  • Not as hard as for people from Ukraine, so, nothing to worry about.

    Putin and his government has been killing and putting their opponents to prison since 2000-s. At the same time they were telling older people, that if they chose anyone from opposition, Russia will return to its darkest ages.

    While doing this, they closed or took under their control all indepent media and made it illegal to say something, that doesn't fit their narrative.

    And now people wondering why Russians aren't protesting or fighting that regime.

  • I did it. I deleted all my Reddit accounts.
  • I also did this. 5yrs and 1k karma.

    I'm not that optimistic about lemmy's future (especially after lemmy.world defederation on beehaw), but I'm glad to be here.

    If it won't work, I'll just stop wasting my time on reading things I don't need. If it will, that'll be cool.

  • **Question From Former Redditor**
  • These servers are exchanging info with others.

    One instance starts that exchange if its user or other instance user has subscribed to community on it. Since then it will send and receive all posts and comments for that community to over instances, which has subscribed users on it.

    Some instances may become blocked on other ones, since then that community users will not see posts or comments from blocked community users.

    You can check the list of your instances connections in the footer, under "instances".

  • Best backup for Linux?
  • Maybe Photoprism isn't a backup strategy, but Syncthing for sure is, because you can have multiple backup units in it.

    I'm additionally use software RAID on one of devices, that receives Syncthing backups.

  • What happens if the lemmy instance where I signed up goes offline?
  • No, you can't. Your instance will go down, but all your posts and comments will still live in read-only mode on the instances they been federated before.

    In mastodon (another activity pub service) you can export your account with subscriptions, but not the posts. So, if it'll happen, you gotta start from scratch.

  • How do I know lemmy is here to stay?
  • Look at mastodon (or try it), after Twitter user exile it grows and shines like an independent big social network. Same will happen to lemmy.

    And if original developers will shut down their instances, there will still be a lot of others. And if devs abandon their code, it's opensource, so anybody can continue supporting it. And if not, ActivityPub is a protocol, that's used to exchange data, and new software will be written, like kbin is a working alternative to lemmy.

    So, the only thing to worry about is a userbase, we must form it to attract new creative people here.

  • Idk, was fixing wiring with my father to learn some basics. And helped a plumber, who was replacing pipes completely at 2 of apartments where I've lived.

    I think, there's a lot of youtube videos to do that. I was watching ones on my native language.
