I noticed a couple days ago that this project didn't exist yet in the Rust ecosystem, so I created it. If you need to programmatically interact with a mainframe system, you can now do it conveniently with this library.

I've currently provided two levels of abstraction, but a third is on the way (once I've decided on an implementation).

If you have any thoughts or suggestions, I'm open to them.

How does this work with the code license? If this is all fine, doesn't this mean that we should be avoiding the kind of license they're using in the future?

This is awesome! Thank you!

I have a lot of interest in software development (and the Rust programming language specifically). Any plans to add a software development community? I don't know of any feeds, though.

So is Meta just not going to display/embed news in Canada anymore or is this a temporary measure until they roll out their plan to pay publishers?

"then it doesn't deserve to exist"

When I hear that, I hear an implicit value judgement with Meta as the standard. The value of an instance is in if it can survive against a social aggregation to Meta's instance. Only then is it worthy of existing, if it can compete with the degree of funding, advertising, and account creation streamlining that we would expect from a social media platform giant.

When I hear that, I hear that small, self-hosted instances don't deserve to exist.

What's your setup? How do you aggregate different feeds to one page? Where do you find the feeds? I have so many RSS questions - everyone who uses it loves it and I want to understand it.

Is lynx worth using? How does JavaScript work? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)

So long as it's not resource harvesting robots, ever expanding outward from their host planet...

I want to find or contribute to an open source Android app that behaves as a browser so that I can incorporate saving web pages to a specified (self-hosted) wallabag docker instance. Any suggestions?

I used to have a phone with a replaceable battery and it was awesome. I would charge the other battery while using the phone all day, carefree. When it was about to die, I'd swap out the battery. It was basically like I had an instant charge of 100% on my phone. Those were good days.

I've never heard of these before. I'll have to check them out. Thanks for the suggestion.

I once bought a router to use for my internet when I moved into my new house just to find out that it "wasn't compatible" with Verizon's service. I still have it (because I'm terrible about returning things). Is there any point in keeping it? Is there anything fun or interesting that I could do with it?

My raspberry pi 4 is using 810mb of RAM and 11gb of file system space.

These things hurt me while setting up my Lemmy instance on my Raspberry Pi 4 via Docker.

  • The instance name must be less than or equal to 20 characters in length (database limit)
  • The lemmy and lemmy-ui docker images must be arm64 (for my Ubuntu 22.04 setup on my RaspberryPi)
  • The certbot image needs to be added to the docker-compose from the docker install instructions and "depend_on" the nginx image
  • I needed to disable the 80->443 redirect in my nginx config in order to get my initial cert (maybe there's another way)
  • The lemmy container needs its own network to allow it to access the internet (permitting searching)
