Hmm. I’m not sure what the advantage would be over just creating communities on existing instances, then, if someone else is still going to be the admin.

Sure. What’s your plan for moderating content like piracy, death threats, CSAM, and terrorism?

Assuming that the account mentioned in the linked dev update post is the one that commented underneath it, you can see it for yourself. Go to the dev update post, go to the account page, and scroll back through the comments until you see the ones OP is talking about.

I am against the L4s bot, because it posts a lot of non-technology news. Twitter changing its rules is not news, let alone technology news.

Right, but going by the account that commented under the dev post, the first is the one we’re talking about. The second account exists, but hasn’t made any posts or comments at all.

Lemmy has separate usernames and display names.

The account is not an hour old. You can click through the links and see for yourself that it’s the same account.

I’m not aware of any on-prem solution that will automatically resize if it needs more space. You could set it up to expand if it hits some low disk space threshold. But if your use case is users randomly sending giant files, consider cloud storage.

Actually, you might be able to do some kind of object storage on-prem, Ceph or something. Personally I would get some enterprise storage, like a full SAN.

Create a 2tb virtual disk, whatever that means on your platform, and attach it to the VM. Growing a qcow2 image is trivial (qemu-img resize disk.qcow2 +10G). Yes, you will also have to grow the partition inside the VM, but that’s always going to be true and should also be trivial.

Oh that reminds me, Voat happened. It wasn’t a code fork but a clone, and it was also filled with right-wing garbage.

Tildes is still around too, but I think it’s got even less traction than lemmy.

Did anyone do that with reddit? It used to be open source too.

Right. Discord is IRC-like, but all of the “servers” are just a logical separation within Discord.

Fair enough.

From an end user perspective, it feels like it’s operationally stable, though I don’t know about developmentally stable. Maybe it’s worth a 1.0 release soon. Lots of people are running it in production now.

If these are API-breaking changes, shouldn’t you bump the major version? https://semver.org/

Feel free. It’s open source.

And that happens by people linking to it.

The implication is to say “I’m busy right now, let me get back to you”.
