How much does the setup cost? assuming I’m already self hosting and have some disk space.

VPN and a seed box?

There’s always vaultwarden.

Normally I wouldn’t want to add more communities to someone who had so many, but, uh… Yours are special.

Done. Sorry it took me a bit to go through our usual checks.

I was the generation we were hopeful for. All we’ve done is stall. We got Obama elected… and that’s about it.

We need a plan that’s better than “wait it out”. That one tends to fail.

And who will they blame? Probably others.

We’ve expected that for over a generation. It’s more than just the boomers doing this. If you’re waiting for Gen X, you’re going to have to wait for Millennials too, because we thought the same thing.

It wasn’t boomers that were influenced by r/the_donald and 4chan.

Are you volunteering?

I’d also like to see specialist instances. There could absolutely be a separate instance that has major sports, for example. Or even just the NFL. Kind of like the benefits of old forums, but with the benefits of federation and Reddit.

More geographic based instances would also be great.

Otherwise I’m not into more instances just for defederation’s sake. Email works just fine having most users in a few major hosts. Lemmy can be similar. It’s the option to leave that is important.

You’ve been appointed as moderator of !gachagaming

If you’re going to post links to little known games, just try to have some content added so it looks less like spam.

We’re a little concerned that you’re a ten day old account, and you don’t have much history. Additionally, the type of posting you’ve been doing can look a bit spammy.

Immich is better if you can host it.

Welcome. You should see a report on the community now. Note that you’re not required to do anything about the reported content unless it violate Lemmy.World rules, but you should be able to acknowledge/clear the report.

I agree with your argument, but not what you’ve applied it to.

“Federation” isn’t the main feature of Lemmy, and we don’t need to focus on it. It’s enough that it exists. When selling a house, would the first thing you focus on be the insurance rates if something goes wrong?

I’m a little concerned about your sporadic posting history. Can you make a point to check in roughly once a week? Especially if the community gets more busy. You may consider adding additional mods in the future as well. A comment or post once in awhile helps us to know you’re active.

I’ll take a look tomorrow. Ping me if I don’t respond in 24 hours.

If you haven’t resolved this DM me the name of the mod you’d like to remove.

Especially on mobile.

Its Ubuntu 24.04. When I started it, it took quite awhile and then said “there as a problem, please log out”.

Now that I’ve got it started (where I’m posting from now), it still refuses to arrange my monitors. And I have no idea what this 5th, 13.3" monitor is supposed to be.

It looks like my issues are related to this hardware. I guess that’s understandable. I thought this hardware would be transparent to the OS, and apparently it’s not.

If I hit apply here, it will fail and put them back in a line. I’ll also get around 4 fps and no cursor on the additional monitors.

I installed a fresh copy of, I believe, Debian. Wayland, for some reason, couldn’t handle 4 monitors, with one above the other three.

Not the issue I expected on a fresh install. Oh, and the biggest issue I had with Windows was copied straight into Linux. I want my (single) taskbar on a monitor that isn’t my primary.

I’m currently back to Windows. It was already going to be a rough transition, and missing the ideas I was looking for while also adding complications just hasn’t made it worth it.

Mumble is another strong, open source, self-hosted option.
