Ah I see. I’ve gotten into some back and forth with the maintainer of Caddy about these build inconsistencies and lack of versioning, and he responded by locking issues on me… twice.

After that communication, I resigned to just keep things as they are because upstream is not willing to make the experience better for use cases like these.

He is impossible to work with, but Caddy is just really good :/

What issue did you have? If I can handle it for the user automatically, I can add a best effort attempt to avoid it.

Hi!

The project is still active! I just haven’t needed to develop any updates because it’s currently stable, and the upstream Docker compose template, which is a reference for my project, hasn’t changed in 9 months:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/blob/main/templates/docker-compose.yml

Whenever Lemmy releases a new Docker container, it will just pull the latest one automatically. This will continue to be compatible indefinitely until the compose deployment (linked above) has any breaking changes added to it that I need to incorporate.

Thank you for the shout out :)

If you don’t want to open this and solder a chip, then no, you can’t do what you want.

The closest you can get is to enable AutoRCM, which will cause the Switch to always boot into recovery mode and accept a payload. This skips the need to use a jig in the Joy-Con rail, but you still need to inject a payload. And because recovery mode is just a black screen, you don’t have any visual feedback to know if the Switch is actually in recovery mode, or if the battery is just dead.

Your best option is to just boot into whatever OS you use most, then make it a habit to keep it charged enough to not shut down.

Definitely recommend Motrix:

If the Google download link supports it, it should be fairly resistant to interruptions. If it doesn’t, this might not help much, but you should still use this instead of just a browser.

I haven’t tried to download a Google takeout, so you might need to get clever with how you add the download link to it.

If you just can’t get it to work, you can try getting the browser extension to automatically send all downloads to Motrix. There is some setup required, though:

Good luck!

You guys make this sound like some kind of doomsday movie.

I’m not downplaying how bad things are, but if you really have the several thousand dollars you’d need to actually uproot your entire life just sitting around, good for you. Most people don’t have that kind of free money.

And good luck moving if you have pets, or have family members you care for. Have you guys even been to your “target” countries? Do you have plans for how you’ll make income? How does healthcare work in your target country?

If you have all that figured out, and have nothing to leave behind, then good for you, I really do hope you end up better off. But this panicked response of “What are you waiting for, run!!!” is way more entitled than people seem to think.

It should still work!

I only go back and make changes to LED if something breaks with a major Lemmy update, but Lemmy hasn’t had a major update since January. Lemmy v0.19.4 isn’t released yet, but when it is, I’ll make sure the deployment is up to date.

Note that it does not have any advanced features that a major instance might want, such as storing images on S3, exporting data, or image moderation. If you intend for your instance to grow for 100+ users, this isn’t for you. This is only intended for beginners who are overwhelmed by the other Lemmy hosting options, and want an easy way to host a small single-user or small-user instance.

I’m scratching my head to think what Vultr could do better in this case

There was substantial room for improvement in the way they spoke publicly about this issue. See my comment above.

I still don’t like how flippant they’ve been in every public communication. I read the ToS. It’s short for a ToS, everyone should read it. They claim it was taken “out of context,” but there wasn’t much context to take it out of. The ToS didn’t make this distinction they’re claiming, there was no separation of Vultr forum data from cloud service data. It was just a bad, poorly written ToS, plain and simple.

They haven’t taken an ounce of responsibility for that, and have instead placed the blame on “a Reddit post” (when this was being discussed in way more detail on other tech forums, Vultr even chimed in on LowEndTalk).

As for this:

Section 12.1(a) of our ToS, which was added in 2021, ends with “for purposes of providing the Services to you.” This is intended to make it clear that any rights referenced are solely for the purposes of providing the Services to you.

This means nothing. A simple “we are enhancing your user experience by mining your data and giving you a better quality service” would have covered them on this.

We only got an explanation behind the ToS ransom dialog after their CMO whined in a CRN article. That information should have been right in the dialog on the website.

In both places, they’ve actively done vague things to cause confusion, and are offended when people interpret it incorrectly.

There was no judgement, only a settlement. Yuzu is not “illegal.” Nintendo can abuse DMCA and request GitHub take these down, and GitHub will probably listen, but Nintendo would not be “legally in the right” to do so.

Then I’m probably wrong. It’s not clear at all how those apps are doing it though. The API documentation is rough.

It doesn’t seem like the Lemmy API provides any way to tell if a remote instance has downvotes disabled or not.

You are giving it the -d flag. -d means “detached.” There are logs, you are just preventing yourself from seeing them.

Replace the -d with an -i (for interactive) and try again.

Have you completed the podman rootless setup in order to be able to use it? You may need to edit /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid to get containers to run:

https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/docs/tutorials/rootless_tutorial.md#etcsubuid-and-etcsubgid-configuration

More than likely, this might have something to do with podman being unprivileged, and this wanting to bind to port 80 in the container (a privileged port). You may need to specify a --userns flag to podman.

Running in interactive mode will give you the logs you want and will hopefully point you in the right direction.

It is. The user just won’t see any content from the server they blocked.

That’s entirely different. As an individual, I have the choice to send emails to, or block emails from, Gmail.com.

But on Lemmy, if I am on an instance that federates with Threads, and I don’t want Threads.net to get a copy of my content or posts (or have my content or posts show up on Threads.net in the future), then tough shit for me, my only option is to either go silent or move to an instance that has defederated from Threads.

People keep making the email argument, but it is not the same thing at all. I don’t think it’s fair for a large percentage of lemmy.world’s users to not have a voice in a decision that will absolutely impact them, nor is it fair to have a stance of “then leave then.”

Hi :)

If you’re already running an instance, you’re not going to have a good time of this on the same server unfortunately. The webserver config I ship assumes a single instance, and all of the handling assumes only one domain. You would have to basically modify my entire script to support something like this.

You can take a look at my advanced configuration page to figure out what files you can edit, but this would be a very manual process for what you want to do.

Apologies, but you would be better off deploying a new server.

We can thank all that tetraethyllead gas that was pumping lead into the air from the 20s to the 70s. Everyone got a nice healthy dose of lead while they were young. Made 'em stupid.

OP’s mom breathed nearly 20 years worth of polluted lead air straight from birth, and OP’s grandmother had been breathing it for 33 years up until OP’s mom was born. Probably not great for early development.

You can make “brand accounts” on YouTube that are a completely different profile from the default account. She probably won’t notice if you make one and switch her to it.

You’ll probably want to spend some time using it for yourself secretly to curate the kind of non-radical content she’ll want to see, and also set an identical profile picture on it so she doesn’t notice. I would spend at least a week “breaking it in.”

But once you’ve done that, you can probably switch to the brand account without logging her out of her Google account.

All of these are really good examples of writing a good email, except the bottom left one.

The “wrong” example is perfectly fine, and the “correct” example is pretty rude unless you’re a project manager addressing your team. Even if you were a project manager, it’s still pretty rude.

Not only did I add threads.net to my blocked instances list, I also went scorched Earth and outright blocked Facebook’s entire IP range through my firewall. Don’t want them “accidentally” reading any data from my server ;)

For reference, their IP range is 157.240.0.0/16:

Edit: Actually, I might have more IPs to block:
