Another cross post of the most upvoted card :-)

Please tell if you like it, I have a whole bunch of those trading cards!

Hello !

I'm a self hoster of a lemmy art instance. I would like to have the possibility to make informative videos, for example how do you do large flat areas in watercolor or how does this paper holds up etc.

I guess those videos would be minutes long and seen maybe dozens of times per year (or decade), that's why I would like to try to self host them (I have a ~700Mb up line) but good luck searching for it or my google-fu (Duck duck go fu...) has totally left me.

I would love to integrate it with lemmy but I'm not there yet (haven't even compiled the sources) so some sort of web serving would perfectly do.

Any idea of where to start off? FOSS would be lovely off course:-)

Thank you !

Hello!

Why is my:

https://lemmy.mindoki.com/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

having only old posts with zero comments when:

https://lemmy.ml/c/asklemmy

is full of new posts and comments?

Is lemmy.ml federating small communities or is there some reason why I'm not getting the Ew information?

I'm subbed with a user from my instance.

Cheers!

Hello !

When someone connects to my instances communities, but from another instance, how do I know it's no spoofing involved?

Cheers

Hello !

I'm here again this time with a small report about the latest version 0.18.4.

When on Jarboa, and I go to the Inbox, the server starts spewing this same (except the request_id) warning I have attached at the end of the message.

Really fast too, like maybe 30 in under one second.

The inbox is thus really sluggish, but it does work, and interestingly it seems to get better over time (but I haven't gotten any new messages).

HTH

Cheers

Loulou !

Hello !

My instance is up and running (obligatory YaY!) so these errors are not that important, but I'd like to know what they are and if there is something I can do about them.

Thank you all!

.

Is there some way to increase the number of slots, or should this like never happen on a tiny server on a beefy CPU?

.

Some sort of miss-match and voting related?

Hello again everybody!

I have found out some very nice "commands" you can use on your own server, like

https://lemmy.mindoki.com/communities

To list all your communities, or

https://lemmy.mindoki.com/instances

To see all the communities that you are federating with (? I think)

and another type: https://lemmy.mindoki.com/api/v3/community/list?sort=Hot&Limit=1

That gives you a json of your instances.

I checked out the API documentation but I didn't find anything like it there.

Are there other "commands" like this (I guess yes) and is there an official list somewhere?

Hello everybody!

Things run better than ever with my little Lemmy instance, so I'd like Lemmy to write less to the console (I'm running the Lemmy docker, all logging by default), rust is already at WARN by default, but how do you change Lemmy, pictrs etc?

There is this peculiar line in the docker-compose file:

logging: *default-logging

Is there some warn-logging or other ?

It seems Docker doesn't care at all and it is really the instances (as in docker instances) that produces all the outputs.

Cheers!

Hello all!

I'm the proud owner of a selfhosted Lemmy server, Yay :-) and I wondered if it wouldn't be a good ides to somehow gather a list of small instances so that we can add them to our "Allowed Instances" list EDIT: DO NOT DO THIS!! It will Break Federation, see below!, and them to add ours (mine has no real users yet).

The reason is that so everyone doesn't need to flock to the big ones only, and help that rare niche community getting some rare exposure so maybe you'll stumble onto it one day when filtering by New. Today they don't get any at all I guess.

In my memory, Reddit was like that back in the day when it was good, real enthusiasts (and a lot more for sure) but hard to come by. You'd stumble on some weird sub about nanotech or fountainpens and meet likeminded people.

What do you think?

EDIT

DO NOT add anything to the "Allowed instances" as it will stop federation with any other instance!

To be perfectly clear, if you add lemmy.abc.com to the Allowed instances, your server will only federate with lemmy.abc.com. Ask me how I know :-)

So that's not good. Maybe we could set up a user_nice account on our servers, for those who want to, and sub to small subs reciprocally.
