The best distiction i’ve heard is that social media follows people (twitter, youtube, mastodon, etc… whereas lemmy, reddit, etc… follow topics. They’re more like news feeds with a comment section.

I’m gonna deal with your ignorant ass in just one comment because i’m capable of coherent thought.
First of all, you’ve never been to a Kentucky corn field so fuck right off with that. Your deafened city ears don’t know what quiet actually is. Paris is a city. Even if people are tip-toeing around and whispering, it’s going to be louder than any rural area just by pure scale of humanity moving around. But people don’t do that, do they? No, they drag their screeching offspring to the store, or drunkenly yell at each other on the street in front of a bar, or repair a sidewalk or 5 with jackhammers and cement mixers.
Junkies? Who said anything about junkies? If you’re referring to the urine smell, look no further than the rampant liquor establishments infesting cities and fueling wall-pisses in alleys nearby.
Humans used to exclusively exist in small rural tribes, it’s cities that are an unnatural concentration of people that only began as a central place for people to come, get rid of shit they don’t need, get some shit they need and leave as fast as possible to not be mugged, kidnapped, raped, or murdered.
The food produced in rural areas? Again, that’s all you think is going on there? I work in tech and so do most of my neighbors. Get a better perspective. You’re the reason I hate cities.
I’m done here, feel free to have your last, ignorant comment. I’ll never know

Local coal plant? Is that all you think exists in rural areas? Maybe you fuckcars idiots need to do a bit more research before spouting your city-centric views all over the place. Some people just don’t want to be a sardines in you urine-smelling concrete noise factory.

This. I HATE cities. Crammed up against everyone else, smells, noises 🤮. I’m over 10 miles to the nearest grocery store and all these fuckcars weirdos will do some fucking mental gymnastics to explain a RURAL life without cars. I don’t think a single one of them has been anywhere where there is actual forest between cities/towns. They live in a city with great public transit so that must be how it is everywhere, right?

Imagine working in an office where you need to do that? Who says to themselves, “gee, i didn’t bring that thing so it must be OK for me to have some”? These kinds of tactics don’t come from nowhere

Not sure if this will work for you but I keep my homelab documentation in markdown, mainly edited with Obsidian. I wanted an easy way to access via web and found Perlite. I have this pointed at a notes folder on my server which is auto-updated with Syncthing. No fuss, just works

- Comment on Advice wanted: Making reliable private cloud backups with Kopia. 2 months ago:
I’m using Kopia with S3 for about 400GB and it runs a bit less than $4/mo. If you set up a .storageconfig file it will allow you to set a storage level based on the file names. Kopia conveniently makes the less frequently accessed files begin with “p” so you can set them to the “infrequently accessed” level while files that are accessed more often stay in standard storage:
{ "blobOptions": [ { "prefix": "p", "storageClass": "STANDARD_IA" }, { "storageClass": "STANDARD" } ] }

- Comment on How To: Automate version update for your selfhosted Docker containers with Gitea, Renovate, and Komodo 3 months ago:
I use it in a homelab, I don’t need to apply prod/team/high-availability solutions to my Audiobookshelf or Mealie servers. If an upgrade goes wrong, I’ll restore from backup. Honestly, in the handful of years I’ve been doing this, only one upgrade of an Immich container caused me trouble and I just needed to change something in the compose file and that was it.
I get using these strategies if you’re hosting something important or just want to play with new shiny stuff but, in my humble opinion, any extra effort or innovating in a homelab should be spent on backups. It’s all fun and games until your data goes poof!
