Hey peeps, let's have a chat.

Do you have anything that you would like to see improved around the divisions by zero? I'm always up for enhancements I could implement. I can't change the lemmy source, but I can do plugins and other hacks.

You can mention anything, from tech stuff, to softer social stuff.

I don't know man. You guys have done a lot for the federated community from fighting CSAM to maintaining privacy and security standards. I kinda trust your instance more than any other.

Just keep at it and know I'm grateful.

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 weeks ago

I nevertheless appreciate your kind words

[-] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 2 weeks ago

Echoing Blaze, thanks db0! May the sea be kind to ye and all of us.

[-] Blaze@feddit.org 8 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you a lot indeed!

[-] Rabbit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 weeks ago

Yep it's been perfect. I'm very happy with this instance and communities.

[-] Im_old@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

I'm a moron because I thought the name meant database zero. Anyway, keep up the good work!

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 weeks ago

better than dragonball zero :D

I've been meaning to see if people want to help improve the site banner . It's currently rotating every other day using the AI Horde. Do you have any cool prompt we could also use?

I use this instance daily and I really like it. The experience is exactly what I'm about, audhder and sharing data. I think that I typically discover new communities by the community having a really legit post that pops up in the hot feed. I would really like if there was better discoverability of cool communities, or even a big list of all the communities so that I could browse through the less active ones that have good posts from the past. @db0 you're doing a really good job. My main technical gripe is that the Jerboa client does not search by post and only searches by community but that isn't a instance level issue. That's a developer issue for the Lemmy client. I mention it here in case you ever get a chance to bend the ear of the Lemmy developers. Now that I'm thinking of it, a hub for other fetaverse stuff to hook up to would be pretty cool or just resources in general for how to navigate fediverse. That might be outside of the scope of a runner of an instance, but the learning curve I think would be a little less steep if there was some Lemmy/Fediverse onboarding kind of built into a mega thread for new users. Overall you're doing great, keep it up! Thanks!

Feel free to have a look at !newcommunities@lemmy.world too, we try to solve the discoverability issue there

Maybe bring back Tesseract? Why was it shut down in the first place?

Another idea I had: Hosting our own Matrix instance? That way, every community could create their own spaces while being independent from matrix.org and not putting more stress on their already overloaded servers. Running a modern Matrix server implementation like Conduit, which is written in Rust, shouldn't require as much resources.

Tesseract abandoned lemmy for sublinks as far as I remember.

I don't have the mental bandwidth to run a matrix server as well.

[-] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

I believe it still has Lemmy compatibility since sublinks is Lemmy compatible in its API, might not be forever when they add new features but at the moment it still is.

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Maybe but it remember its dev saying they won't be focus on on the lemmy anymore.

[-] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

It seems to be getting updates again checking the github, and the creator still runs a Lemmy instance, so I imagine until sublinks comes out (which it probably won't for a while) it'll still continue supporting Lemmy.

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

Hm OK I'll see if I can re-add it

[-] Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago
[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 weeks ago

that's not used on purpose

[-] Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 weeks ago

May I ask about the reason behind this?

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

It increases hosting costs and alters the organic /c/all

[-] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago

Would there be a way to enable it but prevent the local version that retrieves communities from being able to do that, so we could share our communities with other servers without getting the servers from all other instances. I did make an issue for this in their github, but it might be a while before that happens.

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

sure. Ping me if they allow it

[-] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

What happens if you enable the instance and add a bot account for it but ban the bot account it is using (possibly silently through DB query so it doesn't appear in modlog) would lemmy-federate immediately change the instance status to disabled imediately or would it still continue to allow it to work but just give errors when trying to federate external communities to here?

[-] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

I am really not in the mood for experimenting like this.

[-] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

Ok good point, it is a pretty hacky solution.
