I’m gonna jack it up to the highest performance and see if it eats into my first month’s free credit.

I’ve just given the script a go and it seems to have failed

Altough the building timer is still running

Is there somewhere I can access logs to see what happened?

Edit: Managed to screenshot the error prior to it disappearing

Thanks, I’ll check that out if my from-scratch attempt fails. I’m using nginx as a reverse proxy.

I’ve just started a new instance on Oracle Cloud given how good the free tier is.

I’m maxed out on everything free: 4 CPU cores, 24 GB RAM, 200 GB storage.

Do you have any idea what the implications are of changing the block volume performance up from the default balanced to higher performance or UHP? All I can find on pricing is here: https://www.oracle.com/cloud/storage/pricing/

But it doesn’t mention anything about free tier eligibility.

I might try building from scratch again and running pict-rs in a docker container.

That does sound incredibly good for free.

Did you have any issues with pict-rs? Is it indeed included within the lemmy-server binary?

I thought of trying that, but the lemmy container doesn’t have ping/wget/curl, unless there is a way to test this without those tools.

I’m spending much more time here now that I am spending at reddit. I’m hoping for another big influx of users (and therefore content) on July 1.

thanks, it looks good. The biggest plus it that it doesn’t rely on a Debian based system.

Your instance becomes aware of the existence of another instance when just one user subscribes to a community there. From then on it will appear in all.

Is this easier than the Ansible deployment? That was very straight forward if you’re running a system with apt.

You can do this in Lemmy, default the Home Screen to Subscribed. It’s an option for each user, but the instance admin can choose a default. I’m not sure about Kbin.

Is there a github issue for this? I’ll like to follow its progress.

I’ll be very happy when this update gets rolled out.

Talking about bugs, any word on when there will be a fix for the upvote count wildly jumping around on posts?

Can’t you just log in to your Lemmy instance and search the communities by clicking the communities button? You just need to look at “all” instead of “local” communities.

It seems to have settled at ~900 for me.
