Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I am subscribing but they all show pending subscription, which I read doesn't matter usually but a first time setup private instance I was thinking that it might.
Probably want to avoid federation with lemmy.ml right now.
I avoided lemmy.ml since I read some controversy with admins of it, does having it not blocked but not pulling from it cause any issues?
I am not 100% sure since I am still getting up to speed on all this, but I belive there is a bug where its not updating correctly and that is causing posts/votes/mods to not federate correctly. You could block and test to see if that helps.
Yes, it does matter. Unfortunately you will have to try canceling (just tap or click the pending button) and subbing several times until you get lucky and it finally works.
This is sort of a catch 22, because the issue is caused by the server being under load (and some bad code or database queries likely needing to be fixed / optimized / refactored), and clicking the buttons is adding to that load, contributing to the problem.
TL;DR pending subscriptions are not subbed, so do not federate.
On my personal instance, this hasn't been the case. I'm fully federated with communities that show "subscription pending". I get comment updates with sub-minute delays. I think this is sometimes just a cosmetic issue.
It does. I'm having that issue a lot with lemmy.ml communities, think it's an issue on their end.
Try communities on other instances.
I avoided lemny.ml, doing lemmy.world and a few others and those won't subscribe after retrying a bunch either.
