I dunno, they're eyeing you like YOU might be on the menu before long.
+1 for Fastmail.
I've been using it for about 3 years. I'm on the Standard plan (middle tier). It's $4.20/mo. per user when prepaying for 3 years and ranges up to $5.40/mo. for monthly billing.
Not sure if there's a (practical) limit on domains or aliases, but I have 7 domains and a few aliases plus a wildcard. Includes 30GB of storage per user.
The "collapse" of the government in a parliamentary system means the government no longer commands the confidence of a majority of the (typically) lower house, in this case the House of Representatives. Nothing immediate happens, although the prime minister may (or may not) resign, a "caretaker" government takes over until a new elections are held.
Here, it sounds like one of the four coalition parties has pulled out due to disagreeemnt over immigration, which the coalition parties had never agreed on.
Yeah I have the same problem. I've been testing both Mlem and Memmy and I was in the latter when I first saw your post. Switched over to Mlem and the image doesn't preload and I don't see a way to open it.
And messages
Thanks, that's good info. If I do go forward, I was planning on going the Ansible route, though I've never used it before.
I've read that it can take a bit of time to sync when you first federate, but that after some period of time it gets closer to real-time with posts and comments.
According to the lemmy.world Instances page, lemmygrad.ml is linked, not blocked. I know it's blocked on a number of other instances.
I'm glad that worked. I'm considering launching a personal self-hosted instance of my own, so I may be in your shoes soon enough.
How did you find the process? Did you use Docker or Ansible?
Have you tried searching for the communities first? As I understand it from some other posts, if you try to access a remote community via URL through your home instance before it "knows" about it, you'll get the 404 error. Someone (you) on your instance has to make your instance "aware" of the remote community by searching for it first. Then, after your instance is aware of the community and federating it, you can access it via URL as you posted above.
I don't necessarily want reddit to die, or even see its user base devolve into dregs. I view competition as a positive. Lemmy and the broader fediverse is competition for reddit and vice versa. Both existing and thriving may make each better over time.
Perhaps one reason we got to this point is that reddit has control over the market on this format, or at least has the dominant network effect. Many seem view this as a zero-sum game, where for one player to advance another must fall away, but I find that perspective short-sighted.
I respect (and share, to a certain extent) the opinions and frustrations of recent defectors, but urge everyone to take a long-term view.
Thank you for pointing this out. I missed the difference and was very confused/concerned.
Just passing along what I've read many times: that self hosting email can be difficult. Particularly sending, because the large providers tend to treat email from less known sources with more skepticism (such as by marking as spam), even with properly configured SPF and DKIM.
And if your server is down, you may miss any incoming mail for the duration. I don't know if other providers would try resending after a period of time if the receiver is unreachable, but I doubt it (just an educated guess).
I love self hosting services but email is something I've decided not to touch with a ten foot pole.
