Active enough considering the scale of the community.

Hey! Didn’t even know you could ping people. I’m not super active but I’m here every so often. What’s up?

I’m all for defederating Hexbear, but lemmy.ml is absolutely huge compared to Hexbear. To motivate the community to do that you’d need quite a bit of proof. Or at least something rather compelling. Do you have any proof of what you’re referring to?

Do you mean duplicate posts? You’re on the everything all, which shows the same posts but from each account you’re signed in too.

I leaned no one on Lemmy are as helpful as they seem. Nor as nice… I gave up on trying to run my own instance… My life is too busy and hard to find time for this anyway…

There are actually quite a few vegan communities. Try this website!

If you do decide to make them community I’d be happy to join. Or even help moderate it with you. I’m quite comfortable with Lemmy and moderate 5 communities with between my accounts. I also used to be a vegan and would like to get back there.

Not quite. From what I’ve read, I think only text is downloaded, pictures and other media are just links. So not everything needs to be downloaded. Also to trigger/maintain this connection (federation) at least one person from your instance needs to be subscribed.

But you won’t find this community in the search bar because you’re not federated yet. So to trigger the initial federation you’ll need to search for the full URL, the entire URL including “https://” (https://lemdro.id/c/android) It won’t show up at first, so try again in a few seconds, and sometimes you’ll need to try a lot of times if the instances are running slowly. But eventually your instance will find the other community on the other instance.

But at the time I’m writing this lemdro.id is apparently offline so it won’t work at all right now.

Cool. I was just looking it up. Very neat. I don’t have the first clue how to go about it but I’ll let the little raspberry try overnight. We’ll see what happens.

I have no idea what cross compiling is but I’m open to trying it.

I’m thinking that I should probably let it ride. Maybe it’ll work. It’s not like I’ve got better plans for that little computer.

I wish I could. The whole computer is completely frozen! Just the mouse will nudge a little very very slowly. I don’t think I can get another terminal open. And yes it’s very slow hardware. It’s a raspberry pi 3.

Why are you going to move? Genuinely curious.

I still don’t understand what it is or why is there…
