Well, I understand you.

Neither do I.

Last time I was in a church for a religious function was literally years ago…

So why would I care for somebody who shoot during a mass?

(/s if not obvious)

My use case is much simpler. I access via RDP client and that’s all, not needing multi monitor

Plasma and Gentoo user here.

The transition has been so uneventful and simple that I didn’t even noticed. I run some 15 desktops with different mixed hardware setups and use VNC / RDP sometimes too.

One day I started noticing on some desktops Wayland was now in use, by chance. Then I started taking notice.

I can say the ones moved to Wayland are smoother, but might be aneddotical. Beside that, cannot care less about X11 or Wayland, they both work just fine for all my use cases.

For the sake of future, welcome Wayland!

/smallrant Sorry for X11, have to say I have been in the business since kernel version 2 and I DO NOT miss losing X11, its a bunch of half assed half baked spaghetti tech that has done its own time and would not have kept up with life. /rantover.

My server has 48gb ram and in top Lemmy doesn’t appear even in the 0.1% memory usage.

Disk space 10gb, CPU/ram not noticeable on my server (lots of other services using more than Lemmy).

I think it’s been up about one year. One user but I subscribe to all communities I find remotely interesting.

Yeah, good idea… After all, who needs copy and paste at all? Better remove it at the root…

/ssssssss

Running “my” own single user instance here.

Great! Love it! The whole idea.

Agree on the handpicking yes. Nothing bad in reposting content, but mass posting just drowns communities and doesn’t generate engagement.

No thank you. Just leeching content from reddit will never get Lemmy anywhere.

I blocked all content reposted from Lemmy (there was an instance dedicated to that iirc).

First of all, posts without comments are pointless. Interaction and comments is what grows Lemmy. Second, bot posts are not well received by most here I think.

I can see it useful only as a “reddit backup” of kind, in case the platform goes offline for good and all that is lost.

I would worry for the level of moderation required to filter shitty / ai / bots etc.

Well, that’s true of most internet. Luckly, internet Is not (yet) real life.

I am not american and frankly find American style polemics quite hard to understand. Mind me I have quite a few american good friends, and I lived in the USA for a few years too, nothing against USA itself.

But yes Tolerance is at the base of civil life and that’s true even with intolerant people.

How does the Lemmy creators actually personally benefit from the fact I run my own Lemmy instance?

I do not donate to them, but how is the technology created be them evil if it fits my concept of decentralized web?

Do they get money because I run my instance o use another one not under their control? O doubt it

I am actually using their tech against themselves, so what?

Maybe the fact I am not a native speaker affect how my words are understood.

Actually yes fascist and communist are two ends of the spectrum, I have no idea what tankies means, it seems to be some slang or jargon.

But no, why would using lemmy means people from Lemmy.ml controlling what we read? That’s totally bonkers.

And you seems to be from a non US instance, it might be related to the fact you seems to be the only agreeing with me.

But yes, at the end the concept it the technology should not be judged by the political views of the creator.

I also agree with not supporting it finacially if that money goes where you don’t like.

I really don’t like this dangerous trend of condemning actions of people based on wether we agree with them or disagree with them.

Because this behavior is at the base for intolerance and strong polarization.

First of all, I want to judge your actions for what they are, not for what your political views are. So Lemmy is good and I like that full stop. There will be better alternatives (maybe already are) and I will judge them without agreeing with their creators political views.

Second, I prefer to discuss and interact with people who have different views and political ideas than me, because that’s where I grow my ideas and enforce or dispute them. Enough of the echo chamber where the “algorithm” already places us in every social fucking media.

Kids, it’s by enforcing and supporting even the ideas contrary to yours that you grow up. Yes this is annoying and can cause serious brain engagement, but yeah, that’s how we progress.

Even fascists or communist ideas. Zionist or pro-Palestine, pro gender or anti woke, if we start judging peoples actions only for their ideas we become fascists.

I was also tought that what you do is more significant than what you say. Judge by actions, not words.

So I don’t dislike technology because the guy behind it is a fascist or a communist.

Said so, if anybody thinks that can do a better Lemmy by forking it, go ahead and let me judged by the actions.

I use endurain but mostly to backup my Garmin activities.

It’s nice, lots of development and efforts and very polished.

Install Linux and turn that into a server with bonus UPS

Use adguard as private DNS, or use something like dns66 that creates a fake vpn and applies dns blocklists.

No need for root to block ads in 2025

Love ha.

I suggest to purchase a home assistant gren device as its really well done and super stable. I moved to one of those after hosting ha on many different devices over time, and would not go back.

You also support the project, which is cool.

SAS drives tends to be top quality server stuff… I would keep them until the break then replace with cheaper sata.

Unless you need something less power hungry (SSSs?) or less noisy.

Also keep the hardware raid, why not. You should be able to remove the raid inside its bios and see the four disks individually.
