This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.

Since Lemmy.ca is really gaining new users, we could try again to make a Lemmy.ca instance chat room on discord + element + telegram and bridge them all together. Thoughts?

AFAIK https://matrix.to/#/#lo_canada:mozilla.org is the biggest Canada themed matrix chat room. It's not partnered with Lemmy.ca or anyone and I believe they were asked before and didn't want to partner up....

I like this idea as well. I could put it on my matrix server, or wherever else, doesn't really matter to me. Can also put it in the sidebar of the instance as well.

weird, for some reason I wasn't subscribed to this community. Sorry about that! On to your question:

https://lemmy.ca/c/support@beehaw.org will work now, but only because you have to first search for it, either using the url for the instance it's on (https://beehaw.org/c/support) or the following format (!support).

I believe that's just how the federation works on lemmy, if the no one has searched and/or subscribed to the remote community, you will get the 404 error code.

hope that makes sense!

edit: also, when searching for it, give it a good 5-10 seconds for the result to show up. i believe it needs to query the server and takes a bit sometimes.

partial upgrades aren't supported I believe, but i believe if you really wanted you could add the following line to your /etc/pacman.conf:

IgnorePkg = linux

myself, I just depending on the server i'm upgrading, i just don't update as frequently and reboot the machine if needed (i don't think there's any getting around that).

Hello & welcome!

I'm currently running this on a small VPS at linode, but i've been thinking about switching to a more canadian-based vps that i've used in the past.

lemmy the software has very low system requirements, so it's currently running on a 1 CPU 2 GB RAM vm.

edit: whoops meant to say "low", not "slow"!

from what i can see all posts are there that should be there? it could be that it took a bit for the post to federate?

is this the post you’re referring to? https://lemmy.ca/post/435196
