I used proxmox and have played a little with nix and guix, but simplest is just use debian, put /home on a separate logical partition from the system partition so you can reinstall the system without clobbering user files, and as people keep saying, backup early and often.
Simplest is use /etc/hosts to set up names, if there are just a few.
Sort by newest first.
There is already a subscribed tab, and I use it most of the time when I want to catch up on selected topics. I use the local or all feed when I want to browse a wider view of what’s going on in general. Right now the total amount of Lemmy traffic is small enough that browsing that way is tolerable, which it wouldn’t be e.g. on reddit.
I do think that the Lemmy software design is more meme-oriented than I’d prefer, because of stuff like the thumbnail pic with every post in the main feeds. The more interesting parts of reddit to me were text-only and we don’t have that here.
I’d like the feed to be adjusted so that if there are a bunch of posts from the same community not too far apart from each other chronologically, to group them all together. Alternatively, a way to block communities showing in your front page view without blocking them completely. It’s not just memes, there are a bunch of other topics that also clutter up the front page constantly. Even things like news reports in Dutch, which are perfectly legit except I can’t read them, would be less annoying with this type of feature.
Wait you mean you don’t cook the oats? Oats (the old fashioned 30 minute kind) cook nicely for me in 4 minutes in an instant pot, but no cooking sounds even better.
Well what phone is it? There are tons of music playing programs on f-droid. Why not just run one? I’ve been using Vanilla Music. I don’t like it that much, but don’t feel like derping around trying more and more of them. Vanilla is better than some others that I tried.
If you can manage programmers, then yes. Everyone says that’s just like herding cats.
Large ones can be a pain and I’ve generally converted those to other formats even it’s at some cost in disk space.
Propeller beanies as formal and business attire.
I do, see https://www.covidisairborne.org/ for tons of info on why we all should.
I only read a few paragraphs so you are more persistent than me. I wonder if it is AI generated.
“Thus we join television in leading people to kill thoughtlessly.”. --Emacs manual, in earlier days.
Lemmy is more picture oriented, like Instagram sort of. Reddit at least I’d you used old and shut off custom css, was more textual. -1 for Lemmy there I’m afraid.
There’s tons of memes and stuff, but I was never into that, so meh. My thing was specialized nerd groups and they are mostly not here yet. With time, maybe they will come.
In America we use BBQ English.
Find some interesting blogs and subscribe to those. The ones that don’t try to churn out content every day are the best. They only post when they have something interesting.
You weren’t around for Usenet. It was great, then social media took over.
Yeah true. Newbies don’t get hired at Google ;).
