this doesn’t work effectively, too many lemmynsfw posts aren’t tagging as nsfw, and wind up in the all feed.

oof, this comic hurts so bad it’s funny.
your first hurdle is installing a lemmy server locally. this is a mission on it’s own, and I can be of zero assistance here.
your second hurdle is enabling port forwarding and making that server accessible from the internet. I’m going to assume you know how to do the 2nd. port foward dot com if you don’t.
your third hurdle will be setting up dynamic dns. again, lots of choices here, and different tiers of service/support. I’m assuming this is enough to point you in the right direction, and your home router likely has built in support for a few providers.
I recommend tackling these hurdles in order, but they don’t have to be done in order.
lamenters
this is the most redditish comment I’ve seen so far.
remains to be seen if that’s a good thing or not, but I did chuckle over the familiar joke
you realize you can still view the communities without logging in, and decide whether you vibe with it.
also, I noticed quite a few instances had pinned posts introducing the instance to new people and telling them about what the instance stood for.
hol’ up, comparing their reading comprehension to that of a carrot is an unfair insult to the average carrot.
and how exactly is the comparison? is it one carrot per person, or can a single carrot out-comprehend the whole lot?
multitasking. look and post
I guess you’re not actually meant to use it?
but that would drive me nuts
this is a good way of describing it. it’s been so many years since the early internet, that I didn’t even recognize it why the vibes felt familiar. but now that you mentioned it, yes, it’s exactly the early internet vibes. and I didn’t even realize I was missing them. I’ll be sticking around too
I think the corollary in lemmy world is, if your instance admin won’t support your needs, then you simply start your own instance that you can run as you see fit.
a little more work and learning curve involved, but much more resilient in the long run
law of averages: everywhere there’s large numbers of people, we’re bound to run into people problems
but I’m optimistic that this community will help to self moderate to weed out the bad actors. I’m also hopeful the toxic cesspool will self congregate in their own instances, and leave this one alone.
agreed. what I like about lemmy is the federated community run aspect of it. it will be much harder for corporate overlords to infiltrate and corrupt, as there isn’t a central organization/entity they can buy to gain control. or, that’s the theory anyway.
I make cold brew coffee for enjoyment at home, and savor every drop.
At work, the coffee just isn’t the same.
Do I miss my cold brew while I’m in the office? damn straight.
Do I still get enjoyment from ready access to plenty of free mediocre coffee? damn straight. It’s not amazing coffee, but it’s fresh ground arabica bean, decent roast. If I’m honest about it, it’s plenty good enough, and definitely beats having to go for a 5 minute walk to pay $6-8 for a cup of mediocre coffee.
