Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Ye I wanted to try and see how it works, running on a spare Rpi4

this is my display name - |💀| in my instance

that's interesting, are you using ansible/docker (is docker available for rpi?) to run lemmy like what monyet.cc does?

[–] aerir@lemmy.aerir.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm using docker, don't see why ansible wouldn't work either. You have to install official docker separately into Raspbian.

Yunohost is another option but I think they are using older Lemmy version

thanks for letting me know. I looked on lemmy's docker hub page, but the latest arm build I could find is one of 0.17.3, does this mean you compiled lemmy from source on your rpi4?

I ended up with this. Quick summary what I did

  • SSD boot setup
  • Install official docker / docker compose
  • Run Lemmy-Easy-Deploy
  • sort out TLS issue with my other reverse proxy
  • sort out cloudflare API

Browse all the 'communities' to get the feeds, otherwise it wouldn't pull the contents over

okay, thank you. how is lemmy's memory usage so far?

also, forgive me for being so curious, have you tried hosting any other fediverse-related software?

I've been following the epicyon project, but wow, the install instructions is really of the "do everything manually" type…so it is hard to get enough motivation to follow them through.

theone: have you subscribed to any new communities on monyet.cc since changing your display name?

maybe you could try that, subscribing to a new community here (or maybe, unsubscribing then resubscribing, if you've already subscribed to all the available communities). I think doing this will cause a resync of your profile.
