Here is mine https://gist.github.com/jeena/6179470a8d616455f30635a5c71f5f64 which had a similar problem with the comments, although I couldn’t post comments on my own instance either.

For me the thing was that I had to add:

map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
    default upgrade;
    ''      close;
}

and

        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;

And also change the nginx in the docker to port 8080 so my normal nginx could keep running on 80 and handle all the ssl certificate stuff.

My setup is:

Browser -> native Nginx -> docker Nginx -> lemmy

How would one instance know that I set up a new instance without a central service?

They’ve been loosing money for 20 years, now they want the IPO so they need to show that they can also make money.

And I’m reading it on /kbin

There is a workaround to groups: https://fedi.tips/how-to-use-groups-on-the-fediverse/

That’s what consulates and embassies are for, no need to have hidden Chinese police in the back of the restaurant.

We have @foosel perhaps she should start the 3d printing one here :D

Oh, and even if they’re annoying, I understand how federation works and that users from lemmygrad could comment there etc. and I can handle the shills, what I was surprised about were the mods on lemmy.ml which started deleting my comments. Doing this, they make it impossible for me to even try to engage in a discussion and show a different point of view to the tankies.

As far as I understood, those were people who had accounts on lemmy.ml, not lemmygrad.ml

Ah I was wondering why so many posts have no up/down votes and where those favourites are coming from. Thanks for the explanation!

Especially the lemmy.ml part was kind of terrible, I got into some weird argument with Tiananmen Square massacre deniers and the mods started deleting my comments, so the whole discussion was meaningless and left me very worried for the future of this corner of the fediverse.

Those country ones, I’m in r/sweden and r/korea

Yes exactly, I call myself very left but the minute I tried /kbin a thread about china from lemmy.ml showed up and there full of Tianomon Square deniers I tried to engage but just after half an hour I was almost done with the whole reddit alternative and was on my way to delete my account.

People are put off of extremist places and don’t want to join them, think they are lost already to the extremists. Both online and in real life.

There is a even easier way, click the scroll wheel which opens it in a new tab.

In the picture and they mentioned it also it says that people in the room will see your face. But in the renderings there PCBs and chips in front of your eyes and nose, so I wonder how people can see you? Is there a screen and they use the same technology on the screen as they use for FaceTime?

Oh I was just listening to a podcast where you were a guest in https://pod.fossified.com/2023/04/05/s01e03.html and I had to lough out loud when they asked you what they could do to bring more women into FOSS or what it was and your response was to not invite them to podcasts only to discuss the topic of women in FOSS :D

To be fair, Julian is not USA’s “own citizen”.

This was kind of a interesting topic, so I copied it over and extended it with some more steps which I remembered on the way into my blog: https://jeena.net/first-exposure-fediverse

I was checking what the definition of Fediverse is, and when I go after the one from the Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse

Then it was when I implemented Pingback to my weblog so it looks like it was 2005.

Later around 2012, I was involved in the Tent protocol which was an alternative to OStatus and build a client for it. But because how bad their handled their community a year or so later I switched to:

Indieweb where I implemented a set of protocols and markup on my website to be interoperable with other websites which implement the same set of protocols and markup like microformats, micropub, webmention, etc. To this day I still am using my own website as the main publishing platform and automatically cross post every note and picture to Mastodon.

Otherwise I joined Mastodon with my own 1 person instance in 2019. And later PeerTube with my own instance for my family in 2020 and today I joined kbin.social just to test it before I decide if I should set up my own instance or not.

[edit:] I forgot that I set up my own Matrix server in 2020

I like Synologies hardware actually but I also would rather run some free software on it. Right now I’m struggling with the Synology Drive app on Linux, it just doesn’t want to run in the background like advertised, and it also crashes on launch because of wayland.
