Wasn't Soylent Green algae based at first?

The orchestral arrangement is just too good. Thanks George Martin.

Would be an interesting idea to fork and do a 'Lemmy Lite' which is just a single-person instance, doesn't host any communities, but lets you join communities/federate with them the same way a full install does.

Oh for sure--I just spun up a new droplet to throw it on. There are Docker instructions as well.

The ansible install on ubuntu wasn't too bad, tbh. I haven't touched anything backend since I installed, and it's been chugging!

That's how I went. Time will tell if it eats storage etc, but so far I'm loving the control I have over who to federate with.

I wonder how that would work if an instance gets abruptly shut down. Maybe each time you make an account you get a 'recovery key' that you can link to your new account on a new instance, thereby taking ownership of your old posts (or at least the ones that got federated out of your old instance).

That's a good idea. Allow communities to choose if they are globally or locally subscribable.

I decided to self-host my own instance for that reason. That way I'm actually totally in control of what I'm seeing. It does make finding new communities less organic, but it's easy enough with the new listing tools. Probably not worth the money if all I ran on my server was Lemmy, but as an added service it's great.

100%! I'm excited to see more growth. The federation between kbin and lemmy is great. I love that it can also federate with anything else using ActivityPub, basically.

100%. It appears to me this new community is already serving the purpose of the old one!
