I’m just this guy, y’know?

In your interwebs, janitorializing things up and keeping the porns online.

  • thoughts here, quite simple:

    Crypt has a point but I’d like to bring some details.

    1: while quokka.au chose to not join us in the flotilla, they still share many similar takes and values with us. We have reasons to trust many of them, and anarchy is about mutual support of each other.

    2: any single user level action has little bearing on whether the quokka.au community on a whole is trusted. If there were systemic activity with admins knowing and ignoring, or condoning, then trust would break down.

    3: communities have control over their own rules of conduct. So does the server. If you violate these, even accidentally, there can be consequences. You can appeal these, but if the mods and or admins believe there still remains an issue, then so do the consequences.

    Directly put, your own actions and consequences have little to do with quokka.au . If you want the flotilla to specifically take any actions related to our relation with a fellow server, regardless if they are a part of the flotilla, that would need governance involvement and related vote. Bringing up that kind of issue over a single user ban for a bad attempt at a joke gone wrong is not appropriate avenue for this.


  • As an addition to db0’s points here, I would be utilizing any/all information about this to test/deploy onto the anarchist.nexus site as well. I try to help out where I can with the div0 systems, and db0 has nudged my thoughts in the correct directions more than a few times.

    More to the point, while most of my psql knowledge is 18~ years old, I do have some experience working with clusters of them (including the EnterpriseDB variants). I would be more than happy to work at adapting the commands and lessons-learned you might have into basics for db0 and I to hammer into proper ansible.

    And add my own “Thank you!” to the pile. Any and all information you feel up for providing would be considered a wealth.



  • Just to note, the dev has been really responsive to help any issues I’ve experienced. Xylight has been great.

    If you’ve had bugs, have you thought about asking about them or trying to help solve the issue? Photon is obviously under rapid development, and it’s also pointed at moving targets… Lemmy and piefed both are rapidly changing.

    I hate AI gen code as well, but I don’t think that’s related to things with photon.







  • Seeing most of the negative comments here noting bare metal etc.

    Moving to the AIO build solved literally every issue I had with the single exception being the colabora office stuff.

    For the image stuff, basic file, download etc… been great.

    The Android app gives me grief, but I suspect that’s my janky Samsung phone killing it’s permissions.

    Considering they only officially support the AIO, it’s worth trying that out before passing full judgement. It has flaws, for sure, but it’s immensely complex and the AIO nullifies many of the variables that they can’t otherwise account for easily.
