? This post is a month old now

It seems to work, but it keeps throwing pictrs related errors, so it’s not really built for it

It barely works on my old version of lemmy, probably fixed now then. It would be nice if there was a was to turn that off and only use pictrs only for locally uploaded images. Since I’m the only person here caching isn’t too important.
I wonder if I could shut pictrs down and only use an external image hosting for images?

Lemmy sometimes caches remote content in pict-rs. It’s a bit broken so you usually don’t see it, but it does do it occasional

Related, What about a personal instance only I use? I can choose what communities I want but I can’t control what is posted on those communities. Someone could post something illegal to a beehaw community (and have) and the mods remove it, but does the deletion of images and posts federate? In know matrix keeps copies of every deleted file in a room on all homeservers, what about lemmy?

I have a stupid overcomplicated networking script that never works. So every time i set up a new server I need to fix a myriad of weird issues I’ve never seen before. Usually I setup a server with a keyboard and mouse because SSH needs networking, if it’s a cloud machine its the QEMU console or hundreds of reboots.

maybe something selfhosted? there’s no shortage of servers in the community

it’s not official, also the mod here seems to be inactive. but it’s the biggest homelab lemmy I could find on https://browse.feddit.de/
I don’t know where all the people from r/homelab have gone. some other subreddit that have closed have flooded into lemmy but r/homelab doesn’t seem to have done that.

I came because of Reddit shutting down 3rd party apps, but I knew about lemmy before. I like self hosting and have self hosted a matrix server for probably a year now, and when twitter blew up I heard about mastodon and searched for a Reddit version. However, I am lazy as shit so I didn’t bother to set up an instance until a couple days after the reddit news. Honestly it was probably for the best, I probably would have been put of by the tankie stuff. I do feel lucky to have been here before 100 instances though, It was so barren before the influx of Redditors, rarely would a post hit 100 upvotes. It’s incredible how much it has changed in the last few days.

Brilliant, I can see so much more of the main page. one less than old.reddit.com but that doesn’t really matter. Thank you so much!
I know there isn’t anything you can do but one of the things I’ll miss about reddit is the custom CSS. I hope some form of custom CSS gets added to lemmy. I’ll miss the “unique” design of r/mildlyinfuriating or the complete insanity of r/ooer (I tried to link WayBackMachine but it seems to be down)

Good shit, That fixes most of the UI complaints from me. One other think I can think of is making the post a bit smaller to fit more on the screen. Much better than default though.

What the hell, why is it replying outside of it’s community
