rsync for backups? I guess it depends on what kind of backup

for redundant backups of my data and configs that I still have a live copy of, I use restic, it compresses extremely well

I have used rsync to permanently move something to another drive though

I don’t trust an external third party to manage the coordination server.

Headscale has an issue open for wireguard only exit nodes though, I guess ill wait for that.

I tried self-hosting tailscale with headscale, but you cannot have a wireguard only exit node with headscale–and so I can’t have mullvad as my exit node.

If it turns on with mobile data automatically, that turns off my Mullvad VPN.

The original link ap_id corresponds to the author’s instance.

User@feddit.org posts to community@lemmy.ml. The path the post will take is this:

User -> Author’s instance -> Community’s instance -> Notified to all other instances subscribed, to download from author’s instance.

As for your other point, there is no good universal Lemmy linking thing for posts. communities and users have names that work on any instance, but there’s no similar unique identifier for posts.

All ~14M users quit the fediverse simultaneously on that one day and changed their mind a day later

Forgive me if I’m being dumb… But is there a way to share a photo with my own editor, then save the result as an “edited” version of that asset? Currently if I send it to Snapseed, and save it, it will be placed in a different random folder

Irrelevant but its funny how in English “x aren’t shit anymore” can mean it got better or it got worse simultaneously

Not to advertise, but you could try Photon. It’s what Tesseract was forked from wayyy back as me and the tesseract dev’s philosophies split.

It’s more opinionated, and features are carefully organized compared to Tesseract where plenty of shortcuts and links are given (which isn’t bad at all, just targets different preferences).

You can access Photon at https://phtn.app/ to use any instance, or selfhost.

Additionally, some instances I’d recommend that use photon are

• lemdro.id (which uses it as their primary!)
• p.lemmy.world
• photon.slrpnk.net

I’m curious why your instance, sh.itjust.works, hosts Tesseract but not Photon. They have diverged so much they cannot be considered similar.

It was forked around a year or more back I believe. They are completely different projects now imo. Photon aims for the best UX and speed, while Tesseract aims to be super feature-rich.

I removed it because I don’t want my app to necessarily depend or be associated with any specific centralized external source, like MBFC. By adding it to my app, I’m implicitly supporting its use, which wasn’t necessarily my goal.

This must have changed recently since i remember having to add an explicit case to show just “Moderator”

The moderator is only given if the action was taken on your local instance

Photon doesn’t exactly have keyboard navigation, i’ve been working on it though

Lemmy will be indexed less than Reddit, ignoring user counts, because lemmy-ui is client rendered. Googlebot and some others can still index client rendered sites, but others will ignore the content.

It’s just for receiving, like aliases.

Doesn’t have to be installed on your instance, you can also use the official web app instance. It’s very similar to how Voyager works.

The photon UI supports every instance at https://phtn.app, your instance doesn’t have to officially support it.
