Many (if not most) new cars have their own cellular service built in. They spin this as being able to hotspot to your vehicle if you pay for data or being able to remote lock/start your vehicle with their app. However, the vehicle manufacturer has their own plan allowing them to relay back telemetry data regardless of whether you buy a data package.

Every community has their feeds listed in the sidebar. That is actually how the bot is controlled. It looks up communities, scrapes any RSS feeds in the sidebar and then posts any unseen links to the community.

Click the magnifying glass in the top right corner next to your notifications. Make sure you are searching for "All". There appears to be some sort of bug where if you search for communities that it won't return anything. If you search "All" it'll find the community. Make sure to put in the actual name of the community you're wanting to find in this format: !community@server.url. You wan't to put in the actual community name, not the friendly name. In this example I'm searching for Youtube News (yt_news) on Lemmy.link.

I would absolutely love to see it! The biggest hurdle so far has been finding quality RSS feeds.

[–] Notorious@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll get them added to my todo list.

Apologize if I ran afoul of any code-of-conduct. Haven't used the cross-post before and I wasn't sure if it would work across instances.

This is fantastic! Thank you!! I'll work through the list and see what I can do.

Absolutely fair points and I already had the concern about being "fair and balanced". The feeds I've added so far are either diverse (Youtube News is a great example: it contains both CNN and Fox News YouTube feeds) or are generally considered neutral (AP News and Reuters).

When it comes to UFOs and religion I'd have no problem adding them, but would absolutely break those out into their own communities. If someone is super interested in UFOs then they are welcome to subscribe to the UFO community with like minded people. Ultimately I'm trying to keep the number of feeds per community fairly low and make sure they are on-topic.

All that said I think it's up to the community to upvote/downvote as they wish. That is really the power of link aggregators like Lemmy and Reddit. Crap gets downvoted into oblivion and the spicy nugs float to the top. Link aggregators do come with their own drawbacks (echo chambers and trolls to name two), but they are very powerful once you've found the right communities.

Thank you for the well wishes! Sorry it's not right for you, but I really appreciate the feedback to make sure I'm executing this properly.

I was able to get them all subscribed on my Beehaw account. You'd want to search for !yt_explainers@lemmy.link to find the community.

Since the posts are to my Lemmy.link server, all of the posts and comments will be on my server. The mod work will be on me to maintain.

You know what they say about great minds!

[–] Notorious@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I initially went with Reuters, but their feed is a bunch of patting themselves on the back for breaking news. Maybe they have different feeds I can find. Did not think of AP, but I'll get that one added because I agree that both are better (more neutral, fact based) sources.

[–] Notorious@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (3 children)

That's definitely not the goal. My vision of this project was to simply combine Lemmy + RSS. You get the benefit of news stream from RSS with the community upvotes/downvotes and comments of Lemmy. I had initially tried to set up TT-RSS and Newsblur, but both of them were difficult to set up and this felt like a better solution. I'm also extremely open to adding communities and feeds as requested.. absolutely not trying to curate news for people.

 

Hey Fediverse,

We've been working on something cool and wanted to share it with you. It's a new project called Lemmy.link, and it's all about making RSS feeds more accessible and useful on Lemmy.

We've noticed there's been a lot of talk in various communities about people shifting back to traditional RSS aggregators like Feedly, TT-RSS, and Newsblur. It got us thinking: why not bring those RSS feeds directly to Lemmy instead?

That's how Lemmy.link came to life. Right now, we have 10 communities collecting from over 30 RSS feeds, covering topics from World News and Technology to Business, plus some popular YouTube communities like News, Technology, and Explainers.

But we're just getting started, and this is where you come in. We'd love your ideas for new communities or RSS feeds to include. There's just one thing - to keep things running smoothly, we're focusing on shared interests and staying away from personal communities with custom feeds.

Also, please note, for now, lemmy.link is closed for signups. You'll need to subscribe from your current Lemmy instance. Once we've incorporated the upcoming 0.18.1 captcha update, we'll take a fresh look at this.

So, take a tour of Lemmy.link and let us know what you think. We believe there's huge potential for this project in the Fediverse and your input is a big part of that. Please provide any feedback on !meta@lemmy.link

Thanks for reading, and we hope you enjoy what we've built so far with Lemmy.link.

Are there any Discord servers or somewhere in the Matrix to chat about hosting a Lemmy instance? I've got Lemmy running, but I think there are several of us in the same boat struggling with federation performance issues and it might be good to have some place to chat real time.

 

So I have two raspberry pi 4s on my network. Both are running Raspberry Pi OS Lite. One runs octopi for my Neptune 3 printer and the other runs Mainsail for my Voron 2.4.

I’ve had an issue twice recently where both of my Pi’s drop off my network simultaneously. Nothing else becomes disconnected, but nothing is able to access the Pis.

This happened once before a couple weeks ago and I simply reformatted the SD cards and everything worked again. Since this seems to be an issue I don’t want to keep reformatting.

My Wi-Fi network is UniFi with 3 APs. Has anyone heard of anything like this?
