Thanks. It was due to me using a wrong port. Its working now.
Sorry for the inconvinience
Hello again,
thanks to your great feedback last time, I set up SSL with letsencrypt and got HTTPS working.
However, federation is still not working.
When troubleshooting as described in the docs I get the following Bad-Gateway error:
"~# curl -H "Accept: application/activity+json" https://<domain>/u/blueberry <html> <head><title>502 Bad Gateway</title></head> <body> <center><h1>502 Bad Gateway</h1></center> <hr><center>nginx</center> </body> </html>"
So apparently, its again the reverse-proxy, but this time, its not able to speak to the backend.
My nginx-error-file shows the following error: "2024/02/08 12:37:46 [error]: connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: <domain-ip>, server: <domain>, request: "GET /u/blueberry HTTP/2.0", upstream: "http://0.0.0.0:8536/u/blueberry", host: <domain>"
But using "docker ps" I find port 8536 open, so it should work.
Do you have any idea whats the problem here?
Yes, also occures without the header. But I think I know the problem now: I tried to use the certificate of my host provider, which seems not to work for federation
Ok, yeah, I'm using a certiciate of my domain provider. Maybe that's the problem ... thanks! I will try to do it with letsencrypt/acme
I hope this is the right place for this.
So, here is the thing: my lemmy instance is accessible in the browser via its domain, everything is fine, but no other communities are shown. When I test federation with "curl -H "Accept: application/activity+json" https://my-instance.com/u/some-local-user" I get a SSL certificate error.
So I figured that it has something to do with my reverse proxy and modified the nginx.conf like described in the documentation.
But the error persists.
This is my nginx.config in /etc/nginx/sites-enables/<my-domain>:
" limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone={{ my_domain }}_ratelimit:10m rate=1r/s;

Maybe, someone has an idea how to solve this. I'm really at the end of my wits here :(

> TL;DR: The current Mastodon-signup is only removing the confusion of users on first glance, because it either hides the server-choice altogether, or leaves them with a choice that is impossible to make at this point of their Mastodon-journey. Instead, it should introduce them to decentrality on a lower scale, with a handful of handpicked servers to choose from, such that the decision makes sense to them and shows them the merits and fun of the concept instead of scaring them away. Ideal would be to give them a sense of agency. Then, chances are higher that they consider migrating again in the future and eventually internalize it as a permanent option of the digital world.

You are right, it could be read that way from the title. But from the content it becomes pretty clear that the section of the universe called the "Open Web" was deserted in this world decades ago and no one is there.
Thanks. So nice to hear some feedback <3
You are right about the story. I crafted the whole thing a bit more hasty than the last ones. It should be longer and have an actual story and maybe some new characters. I also need to improve my writing. I tried a more playful style for this one, because its adventerous and so on, but its too inconsistent.
I'm thinking about extending and re-writing it, but am not sure if I will find the time. Thanks anyways :)
Ok, I see. To be honest, I didn't put as much thought in this than in the last stories. Maybe it would have worked if it was longer ... I will think about it! Thanks anyway for the feedback.
And it isn’t very Solarpunkish 😉
the use of “open web” etc makes it too up front as well
That's true. But otherwise, I don't think the idea would have come across
Well yes, but Solarpunk also supported dezentrality 😇
the use of “open web” etc makes it too up front as well
Its meant in the sense: better build communities in the fediverse rather than on Mars. Its a pun on "Colonize Mars"

Yeah its kind of amazing :) (Although I think the story also is kind of universal)
PS: The similarity was noted before, check this out: https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/this-crazy-japanese-film-just-blew-away-twitters-tweet-record/
"Twitter revealed a new tweet-per-second record on Friday and it seems the 143,199 tweets-per-second milestone was triggered by the airing of a Japanese animated film. [...] In the film, the protagonists send the city's airborne fortress tumbling out of the sky with the magic word, "balus" which roughly translates to "destruction." [...] So strong is the pull of "Laputa" -- even apart from the Ghibli Rule--that during the last airing on Dec. 9, 2011, Twitter logged a then-record-breaking 25,088 tweets per second of fans posting "balus'' at the same time it was spoken during the movie--despite a public plea from the social-networking site to hold off."
- Donna Tam, CNET 16/08/2013
I think Twitter always in a way tried to be the castle in the sky. Also, I think people just found it fun to mess with it.
Ok, you're starting to convince me. I still think some of his works are great solar punk even though maybe he didn't intented them to be ...
never watched it sry
Once upon a time there was a man called Muska … ever since he had been bullied at school, he had dreamed of flying to the moon … and so he took over the legendary castle in the sky, the flying isla…
Ok, that's a little let-down. Although I don't think its that he is completely against tech, maybe his views changed over time since many of his movies feature technical advantages and not always in a bad way, for example the moving castle ...
That would still have been an interesting way to explore these questions. Royalty does not exist in a vacuum, it is a product of many principles that Sheeta and Pazy would not be fan of (not even Muska I bet).
That's true. Could certainly be interesting, I mean, they build the whole thing and probably spend a few generations there.
But thing is, Miyazaki is very anti-tech. He did not want Laputa to be a dream followed by solarpunk, it was supposed to be a cautionary tale about the fall of technological societies. It prefered to focus on the destructive powers rather than on the post-labor utopias that the Laputa robots could have brought.
I would call his relationship with tech ambivalent, because the tech of Laputa is primarily positive and exists in harmony with nature. It just falls into the wrong hands.
Interesting. Although I think at some point there will always be a Muska. Exclusivity and aristocracy doesn't usually led to good things ...

She pushed herself away from the window and while holding her ears, rushed down the staircase to severe the connection to the Meta Myzel – or was it already too late?

Ja stimmt, Novelle trifft es eher. Die einzelnen Teile sind aber einigermaßen abgeschlossen. Man kann es also in Häppchen lesen.
Hab noch nicht für mehr als den Anfang Zeit gehabt, der klingt interessant.
Danke :)

Würdet ihr diese Geschichte jemandem geben, der noch nichts vom Fediverse versteht? Bin gespannt auf eure Meinungen :)
Which podcast would you recommend for beginners?
I used to hunt mushrooms with my grandparents as a kid. Got some good memories there. I'm also watched one or the other fungi docu on Netflix. Fascinating stuff.
I can dig up some good podcasts. If you search your favorite podcast service for queer mycology you can learn some interesting things about fungi in a couple of hours :)
Ha ha. It's such a niche topic but I'm increasingly fascinated by it. Will definitely check out such a podcast :)
Wow. Mycology what a awesome name! :D
I wrote a short story about the Fediverse, called "Breath Taker" / "Lamella on My Mind", which is set in a Solarpunk world, in which, with the help of mushrooms, the so-called Fungiverse replaces traditional social media. I posted links to the short story in this community. Now I'm thinking how to continue to make this story into something that could support the Fediverse and Solarpunk. What are your thoughts? What would you be more interested in?
