I hadn’t heard of a few of these and they sound really enjoyable. Thanks for sharing!

I really felt cheated that no one was insulted, no rants were frothed, no theories conspiracied in this nfo. All we got was relevant information and kindness.

I’m kidding obvs

Nice find, it winds.

I am running it in a VM now, using Linux and Docker.

Thanks for sharing this!

The Lemmy Easy Deploy script available at GitHub supports Arm64 in theory. In practice, some required binary refused to run on my Pi 4 so I think it’s still a WIP.

This is correct.

I’ve got the DS923+. It’s replacing a very old but very functional QNAP that I’ve had for years. Alas, QTS or whatever the OS is called is slow and clunky and after using our DS920+ at work I made the decision to get a Synology.

Thanks boss, I’ll check that out. Appreciate you sharing.

Funny that you say that: my first problem was of my own making - I was using arm64 hardware and Lemmy doesn’t quite support that architecture yet, so I ended up getting a Synology myself this week. It’s awaiting disks and then I plan on moving Lemmy to that box.

Thanks for sharing that site - I’ll make good use of it once the drives get here.

The instructions worked out, but the troubleshooting steps need to be fleshed out more. Again, probably my issues, like DNS. I learned a lot though.

.fan.

But seriously…

After spending all week installing Lemmy and trying to make it happy, I was losing my mind. I’ve finally got everything but pics working. I plan on troubleshooting it this weekend.

I’m being sarcastic, kind of. I wasn’t sure if I was going to stay a Lemmy fan amidst the painful set up - even with Docker compose and following all of the instructions, I was struggling to self-host it.

I am still a Lemmy fan and I understand that I should do less complaining and more contributing, so I am going to write up my experience getting it running once I get the pictrs stuff working. I love the federation and want to help it thrive.
