UK here. Most people I work with will have Signal or Telegram. However my kids and the parents groups and schools all use WhatsApp.
None of them could get their friends to switch from WhatsApp. Nobody gives a shit at all about Meta and their dodgy data practices. Convenience is king. “aLL mY frIEnDs aRE oN WHatSaPp!”
They will literally be excluded if they don’t use it.
Super-frustrating and makes me feel pretty helpless tbh.
I was primarily interested in r/soapmaking, r/instantpot and r/breadmachines. Also some true crime ones - I’ve joined the ones I could find here but there’s hardly anyone in them.
Yes totally. I originally used Reddit because I was subscribed to some super-niche hobby communities. I never doom-scrolled the front page or anything. These communities don’t yet exist in Lemmy yet so I’m kind of hanging around to see what happens. And yes, everything is negative. But to be fair, I didn’t sign up expecting to read uplifting stories and people (or bots) are just posting clickbait garbage that the internet is already awash in anyways.
I prefer more discussion forum type communities rather than link aggregators. I just need to keep looking for what I like and subscribing to those so I can filter out the crap.
Dealt with by simply rinsing it afterwards
I’m not up to speed on the environmental impact of cotton farming, but it would be pretty cool if this technology could be applied to stuff like the oil palm, which only grows in tropical areas.
Great, now it will be even easier to post endlessly about it.
My kid’s school here in the UK banned them, but the kids all take them in anyways and the teachers don’t care.
I had banned YouTube in the house, but then the school started assigning homework to watch YouTube videos.
The dependence of our infrastructure on private social media companies is shocking and needs to be stopped immediately.
There are 2 reverse proxies involved. One is Nginx which is used to front both the Lemmy UI and the Lemmy backend. That’s what the ‘proxy’ container in the docker compose file is for. It seems to be a required component of the application stack as different request types to the same host FQDN are sent to different backends (‘upstreams’ in network speak). You could use Caddy here instead if you wanted, which is the point of this page: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/caddy.html. However, that config doesn’t work for the latest version of Caddy (you’ll get an error about stuff being outside of the site block).
The other one (could either be Nginx again or Caddy or anything else you want instead) is to front the whole thing and provide TLS termination using Letsencrypt. This bit is explained here: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html#reverse-proxy--webserver
I am not telling you to quit I’m not telling you to know more. I was merely suggesting that the devs put out the minimal required documentation for an experienced admin to get it up and running, while also suggesting a way to not waste money.
Sorry it came out wrong.
Do you have a local device you can try all this on first so you’re not wasting money?
I agree the guides aren’t great, but they assume you have some experience doing this stuff.
Yep same here, although for me it’s bread machine and instant pot.
The instant pot is hardly ‘doomed’. Despite its popularity it’s still kind of niche. Tired of things being measured by whether or not they are an internet sensation.
Yep. If it’s a video it gets a hard pass from me. They can get their ‘views’ from someone else.
I mean through the Jerboa app though. What you’re suggesting is through the web UI right?
Yeah. Getting sick of it is definitely a thing. Not eating it on the weekend helps, as does changing the type of oil. There are other bits you can change. I’ve definitely had to take breaks from it from time to time!
I was looking at similar requirements for my daily lunch during the workday. I live in London so you’re paying between £5 and £10 per day even for just a sandwich-based lunch. I needed a packed lunch that was cheap, tasty, healthy and additionally: filling, easy/quick to prepare and low carb. So that’s a big ask.
I settled on a kind of custom Greek salad. One cucumber, some red onion, pickled beetroot all diced up, olive oil (or cold-pressed rapeseed oil) and some feta cheese. Sometimes I add chickpeas and coriander.
It’s perfect, I’ve been eating it for years now.
If you make the bread yourself (i.e. with a breadmaker) it’s dirt cheap. I buy flour and yeast in bulk and it costs bugger all per loaf.
You could maybe argue bread isn’t healthy because it’s technically a processed food (flour, carbs, etc.), but as others have pointed out moderation is key.
I would use it. Anything to not have to use public transportation or fly in an airplane ever again.
