It’s a bit of the wild west for now, but you’re right. Pretty much anyone can create a community, and I actually think that’s a good thing. Have you ever been part of an online community that you loved, and it shifted to something you just didn’t want to be part of anymore? When that happens, the decentralized nature of Lemmy and similar federated social media makes it possible for a new community to form and grow that is different, and for some, better.
Interestingly, when I search for motorcycles in the communities I only see two. This one, and another that has a single subscriber. Motorcycles are Fun doesn’t show up for me. I think perhaps which communities you see depends on what server you signed up with, and what other servers that one links to. Right now I am signed into lemmy.world. I see from your photo that you were signed in to feddit.de. Perhaps OP was signed into a different server. This is a real problem for Lemmy IMHO. If I can’t search and find ALL the Lemmy communities from my “home” server, and have to create accounts at other servers to see different content and communities, well, forget it. Caveat, I am also brand new and may not have a clue what I’m talking about, just observations from a noob at this point.
Here is their post about it:
I’ve never used object storage before, so I’m not even sure that’s the best approach for the use case. It makes sense when you need to access storage provided by a 3rd party in a standardized way, but perhaps it’s overkill when everything is self hosted. I wonder if folks have other ways to connect the application to remote storage that’s less “heavy.” That said, I will certainly dig into Minio, as it seems to be the best of breed. Thanks!
I’ve actually been kind of a broker in keeping them connected. The 4 of us were still doing things together, usually at my suggestion, despite my not wanted to see her, so that they would. I tried hard to keep them connected and keep their relationships from falling apart. My thanks is that she more or less robbed me in the divorce, taking as much as she could. She’s on her own with the kids now, I never want to see her again. They do still spend some time together. Both the kids understand that she is their only mom and always will be.
If you port forward to your Pi, only your Pi will be exposed. But, if your Pi gets pwned, it can in turn attack anything next to it. Safest is to isolate the Pi on it’s own subnet or a DMZ if your router has the functionality.
Of note, many home ISPs block standard server ports like 80 and 443. You might need to use non standard ports like 8080 and 8443
Having multiple communities in different instances for the same topic is a controversial topic that I haven’t yet settled on an opinion about. However, what I’m talking about here is that the content for the same community shows different across various instances. That seems very broken to me
I agree that r/dataisbeautiful turned out to be very political. What I saw was that the community was rather united in its political stance and if someone made a post that was out of line with the community’s ideology they got roasted. The reaction was rarely about how the information could have been portrayed more intuitively, or how the data could have been stronger. Those reactions were for posts that were in line. Others were downright attacked. It certainly wasn’t about making data beautiful
