I will try to move this server from digital ocean to hetzner tomorrow I will start after I wake up so probably around 8am UTC. I hope it doesn't take too long but it could take a couple of hours. I am not very experienced with this.

When I drink yerba mate I often spill it accidentally because I hit the bombilla. Are there any spill proof options out there?

We also removed all custom emojis :( Sorry guys for making you all log in again. As far as I can tell no admin was affected by the hack. Still some users could be compromised. This is why we regenerated the JWT secret so all sessions are invalidated. Also we try to avoid the web client for now.

Hey Lemmy 😊 users! I just discovered 🚀 something amazing: Lemmy now supports 😍 emotes! 🥳 We can express ourselves 💁‍♂️ in a whole new way. And guess what? You can suggest 🤔 cool emotes right in the comments! 💬 Share your ideas below 😄 and let's make Lemmy even more fun 😃 and expressive. Happy emoting, everyone! 😊🎉🎨💡🤩🔥🌟🥰💪🚀😎✨🙌💬🎉 

I am banning alot of bot accounts from my instance right now but not every person i banned shows up in the modlog/ it seems like logs i have previously seen in the mod logs are not showing up anymore. Here is an Image from modlogs like an hour ago and i cannot see it in the log anymore. 

I wrote a small script to ban the bots that joined. I am pretty sure most of the accounts are actual bots but there is still a small chance i might ban someone unjustified.

McAfee's claiming there ain't a single worm in sight, but I'm feeling mighty perplexed here. Now, what in tarnation can I possibly do to tackle this conundrum? Should I reckon it's high time to pick up the phone and dial Microsoft support for some good ol' fashioned assistance? By golly, I sure hope they've got the answer to my technological pickle!

Ich hoffe das ist hier der richtige Ort zum Fragen :) Ich habe keine Repo oder sonst etwas gefunden.

2 vCPUs Regular Intel 4 GB RAM 80 GB SSD 4 TB Networking EDIT: Since a lot of people asked me: If you want to financially support the instance you can buy me a coffee on [ko-fi](https://ko-fi.com/soerenmichaels) Please only do it if you can afford it.

Hello everyone, I want to answer a couple of frequently asked questions (and some made up frequently asked questions). Also you can ask questions in the comments. **How did you come up with the server name?** A couple of weeks ago I nerd sniped this domain from someone who is also on this instance and did nothing with it until the whole reddit thing happened and I found lemmy. I noticed user names have the instance domain behind them. I suddenly knew what I had to do. **How much does the domain cost?** 19$ a year. **How much does the server cost?** ~~Currently it's a 7$ a month digital ocean droplet. How is the performance? Should we upgrade? Didn't expect to have over 100 Members already.~~ I upgraded to a 24$ a month droplet. To experiement if some issues go away with it. **Where is the server located?** Currently in Frankfurt, Germany. **What distro does the server use?** Ubuntu 22.10 **Who has access do the server and database?** Currently only me. **Can you edit the database?** Yes, but maybe it would lead to unexpected bugs. I don't know. I will not do it unless I have to. **Will you edit comments?** No. **Will you charge 3rd party apps? ** No. **Is it complicated to host your own instance?** Not at all. The lemmy devs provide an easy to use ansible script. I never used ansible before and now I want to use it for more stuff. You should have some experience with Linux and hosting. But don't be afraid if you have no experience to host your instance. You can probably Google and ask yourself though the setup. **How can I support the server?** You can support the server by being active in the community. You can post, create communities, comment and engage. While I also like to lurk a lot it's important to create content. It's the most valuable thing (without content nobody will visit sites like reddit). Also it probably doesn't hurt to promote the server a bit. Regarding Server cost if the server cost doesn't increase substantially I don't need any financial support. I will try keep the instance alive as long as people are using it. **Should I create my own community?** Yes (as long as it is legal and doesn't harm other people) **Does my community have to be related to Arch Linux?** No, I think it's even better if it's not related. Having some random community with @iusearchlinux.fyi at the end seems amusing to me. **I don't see rules. Is everything allowed?** Nope if we see something that is not okay we will not hesitate to ban someone or remove content. Everyone including the admins and mods should strive for keeping this a nice place for everyone. Everyone should feel welcome. If you argue with someone try to interpret what the person said in the most charitable way. In short try to make a positive impact in this community. We enabled that everyone can see the mod logs with the names of the mod for transparency. If you don't like how we moderate you can write us or make a post but please keep in mind we cannot make everyone happy and if you want have different moderation you can always create an account on a different instance. We have banned in total only one person and have not blocked a single other instance. We are not on the search to find small things we can use as excuse to ban anyone we don't like but we will act on reports. Please use the report button it's better to report someone just in case. We will not blindly ban someone. My other 2 Admins are great people and I trust them 100 percent to have a good judgement. **What's your favorite editor?** neovim with lazyvim **What's your Terminal?** Wezterm **What's your desktop environment?** AwesomeWM **What's your favorite programming language?** Rust (but I am not very productive with it) Sorry for my bad english. EDIT: **How can I financially support the server?** You can buy me a coffee on [ko-fi](https://ko-fi.com/soerenmichaels)

It seems like they are down for a longer time now. How will they recover? Does longer down mean they will have to do more catching up with other instances? Can I get updates somewhere?

Me and 2 other People I am aware of selected not every language they speak. If it's not possible via the UI, can I change it in the database?

When I go on [!python@lemmy.ml](https://lemmy.ml/c/python) I can see many more posts.

Someone did a mistake while creating his account and i want to delete the account from database so he can create a new account with the same username

I would love to know who joined and if i should make registering more restrictive in case bots join.
