I think it’s a bit heavy handed and there are legit reasons why one wouldn’t want it, but it certainly repelled the right type of potential Lemmy admins

It used to be hard coded, not even in the database but in Lemmy code itself and couldn’t be changed without forking. If I read the issue https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/622 correct, this has changed though.

Does it not have that slur filter still? Not sure that’s really the reason people use lemmy

Same :( admittedly I never tried, but it’s the one thing everyone recommends against.

Thanks. That’s unfortunate. But everyone running an instance will know about blocked instances sooner or later and can get them if the list of they like.

The blocklist subscription would be super useful on mastodon but I think the threadiverse is a bit different. However I’m on my single user instance and am subscribed to communities on other instances only, so I already get a pre-moderated experience even if I don’t block any instances myself so far so is experience doesn’t match that of the admin of an instance with more users and own communities.

Where is that code? Does it block some specific instances or how does it work?

Thanks! It’s way nicer to look at than five little computers with loads of cables on the dresser.

Maybe they’ll use the Forgejo code as most of it should be compatible, but yes, I won’t wait for it.

Upon reading further, I’m pretty convinced this is AI Slop. Much is this doesn’t make any sense.

This is a lot of additional work in the first place.

Also some things here don’t seem to add up. How much of this was written by AI?

Not so much for easier access (though it’s great) but because the mini pc’s case can’t fit that many drives.

I already had it from a former desktop case where I put it in the 5,25" bay and then found the neat rackmount enclosure STL

Exactly, it has a single MOLEX and four SATA ports on the backside. The box underneath has it’s lid removed so the cables can go though.

Thanks! Installed everything software before and then just put it in and turned it on.

Adding a p2p layer to git really seems interesting. Gotta check out their desktop

Indeed, not sure I want do host sourcehut though. Looks like a complicated setup and only supports Alpine but not (Docker) containers.

Do it! It’s great fun.

Interesting, I’ll check that one as well!

Yeah I guess git via mail would solve some of those problems. Maybe I’d just need to get used to it, but generally I prefer a web ui for those things, including Issue tracking etc - I know there’s tools for that via email and there’s good reasons to use it, but somehow it doesn’t feel right to me. I’ll give Drew’s articles another look, thanks for posting.

Oh no! I’ll tear it down again
