Selfhosted@lemmy.world•XPipe - A connection hub for all your servers: Status update for the v16 releaseEnglish
1·7 months agoAfter trying it for a while, I’ve now bought a license. Really cool app.
I only have an issue with scaling, but I created an issue in Github for that.Edit: nvm, I just failed in finding the right setting :-)

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•XPipe - A connection hub for all your servers: Status update for the v16 releaseEnglish
2·7 months agoThis looks very nice. A question, we use Teleport, and it does discover all hosts. But when connecting, I need to configure the username for every host separately. Can’t I set a default somewhere?

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•New server for the family, Proxmox or TrueNAS, LXC or Docker?English
91·8 months agoI stopped self-hosting stuff that’s for the family. In case something happens to me, no way my wife is going to keep this stuff running. And the kids are too young. So they would lose everything.
Family stuff goes in managed solutions (like Proton). Personal and public stuff is selfhosted.
Just something to consider.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•The admin of the third largest Mastodon instance (16k monthly active users) is asking for help to pay rentEnglish
0·10 months agoWe have done before, but don’t do that often, so we don’t bother users too much. But we might do again soon, and maybe do a monthly post on the mastodons/sharkeys etc

0·10 months agoSending e-mail to info at lemmy dot world would be the best option. The team will pick that up.
(By the way: 2 EUR per year would be enough if every active user would donate that but they don’t)

Fediverse@lemmy.world•The admin of the third largest Mastodon instance (16k monthly active users) is asking for help to pay rentEnglish
0·10 months agoFor lemmy.world / mastodon.world including some of the smaller instances we host, it’s like 0,06 euro per active user per month. If every active user would pay 2 Euro per year that would be enough to cover hosting costs. If every active user would pay 1 euro per month, I could quit my dayjob and focus on the Fediverse fulltime.
(Sidenote: Stux and I created the non-profit Fedihosting Foundation which owns lemmy.world … but finances are still separate for his and my instances)

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Every Country That Has Their Own Lemmy InstanceEnglish
0·11 months agoThe server is in Finland, actually. I am in The Netherlands, so is the non-profit foundation owning LW.
I’ll try to install the BookFace UI on friendica.world. Also I’ve started a Friendica manual at https://help.friendica.onl/ but it needs to get content.
This is for the Lemmy.World server (just the physical box, not the related VMs). Around 12TB last month.

Apple@lemmy.world•The best Lemmy app so far is "Wefwef" hands down. If you loved Apollo you'd love this.
0·3 years agohi! lemmyworld admin here.
If I did it right, wefwef.app should no longer be rate-limited. Please let me know if it worked.
Nice list. I prefer calckey over misskey. (I run calckey.world)

Lemmy Moderators@lemmy.world•Lemmy.World Community Moderation Guidelines
0·3 years agoAny mod can assign a new mod. The first mod / owner of the community can’t be un-modded. There aren’t many more tools yet. I sure hope there will be some added soon, moderating is very hard atm…
Added a banner as test, but need an official banner for Lemmy.world. (@vsp@mastodon.world ? :-) )
You can create an account, if you like.


Codeberg runs on Forgejo, which you can selfhost. (If you wanna try, let me know, I can create an account for you on https://forgejo.world/). It has (or will have) activitypub (federation).
Friendica is nice, I’d say try it (https://friendica.world/), but host it yourself if you like it. Personally I use Sharkey (https://sharkey.world/) which you can use like Mastodon, but with longer posts, and you can create pages (like this one https://ruud.social/@ruud/pages/postgresql ).
