They think we’re cattle, but cattle won’t eat the rich.

I have always told folks that I managed, that I’m nothing without them. Yea, I have a MBA as well, but man, are alot of those business folks short sighted to a fault. Like lack of empathy and foresight.

If your KPI’s are based around having a knowledge worker in a chair in a room, your business should die.

Plain and simple.

It’s actually a whole team 💗

We love to be the home of smaller communities, but for sure, any larger ones should look into running on their own setup. If you need help, drop us a line!

The key is to tag all your posts, so other people can find them. You get followers here and there, but not too often. I never post of Lemmy, but post a ton of stuff on Mastodon. TBH, I mostly doom scroll RSS these days.

Basically Inoreader -> InstaPaper -> Mastodon

Welcome to Lemmy, here’s your free copy of Linux 😂

Different things for different needs.

I get all my news from RSS feeds and get JUST my social media from Mastodon. Lemmy is more for the quick Reddit fix.

Same, just use FolderSync to get photos to it. Works like a cham.

I used to do IT work for one, they were afraid of WiFi, no joke…

Best part about Debian. Once you install it, you have, Debian. Nothing more, nothing less.

Ah, neat. Been wanting to add all my peeps on Flickr to it. I’m curious how their “magic” option works. Also might be able to do neat stuff w their API.

I’ve looked at other options as well over they years. I just ended up with Inoreader. You get 150 feeds for free and the interface is amazing. Also works with a ton of different apps.

Totally didn’t different uses.

My man!!! I forget about this site!

eBay and look for used Dell servers. I’d go for a Dell R2x0 series for a starter box. Maybe a used Dell Workstation if you want a tower.

Neat! I’ll check it out!

Yeah, for business I use both and Slack is quite nice to work with. Everyone forgets the hidden cost of running your own chat server. It’s fine for a hobby, but I’d always have a larger company run critical back end services. They have the time and the money to invest in keeping things working when it matters most.

Matrix is nice and Mattermost is basically self hosted Slack. Probably better off with Matrix, if you don’t need voice. Mattermost I’d you do. Rocket chat seems nice as well. I’d probably run Matrix and Mumble?

You should join forces with Terminal Trove ❤️💪

It’s expensive to run your own servers, even with Hetzner, Vultr and Digital Ocean.

I would recommend KoFi for donation services. It’s what we prefer.
