  • Thanks for the assistance, @iso@lemy.lol.

    My new server uses a new domain. I do still have the old data (in fact, the old server is still up - that’s where I’m posting this from).

    I installed both Lemmy servers via Docker. It would be nice if I could rsync my account data (including post/comment history) from the old server to the new server, but I’m now wondering if my changing domains would make the old account not work at all in the new server.





  • What about an approach where there’s a website to facilitate people donating to FOSS project, and all that website needs is a list of possible recipients of the FOSS project (e.g., app developers, libraries it uses). When I want to donate I go to this website and say “I want to donate to Lemmy”, and it shows me “Lemmy has these possible recipients: X, Y, …”. When I say “I want to donate $10” the website asks “should we distribute this evenly among all Lemmy recipients?” (which might be the default) or I have the option of unchecking some recipients or or assigning some recipients a higher percentage of my donation.











  • I want to flash my vac with Valetudo - my goal is to run-only, no cloud. But I read through Valetudo’s instructions and it’s too scary for me. I don’t think I have the skills to solder a board together and I barely understand all the steps. I can follow instructions, but there’s one point where they say something like “do these few steps within 180 seconds or you may brick your vacuum” - that’s too much risk for a ~$1000 vacuum. I didn’t upgrade the firmware on my vac, so maybe someday the process will be slightly easier and I’ll take the risk.
