But, make a backup of your db beforehand. I don’t know how it would work when upgrading an existing database

Understandable, I will say you definitely chose to dive straight into the deep end choosing Lemmy 🤣 I think most people cut their teeth using docker on stuff like Plex and the related *arrs, then jump to the more complex stuff.
But, it’s also the best way to learn so enjoy it :) stuff like this will become trivial eventually


This is the solution to your problem
Change your config to mount the data directory to /var/lib/postgresql instead of /var/lib/postgresql/data
My advice though, if your debugging skills are primarily comprised of asking AI for help, you’re in for a bit of a learning curve. The software is absolutely amazing (I’ve been running an instance since 2023), but weird things pop up and because this is so niche quick google searches are very limited and you gotta be willing to dive into github issues (this for example, I’ve also had to do it for pictrs to debug something a while ago).
Don’t feel discouraged though, this is probably the most rewarding thing I host (more than plex, immich, or any of the other “mainstream” things people talk about)
Editing to add, i know this is the fix because I had to reinstall lemmy from the ground up (long story) a few weeks ago and had the same issue :)


Third’d
Mint or any other ubuntu-derivative distro is 10000% the move. I’ve been running ubuntu as my os for a while now, and I’ve spent nearly the last decade on linux (makes me feel old saying that lol).
The other distros have a lot of strength, but at the end of the day i want to spend my time messing with things i want to mess with. I don’t want random weird issues that I have to constantly debug, and everyone can agree that stability is debian’s (and therefore ubuntu’s) undisputed strength
I mean, the only alternative is physical media of course ;)
Is it good? I’ve had it in the backlog for a while

Yeah, this was a fresh db. I think it had to do with other instances thinking mine was dead. Things have started to come in as expected now, so hopefully everything works from here (🤞)

Ahhh okay! Yeah it seems that in the 24h since i made this post, things have started to work as I’d expect again!
Guess i was just being impatient, I’ve been going through lemmy withdrawals for the last week or so while i worked through this issue 🤣
Thanks for the matrix link, I’ll join the room (and finally get some real use out of my matrix server)

Well, at least by creating this post, I know that outgoing federation works!


Thunar = 🐐
Although, the only reason I use it is because when i made the switch many moons ago, i was following this guy’s tutorial on setting up i3 and he recommended thunar. Never looked back (although, at this point i think its more about the ui than any functional difference)


Okay yes this makes sense. Although, honestly i think I’d prefer the AP method of doing it because BlueSky sends ALL content to all nodes, so it’s MUCH less cost effective to join with a private server.
I run my own lemmy instance, so i know the data volume since 2023 has been probably like a terabyte or so. But, with BlueSky I’d have to account for the data volume of all users on the platform as a whole, bringing the data volume way up to tens of terabytes (a guess based almost entirely on nothing).
So it really boils down to yes I agree that AP has problems with data accessibility, but I’d prefer that over unnecessary data redundancy


… but at least the rest of their system is actually substantially more decentralized architecturally than AP is.
In the blog post you linked, neither the author or myself came to your conclusion:
However, I stand by my assertions that Bluesky is not meaningfully decentralized and that it is certainly not federated according to any technical definition of federation we have had in a decentralized social network context previously. To claim that Bluesky is decentralized or federated in its current form moves the goalposts of both of those terms, which I find unacceptable.


Saw it on Friday, the first 75% was fucking fire. Towards the end it started to feel like absurdist comedy a little bit but i still enjoyed it


Was it good? The trailer kinda seemed wack, but it’s doing really well in the box office


FWIW, i also have a great home theater and media library set up. But, the AMC a list subscription is genuinely worth it. $26/mo for 4x movies a week (any format) is such a crazy good deal.
I go to the theaters at least twice a week now, and it’s honestly great. My HT might be good, but its not IMAX good & having a few new movies to choose from vs thousands of options to stream is a win when going with a group too


Mobile order :) place the order when you leave for the theater, and it’ll be ready for pickup when you arrive
In a general sense? No, i don’t think most people require a lesson
But I’m deadass about the lesson, we learned how to read a map, use the map scale, different types of maps, etc etc
Do they not teach this in all schools? I definitely learned map reading in grade school, and I’m Gen Z so being able to read a map was never a necessity in my life
The blurry image appears to depict an animal, and based on the suggested search results, it could potentially be a ferret, hamster, bobcat, cougar, or red fox. Given the shape and coloring, it most closely resembles a ferret.
Im gonna go ahead and say: absolutely no idea that picture is blurry as hell
Of course this is only for senators, god forbid they give us mere civilians the same protections 🙄
