Two that are local to me:
@borebore@lemmy.world does an admirable job with these two. I try to chime in when I can, but am mostly busy with the communities I am running elsewhere.
I think that user donations are easier when an instance has a good focus. There are some other instances I can think of where the donation model has been enough to cover things. In addition to feddit.dk and beehaw, an instance I use most of the time, ani.social, is more than covered by donations last I checked. It looks like @hitagi@ani.social even took away the donate link in the sidebar. Never mind, I am just blind. I didn’t notice the little Ko-fi badge at the bottom. I was looking for a text link.
There is a lot of collaboration between the different instance admins in this regard. The lemmy.world admins have a matrix room that is chock full of other instance admins where they share bots that they find to help do things like find similar posters and set up filters to block things like spammy urls. The nice thing about it all is that I am not an admin, but because it is a public room, anybody can sit in there and see the discussion in real time. Compare that to corporate social media like reddit or facebook where there is zero transparency.
This is what I do. I have a VPS that handles all the 443 traffic and then proxies it back to my home server on the correct port. I also just serve some things directly from the VPS since I have it already. It also works well to have a second box for things like uptime monitoring.
Yeah, spoiler tags are the one big feature that is missing. There are also some minor things on the moderation side that aren’t there. For example, admin accounts don’t have a full list of options in the moderation menu.
One recent example from a game that I ran is that my players caused a dust explosion using flour. I had to do some quick googling to figure out how big that might be to best gauge the damage (turns out it can be pretty big), but I awarded inspiration for the creativity (despite getting caught up in the blast themselves). This was also a bit of irony since the people they were attacking were assassins that ran a bakery as cover.
Sorry for not being clear. I was referring to the discussion threads created by @rikka@ani.social in the anime community. So far, she has been creating discussion threads for the episodes in the general community (episode 4 link for reference). In the past, I have disabled these posts for certain shows if there is a dedicated community to the show that wants to run their own discussion posts (!dungeonmeshi@ani.social did this for instance).
Note if it wasn’t clear: I am a mod of the anime community and the maintainer of the rikka bot.
Feel free to make a promo post over in !anime@ani.social as well. Good luck with things! I don’t want to switch it up partway through the season, but if there is ever a season 2 and you want to run your own episode threads instead of the bot-created ones, let me know.
Some good answers in here already. It boils down to a couple points for me:
Intel confirmed on reddit that oxidation did impact some chips.
More than one thing can be wrong at the same time, so everybody can be right!
I didn’t have a VPS with them, but long ago I had a couple domains through them. One of them had an issue with the auto-renewal and I never got a notification of any kind, only finding out when they had taken ownership of the domain, advertising it for sale. Then they wanted some way, way higher amount of money for me to buy it back. So, I don’t have any domains with them any more.
This was years and years ago though, so they might be better now.
Everybody’s pager went off in celebration!
I use Sonarr, but it does mess up sometimes for shows even when you mark it as an anime to use absolute numbering. It most often happens with older shows that have lots of OVAs that are sometimes listed as episodes and sometimes listed as specials, depending on the database. So, if you are having Sonarr manage your downloads, then it can grab the wrong episode if its database (I think TVDB) and the release (usually using MAL numbering) disagree.
I don’t have a solution for you, but I will be watching this thread. Currently, I use Sonarr for library organization, but it doesn’t always work well with anime due to title differences and differences between how seasons/specials are numbered in different databases. So, Shoko was on my radar to try out at some point since it uses anidb.
I used to have my docker updates done automatically. However, as the services I used to run just for myself have started to be used by other people (family, friends), I am less tolerant of having things break. So, instead of something like watchtower, I run diun these days. I have it set up to ping me in a discord channel when a docker update is available. Then, I can actually perform the update when I have time and attention to troubleshoot any issues that may come up.
This community used to be much more active, but there was a large exodus of the most active users after some far-reaching admin interventions (like this one) that saw a mod get removed from this community and the episode discussion bot unable to post here any longer. A lot of the activity has moved to a different instance/community. The reason people aren’t linking it directly is because admins have previously removed any comments/posts that link to it (including over two months of the pinned weekly discussion threads). It shows up on lemmy community browsers like lemmy-explorer though.
This lines up with my experience. I have nextcloud and wordpress on two different vps’s and just checked their ram usage.
Caveat to the above is that nextcloud is installed bare metal rather than docker and I have both nextcloud and wordpress set up to use object storage as the media back end.
edit: To add to this OP, the reason we are only talking about ram numbers is that the cpu usage for these applications (with primarily only a single user) is pretty much zero most of the time, so you aren’t going to be limited by the single core machine.
Also, depending on your use case (large amount of data on nextcloud or large media files in wordpress), you might run out of disk space pretty quickly. In those cases, you should consider using object storage as your nextcloud or wordpress media backends as it is cheaper than block storage (there are plugins/tutorials to configure object storage and Linode offers it).
My isp doesn’t support ipv6 in my area (Verizon). They claim to be in the process of rolling it out, but it’s been years that they have been saying that, so idk. At least they don’t use CGNAT, so it isn’t a huge deal for me after I set up dynamic DNS.
I have hosted a wordpress site on my unraid box before, but ended up moving it to a VPS instead. I ended up moving it primarily because a VPS is just going to have more uptime since I end up tinkering around with my homelab too often. So, any service that I expect other people to use, I often end up moving it to a VPS (mostly wikis for different things). The one exception to that is anything related to media delivery (plex, jellyfin, *arr stack), because I don’t want to make that as publicly accessible and it needs close integration with the storage array in unraid.
