problem, you can disable the bot at any time. With the “Reset subscriptions” button, your bot will unfollow from all communities.

I would suggest you to set Federation mode to seed only. I do not recommend mutual mode for instances under 100 users.

NSFW? Your preference. Auto add? I think you should enable. Fediseer? Default is fine.

Ok. I want to host my own Bluesky and interact with the bsky.app instance. How?

The article is all about excuses.

IDK why but I can’t see other comments from my instance.

I agree that fediverse needs a personalized “explore” page in general. For example, this is the only plus feature of Bluesky over Mastodon (in terms of technology). It is obvious how big difference it makes.

I generally avoid the evil algorithms found on other social networks, but I hope we see that in Lemmy.

So is he self hosting her or what?

Same. As an instance admin, I like to read other admins’ experiences with new version updates and being aware of possible attacks/issues in the fediverse.
