  • I don’t know about this one specifically 😅 but people probably have the need for these debates anyway, so it’s just better to express them (on the Fediveree)! 😁

    It’s like, how in some movies and shows people have “meaningless” discussions in a bar about random trivia etc; if people don’t behave in a toxic way, it’s just a way to connect and share ideas!

    And in some (most?) cases, the discussion might be more important than the result of it, since you see in practice more about how people can approach this type of curiosity about a subject, which might apply to many other topics we think about every day 😁

    More importantly though, where am I supposed to go to debate if water is wet, if not to the Fediverse? 😄






  • For people who have difficulty reading this (small screens, larger screens, screen readers, etc)

    Hi @everyone!

    Time for a pretty big update! Behind the scenes, we’ve been quietly cooking up something exciting, and we’re finally ready to share it: the Jellyseerr and Overseerr teams are merging into one team called Seerr! This has been in the works for quite some time, and we couldn’t be happier to officially join forces.

    What does that mean for you? A single unified codebase where all the latest Jellyseerr features will make their way in, plus the combined effort means we can move faster on new features and keep things more up to date.

    We’re sharing this news a little early because we need beta testers before our first release. If you’d like to help shape the future of this project (and move us towards a quicker first release), now’s your chance!

    To test, you can switch from our official image to fallenbagel/jellyseerr:preview-seerr

    We do not recommend using this on a production instance, but if you do, please back up your data before switching. For any questions or feedback, please post in our ⁠#seerr-beta channel!

  • TIL; for people like me who just found out:

    https://gamevau.lt/blog/2023/07/13

    For a self-hosted app like GameVault, we believe it’s crucual to disclose the source code. We want you, our users, to have full transparency and control [?] over the software you use on your servers.

    our desire to protect our code from unauthorized use and commercial exploitation. While we absolutely encourage you to copy, modify, and share our code for personal use […] we want to prevent others from profiting off our hard work by selling our software without our consent.

    As a small business with just two members, we strive to provide you with a valuable product but cannot continue to do so as volunteers indefinitely.

    (I’m a AGPL kind of guy, but) btw at least there are licenses specifically for software:

    https://www.mongodb.com/licensing/server-side-public-license

    https://opensource.stackexchange.com/questions/12070/allowed-uses-of-a-software-licensed-under-cc-by-nc-license

    Copyright and the CC-BY-NC license do not regulate mere use, such as executing a program.

    Ok proprably we’re at least allowed to run it (That’s not a given, e.g. iirc if someone publishes their code on github without a license, it doesn’t mean that people can fully and legally use it, except for what some Github ToS clause defines that you agreed to)

    I was interested in checking it out for personal use; anyone has any experience with alternatives? (I can look them up, I’m just curious about peoples’ recommendations)







  • Welcome to the platform!

    • You signed up for the lemmy.zip server (=“lemmy instance”), but you can see posts, post comments, and talk to users from any other server. Just like you can send email from your personal email to your work email, it’s still just email! Other than the fact that usernames have a i.e. “@lemmy.zip” part, you shouldn’t really need to think about it 😅 (But when you want to login to your account, you can’t login to another server, you need to login on lemmy.zip)
    • No need to learn much more to get started, you just participate in any discussions you want etc 😊
    • You can find some communities to subscribe to at https://sub.rehab/ and https://lemmyverse.net/communities . To subscribe to a community, you can search for the community’s full name on your server, lemmy.zip
    • Here you can find a mobile app to download: https://join-lemmy.org/apps/ . You can download whichever you want! You can just try them and pick the one you like the most, and you can have a couple of them at the same time and they still access the same content
    • Lemmy.zip also has a list in the sidebar, “Useful links”, these four are just alternative websites you can use to access the same thing; again you can just pick whichever you like the most!

  • gkak.laₛ@lemmy.ziptoSelfhosted@lemmy.worldHas anyone tested yunohost?

    Yes, it’s pretty good! I’m a DevOps engineer, and have experience with Ansible, Docker, etc, but I just couldn’t find time to deploy services the best way that I wanted™ for my personal server

    So, even though it e.g. doesn’t even use Docker, yunohost really helped me start using the many services I wanted/needed, which otherwise might take e.g. a few hours to a couple of days for each of them to research and configure

    So I have one “production” yunohost server, one “testing” yunohost server to test services that I don’t know if I’ll use yet (and I wouldn’t want them to interfere with production e.g. by using too many resources)

    and one server without yunohost for mailu, Docker, traefik, etc, which I can use to deploy services the correct way™ as I figure out the services that I really use and find the time to migrate them one-by-one

    Even when using yunohost, there are so many things to do after deploying a service (e.g. DNS, configure the server and client software), so it has been really useful to save time when deploying and configuring.

    I think it gets you ~80% there, makes self-hosting accessible to everyone, and helps democratize the Internet a bit 💚 It’s more important to have many people setting up e.g. Immich or Nextcloud for their family photos, than only a few Linux people being able to learn how to do it perfectly (Docker/kubernetes high availability, reverse proxies, etc) and have everyone else to need to resort to using centralized services





  • I don’t have any specific feeds, and of course it depends on your interests, but I just wanted to recommend to keep an eye out for feeds during your everyday browsing

    When I see an interesting link on Lemmy to a news article or a blog, I just look at a couple of more articles on that site, and if it seems interesting I subscribe to it! 😅😉 (I can always unsubscribe later if it turns out that I don’t like it). I started using RSS a few days ago, and I’ve collected quite a few blogs and news sites this way

    (Btw also keep in mind, that some news sites provide feeds for specific tags, you don’t have to subscribe to everything that gets posted)
