I’m in this picture and it’s making me feel uncomfortable
And this is why I love my admin(s) be they human or ai i have no idea how or why but thank you for doing it.
i feel like i am showing up to a garden party in a nice pair of slacks, blazer, and shoes and everyone else is in a mecha
LMAO. So, so true and I have no problem with it. Self-hosted seems to be one of the most active communities on Lemmy. I learn a lot and y’all all seem cool.
I've been self-hosting Mastodon for a while and mostly using it to share bird photography, but also to provide comments on a static site. Since Mastodon and Lemmy both speak ActivityPub, those get crossposted to /c/flashlight so Lemmy comments are also included on my site. Federation is cool.
I don't follow many accounts that post Fediverse meta stuff on Mastodon. While I have some interest in the best examples of that content, the only way to attract a broader community is to promote accounts and content appealing to the interests of that broader audience.
Image Transcription:
A one-panel XKCD-style comic with the title "The Self-Hoster" One character is seated at a computer, talking to a second character standing behind their chair. Character one says: "It took all weekend, but now that I have a Mastodon instance running in Docker behind a reverse proxy with cloud-provided media storage, I can enjoy interacting with a federated network of other users without compromising on privacy or content moderation." Character two replies: "Cool, what kinds of topics does your network discuss?" Character one replies: "Our experiences self-hosting Mastodon instances, mostly."

Meh, it's a hobby. Lots of people talk about their hobbies.
Still a funny comic, though.
I was on Lemmy for a month before I realized this was a community about hosting servers, and not the Lemmy equivalent of a self.post from Reddit. 🤦♂️
Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I've seen in this thread:
Fewer Letters More Letters IP Internet Protocol NAT Network Address Translation VPN Virtual Private Network VPS Virtual Private Server (opposed to shared hosting)
4 acronyms in this thread; the most compressed thread commented on today has 4 acronyms.

I hate googling things and just being lead back to reddit... Where my account was permabanned for "Report Abuse", something literally not even discussed in their TOS
And they're not every clear on if I'm allowed to use an alternate account, they just said "If you go onto another account and continue this misbehavior it'll be banned", which sounds like I'm allowed to use an alt, but..... only if it plays by the rules, but else where I'm seeing that "Ban Evasion" is against the rules, so which is it Jim Jam?
Now I have to self host mastodon to join the party 🥳
I don't host a Mastodon but I can feel this.
Accurate. We care about privacy and quality. A rare breed.
Hmm... Maybe i should write a Post about my Problems with the home Assistant App ^^
But Unfortunatally i mostly think "the official forum might be a better Place?"
So true
Shit I'm about to turn my old computer into a server. And tbh I don't need it but I gots to use it for something.
