If you have access to Kanopy they have a few of his films available.

How can I gain some understanding about my lemmy instance? in c/selfhosted

This is the guide I used, it's pretty automatic with ansible.

If you find yourself getting excited about organization, then you're in the right place.

I'm not too worried about it.

It costs me less than $10/mo to run mine and some of that is because I have to pay for an email forwarder until my hosting provider lets me start sending emails, part of that is factoring the cost of the domain name. The actual cloud server costs $5/mo right now.

I created an instance for a specific community (self.fediverse)
submitted 1 week ago by PriorityMotif to c/fediverse

I created [email protected] a few months ago and then started seeing contraversies around moderation policies and federation that just don't apply to the type of content on dull mens club so I decided to make an instance solely to host that community.

[email protected]

I'm not sure if this has happened yet, but I like the idea of having a neutral instance that users can still visit regardless of what happens. There's no user signups, only admin/moderator accounts. Users have to use an account from a federated instance.

I created [email protected] (self.newcommunities)
 

I created the popular [email protected] several months ago.

In the interest of decentralization, I decided to create an independent instance.

The dull mens club community will stay active, but please visit us at the new one.

Thank you all again for creating such a wondetful place,I look forward to seeing the community continue to grow.

I created a Lemmy instance and the future of this community. (self.dull_mens_club)
 

I've created a new Lemmy instance at dullsters.net

When I created this community several months ago I had no aspirations of it becoming much of anything. In a short amount of time it has grown to over 1500 subscribers and is one of the top recommended non-political communities. I am always looking forward to the posts that are shared here, and the unique culture being developed.

I see the importance of the decentralized aspect of the Fediverse. We frequently see drama surrounding moderation and federation policies. None of that applies to the content in this community.

I have no qualms with admins running their site the way they want to and they are often placed in difficult positions. However, this is one of the true places of neutrality on the Fediverse and it should remain that way.

In the few months this community has existed there have been maybe a half dozen moderation actions taken. You have remained, for the most part, very dull, and I thank you for that.

The name of the community should be changed, I hadn't realized that dull men's club was the result of someone else's ideas and work. The new name should represent this community that you all have created and the place it exists, The Fediverse.

The new instance won't have any users except for the purpose of moderation, you will still use your account from a federated instance. I'm still ironing out a few wrinkles with the site, it should be done whenever I get around to it.

In the meantime suggestions for the new name should be made in a top level comment so that they can be voted on.

Thank you all once again for making this community what it is.

How to get email to work? (self.lemmy_support)
 

Do I need to do anything to get emails to send from my lemmy instance? I have the site up and running, but emails won't send. I'm using Digital Ocean as my server provider.

Difference in config.hjson with ansible [Solved] (self.lemmy_support)

Edit: the issue was cloudflare proxy. If you're using cloudflare for dns, turn off proxying if you're using lets encrypt.

I must be doing something wrong, because when i run the playbook I get an unconfigured nginx page at the ip of my server.

The instruction docs for ansible states:

Do not edit anything inside the {{ }} braces.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/blob/main/examples/config.hjson

however that config file points to:

The dullest day is upon us. (self.dull_mens_club)
 

Tomorrow (Saturday) will be the December Solstice. The "shortest" day in the northern hemisphere and "longest" day in the southern hemisphere. Although it will be the day with the least amount of light for many of you, it means that each day after will be brighter. For others each day will be shorter, and thus duller. For places near the equator the change will be negligible throughout the year. Of course if you live near either of Earth's poles you will need to wait a few months to see the change.

I wish you all a very dull and uneventful day.

I always park next to vehicles that are the same model as mine if I can. (self.dull_mens_club)
 

I just like to make other people think there's something maybe a little exciting going on, like an enthusiast meetup or maybe a glitch in the matrix. It gives me a little chuckle.

How would you take a pov video like this without attaching the camera to your body? (lemmy.world)
 

I'm watching this video: https://youtu.be/2VujUm6K-IU

At times he is working with his hands with the camera directly on front of him while using both hands to work. The camera never moves or gets bumped. In one shot he is hitting something with a hammer. Is he just hugging a tripod carefully? Using a boom? I'm scratching my head.

Make sure to visit the real Dull Men's Club website! (dullmensclub.com)
 

This is a tad embarrassing. You see, I thought that I was merely copying a popular Facebook group. I was unaware that Dull Men's Club was an official club. Please give the site a peruse as it is quite a delight!
