“We” don’t exist, or rather “we” don’t know what makes us “us”, except for what we do know. Consciousness isn’t fully understood.

Yep

Nope

My point still stands.

Not all of them are! I could contribute to the code base right now and I don’t have an instance.

1 contributor’s opinion and the existence of one community does not an argument make.

the devs don’t care about laws, if you want to put it so broadly, because the devs aren’t the ones who would get in trouble here, anyway. instance owners would likely catch the most trouble, especially because you can also add your own gdpr compliance if you want to.

also most devs aren’t facebook. most devs don’t really care too much about tracking users. the commercial sector on the other hand…

I’m sorry, but I think we’ve fallen victim to Poe’s Law here. Fret not, I understand the concept well, I was just cosplaying as someone who did not, laregly out of frustration for mankind’s dependency on centralized services.

But then how will I know which instance is the real one and not the impostor? What if I join an itailian instance, will I be the impasta?

I don’t even know man this shit is so confusing. I used to just comment and upvote when I saw shit I liked but now how will I know if the shit I liked came from one server or another. This is just madness we can’t keep treating people this way!

And you know the first thing devs do when they start writing code? They look up laws drafted by non technical people to ensure they are fully in compliance. The priority of lemmy all this time has been GDPR compliance, the fact that the app looks and functions similar to reddit is an afterthought.

Can it run crysis?

Lemmy was created before GDPR.

Volunteers probably have not implemented GDPR and may not, or might.

Do you have a favorite server brand or motherboard you like to use in the data center?

Why is this so hard? UPS tech had been around for a while and I still can’t find linux drivers to support the cyberpower one I have.

You need a wifi router. Connect the wan to your network. One mac, wan doesn’t know about your devices.

Sure… this was just said to simplify what is technically possible. Should you? No maybe not, for multiple reasons. Can you, technically? Yes absolutely. I don’t know what’s the limit but I know that if you have to ask here on lemmy, you might not be anywhere near that limit. Unless you are the go daddy.

Tl;dr: you can add millions of sites to a single IP if you want. Very common in commercial hosting as well.

+1 for nginx, although there has been some concern because nginx is developed by a group of russians though it is open source and appears to still be widely used. If this worries you, look into traefik.

Otherwise does your ProxMox setup run docker containers? If so you can use NginxProxyManager which has a web gui for configuring your virtual hosts.

At a high level what you need is this:

• all domains routed to your host (or home if self hosting) IP.
• that IP needs to have a reverse proxy server like traefik or nginx listening on port 80 and port 443 if you want ssl/tls.
• your app servers which run lemmy, nextcloud, etc can be anywhere on your network where your reverse proxy can access. You’ll need to create vhosts for each. The server uses the Host header to determine which IP to reverse proxy to, eithe lemmy.moorefam.net or nextcloud.moorefam.net
• the reverse proxy will get the content from lemmy or nextcloud and serve it via that IP and port.
• ensure your home router is port forwarded on 80 (and 443 if you want ssl/tls) if you want to access these instances from the public internet but beware, you might want to add a firewall in-between if you aren’t confident in your router’s firewall.

Edit: y’all don’t have jobs? I’m not saying it works, I am saying they do it to stay employed.
