gkak.laₛ@lemmy.zipto Games@lemmy.world•My Humble Indie Game Is On Sale If You Want ItEnglish4·2 months agoLooks cool! Any plans to publish on GOG or other similar platform? 😁 (DRM-free, StopKillingGames, etc)
gkak.laₛ@lemmy.zipto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Reminder: Proton Mail addresses have vendor lock-inEnglish61·2 months agoReminder of this:
https://poolp.org/posts/2019-08-30/you-should-not-run-your-mail-server-because-mail-is-hard/
And that mailu.io (and other similar projects) makes self-hosting email almost trivial 😁 (at least for people that can run a pre-configured
docker-compose.yml
and buy their domain etc)
Not an alias, but expanding
-h
to--help
has been very useful in cases where the program just prints “see --help for options” when you just use-h
I use
glola
from oh-my-zsh every day to see an overview of my projectsAns
ns
/nss
is very convenient to run one-off commands with software I don’t already have installed!Oh and
cdt = cd $(mktemp -d)
is nice to have when you just need a temporary clean directory to do something quick
gkak.laₛ@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why are you here and not on Reddit?English4·2 months agoEach server has its own users and communities (but they still all talk and subscribe to each other!)
Usually I see usernames written in the form
@user@lemmy.zip
, while communities!InterestingSubject@lemmy.zip
gkak.laₛ@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why are you here and not on Reddit?English4·2 months agoWelcome to the platform!
- You signed up for the lemmy.zip server (=“lemmy instance”), but you can see posts, post comments, and talk to users from any other server. Just like you can send email from your personal email to your work email, it’s still just email! Other than the fact that usernames have a i.e. “@lemmy.zip” part, you shouldn’t really need to think about it 😅 (But when you want to login to your account, you can’t login to another server, you need to login on lemmy.zip)
- No need to learn much more to get started, you just participate in any discussions you want etc 😊
- You can find some communities to subscribe to at https://sub.rehab/ and https://lemmyverse.net/communities . To subscribe to a community, you can search for the community’s full name on your server, lemmy.zip
- Here you can find a mobile app to download: https://join-lemmy.org/apps/ . You can download whichever you want! You can just try them and pick the one you like the most, and you can have a couple of them at the same time and they still access the same content
- Lemmy.zip also has a list in the sidebar, “Useful links”, these four are just alternative websites you can use to access the same thing; again you can just pick whichever you like the most!
Yes, it’s pretty good! I’m a DevOps engineer, and have experience with Ansible, Docker, etc, but I just couldn’t find time to deploy services the best way that I wanted™ for my personal server
So, even though it e.g. doesn’t even use Docker, yunohost really helped me start using the many services I wanted/needed, which otherwise might take e.g. a few hours to a couple of days for each of them to research and configure
So I have one “production” yunohost server, one “testing” yunohost server to test services that I don’t know if I’ll use yet (and I wouldn’t want them to interfere with production e.g. by using too many resources)
and one server without yunohost for mailu, Docker, traefik, etc, which I can use to deploy services the correct way™ as I figure out the services that I really use and find the time to migrate them one-by-one
Even when using yunohost, there are so many things to do after deploying a service (e.g. DNS, configure the server and client software), so it has been really useful to save time when deploying and configuring.
I think it gets you ~80% there, makes self-hosting accessible to everyone, and helps democratize the Internet a bit 💚 It’s more important to have many people setting up e.g. Immich or Nextcloud for their family photos, than only a few Linux people being able to learn how to do it perfectly (Docker/kubernetes high availability, reverse proxies, etc) and have everyone else to need to resort to using centralized services
