I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.
🍁⚕️ 💽
Note: I’m moderating a handful of communities in more of a caretaker role. If you want to take one on, send me a message and I’ll share more info :)
Or “aggressive”
I’m not familiar with these communities, but you can also cross post this to !fedigrow@lemm.ee. That community is good about discussing which community to post in, and maybe organize some collective effort to lock a few of them to redirect efforts to a particular one.
Once you decide on one, it might also help to do the following:
That way people can discover the community over time
Briar comes to mind, although not directly related to self hosting or Linux
You might also find some of these answers helpful. Some of the services mentioned include Meshtastic, Briar, Kiwix
Cool, thanks for sharing it :)
The autofill popup has always been unreliable for me on Android (with Bitwarden)
I use the quick settings tile most of the time instead
This is good feedback, I’ll note them down for the next set of changes
Looks cool, you should definitely build the community the way you want to!
It’s sometimes easier to build up an existing community that already has a number of subscribers but could use more love and attention. Of course you can also cross post to and from that other community if you’d prefer to grow a new one.
In this case, I’m thinking of !learn_programming@programming.dev. If you wanted to, you could reach out and offer to help moderate
I assume that one was a joke, Ventrilo looks very out of date
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventrilo
Revolt is nice though. Once they finish upgrading the app, it would be an easy switch
I didn’t know about Fosscord (now called Spacebar it seems), it looks cool https://github.com/spacebarchat
Spacebar is a free, opensource selfhostable discord-compatible chat, voice and video platform.
- Discord-compatible (Use all your custom clients/bots with minimal changes)
- Selfhostable (Server)
- Open Source (GitHub Organization)
- Configurable (Configure every aspect and limits to your needs)
- Decentralized (no abuse of power and doesn’t have a single point of failure)
- Extendable (secure and cross-platform plugin system)
- Themeable (cross-platform theme system with design editor)
- Secure (publicly audited and hosted FOSS software for transparent foundation in terms of security)
I think it’s a mix of the two. There are legitimate reasons, and commercial reasons
Synology does not manufacture its own hard drives but instead certifies and rebrands drives from Toshiba and Seagate, leaving out only Western Digital among the world’s largest manufacturers.
They’re disabling features
Synology, maker of network-attached storage (NAS) devices, will seemingly remove advanced features from its Plus devices that are not using hard drives provided by, or certified by, Synology itself, starting with its 2025 lineup.
What you might lose from using non-Synology-approved hard drives could include pool creation and support for any issues. De-duplication, lifespan analysis, and automatic HDD firmware updates could also disappear on non-approved drives, Synology’s press release suggests.
What is the 48.4% for Reddit, since it isn’t decentralized at all?
Looks great, feel free to promote on !communitypromo@lemmy.ca as well!
Note that there are two similar sounding products. A friend tried the plant balls and enjoyed them, but then bought the bag of vegetables balls to take home and was disappointed

The format of the post also looked similar to spam posts at first glance. A lot of them are pushing AI things
While this won’t be the case with everyone, it was mentioned a few times in a post I made here a long while back
I’m a woman, and make no attempt to hide that fact in my posts. That said, I also don’t personally have much interest in talking about being a woman, so don’t sub to any of those places you linked.
Over on Reddit I just sort of let people assume I was male a lot of the time, since it wasn’t really relevant to what we were talking about. But from the start on Lemmy I’ve made sure to call out incorrect assumptions, downvote and give a talking to people stereotyping or being misogynistic, etc etc. And the more of us (of all genders) that make that same decision, the better things get
This does happen with comments sometimes. I go into a post and someone has already eloquently said what I would have said (often better than I would have). So I upvote it and move along
I might be missing the joke, but I think this was cancelled:
Now I’m trying to regularly share news that is relevant for both developers and hobbyists. (Studio news, software milestones, talks, interesting columns/posts, etc.) I think I’ve done an okay job, but it’s still pretty low in search results when you search “gamedev Lemmy”, so I’m adding it here in case any of you out there are interested in the field.
That sounds great!
As others have mentioned, you could reach out to the mods on !gamedev@programming.dev and offer to help moderate. Very often the mods will be happy with the extra help. It already has a lot of subscribers, but doesn’t have as much activity. Having you on board might be the perfect blend.
You can also decide you want to try and grow your own community, in which case it might still be helpful to cross post your posts into the other comm to reach interested users
Regardless of what you go with, looking forward to seeing it grow. Thanks for working on it!
I’ve been using threadiverse, but I prefer forumverse
It’s immediately clear what it’s referring to, and it leaves it open to other compatible platforms once they implement activity pub nicely. Being able to subscribe and post to official support forums from the forumverse would be a cool promo point
Also people refer to many things as “threads”. Conversations, comment sections, discord has threads. Forum is much more clear
