Yes accounts are distributed to each server. Same as communities.

I agree except someone has to host the content and they should get to decide what’s not allowed.

lemmy, kbin and mastodon are federated but you can’t log into each app with an account from another platform. You can post to lemmy from your mastodon server, but not log into beehaw.org.

Ah, I see. thanks

I was also under the impression that instances don’t cache remote images, but I’m seeing a lot of cached images under volumes/pictrs/files.

Turns out docker is configured to reference everything though relative paths. I just needed to move the directory and everything kept working.

The lemmy ui is removing websockets in the next update replacing it with a REST API. I suspect that will stop any new posts from popping to the top after load.

People seem to not want new posts and comments moving things around on their page anyway.

I got similar errors when I was running out of disk space. Maybe not the same problem you had but just mentioning

Ah got it. Yes, Im using docker compose but setup through ansible. Sounds like I just need to update the bind mount then. Thanks

wow very tricky, thanks for reporting back! Can I ask if you’re seeing better performance running postgresql separately?

One of the downsides seems like since the developer packages everything together, I’m reliant on them to push out changes. For example if some dependency needs a critical security update then I’m relying on every flatpak author to apply that change and push out a new version. But if I’m installing packages directly, I can update that one package and be done with it across my system.

Thanks for this insightful post. I agree that the fediverse feels different and that’s ok. It’s exciting to get the chance to build something new and be a part of it starting.

I think that’s right. A request for deletion gets made and it’s up to each server to decide if they will honor it.
