Yes they are, but you have my profile on your server and you do not need to leave the server to view my profile...
@ user @ lemmy.instance
should link to https:// mbin.instance/u/@[email protected]
and not to https:// lemmy.instance/u/user

Actually that behaviour is very annoying to other platforms. Mbin for example can only link to the lemmy server this user is on and no longer the local profile of that user.
Example:
@ user @ lemmy.instance
gets converted to [@ user @ lemmy.instance](https:// lemmy.instance/u/user
so on mbin this does not open the profile of the user on the local server, but instead links the lemmy instance, so you leave your instance to view the profile.
(spaces included so this won't get converted to mentions, etc)
iodéOS here and I can't find it on my phone either (yes I looked at the system apps)
Well I did set one up today and the mails land in the spam folder for GMX, GMail and Microsoft (@live.de), although I set up SPF, rDNS, and DKIM. I have to take a look at how to setup DMARC, beacause my domain hoster doesn't allow free configuration of the TXT entries, you have to use templates and there isn't one for DMARC
I wouldnt say that. however setting uo your own mail server is a lot of work, as you have to abide a lot of "security" rules (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, rDNS). Additionally some hosters reuire you to apply for port 25 to be unblocked (e.g. hetzner)
General Kenobi, you are a bold one
yeah I got matrix only for that.
Yeah I am :-)
If you have issues, feel free to @ me. I don't have a answer for everything, but I know of a couple of common mistakes.
And the matrix chat is relatively active
The main problem is that you have to do a lot learning by doing, because there are not clear instructions...
Other than the setup I'd say there is no clear drawback to hosting it yourself. I guess its even better than hosting something like mastodon yourself, because the content you want to get is already grouped in communities and you don't have the annoyingly long discovery phase one has when starting a mastodon server
The main problems are the headaches you get while setting it up. Kbin is not in a state where you can just run a script and it works.
yeah exactly. On mbin it works this way and lemmy inserting the link breaks that. But it does it for communities in the community description sometime as well, though I don't know if it is just a user "error" or a lemmy error
