Hehe thanks! Not 100% decided yet but since it’s running on my homeserver and not some VPS I guess I won’t open except for friends maybe.

That sounds good! If Pixelfed or similar implemented that, it could be sufficient. A new fedi service starting from scratch would lack the existing pool of resources since federation only happens when a post gets posted/boosted but after some time it could actually be useful.

I use it to find inspiration for projects where I only have a rough idea of what I would like to build/make. Usually it’s enough to create a new board, enter a vague search term, add some things that seem fitting to your vague idea and then Pinterest does a really good job in suggesting things similar to the results you already added. It narrows down the search results by what you save.

Idk about you but I use pinterest to find inspo for all kinds of things. For that to work, the posts need extensive hashtagging/indexing that goes beyond the occasional hashtag on Mastodon I think. In Pinterest, I really want their Algorithm to find the stuff I don’t know yet I’m looking for. If that kind of search existed, we wouldn’t need a specific Pinterest clone I guess - maybe a topic-board thing on Pixelfed would be enough if the indexing would be sufficient.

If you find one, keep up updated! It’s one of the things where you really need a critical mass already for it to be useful so it’s hard to kick off.

You’ll only see posts from Mastodon on Lemmy if they get posted on a Lemmy community I think

I’ve been using Mastodon for eight years and got involved with hosting a small instance for some years now. Also running a Bookwyrm instance and, since a few days, this Lemmy instance which will remain single user most likely.
I have several more Mastodon accounts I’m switching between and inactive Pixelfed, GoToSocial and Friendica accounts.

Do you think so? I thought it’s comparedly straightforward
- Comment on Starting to self host 2 days ago:
You can set up Bookstack and then use it to document everything you’re going to set up later!
- Comment on What host names do you use? 2 days ago:
Hardware hosts usually get a mix of hardware description and main use, e.g. en old Esprimo with Proxmox is esprimox. Virtual hosts are garden themed - auth server is mycel, monitoring will be called canopy once I move it, VM with lots of docker stuff is garden etc.
- Comment on Sharing posts across instances 3 days ago:
It’s not instance agnostic because the thread lives on the instance of the author. But links in this format: lemm.ee/post/57428587 can be put in the search field on any instance and will return the proper post.

Sure! It’s a Lenovo m910q tiny. Mine has an i7-6700 and 32GB RAM but Lemmy runs in a VM with 4 cores and 8 GB RAM which should be plenty, it’s not even using half that RAM. Disk Space seems to be the limiting factor after a while since it keeps copies of all remote threads and comments but that can be cleaned up too.
Found some threads online on resource usage beforehand like this: lemmy.ml/post/440678

Hell yeah, you just sent the first notification to my instance :)

Just set up Lemmy! I wonder if this gets through
