This just reminds me of the days of Instant Messengers on PC when you had to use a third-party one to connect to all your accounts in one app. I don’t really know how I feel about it right now…
A nerd that likes lurking and self-hosting. 🤓

I’ll probably try to replace our current DLNA server with Jellyfin, but I’m still unsure if we want or need Sonarr and Radarr.
Hahaha! That would definitely be me if I worked as a sysadmin or something.
You can use the FQDN of your Lemmy instance in the nginx.conf
file. I’ve uploaded my files to a gist here as an example.
You should be able just to replace any mention of lemmy.mydomain.com
with your FQDN of your Lemmy instance and replace any your-postgres-password
with your real Postgres password. You must also set your SMTP provider settings in the email
section of config.hjson
(I use Brevo). In the docker-compose.yml
file, you can change which port you want to map from the host; I used 8976
in mine. Then just point your internet-facing reverse proxy to the host and whichever port you chose.
I’m not using Ansible to automate it at all. I’m just updating the files manually, as needed, and doing docker compose
commands. I’m using Docker volumes to persist the data on them, so feel free to change any of those basic things you want.
Think of the NGINX proxy in Lemmy’s docker-compose.yml
file as the entry point to Lemmy from outside the Docker network. For instance, I don’t have any ports mapped for the individual services except for the NGINX service. The NGINX proxy in this docker-compose file will access the other services through the internal docker network, so it isn’t a problem if you set up your nginx.conf
file with the service’s names. With that done, you could map any port you want for the NGINX service from the host, then point your internet-facing reverse proxy to that.
I also plan on setting up a Mastodon server, but I haven’t gotten to it yet. So I don’t have anything specific to add other than it will work similarly by using docker’s port mapping or service names depending on whether each service needs to be internet-facing or only communicate internally.
Oh, so it was the same type of uniform the emergency workers wore. That is pretty cool, but as the article says, you risk coming off the wrong way. At least it seemed to work in this case. 👍
Nice! I have seen posts suggesting people contact their local emergency services and inform them that their Twitter posts are no longer publicly accessible. Then convince them to switch to something like Mastodon instead! Win-win.
I didn’t watch the video yet, but I already know that you need to make this for me!
No, no you should not. I haven’t used homepage but you probably just need to attach the services to the same network or just map the ports on the host and just use the host IP.
You’re right, but as you said, the reason I reacted this way is because of the way you posted it. I’m also taking out some frustration about everyone and their mother having some “great feature” or idea they want to suggest even if they haven’t thought it through. For that, I apologize.
Maybe it could be done, but I’m quite sure that doing it correctly wouldn’t be as simple as you think. I won’t pretend to know how all of the software works, but I think it’s safe to assume there are a lot of technical things to consider, especially when federating (and other fediverse software) comes into play. Realistically, I would see this as a waste of effort and a very low priority.
That is exactly what I thought of when I read this. Why would Lemmy implement such a seemingly obvious bad feature and become 4chan?
Also, the claim that this would prevent bot accounts is way off. Bot accounts still need an instance to register on anyways. The thing is, anyone can spin up an instance at any time All this “feature” would do is let them hide…
Great post to demonstrate how some ideas might sound good to you, but are actually just bad, lol.
Nice! I updated my instance already. Thank you to all contributors! 🥳
There could be any number of reasons. For one, you can avoid power-tripping mods that ban people they disagree with just because they can. Even though they chose the same name, different communities might have different purposes or rules. Just find the ones you like and subscribe without worrying too much. Everything is federated so it doesn’t matter.
Lulz. You filthy common mod. I’m a super awesome admin and I will shatter your world. 😎
It also helps that we have a couch and TV in the basement where there is significantly less noise. 🔇
I only understand some of the things being said because I am not familiar with these things… But that’s just me! 😅
Not bad, though.
I dual boot Linux on my gaming PC and remember having issues with games installed onto an NTFS partition. I don’t remember if it was an issue with some specific software, such as Wine/Proton or Steam, just a general Linux issue (maybe symlinks?), or if I was trying to do something weird… Either way, I ended up needing to create a separate partition with a Linux filesystem for the games.
Last I checked, there isn’t any easy way to get Linux filesystem drivers on Windows, and even then, I don’t know if it would run games from there. So, if nothing else, you might end up needing storage space dedicated to installing games only for Linux.
