Agreed. Beyond just no ads because I go out of my way to block them on my network and devices its nice to browse new and be able to have discussions instead seeing complete shit posts or popular ones with 1,000+ replies already.

No way. I don't care if Lemmy doesn't succeed I'm never going to tolerate that shit. I stopped using Twitter when they killed third party apps and forced even more ads into their piece of shit app.
Kbin enabled cloud flare protection that will hinder federation. It’s likely preventing lemmy instances from pulling feeds from Kbin. Each lemmy instance pulls its own data, instead of haveing data pushed to it.
This is the announce from Kbin: https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/10415/kbin-quick-update
Kbin enabled Cloudflare bot detection to fend off an ongoing attack and that is preventing Lemmy instances from pulling their content.
I've blocked every ad I've ever seen on the app. I haven't used it in a while and I doubt I'll ever go back now.
The only thing left that I use it for is getting alerts about live police chases so I can tune in. Ill leave that going until those people move to other platforms.
Try sending an email through there. That will tell you right away if you mail server will allow to you use the from address you want to. The message that it responds with is the message that lemmy, or whatever relay, would be logging anyways.
DKIM and SPF will prevent delivery but should not prevent the initial send. Make sure you sending sending an email to yourself first because local email severs check the recipient against their own database before going to the public internet. DKIM and SPF may not matter there so you could at least see delivery.
This most likely won’t end well as you will hit outbound limits and throttling as well as delivery issues getting into inbox if you get deliveries at all to the major providers. Managing email sucks. The only real way to accomplish this is using third parties that specialize in it. You still have to manage bounce rates and spam flags or they will shut you down too.
Did you try sending an email through OpenSSL using shell commands? Lemmy has no test email function so you need to be sure your credentials are correct.
It’s not uncommon for email servers to prevent you from sending as someone else even if you authenticate against your primary account. When using the OpenSSL shell commands it should end a successful test send with 250 ok queued or display an error like from not owned by primary account.
Make sure you can connect from your server to ensure firewall rules, passwords, and SSL type are accurate.
openssl s_client -connect smtp.fastmail.com:465 -tls smtp
More directions here as you need to encode your username and password to login from the shell: https://www.stevenrombauts.be/2018/12/test-smtp-with-telnet-or-openssl/
You can replace postfix:25 with smtp.fastmail.com:465 in the config. Verify that you need tls and not starttls as the ssl type.
If this is docker then you need to ensure the container can route to their server and port. I don’t use docker so I can’t help you there but I think it’s something about internal vs external bridge.
You would have to run raw database commands to clear followed communities’ posts. It would be possible with some experimenting. The only local media associated with non-local communities is generated thumbnails so those would have to identified and purged from pict-rs.
I run opnsense, which has a long a storied history with pfsense and in my opinion is better, on a VM in proxmox.
I have a cluster of three servers and I can live migrate the VMs around to do maintenance. It gets backed up to proxmox backup server so restoring from a bad upgrade, which I’ve never had happen, or severe experimentation, which happens frequently, is simple.
It’s also one less device to power on, and pay for. My cluster is running regardless and every watt less helps keep my wife happy.
I’ve never had any issues that I could attribute to it being run in a VM. It does my 1gbe fiber and a dozen vlans with no issues.
Let's all post there on our remaining accounts and get banned.
