Worse plug how? You can buy DP cables without the locking mechanism.

Would love to hear the highlights of what PenguinCoder did to remediate things.

The problem is the crazies started getting voted into office. Not a ton, but enough now to start driving the party narrative. They don't listen to reason, they don't compromise, and they have no grip on reality. They would rather burn it all to the ground than let one more gay person get married, one more woman make her own health care choice, or etc. Their own party doesn't even know wtf to do about it.

The article is misleading by leaving out critical details about the amount of energy actually used in the test.

That said, progress is progress.

Document everything. Found a useful link that helped you configure something? Copy the link. Finally got your proxy working right? Save the config. Even just make notes of how you set things up.

Refine and build you notes along with your knowledge.

Eventually, consider keeping all your config files in a self-hosted repository like Gitea.

Oh, and when stuff breaks it's probably DNS.

The memes on Lemmy have been delightful in that many of them legitimately make me laugh. Keep up the good work!

It's been ages since I ran into a site issue, using both desktop and mobile Firefox. Not saying it doesn't happen, but seems that issues are very few and far between these days.

I have done this before by setting up a Wireguard VPN link between my home server and a VPS, and then running a reverse proxy (such as Caddy) on the VPS, which basically forwarded web requests to my home server. This works well for most things, although there was a definite performance hit by routing traffic through the extra hop.

By using the VPN connection, you wouldn't even need to open a port on your home network which is a great starting point for security as well.

Agree, there is very low friction to switching off reddit onto another site offering a similar service with a better experience. Lemmy seems to be offering exactly that, and if we continue to see growth in posts and engagement, it will be very successful.

Firewatch is great! Since you liked that, also check out Life is Strange: True Colors

I for one am happy to find a new self-hosted community starting here! It's the one thing that kept me going back to reddit over the past few months but now am finding more and more I can shift my time here instead.

Self-hosting is exactly what guarantees it wouldn't happen on Lenny.
