https://lemmy.dbzer0.com for generative ai, neurodivergence, and anarchism and copylefts

I think it's ok to have both. Eventually this will be implemented which will make this moot: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

But also, I think lemmy won't be able to handle the load well and they won't hear my advice on how to prepare, so I think it's better I take responsibility for the community I've been nurturing for the past 10 years, myself

I don't have something to compare it to. As it's still empty, performance is still good.

I was doing that as well, but it wasn't the problem. The problem was apparently caused by a too-long site name

I managed to get it to run. I checked in postgresql logs and it seems it was caused by trying to add into site. Apparently the site name cannot be more than 20 chars but this is mentioned nowhere in the documentation.

And when this happens, it causes this cascade of somehow trying to recreate the admin again and again, which is a red herring after all.

Worse. Restarting the container, seems to keep recreating that user 3 times again. Then always fails with

lemmy_1     | Error: LemmyError { message: None, inner: value too long for type character varying(20), context: "SpanTrace" }

I dropped the contraints manually to test, and it indeed seems to create the admin account 3 times for some reason!

@dessalines@lemmy.ml can a user from a different instance be a mod in a community in lemmy.ml? Would be nice to have mod access from elsewhere in case lemmy.ml goes down.

Years of prime advice was nuked when you erased everything but the last 6 months of history.

You realize the alternative was to lose the subreddit to the reddit admins, yes?

If I am going to redirect all the sizable community of reddit /r/piracy to a safe haven, I feel I have a responsibility to make sure that the destination is well run. The only way I can do that is to be a mod.
