That is pretty awesome. I didn’t realize you could run battle.net on Linux. Last time I looked into this though was right before D2:R came out and was trying to get it working on Pop!_OS. Can’t remember much, but I do remember not really being able to get it to work.
Glad to see that things have progressed. I don’t own a steam deck, but I’m definitely filing this away as something that is possible to do. However, I’m really enjoying D4 on my xbox. :)
I am enjoying it as well! I just hit Act 5. Was pretty deliberate about doing side quests for the first two acts, but then started just steam-rolling the main questline so that I could get through the storymode. I’m doing this as a sorc, and haven’t felt and extreme desire to check out the other classes yet, but am excited to do so. However, I feel like there is so much left to do on my main character! I would say I’m about 15-20 hours in so far, just hit level 41 or so.
I have the Synology 923+. I went down a research rabbit hole that spanned far too long. First the DIY route, then the prebuilt. Then I dove really deep into the arguments with the 923+ about it having AMD instead of Intel, so it being bad for plex transcoding. All in all, I love it and have been super happy with it. I watch plex off of it just fine, but all of my devices are new. Some of the synology stuff has been a bit wonky with Docker, but otherwise it is working great and I’m very happy with my purchase. I havent needed to upgrade the RAM yet or get a cache drive, but I like that I can do upgrades in the future as I stuff more processes on there, as well as upgrade the drives (currently have 2) as I need more space.
Have a link to that hacker news discussion by any chance? Would love to read through that.
Why not hop onto https://libera.chat/ ? If you’re into self-hosting, check out https://thelounge.chat/ so that way you don’t miss any goings-on while not logged in.
I like it so far. It is pretty convoluted how you subscribe to communities across instances. I figured it out eventually, but I am seeing the question pop up all over the place across lemmy.
People say using the Android app makes that easier, but it needs to be solved in the webapp first and foremost.
I also have major concerns about scalability. Folks are calling out for the community to grow, but the servers are already struggling. Lemmy is built ontop of Rust which is an incredibly performant language. Lemmy.world also just migrated to a new, more beefy server. Why are there still scaling issues? I’m naive to the inner-workings of Lemmy, and I’m not saying this in a negative way, I just don’t know enough about the architecture. I am a software engineer though and know a lot of infrastructure and scaling, so these are the types of questions that pop into my head when I see my posts hanging infinitely (but are there on refresh.) Am curious to also know what the long-term storage requirements are for a Lemmy instance. If I were to self-host my own instance for example, what do I expect to need at the 1 month mark? 6 month mark? In terms of storage requirements. How big does the postgres db get?
Overall I am liking the new system and am bullish on Lemmy’s future. As with any sort of hyper growth, there are pains and I’m it’ll all get sorted with time. Nothing like a good forcing function such as a reddit exodus to show a light on any weak spots :)
Same thing is happening to me. I am assuming it has to do with the amount of traffic the instance is getting. Wonder what can be done to help alleviate the issue as it’s been happening to me since I joined a few days ago.
Anything you do cross-origin will have to be done in a server-like environment instead of in the browser.
You have to search for the community you wish to subscribe to from on your server’s search page. You’ll navigate to it from within your server’s instance and give you the ability to subscribe to it that way.
For example, if you go to the lemmy explorer: https://lemmyverse.net/communities
You’ll note that each entry there has a link to the community, as well as an identity listed below it that you can copy.
Like so: !selfhosted@lemmy.world This is the identifier url to the selfhosted community at lemmy world. If you navigate directly to it: https://lemmy.world/c/selfhosted but you don’t have a lemmy world account, then you’d have to sign in to lemmy.world to subscribe. But if you are on another server, and you search !selfhosted@lemmy.world, you should be taken to it from within your instance and you can subscribe from there.
The same url would also be: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
So if you get the identifier of any community, you can navigate to it from within lemmy.world with that url scheme: https://lemmy.world/c/<identifier> (minus the exclamation point).
Example of navigating to a non-lemmyworld community from lemmy world: https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
Hope that helps.
@[email protected] - it has to do with CORS (says in the error message) - You generally can’t make cross-origin requests in the browser unless it is explicitly allowed. This is purely a browser limitation, which is why it works in your node environment. But if you open the console on any random website and try to call fetch() to that API, it’s going to fail on any site other than lemmy.world.
Looking at the data collection categories in the ios app store for Threads is terrifying. Similarly, mastodon collects nothing. General population doesn’t seem to care though given the number of signups that Threads has received in the last few days. People are happy to give their information away.
