It’s relatively popular in DACH countries.

I use it sometimes. It has its fair share of issues, and the back end is not open-source, but it is OK for the most part. Main benefit is that you don’t need a mobile number to sign up.

But if you are looking for an alternative IM to use with friends and family, I would rather suggest XMPP, specifically Snikket.

We just had a very similar topic here: slrpnk.net/post/9408197

But if you are especially interested in gardening: I am currently thinking about how to DIY a simple automated irrigation system for the tomatoes and pepper plants in my little greenhouse so that I can do a camping trip later this summer without them dying.

I use Arch btw. 😅 (well, actually I don’t any more, but this had to be here)

As it seems to double as a balcony solar inverter if you add some PV pannels the price seems to be not so bad. A 2KWh LiPO4 battery, charge-controller and inverter alone will cost you at least half of the asking price.

Self-hosted website for posting web novel/fiction

Hey hello, self-hosting noob here. I just want to know if anyone would know a good way to host my writing. Something akin to those webcomic sites, except for writing. Multiple stories with their own “sections” (?) and a chapter selection for each. Maybe a home page or profile page to just briefly detail myself or whatever, I...

It works nicely, but for some weird reason spammers really like it, so never open registrations on it.

Is it possible to set the old navigation style as the default via an ENV parameter?

My first impression is that it doesn’t work very well on desktop. Maybe on mobile it is better, but there are many other mobile apps for Lemmy…

Maybe there could be an option to only enable it on small screens?

Can you please document how (via ENV) in the readme? Thanks!

Gogs started it originally, but was forked into Gitea years ago and hasn’t seen much development since.

Forgejo is a newer fork of Gitea after the IP rights to Gitea were (secretly) transferred to a for-profit company and some of the developers started to turn the project into a commercial open-core one.

Not yet, but they are the ones actively working on it, so it will likely arrive there first. Still a few months out though.

I recently looked this up again and it looks like the person who started the federation work in Gitlab got a new job and isn’t really working on it any more. So sadly this seems to be on hold as Gitlab the company is not themselves investing staff-hours into federation.

Maybe once the US sees significant number of climate IDPs, they will get a bit more empethatic to other climate migrants, but sadly the opposite will probably happen.

Step one was completed, but the main OS upgrade I will probably do this evening instead.

Edit: All complete now, but I found another issue that will need another downtime in the coming weeks. Nothing major though.

You get focus time?

They need to give you some time to answer emails from management 🙄

Well, at this point it is not entirely clear what Dekard will be. There are some details that point to it being a hybrid of both a VR optimised Qualcomm SoC and a SteamDeck like x86 system.

They are probably experimenting with various form factors, one of which could be a belt mounted box with the x86 part that you can alternatively use as a set top box in a more stationary setting.

That "charity ship” claim is a fabrication by right-wing media that has no basis in truth and has been even thrown out of court in Italy. Please stop perpetuating such lies.

What is actually happening is that they are paying Libyanese mafia militia for illegal push back operations and they don’t want witnesses for that.
