  • This is the solution to your problem

    Change your config to mount the data directory to /var/lib/postgresql instead of /var/lib/postgresql/data

    My advice though, if your debugging skills are primarily comprised of asking AI for help, you’re in for a bit of a learning curve. The software is absolutely amazing (I’ve been running an instance since 2023), but weird things pop up and because this is so niche quick google searches are very limited and you gotta be willing to dive into github issues (this for example, I’ve also had to do it for pictrs to debug something a while ago).

    Don’t feel discouraged though, this is probably the most rewarding thing I host (more than plex, immich, or any of the other “mainstream” things people talk about)

    Editing to add, i know this is the fix because I had to reinstall lemmy from the ground up (long story) a few weeks ago and had the same issue :)











  • Okay yes this makes sense. Although, honestly i think I’d prefer the AP method of doing it because BlueSky sends ALL content to all nodes, so it’s MUCH less cost effective to join with a private server.

    I run my own lemmy instance, so i know the data volume since 2023 has been probably like a terabyte or so. But, with BlueSky I’d have to account for the data volume of all users on the platform as a whole, bringing the data volume way up to tens of terabytes (a guess based almost entirely on nothing).

    So it really boils down to yes I agree that AP has problems with data accessibility, but I’d prefer that over unnecessary data redundancy


  • … but at least the rest of their system is actually substantially more decentralized architecturally than AP is.

    In the blog post you linked, neither the author or myself came to your conclusion:

    However, I stand by my assertions that Bluesky is not meaningfully decentralized and that it is certainly not federated according to any technical definition of federation we have had in a decentralized social network context previously. To claim that Bluesky is decentralized or federated in its current form moves the goalposts of both of those terms, which I find unacceptable.

    The blurry image appears to depict an animal, and based on the suggested search results, it could potentially be a ferret, hamster, bobcat, cougar, or red fox. Given the shape and coloring, it most closely resembles a ferret.

    Im gonna go ahead and say: absolutely no idea that picture is blurry as hell
