There was a fan and the fan decided it wanted to make loud noises and become unbearable and thus gekinzuku was moved again.

If you're having problems connecting to Discord on Desktop today, try your phone and/or phone data. If that doesn't work, connecting over VPN seems to solve the issue for now: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37701476 You also may be able to use the website version for today. EDIT: Changing your DNS may also resolve the issue. You are not actually blocked; it seems to be affecting a lot of people at the moment.

"empty/corrupt snapshot file" is a solvable issue. Look into pict-rs's storage in the sled directories. there should be some files that have .snap at the end. if any of these are zero-sized, delete them. if none of them are zero-sized, delete the most recently created one. then restart pict-rs https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2653

    Rclone is a cool little CLI tool for Linux/WSL that allows you to backup, sync, and even mount various cloud server provider options on your desktop/server and protect your data. For additional security, you can encrypt the files before they are uploaded to the cloud so even the folder & file names, and file types are encrypted. By doing this client-side encryption you can pretty safely assume your files are free for snooping. Your password can be two passwords so you can access it from machine as well and recover your archive in case of your device failing. Once you have a crypt volume setup you can then copy your files manually, sync a directory to the cloud, or even mount your cloud drive as a local directory for easy exploration. ``` sudo apt install rclone ``` Then run: ``` rclone config ``` *Optional:* You don't have to use your own API keys but you'll be sharing it with everyone else who uses rclone with the default API keys and they throttle the connections with usage. So it's best to setup your own oauth consent screen and credentials here: https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/ If you want a detailed guide on configuring rclone for Google Drive check this guide: https://www.maketecheasier.com/rclone-sync-multiple-cloud-storage-providers-linux/ After you have a cloud account connected and named, you can create a crypt volume on top of it: https://www.maketecheasier.com/use-rclone-crypt-encrypt-files/ rclone github: https://github.com/rclone/rclone

    Question About Self-Hosting Lemmy Instance & Federation
  • GeekyLink GeekyLink 1y ago 100%

    This looks pretty cool, I might have to check it out later, thanks. I was a little disappointed that you need to add all the other communities manually to get them on "all". I'm a little worried I need to upgrade my tiny instance before I try automatically adding everything though.

    Thanks for the description, seems a little counterintuitive to me, but I think I get it now. I removed the allow list and after some time it cleared up quite a bit, also rebooted it and then the "hot" page looked a lot better. I think another issue is that my instance has a pitiful amount of resources and is very slow so it also just takes a long time to get synced up with new communities but it's definitely better now after some days.

    So I set up a self-hosted lemmy instance to play around with but I'm a bit confused by how the federation system is supposed to work. I followed these instructions to get setup: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html I then found that I was having issues deploying the lemmy proxy as it could not find the nginx config. I was able to resolve that issue by adding the nginx internal config from the git to my instance like so: ```bash wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/main/templates/nginx_internal.conf ``` I noticed that I couldn't search for any instances from my personal instance, so in the "Allowed Instances" in the server settings on the web UI I added: lemmy.ml lemmy.world programming.dev and sopuli.xyz I figured that adding some of the major instances should kick-start the federation process and allow it to find other things, but it seems it does not. Now I've been able to subscribe to a couple communities from my instance, memes@lemmy.ml and lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world and of course this Selfhosted community. However, I still cannot seem to add others, for example it still fails to find anything when I try to add memes@sopuli.xyz Additionally, I can't seem to see comments from most other users on most of the posts that I do see for some reason. Even if those users are from one of those instances I've allowed, I still don't see them. Does anybody have any idea why this might be? For example, I'm quite sure I'm not going to see any of the comments on this post even though I posted it, I'll probably have to come back and check on another account to reply and I really don't understand why and would like to find a fix. Thanks.
