It's been sitting here frozen like this for a really long time, hours actually. I'm trying to install Lemmy on my raspberry pi. The terminal hasn't moved at all in hours, but the mouse will nudge a little after like a minute of lag. Is it frozen in a broken way? Or should I just try and leave it for the night?

I have no idea what cross compiling is but I'm open to trying it.
Cross compiling is building software on one platform that's designed to run on a different platform -- e.g. you can build a Rust package on your PC that's designed to run on your Pi. It's not very well-supported in general (i.e. I have no idea if it's even feasible for this scenario) but in cases where it works it can be pretty useful.
Cool. I was just looking it up. Very neat. I don't have the first clue how to go about it but I'll let the little raspberry try overnight. We'll see what happens.
