Generic Threadiverse support

Thanks to @rikudou@lemmings.world's contribution (#28), Lemmy Federate now supports all software types that implements group federation such as PieFed, NodeBB, Guppe 🎉

But unfortunately, not everything is perfect. Since there is no Fediverse standard for verifying whether a user is an admin, I have to register admins manually. I am also considering manually approving instances that are not guaranteed in Fediseer against spam attacks. Please contact me for this.

Note: Lemmy and Mbin works as before.

Top instances of Lemmy

With the addition of Lemmy.ml, the top 25 largest instances on Lemmy now use Lemmy Federate (except slrpnk.net). I think we can now consider that we have fixed the accessibility issue that was the reason I created this tool. Even if we didn't fix it, at least we band-aided it :)

Instance blocking feature

In addition to the allow list, a block list has been added.

• If you allow at least one instance, you will not follow any other instances.
• If you block an instance, you will continue to follow instances other than those you blocked.

Dedicated community

I didn't want to open it before, but now that we are trying to be compatible with more software, I believe a dedicated community could be useful. That's why I created a community here !lemmyfederate@lemy.lol. If I make an update from now on, I'll probably post it there.

I saw this FEP months ago and thought it was pretty promising. However, it seems that there is no update from then. Does anyone know about this?

For those who don't know this proposal brings portable identity across fediverse.

The price seems pretty good. I don't really know much about mini PCs. Do you think there is a better alternative?

Update: ok, not price efficient. Noted 👍

I've been rewriting Lemmy Federate for the last 3 days and finally finished it. While there are no changes on the frontend, many things have changed behind the scenes.

Mbin support

After several requests, I have added Mbin support to Lemmy Federate. It is currently in experimental state. I may improve it in the coming days.

Currently, Lemmy-Mbin connection is off by default. You can enable it by activating the "cross software" option in the instance settings.

Federation mode option

I added this option for small/single user instances. If you select federation mode as seed only in the instance settings, your instance will not follow other instance communities, but other instances will follow your communities.

Although I am not a fan of this option, I think it will work for instances like under 100 users.

I currently have an iPhone 14 Pro Max and I want to switch to an Android phone.

First of all, I eliminated all Chinese phones. Since Samsung has limited custom rom support, I gave up on that too. At the end, I decided to get a Pixel because of its GrapheneOS support.

But right now I'm stuck between Pixel 8 and 9. There's a big price difference with small improvements. I can afford both but not sure if Pixel 9 is worth it. What do you think?

I prefer simplicity and using the first example but I'd be happy to hear other options. Here's a few examples:

HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{ "message": "Unauthorized access" }

HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
Unauthorized access (no json)

HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{ "error": "Unauthorized access" }

HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{
  "code": "UNAUTHORIZED",
  "message": "Unauthorized access",
}

HTTP/1.1 200 (🤡) POST /endpoint
{
  "error": true,
  "message": "Unauthorized access",
}

HTTP/1.1 403 POST /endpoint
{
  "status": 403,
  "code": "UNAUTHORIZED",
  "message": "Unauthorized access",
}

Or your own example.

I have a 32:9 screen and I want to play CS2 in middle, 16:9 way. I couldn't do it natively and tried Gamescope.

While Gamescope works as I would like, the mouse is doesn't work properly. As you can see from the video, game is centered but mouse is aligned to right of the screen. The params I'm using are;

gamemoderun gamescope -f -w 2560 -h 1440 -r 240 --force-grab-cursor -S integer -- %command% -fullscreen

Any recommendations?

I currently use Cloudflare's DNS with disabled proxy and I want to ditch Cloudflare completely now (for known reasons).

I found the desec.io service and it’s looking pretty good to me. What are your thoughts about this site? Would you recommend it? Any other recommendations?

Not exactly self hosting but maintaining/backing it up is hard for me. So many “what if”s are coming to my mind. Like what if DB gets corrupted? What if the device breaks? If on cloud provider, what if they decide to remove the server?

I need a local server and a remote one that are synced to confidentially self-host things and setting this up is a hassle I don’t want to take.

So my question is how safe is your setup? Are you still enthusiastic with it?

I'm using EndeavourOS with ext4 file system for daily usage and a dual bootable Windows for gaming. What I want to have right now is getting rid of Windows completely.

When I tried it before, I had to try multiple tweaks for a game and find which one worked on Linux. Therefore, I want to take a snapshot with BTRFS and try it until I find the right configuration.

While I have quite a bit of experience with Linux, I've never used BTRFS. Do you think it's worth it?

I thought about keeping the games on the ext4 system, but I hate splitting the disk. I'm thinking of keeping the games in a non-snapshot volume.

UPDATE: I just re-installed EndeavourOS with BTRFS + snapper + BTRFS Assistant :)
