This looks very nice. A question, we use Teleport, and it does discover all hosts. But when connecting, I need to configure the username for every host separately. Can’t I set a default somewhere?

I don’t see another option than volunteer-run instances or professionally run instances. And for professionally run instances you need funds (so paid subscriptions) and for volunteer-run instances you need volunteers…

In my experience, as long as there are enough active users, you’ll find enough volunteers.

I stopped self-hosting stuff that’s for the family. In case something happens to me, no way my wife is going to keep this stuff running. And the kids are too young. So they would lose everything.

Family stuff goes in managed solutions (like Proton). Personal and public stuff is selfhosted.

Just something to consider.

You should be able to cancel and/or change it:

We have done before, but don’t do that often, so we don’t bother users too much. But we might do again soon, and maybe do a monthly post on the mastodons/sharkeys etc

Sending e-mail to info at lemmy dot world would be the best option. The team will pick that up.

(By the way: 2 EUR per year would be enough if every active user would donate that but they don’t)

For lemmy.world / mastodon.world including some of the smaller instances we host, it’s like 0,06 euro per active user per month. If every active user would pay 2 Euro per year that would be enough to cover hosting costs. If every active user would pay 1 euro per month, I could quit my dayjob and focus on the Fediverse fulltime.

(Sidenote: Stux and I created the non-profit Fedihosting Foundation which owns lemmy.world … but finances are still separate for his and my instances)

Nice

Test

The server is in Finland, actually. I am in The Netherlands, so is the non-profit foundation owning LW.

For me the faster VACUUM would be reason enough to migrate :-) But I think overall it’s best to keep up-to-date and a few minutes downtime is worth it.

I’ll try to install the BookFace UI on friendica.world. Also I’ve started a Friendica manual at https://help.friendica.onl but it needs to get content.

How so?

This is for the Lemmy.World server (just the physical box, not the related VMs). Around 12TB last month.

Thanks, I sent them an e-mail.

We run the database and backend on a ax161 on Hetzner. The media is in Wasabi. The alt uis run on a cloud vps.

I have setup bskysocial.world to test that (there’s no web interface, just select this domain when logging in or signing up via the app or https://bsky.app)

Note: This is for testing only, I can’t promise it will remain running.

(I am @ruud.bskysocial.world)

It’s a feature of the app, where it doesn’t load all messages at once. Whenever you’ve read all it has loaded, you’ll see this message, and when clicking it it will load more posts.

I think the links and usernames are now OK.
