Y’all should try it! I loved seeing it popping on other instances’ /instances page, and seeing it polling other communities. Also changing the background in my theme was lit.
Lemmy’s hosting documentation is a bit rough around the edges, especially the ARM situation (and its contemporary solution), so I had some extra tinkering to do. No shade at all yeah? I appreciate every bit of their work and I jotted down some points that I need to consolidate into a documentation PR soon.
Anyway, I feel like the extra on our usernames should be worn as a badge of honor you feel me? ;)
Interesting, thank you. If a user uploads something illegal to another instance, and a mod takes it down, does that deletion then also reliably propagate to my instance?
Unfortunately, I can’t say for sure if your instance will reliably get the deletion requests and process them. I did a small test to see how deletion works a few days ago and it doesn’t seem to propagate reliably as the deleted comment is still up in another instances, even now, though other instance such as lemmy.world seem to delete it. Not sure where it went wrong either, could either a bug, instances get overloaded and didn’t receive activitypub message correctly, or OP’s instance was improperly configured, but I sure hope it’s just an isolated incident.
Like I said before, If this still worries you, you can just delete older image files in the pictrs directory every few months to make sure you don’t host user-uploaded files for too long.
Thank you! That’s very useful in considerations.
