Thank you so much! It’s nice to know others agree. I’ve been so concerned with all of this, thinking I’m the only one thinking this, but I’m not. We’re ALL thinking this. And I’ve been having an absolute BLAST. Not just for myself, but doing my Fireside Fedi show and even working towards setting up my nonprofit BT Free. We’ll see where it all goes. Maybe it just us, but at least we have each other. :-) Thank you for the kind words of support. <3

Every little bit counts.

I’m not doing a publishing platform really. And I can’t seem to get email going. I’ve tried with MailerSend and while I know I can send email, through swaks, Ghost just won’t. Someone told me it only uses MailGun, which I attempted to set up and after 2 days the DNS verification didn’t go through, even though I konw for a fact it was there. And at this point I really don’t want lock in to a specific service if that’s true.

That looks really nice! Thank you for the recommendation. Still trying to figure out what to use. :-)

Very sad. Good luck in whatever you do.

I’m looking and I’m not seeing a troll. I’m seeing someone that’s looking for help and seems to not really understand a lot of what’s around them buddy. And yes, I’ll defend people.

Why are you spending so much time responding aggressively to people.

And yes, I kind of assumed it was your instance.

If the person is a troll, then ignore them. Why do you feel you have to attack them? You’re not defending anyone by putting someone else down. Just because you don’t understand them, doesn’t make them a troll.

Downvotes are because a lot of folks are against ChatGPT and LLMs. We’re going through MANY information transitions in the last 40 years and yet another holy grail is difficult to swallow. If you want to ask ChatGPT that’s fine, but I’m trying to get folks to foster the Fediverse and make it more welcoming, more valuable, and heck just help people find us. Use the tools you want, absolutely. But we also need to find ways to help promote the Fediverse.

Hey thanks! Just a point of advice starting a conversation with “that’s fucking stupid” isn’t exactly seen as useful or helpful information. I’m just attempting to start conversations and help promote the fediverse so that it continues to grow. If you want to offer any helpful advice instead of being negative, that’s be great.

Kalvin I recommend you just block people and if their instance harasses you you can report them. While they might own their instance your instance, Lemmy.world might ban their entire instance and then they’re totally gone.

Here’s a thought, maybe not harass someone? Try to be kind and compassionate? You have 3 people on your instance, so I imagine that’s just you or a friend’s. Kalvin could of and looking at the comments here alone, should have, reported you to Lemmy.world and they could ban your entire instance. So why not just try to actually get along with folks?

OH! LOVE THIS! Thank you KAGI!

Thank you! I shall look into that!

I’m a sysadmin by trade, I just don’t know the HTML and CSS stuff. :-D Thank you very much for the detail response though! That’s great for folks to find and learn! :-)

Never stop learning! Never stop growing! Never stop evolving! We’re here for a short time, keep moving forward in whatever that is to you. :-)

Yup, heard of them, used them very briefly. I think it’s time to give it a try again! :-D Thank you!

Oh another interesting one! I shall check into that! Thank you! :-D

And I think that’s what we should do. Or even ask the question, search it on Google, and answer your own post! :-) We need to foster the Fediverse by existing in the Fediverse and stop depending on Big Tech or using them to help build OUR internet. :-)

Thank you for the suggestion! I’ll look into the themes! :-)

Yes! I can. I’m just TERRIBLE with Dev Stuff and not a fan either. lol But if you have recommends on how to host something like that and make it look ince, I’m all for hearing it! :-)

Love this! Thank you so much! :-)
