Yep, I modded my switch, dumped the keys and my games and went “Now what?” and after playing via Yuzu on my PC I realized this was the only way I really wanted to play the few Switch games I enjoy.

Every now and then I’ll boot into the stock firmware to play Mario Kart with some friends when they want to play, and that’s it.

I imagine that is the case, however they could refund it given the situation.

I get the feeling they won’t allow refunds.

Ah I see, that’s unfortunate then. For what its worth, I still think the bot is a great idea for discoverability and bridging the two services together! I hadn’t seen it before since I usually have bot users muted and happened to see this comment chain while logged out.

I’ve given it a follow from my Mastodon account since I do tend to miss quite a few cool Lemmy posts it seems, and I think it’ll help me find some communities in general that I’ll want to subscribe to from over here.

I wonder if perhaps wrapping the majority of the text in a spoiler would work. Though I don’t know if that translates over to Mastodon (if not, it might look a bit funky on that side).

And if you really want even more barebones, you can just do git init --bare into a directory on your VPS, and then git clone user@your.ip.here:path/to/the/directory and use git as you would normally!

Sometimes the only way out is through :)

Hit escape to enter normal mode, :q to quit if you don’t have any pending changes, :wq to save and quit (or Shift ZZ), :q! if you don’t care about your changes (save without exiting)

If you’re interested in learning Vim, I’d recommend running vimtutor, which should be present on most systems. But of course, the best way to learn it is to simply use it as much as you can!

Yep, my desktop PC may or may not have one of its SSDs not mounted…

What are your language settings set to in your Lemmy profile? I know if you deselect Undetermined, it will cause this.

That also being said, most of the comments here are tagged as English, and the comment in your screenshot doesn’t seem like it was tagged as such - weird question, but do you by chance have English deselected?

When I view this post from the feddit.uk instance, I can see all the comments so I don’t think it’s a sync issue, unless they’re all appearing for you now.

!selfhost@lemmy.ml and !selfhosted@lemmy.world OP, in case you’d like to cross-post this.

Yes, although like someone else mentioned - I don’t, and ever wouldn’t try to host it at home, but on a server at a data center. The network is operated by a person I know and trust.

No IP reputation issues that I’ve run into, but even going in I knew that its very rare I send emails so it probably wasn’t going to be an issue either way. I’ve only had it running for about two years now, but in that time frame I’ve sent one email out where I “started the conversation”, and three emails where I was replying back to someone who already had my email in their address book.

Oh that’s quite simple! I’ve been just using Nginx, I’ll have to have a look into Caddy, thank you!

I’ve not heard of an alternative Web UI for Nextcloud - but I imagine your best bet would be to look for apps that can connect to the actual services being hosted by NC itself. So for example, using CalDav/CardDav to sync Calendar/Contacts/Tasks, etc. Unsure about the RSS Reader though because I’ve not used its RSS Reader, but I imagine there’s got to be something that can connect to it.

I’m assuming both listed IPs are the same IP address? Those are internal IP addresses so you don’t need to censor them.

Also, is this the Jellyfin app? If so, what happens if you bring up either addresses through a web browser?

Unfortunately, I’m not so sure that the moderator/owner of this community is still around - their account history shows zero posts / comments on it, and they are the only one who’d be able to change those settings.

I do not think that self-hosting necessarily means that you have to host it at home. As others have pointed out, its more about hosting it on hardware you control.

I do think there is certainly a trust factor involved if you host stuff on hardware that you don’t own, but at the end of the day only you can deem whom you can trust. For example, I rent a couple of dedicated servers from a provider, but I also have a pretty good personal connection with the owner of that provider - so I have no concerns about the safety of my data. In general, I tend to just be pretty conscientious about what data is going to any server, and anything that I wouldn’t want falling into the wrong hands doesn’t leave my house unless I can guarantee its safety (with the likes of encryption and such).

I do also keep in mind that with the various providers out there, reputation is paramount to them (or at least, the good ones) so it is generally in their best interest to say, let someone walk into their datacenter and just start ripping the drives from your systems.

Personally, its a combination of the following reasons:

• I’m not held to another server, and self-hosting my own makes sure that whomever hosting the server doesn’t just close the doors one day and decide they’re no longer going to do so

• I find it fun to setup my own services, like Matrix, Lemmy, Mastodon, etc

• I control what servers are blocked / defederated from, from my knowledge though defederating on Matrix doesn’t happen nearly as often as it does for ActivityPub based platforms however.

• I created Matrix accounts for some of my family members to communicate with, and if they lose the password I know that I can reset it for them rather than hoping they setup the account recovery info correctly.

I’m a big fan of Matrix, as it’s easily accessible from anywhere - plus I already have a server for it spun up going on two years now which makes it easier for me.

The Bitwarden clients all keep a cached copy of your password database, which can be viewed even if your server goes offline (you just can’t make edits) - you can even export it when that is the case.

However, if you log out of Bitwarden, it erases the local cache off that device, which will require your server to be online in order to retrieve again (or export it from a different device that is still signed in).

Can definitely do!

I have a follow-up question if you don’t mind! You mentioned this:

To combat this, I’ve updated LPP with some additional configuration options to do both direct “purge” of leftover media in Pict-rs not tied to “kept” posts and a forced “remove” of files on the file system that are not properly purged (if using local storage).

Is there a specific setting to use this? For example, if I don’t want to setup any aging post purging at the moment, but just want to do as you mentioned (removing any media that isn’t tied to a post), which setting(s) would I use to accomplish this?

It looks like this might be done by just passing in a PICTRS_FOLDER directory, and then setting a high PURGE_OLDER_THAN_DAYS variable would do this if I understand right?
