I am glad to see more people selfhosting their own. Makes me feel less out. Had the same issues.

I have so far been able to access and post on everyone else’s instance from my own. I do struggle with searching but I’ve considered that to be due to the large amount of people. Example was when beehaw crashed the other day.

So far, it’s been simple enough.

A very valid question I am also interested in knowing. I’m wondering how much management it will be for me - who created his own instance and am having to find all the other communities myself. Or if my instance is doing anything but providing me a unique instance address and name.

Proxmox at home xD

I think it’s more people tired of the pollution that took place, and trying to preserve the clean and friendly one we have so far.

I do personally agree with saving old ones, but I’d highlight them as legacy and then make only the admin be able to edit/create content there, with links to the new one still as suggested before.

Don’t burn books, but let’s not study incorporate the worst things and make them normal here. I think is the feeling.

I support the archiver program myself xD

Worth the read. I do wish as we post these for a summary of what the link is if it were at all possible. The one we got here was very limited and could’ve been a bit more expressive but it was absolutely worth reading!

I agree, which is why I offered no solution as of yet… I suppose best we have right now is resounding opinion of ‘most liked’ in a thread. I suppose that would lean itself to revealing the idea which holds the highest consensus.

In some tech groups, it may become feasible for malicious actors to feign intelligence, and that’s partly what I’m hoping this slowly curtails. Use of LLM and the rest in our discourse.

While I’m immediately tempted to request to be made a mod, I’m going to wait a day or so and see how frequently other new members start posting.

This is my day one, so not ideal for me to make any assertions or claims. I do enjoy the spirit that we have though so far.

I’m going to be honest and say it’s probably a challenge, but with the combination of ChatGPT4, I bet you be just as successful as I was! I was able to get my instance to run behind Nginx Proxy Manager. It took several changes but is functional now.

I would be curious if there might be a way to give some sort of “attribute of credibility” that we could come up with.

and rightly so imo… why waste the time to make hyperlinks of every minor nuance… “increased the ban notes character limit” xD ha!

I was very glad to see the community speak their minds though.

I’m so tired of goodreads emailing me since 2012 xD I should’ve hit unsubscribe years ago…

I absolutely loved reading wholesome content like this. That’s a great idea! We should collectively work together to shape how we want our future year to be!

I wonder if we could petition Lemmy.ml to make the adjustment? I’m not positive how the mod roles function just yet.

It cost me nothing really to add the instance but I’ve yet to add a bunch of people talking and communicating - thus filling my drives… In the past I used the Matrix protocol and while it’s entirely different I think for a moderate community we should be able to last a good year on a TB if we has some reasonable limitations on size.

Right now I’m just using the web interface on mobile - selfhosted though so I got to change the theme to dark.

I concur and am actively researching this issue as well. I, for example created my own instance but am not entirely sure I should be the one to host yet another Selfhosted community. I am hoping for a dominate 2/3 of them to win out, preferably lemmy.ml as it was the first I discovered. Alas, you asked a very pertinent question that I think you should keep searching to find. I did see the owner on Lemmy.world actually responding to his thread…

We should absolutely instill the desire to keep this community alive though.

I will be happy to share and keep people up to date with my projects over on my Lemmy Instance among other places. Please feel free to write anytime!

Stay strong!

Absolutely right!
