Sounds good, figured it couldn’t hurt to ask

What about it I want to find the most populated community for a given search term, across the lemmiverse?

Stick with it, sounds like you’ve got a system that works for you

Caddy takes almost all of the nginx boilerplate and handles it for you.

If you’re doing something simple in nginx, it’s far simpler with Caddy.

The real takeaway here is that we are all bad at storing the kind of knowledge you’ll find in a troubleshooting post.

Perhaps there can be a Lemmy instance that scrapes and mirrors troubleshooting posts across other instances.

1800 symbols per second is the benchmark for shortwave data transmission.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACTOR

Not sure exactly how useful that would be, but the latency is low: 0.01 seconds to cross the width of the USA.

A round trip packet from NY to SF takes 0.05 seconds, a fifth of the speed. Fibre is quick, but not as quick as radio.

There’s about 1400 bytes usable in a TCP packet, versus the 1800 symbols per second over shortwave. Lots of TCP packets can be exchanged per second.

I don’t see the value proposition.

You’ll need to take it back in to the store and show a manager.

Why do so many repeat this falsehood? There is no concept of “moving to a new instance” for a user. This is not like old phpBB forums. Your account works everywhere.

It’s almost like it wasn’t Reddit running jokes into the ground - it was people
