Hmm, was able to view it on mine after putting the URL (https://kbin.social/m/linux) into my instance's search bar. But it doesn't seem to show any posts. Normally upon discovering a community lemmy should bring in the top 20 posts.

https://lemmy.rogers-net.com/c/linux@kbin.social

Copy the URL and paste it into the search bar of your instance. That will force your instance to "Discover" it. It might say no results but go back to the community page then search the name again

What was stopping people on reddit? You could make /r/Tech, /r/Technology, /r/TechNews, etc

It's a bit muddy right now but a clear winner for each topic will win out and become "the" place for that topic. Give it time, let people figure things out.

Heh. Username is default but isn't the password defined in the docker file? That's not default.

Yeah, I do that on my home server but my VPS had passwordless sudo by default so I was too lazy to do this.

Pretty much!

I can confidently say both, as I've started my own instance of lemmy and have allowed a small amount of users to join.

It's for kbin. I don't think it would work for lemmy.

Yeah the only reason I still go to Reddit is to watch the chaos. Great entertainment

I still think the admin team will forcefully takeover and reopen the big subs, but I think that'll be like pouring gasoline on that dumpster fire.

Man it would really suck if we ever lost the backlog of YouTube videos
