I'm running things on a dedicated server with proxmox as hypervisor on OVH. Hard drives are two SSDs on a RAID-1 setup.

Holy shit yes, why didn't I think of CC earlier?

Also, if anyone reads this, apologies for the slow replies, haven't been feeling too well today.

Woah, thanks! I saved this is reply. I'm sure it'll come in handy.

Ha! I completely agree with the wolves as humans part. Definitely could be furrier, but still a good show, though.

Not exactly. It does but search the community and won't work is the community does not already exist on that instance.

I'm looking for a solution that can use the search option for communities that my instance does not already know.

Welcome! It's pretty easy actually.

Everyone with a little bit of technical knowledge can set up their owner server, also called an "instance".

Users sign up for a instance and get access to the communities created on the instance they signed up for but also to the communities of other servers because they can communicate with each other.

The big advantage is that it's not a walled garden. Unlike reddit where one company controls everything, if someone here we're to pull a "Spez" (what Reddit did) they would be laughed out of the room because each server is owned independently.

Currently there's two popular softwares to run these servers: Lemmy and Kbin. But that's just a program that server owners run. I believe there's currently over 300 servers that are running one of these softwares to create this distributed social network.

Hello and welcome! Make yourself comfortable. We got snacks, yiff and great company!

Don't let them catch you posting yiff, though!

Ah! Get well soon!

They are potentially viewable by admins since they're not encrypted end to end and are stored in the database. It's why there's a warning message when you try to send someone a DM.

They should appear as pinned in each community if you visit it and if the moderators have pinned anything.

Unfortunately there's probably a large amount of users who simply don't care.

But that's okay. What matters is content creators, not content consumers. Anyone with half a gram of decency and self integrity will have realized that they need to take steps to move away from Reddit.

Oooh! Faved. I'll try it out once I have some time.

I was 12, I think, when I got my first phone. A Nokia. I was mortified the first time it happened. Then clack-clack-clack I was taught to put it together again.

Happened many more times afterwards.

Yes, apologies. I'll add it now.

Nothing on the fediverse is truly private. Treat everything you say as public and as permanent.

There's a silver lining here. It will prompt people to search from their instance instead of giving more traffic to Google.

Hooray! Younger generations will finally be able to experience the joy of dropping their phone and having to pick up three to four different pieces! /s

(I'm all for this change, by the way)

I'm sorry but that's really really far from reality. What do they understand as demilitarization?

This sounds like James Cameron filming titanic because he wanted to visit it in that mini submarine.
