yup, this is what I do and it works great. just be careful if you add plugins that store a ton of metadata that changes a lot (or logs) because that can lead to some sync conflicts and you might wanna exclude them. I’ve just been ignoring the sync conflicts tho and haven’t had issues yet so maybe you could do the same
is it a formatting step that an image goes through when uploaded? I’m tired of converting image after image back into jpg, so if there’s like a step I can take to avoid it being a webp, it would help to know
fair but “it” here is pretty vague. my guess is that, in your case, whatever part of “it” that processes the image handles webp files just fine but for some reason the devs made “it” reject file extensions that don’t match “.jpeg”, “.png”, “.whatever_else” for some reason before the file gets handled further.
you’re probably right about it being a permissions error but also including some relevant logs would be useful (or just stick all of them on pastebin or something and give us a link). could also be a docker misconfiguration considering it’s a different system and I assume they’re not identically set up with Ansible or something similar
edit: also id personally use tar because I’m not entirely sure zip files preserve linux permissions
edit again: from 2 seconds of google searches, I think I’m correct about that, so definitely try using tar
agreed, good find with that import/export feature, didn’t think to check for that since I don’t use tandoor. personally I’d just use the native import/export feature though since it feels less hacky than copying the whole DB imo. but if OP still wants to copy the files over, it might be easier to either just tar or tar + gzip rather than tar + zip so they can do it all in one command.
I checked out your edit and what’s going on is pretty weird. my recommendation (if you don’t wanna just use the native import/export feature and give up on DB dumps) is to (on the new server) create a minimal tandoor docker-compose.yml, run it, do minimal setup, see if it works, and if the fresh container works, check the permissions, then just replicate those perms for your other postgres directory that contains data you actually care about. good luck!
I’m using Jerboa, which I think is nice, but it doesn’t seem to me that it has any mod tools. This prevents me from addressing mod issues while I’m away from my computer. Are there any Android apps that come withod tools, such as report notifications, post/comment deletion, community editing, etc?...
honestly I don’t think it’s really a significant issue but if you’re worried just use a fs that can repair itself like zfs (not sure if btrfs can do that too but it might)
not sure where you are but in the US I see a lot of cheap used laptops being sold online with broken screens for example or messed up keyboard/touchpad, etc. stuff that would make it awful for use as a laptop but almost entirely unimportant for a server use-case (if the kb/touchpad is dead you can just plug in an external during initial setup/troubleshooting). of course you gotta make sure that it wasn’t damaged in a way that would matter more. ex: if the kb/touchpad are broken due to water damage I’d be wary of issues with other vital parts
exactly, leftists online piss me off a lot of the time bc it seems like a lot of them spend 99% of their time on their platform shitting on liberals instead of making use of the common ground to actual do something fucking useful. or don’t. because either way, in the US, no matter how moderate our liberals are, they’re leagues better than our conservatives.
So here’s my situation. I’ve been looking for a long time for a self-hosted photo library. I have pretty low requirements: I just want it to be able to show the videos and images I have stored on my NAS in a random order, and to support a slideshow of those files, also in a random order....
but the devs of these popular reddit apps likely have recycled a tonnn of their reddit app’s code into the Lemmy app and and are therefore working with a much more mature codebase that they’re also much more comfortable with. for example, I’m loving liftoff but it has so many random bugs that, while not awful, are a bit jarring. and the vast majority of them aren’t Lemmy bugs, they’re just normal app bugs that haven’t been worked out yet. and while I’m sure the liftoff devs are great, it’s a new app and will experience growing pains that sync likely won’t deal with as much.
Hello, I’m not sure where to ask this. But my login fails through every web browser. I can do a password reset, which logs me in. But then I cannot log in with the new password using another web browser. Anyone else having this issue?...
I put a ton of time into making Sync for Reddit look and behave exactly the way I liked it, and I don’t even know how I’d replicate that when Sync for Lemmy comes out. I can understand why it would be difficult but it would be so awesome
I doubt you’re being serious but I was curious and did the math. transferring 88000 TB over a 1Gbps connection would take 8148 days or over 22 years straight
My boss just did this, for a good reason as her partner unexpected and prematurely went into labour, but it did get me wondering in what other situation this is an acceptable thing to do
AsI understand it someone is paying for me to use this so should I try to limit my time here to keep their costs down? Should I avoid leaving it open casually? Is there a way to support instances that I enjoy?
best time to make that decision is the present. personally I just transferred over my subscriptions and deleted the account of the previous instance I was on. it didn’t take much time.
sorry! didn’t get a notification for this. but I’m liking lemm.ee because the instance is extremely well run and hasn’t had any noticable downtime or performance issues I’ve noticed with others. the person who runs it seems to really know what they’re doing and IIRC they’re a Lemmy dev.
