Is this a repost? I’ve seen this exact same post somewhere.

Anyway, SimpleX may not be decentralized OOTB, but can be made to be since their relays are self-hostable. It should be as simple as spinning up an instance and changing the url in app.

The Proton free tier is pretty limited compared to Gmail, in particular for me, you’re only allowed 1 label. The basic paid tier opens up a lot more. They definitely want you to upgrade to the paid tier.

I would hope in the future we get a more fleshed out version of multireddits. I think it would be a decent solution since I don’t think duplication of communities is a phenomenon that will ever go away.

Joined on one instance, it went away, had to create a new account on this instance.

That’s a really annoying issue. Not being able to trust an instance to keep your account alive plants the seeds for a centralization problem in the future.

Agreed, though I think it’s less “we don’t want you here” and more “you’re on your own”. I liken it to Linux in that sense where new users are expected to try harder to learn the ins and outs. The difference is with Linux what you learn can be applied in so many more places in your Linux experience. With Lemmy, once you grasp the technical depth of it there’s not much you can do with it except explain it to another person.

I agree, though I probably wouldn’t call it marketing or advertising. Maybe just a better and more accessible introduction and onboarding experience.

Except OP is starting a meta discussion about Reddit discussions, not a direct discussion about Reddit. I don’t necessarily agree with OP, but you’ve crafted an artificial contradiction using a false equivalence. I’d be happier if we left the Reddit-tier logic back where it belongs.

Are you still using it? I went through many deployments before I finally thought I had it settled.

At the beginning of the pandemic I looked into ways to de-Google and found Nextcloud. It wasn’t the easiest thing to start with, especially for a novice, but I had the time and the hardware, and I’m the type to not mind jumping into something difficult if it means solving a specific problem. I then found out about Bitwarden and had a great experience setting that up. After that I was confident enough to try hosting anything I could find. It’s been good times ever since 😀

This is extremely valuable, thanks for this!

As a general question, why did you decide to use a single postgres container for multiple services instead of multiple, stack specific containers? When I first started working with containers I considered your scheme for the sake of minimalism, but didn’t want a single container to bring down multiple unrelated services. I also had the resources to accomodate the redundancy.

Feedback on what works lets businesses allocate resources to things that will get new/keep current customers and save in places that don’t matter as much. It’s the core principle of any business and everything else, while useful and important in its own way, is secondary.

Now whether or not it feels like businesses are acting on that feedback in a way that makes a difference is a whole other beast.
