  I’m running nixos Linux on my server and laptop, so its doable. On my tablet ATM, but I’ll follow up with a DM when back at my keyboard

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. I didn’t realize how easy it would be to set up and configure. The hardest part was find the client and then figuring out what file in the client to edit to point to my server.

  Of course I’m an IT guy irl, so setting up servers and such is my day-to-day so that helped.

  I setup a private WOW server at home and am enjoying a druid playthrough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do we need a crawler to load content from other lemmy instances? How are we supposed to federate without one?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Piefed has a couple of different ways to populate a new server. Pulling lemmyverse data and subscribing to comms that way, or scanning a remote Lemmy/mbin/pieces server for comms. You can look at that code if you want inspiration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some instances not load communities properly?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Usually Lemmy/piefed does a pull of the most recent 50 posts when the follow first happens. Then new posts come in over time via federation.

  If you're not getting /any/ new posts it may be that the federation is not working. If some communities gets posts more than others then it's probably a difference in activity levels in the communities.

  This code: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/app/api/alpha

  Its mostly freamon and rimu working on that part. Iirc its meant to be lemmy api compatible, but i think there are some adaptations needed to accomadate the piefed way differences.

  Freamon got a fork of a lemmy app to sort-of work back in september (https://matrix.to/#/!NVUzKiFppMtECaxHQm:matrix.org/$KJqJfus8DVy-B64AC8uWEQ9oiGsRA04AReRF-05nQYA?via=matrix.org&via=tchncs.de&via=jeena.net) so the alpha api stuff has been coming in since then.

  no apps yet. work on an alpha API is in progress though, so soon(tm) hehe

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PieFed, a FOSS Feed Aggregator alternative to Lemmy, but faster⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  not a fork, its its own code base built from scratch.

  Yes. I added that myself a couple months ago 😎
