What's some really unpopular opinion you have?
  • My dog absolutely hates being outside in the yard, but she loves walks and hikes. Unfortunately the nearest place that’s safe for us to walk is a long car ride away because I live in a somewhat rural area. So she only ever gets these on weekends when I’m able to dedicate several hours to it. If I were to live in a city she’d be getting a ton more stimulation daily.

  • what do you do when you're alone in an elevator
  • Yeah, most of the elevators I encounter are at hotels while traveling, so it’s usually the first place I have a moment to breathe after going non-stop for hours and hours. I’m not practicing karate, I’m trying not to collapse from exhaustion.

  • Can Lemmy have distributed communities
  • I think it might be a better approach to have communities link together and if you post to one, it goes to all of them. However we should probably focus on making sure the basics work correctly first before dreaming big.

  • Why do people host Lemmy instances and how do they pay for them?
  • Yeah the choice of VPN doesn't really matter here. I would just configure it to not push a default route to cut down on the amount of traffic going through. You could even use something like ZeroTier if you wanted.

  • Why do people host Lemmy instances and how do they pay for them?
  • It’s a bit of a janky solution, but I’m just running an openvpn server on the lowest tier vps which my home server auto-connects to on boot. From there it’s just iptables rules to reroute the external traffic through the VPN. I’ve also used it to proxy Minecraft servers and a few other things.

  • Why do people host Lemmy instances and how do they pay for them?
  • I already owned my own home server that I built for running a file server and other random things. Currently all I’m paying for is $2.50/month for a proxy server on Google Cloud so I don’t have to expose my stuff directly to the internet.
