Eddie,

Well, those empty parts aren’t going to fill themselves!

Real talk tho, very impressive. Hope you have a cool set up to play them with.

I should feel bad about myself for selfhosting using Yunohost?

I recently got into the world of self-hosting, and although I’m doing it through a VPS I’ve learned many interesting things, even so, I’ve only had my VPS contracted for 10 days, and of those 10 days, 8 I spent burning my head learning concepts that I had never heard or understood, and actually it’s funny because I...

Eddie,

I spent days trying to go from 0-100 figuring out the technical stuff and was making myself very stressed out and upset. I decided to just go to Yunohost and it just made things dead simple and in retrospect, enjoyable.

When I’m ready to learn I’ll spin up a new server and try to implement the same services the “hard” way, but for now I’ll continue to enjoy all the benefits of self hosted with a dead simple solution for implementing it. Don’t let e-peens get you down.

Eddie,

I love how this is almost laid out like a chart. Each row is a different category of things to work on as somebody with ADHD. The left half is what to try to do and the right half is what not to do. All we can do is keep trying.

Eddie,

This is so relatable it hurts. If this were reddit I’d give you gold.

Eddie,

These last 24 hours have really just felt like a better reddit. I find content here now. I laugh at memes here now. I didn’t know anybody on Reddit and this is just better.

Eddie,

If you’re super new to all of this, check out Yunohost. You can either run it on Debian 11 or use their own OS image. Its a simple UI interface and makes apps deployable with one click. Doesn’t support everything but I have this running beside my docker just because it’s so dang easy to use and maintain.

What are we?

What do Lemmy users call themselves? What do Kbin users call themselves? What about Mast?

So far I can't come up with anything better than "Fediziens"

Eddie,

Lemmings, binnies, and dons. I declare it here and now

Eddie,

I’ve been running around Lemmy trying to get new people to use this. This script is awesome and saved me so much time.

Eddie,

Been switching accounts every time I learn something new about self hosting, but I’ve been here about a month as well!

Haven’t checked reddit in 2 weeks and I’m not looking back. This place is awesome! Self hosting is awesome!

No luck getting my Lemmy instance up and running, is this a good place to get some help?

I’m not exactly a linux beginner but I’m far from an expert and I could use some pointers. I have a domain and a VPS through Namecheap, I chose Ubuntu 20.04 LAMP and I’ve tried several guides to get this working but something always goes wrong sooner or later....

Eddie,

If you’re looking to set up a server quickly and easily, check out Lemmy Easy Deploy by ubergeek77. Just change the host name to your domain name in the config file and you’re good to go.

If you’re trying to access your home server from the internet, I recommend a cloudflare tunnel. Let me know if you need assistance! My dms are open

Eddie,

Yes, since Easy Deploy deploys using the docker container, lemmy will show up as a stack in portainer, just with limited editability

If Lemmy and Mastodon continues to get popular, we will eventually get Instance wars.

If the descentralization of social networks continue, we will have to prepare for the eventual rise of the instances wars, where people will start to fight about which instance is better and which one is weird to be in and so on, but that’s for the future of us all.

Eddie,

sounds lit. do you all take butter and salt with your popcorn?

Any love for the N64?

I don’t see many posts here about the N64 and it doesn’t look like there is an N64 community on lemmy.world It’s the console I have the most nostalgia for and I have over 130 games in my collection. I’m currently playing a ROM hack called SM64: Beyond the Cursed Mirror. It has some pretty challenging platforming but it...

Eddie,

Always love me some N64. Unfortunately, it hasn’t aged as well as some of the other retro consoles since the dips in framerate was pretty common for that machine even back when it was new. In comparison, the SNES still outputs a clean 60fps, as it was more of a priority back then.
