It’s not weird. I’d appreciate it if it were me.

This was an issue at the start of July. I would hope that most all instances would be patched now. I know mine is.

Not strictly true. Mastodon, pixelfed, KBin all cache images.

Imgur block commercial IP ranges so KBin is unable to fetch, process and cache the thumbnail.

Imgur doesn’t work with vpns. To view your meme post I have to got through steps to disable either my work or private VPNs. At this point the end result is I just don’t bother.

Oh yeah. But I click a button like that and my image is uploaded to the instance (KBin)

PS. Can’t see that image as Imgur blocks my VPN.

Does Lemmy not let you just attach them to your post?

I just bought an actual domain and use that 😅

As an added bonus, letsencrypt works with no effort.

When it’s running in server mode it provides a similar UI too when it’s a client, except now you can browse the snapshots/policies of each client that uses it.

Not quite full management but yeah, good for home use.

My vote goes to Kopia.

Boosted and upvoted because I think you’re right. 😀

This isn’t the case though? Upvotes (aka favourites everywhere else) are what affect the “algorithm” the functionality thats broken is Karma tracking.

It’s been a long time since I even thought about Futurama so I wasnt sure if ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD

Yeah. That is sadly #JustFederationThings.

In your case if you copy the full handle of the magazine from those results and use the actual search functionality kbin with go off and find it and then it will show up in those first results.

Because otherwise you end up with multiple copies of communities all sharing the same name with no clear distinction.

Thing is. That’s no different to anything your average reddit migrator would have done? This sub about topic slow? boring? full of trolls? Search for another. Oh look, there’s this other one with the similar name, it’s got more people on it, I’ll sub to that too.

The literal only difference is that now the alternatives can have the same name*

*assuming you ignore the @instance.domain bit at the end.

It has an option to always show what instance communities and users originate from.

If the concept of federation is confusing or daunting why would having it be more visible help? Genuine question.

Sign up, browse stuff, comment on stuff, curate your feed by subbing, all the other details are just noise.

Caveat: Unless you’re on a small instance that isn’t aware of the communities you might want. But let’s face it, if the concept of federation is confusing you you probably didn’t join some micro instance hosted by your mate Joe.

Came here to comment this “obscure” combination. That I use. Lol

Kopia is a solid bit of software. I run it on my VPS’s, my homelab and my desktop/laptops. All to a single Backblaze repo.

Not to mention that the defacto package manager (composer) blows NPM out of the water in basically all metrics. From what I understand most languages package managers now look up to or even model themselves on it.

Large parts of my particular departments .gov.uk stack are PHP. All modern (8.1+) using established frameworks and to be honest, it’s a joy. It’s quick to write, easy to understand and very easy to test. The write, run, debug cycle is also essentially instant; although I really enjoy using Go (another bit of the stack) being able to quickly iterate changes is something I absolutely miss when I’m using it.

Laravel + Livewire is some sort of dark voodoo magic. I can write only PHP and have a functioning SPA with push updates and all sorts.

There are tests (and if the readme is to be believed a 71% coverage) they live in the top level tests/ folder.

As to the .env file you just need to rename the example one and either amend these values (with appropriate urls)

SERVER_NAME=localhost
KBIN_DOMAIN=localhost:9443
KBIN_STORAGE_URL=https://localhost:9443/media

MERCURE_URL=https://localhost:9443/.well-known/mercure
MERCURE_PUBLIC_URL=https://localhost:9443/.well-known/mercure
CADDY_MERCURE_URL=https://localhost:9443/.well-known/mercure

Or add them to a new .env.local file.

Start it all up and jobs done*

*well, you need to run the asset pipeline and add an admin user but that’s all in the Readme.
