Apple.

I uses to be a huge Apple fan pre-2010. Everything worked, was smooth, wasn’t Windows, and it was fun trying out the terminal despite it being pretty useless for most things on Mac.

At the new decade is when it felt like Apple was becoming what it is today: a walled garden with priority of mobile devices at the detriment of Macintosh. Started to really look at Linux as an alternative (only tried Ubuntu in a VM around the time of Unity coming out) early 2010s, but didn’t make the full leap until around 2013 when I installed Linux Mint and got a Raspberry Pi to begin to mess around with. Now I solely run a mix of Debian and Void on all my machines and I couldn’t be happier.

I’d recommend conduit if you’re self-hosting, especially on limited resources. Very easy to set-up and fast, and although not on feature-parity with Synapse, it does now have Spaces and threading support which is huge

Genmai Cha is a staple for me, I’ll always have that around. Other than that I usually have two or three oolongs (Formosa and Jade right now), a black or two, and a few other greens. Really love the Jasmine Pearls I have right now too

This shit happens all the damn time where I live. By the end of the day it’s a trash pile as high as the container

I’ll disagree on Mastodon being unique given it’s an animal and a band - for a long time in its history it was always under those. It’s been helped on the search results front though given it’s increasing popularity (and I’m guessing yet another new surge due Twitter’s rate-limiting). In time once Lemmy continues to grow, I’m sure it’ll get pushed up in search rankings as well.

Void Linux

Infinity will also be able to be compiled with a personal API key. That means though that it’ll be limited to 10 calls per minute and no NSFW posts, and allegedly Reddit won’t like it, but I’ve been testing it out and it seems to work fine.

The absolute hypocrisy of sh.itjust.works banning lemmygrad, a communist instance dedicated to the working people of the world and the antithesis of fascism, yet allowing the potential for fascists to find a community on their server.

helix is incredible, completely replaced neovim for me. Granted I never used many plugins outside of language servers, so it was fairly easy to not worry about a lack of features.

This is really the only general video game community I followed on reddit given how young/toxic a lot of the other subs would be, so I’m glad for the community growing here on lemmy!

I’ve also heard about saint.to which could be an option

Working from home has made me so glad I don’t have to experience office coffee! That used to be my backup if I forgot to brew my french press or didn’t have enough time.

This is what makes our group different from the white anarchist — besides he views his group as already free. Now he’s striving for freedom of his individual self. This is the big difference. We’re not fighting for freedom of our individual selves, we’re fighting for a group freedom.

This is the clearest description on the fundamental core of anarchism; Huey put it perfectly. It just shows that anarchists have more in common foundationally with libertarians than actual socialists. Anarchists are individualists, and as such, see any fight towards the collective liberation of society at odds with their line of thinking. It’s also why anarchism is predominantly seen as a Western phenomena; individualism is central to capitalism, and especially the US (i.e. “rugged individualists”), so in ther mind they attempt to consolidate the two forms of thinking: they want to keep the benefits of being the privileged of the world in the center of imperialism and keep in line with its alienated and individualist nature, but twist what liberation would mean for the working class into an edgy ideology of “no gods, no masters”.

Anarchism or Socialism really hones in on that point as well.

The point is that Marxism and anarchism are built up on entirely different principles, in spite of the fact that both come into the arena of the struggle under the flag of socialism. The cornerstone of anarchism is the individual, whose emancipation, according to its tenets, is the principal condition for the emancipation of the masses, the collective body. According to the tenets of anarchism, the emancipation of the masses is impossible until the individual is emancipated. Accordingly, its slogan is: “Everything for the individual.” The cornerstone of Marxism, however, is the masses, whose emancipation, according to its tenets, is the principal condition for the emancipation of the individual. That is to say, according to the tenets of Marxism, the emancipation of the individual is impossible until the masses are emancipated. Accordingly, its slogan is: “Everything for the masses.”

Clearly, we have here two principles, one negating the other, and not merely disagreements on tactics.

No to lawns! Yes to native plants!

That’s how I always envisioned Lemmies to eventually grow, with each instance acting as a hub for a topic. Given the federated platform it makes perfect sense and allows for organized sub-communities.

startrek.website already exists, as does lemmygrad.ml and lemmyrs.org. Each as its own hub where communities can be split up in areas as memes, discussion, etc. based on what the instance requires.

The only one that I know of so far is !horror@lemmy.ml

There’s a couple I use: element (desktop & mobile), gomuks, nheko, and fluffychat.

I’m assuming you followed the deploy walkthrough? That should work pretty well on its own, but there might be some weird networking issues you could be having. First try running conduit once set up in the foreground to make sure it starts without issue, then try the health check listed in the instructions:

$ curl https://your.server.name/_matrix/client/versions

# If using port 8448
$ curl https://your.server.name:8448/_matrix/client/versions

If it fails here, I’d recommend stopping by their matrix room with another account. The room is active and helpful; I greatly appreciated the help I got in setting up my homeserver with a subdomain + pretty homeserver name i.e. without the subdomain. As conduit is still early in development it’d probably be good to have a backup account on matrix.org or another smaller homeserver (preferably the latter given how overloaded the former is).

For Matrix, I’d recommend conduit over synapse, with the expectation that all of synapse’s features haven’t yet been added (most notably support for spaces, which may or may not be a dealbreaker).

It’s incredibly easy to set-up and very lightweight. I never self-hosted synapse due to how resource-heavy it is, and constantly had issues with dendrite racking up resources as well.conduit has honestly been the easiest thing I’ve self-hosted.

So when an instance is blocked, it means users on the blocked instance will no longer be able to see that instance’s content. For example, beehaw.org has now blocked lemmy.world. However with the way federation works, the content from beehaw is cached on lemmy.world servers. So you can only see what has already been cached; there will be no updated content on any existing cache.

Edit: here’s a recent post from kbin.social going into further detail on how federation works.
