When I press the back button in the browser it remembers my scroll position. Does that work for you?
If you aren't attached to Ansible, I suggest using Docker to host Lemmy. I found it's instructions, using Docker Compose, to be quite straight forward.
My other 2 cents is that hosting on Windows isn't worth the hassle and there will be a lot less to debug on Ubuntu if you're already comfortable with it.
+1 to using a subdomain. You’ll probably have a much better time even if you get a path working.
I’ve been trying to debug this as well so it’s not just you.
Theoretically I agree with you, but I finally broke down and changed mine due to some instability and I haven’t had a problem since.
It’s completely possible that’s just placebo since my understanding of how it should work says you are right.
Probably not the answer you want to hear but I’ve been using this site to browse communities: https://lemmyverse.net/communities
Unfortunately you still need to copy-paste their addresses to add them to your instance.
Thanks! I’ve been looking for this.
I'm struggling with this same thing. I normally use the URL in the "link" icon for lack of a better option but it's a pain to get back to that post on my instance if I want to comment.
I started with my self-hosted Mastodon instance but quickly realized that just added noise. Self-hosting Lemmy was pretty simple and now I run both.
The resource needs for a small Lemmy instance are quite low and practically nothing compared to my Mastodon instance.
I use https://lemmyverse.net/communities
It has an option to sort by "subscribers". According to that this community is the 25th largest.
You’re missing out ;-)
