On kbin, OP replies are indicated by a dotted red line next to their post. There are other colors for replies as well but I'm not sure what dictates them.

Guess it's time to migrate my VM servers to a different distro entirely.

Based on the prices the Apollo dev was slinging around, I highly doubt Relay will be around even after this guy "figures out" what to charge his users. Unless he's aiming for whales with deep pockets I give it maybe 3-6 months before he also folds. Reddit can also easily move the goal post on Relay, which is inevitable, because Reddit wants people to use thier app.

As a two week user, this is my experience. There is also no way to collapse comments... Yet. Someone has wonderfully coded it and shared with the devs but it has yet to be pushed to the main branch yet.

With the huge influx of users this past month they are in triage mode. Just please be patient with the product, Reddit was new at one point too!

I've been pondering this very reason. It's compelling for me to make my own instance so I have my own little slice of fediverse to call my own, and have access to the greater picture of it too.

Really hoping to see this instance pop up soon

Because everyone is subbed to it at account creation and I doubt that's one most people would ever leave.

Don't worry, the improvements between 5 and 6 are not really needed for home connections which is why I skipped it. WiFi 6 improvements were mainly around channel selection and wider bands to allow larger amounts of clients to connect to a single AP in a large campus environment. It could help at home, but only if you have a LOT of devices connected or have a lot of interference.

When 90% of the comments are sarcastic or jokes like Reddit I can't call that discussion or engaging. It's noise just like all of the reposts and duplicate content.

I've been on kbin (the fediverse) for over a week and I feel the opposite of your sentiment. The content was lacking but discussion is A+. Content is definitely picking up steam now, but I don't want the fediverse to be a reddit clone.

Because feddit.de is a main Lemmy instance and there are some popular instances over there. I'd love to block feddit.de out right but they have the main starwarsmemes and some other good practical magazines, so I'm stuck unsubbing from them on a one-by-one basis.

I use Fedora and really like it. The only drawback for me is using podman instead of docker as some containers like mailcow don't have that 1:1 parity that podman boasts, but I do have roughly 30-40 containers running in podman without issues.

For Mailcow and Kasm I spun up dedicated Debian or Ubuntu servers to serve them up.

Thanks for the thorough explanation - What does this mean for Fedora OS? Isn't that maintained by Redhat as well? I have a fairly large fedora server base in my homelab and hope I don't need to redeploy it all!
