It would be better to have mods elected by the community after a certain amount of time. Like leave it up to the users or the main site admin. Might also lead to less mod burn out too.

Some communities are choosing to go to world kinda recently.

Personally kinda a nothing burger to me but its strange to move when the community which is solidified on one instance. Its fine to have multiple communities in multiple places…

World is the most vanilla of the servers in my experience.

Its only southern thank god. Most of us are still ok.

Ashes tend to go up so that is partially what you are seeing.

One thing is that kbin/mbin/piefed/etc…etc… interact with lemmy all the time. Its getting a bit hazy if “lemmy” the platform is growing or if the entirety of the fediverse is growing and others are communicating with the software. We are now seeing quite a few accounts from all over the web interacting with lemmy communities. Is that a new “user” according to the stats? Or is that person a one off from mastodon?

What I a seeing is a general increase in discussion on the platform and increase in posts from all over the fediverse. Which is awesome!

yep peertube is great. Im partial to https://makertube.net/ or https://tilvids.com/ but theres a ton: https://joinpeertube.org/instances

2 in my local area. It’s how I found out about it. We have been slowly growing the community.

It was :(

My pi 4 is right on the cusp. 3 B+ was the best when it came to no dongles and power. Now its taking about the same power as a mini PC and you have to by the enclosure, fans/heatsink/dongles/etc…etc… I suppose you can still buy the old pis but man I miss when that was the form factor they were going for.

I bring over my 3/4 for hacking projects all the time. But I cant justify the 5 without looking at getting a mini pc for 10$ more and it comes with a hard drive ment to last longer than an SD.

sure

I have a meshtastic script that runs once a day that sends a weather report for our local area at 6:00 am. It was based off a script that some awesome person did. I also have a script that once a week sends out ham/meshtastic events to all local people. Its worked out pretty well.

Its hitting a lot of people that were relying on the sale of their solar in order to offset their loans for the systems.

You cant legally disconnect a residential residence in CA from the grid unless you get some HEAVY permits. Thats one of the reasons PGE introduced the minimum fee, people with solar. Some people were making a profit pushing electricity into the grid so they make it 0.03c per kwh credit instead of wholesale.

Half the houses over here have solar now when you drive down the street. Im thinking of getting it too.

We have higher market share 4%+. Thats the biggest one for me. We were at 3% earlier in the year.

He does bug me in his coverage in “problems” he says linux has in other videos, but he does research quite a it. So better than most. Like I love my steamdeck and linux support…

Yep. And they are talking about more increases this year.

Ive hosted on a variety of platforms (docker in house and cloud) I find yunohost the easiest. Theres a nextcloud package that just…installs at a click of a button. And the scripts are all there open source so you know what your getting.

Unfortunately its still all in one “container” in that its all on one machine. So it might not be what your looking for. Ive ran my nextcloud for a number of years now and the stability of yunohost has been great for me.

I personally think that as long as our data has value to someone it will stay. Unfortunately(?) I think a vast majority of it will go the way of the void.

Space has cost.

Ironically that means platforms that cannot produce value from old messages will probably delete them. All these bytes are on storage media that probably wont last 10 years let alone 100+. Also never mind that the data itself will have to be on a media that other systems can use…so the html of today may not be used in 50 years or so, so reduces its value further. “Value” is subjective, but for most commercial platforms, its literally the amount of $$ they can get for the data. As soon as the data reaches 0$, it gets deleted. And as things get older and people die, these messages/data/etc… get lost, deleted, corrupted, or incompatible with the technology of the day.

But short term, everyone is pulling our data because it has a VERY high value. So dont say anything on the internet you would not want your parents finding out :)

The flip has some great ports apparently. Balatro being one of them. I’m hoping for the same as you. I want a steam Gameboy like.

Whats the best phone one can buy for postmarketos?

Yep its one of the bigger issues. I wanted to get a uconsole, but ive heard the support is not the greatest. And the wait times are horrendous for the hardware.

I have 2 terabyte hard drives that get backed up when I remember.

I like the form factor, but seeing the issues with supply on hackberrypi and uconsole, im hoping they dont have the same issue. Lots of people like that form factor (including myself).
