    There have been a couple of posts somewhat recently asking what can be done to attract new users to the Fediverse. My answer was basically "make it something new people would want to see and stick around for". The crux of that was basically less news, less politics, less rage and more, well, anything else. So, I would like to propose a challenge to all: Let's try that. At least for a week. Sound good? Here's how you can participate: If you're one who posts a lot of news/politics...stop or at least slow down. Post literally anything else. Or try to post less rage-inducing news and try to dig up the good news that's happening. Sorry !upliftingnews@lemmy.world but it's the regular news communities that are flooding the zone with every single bad thing that happens anywhere in the world, so we may be stealing some of your content with this one. Think before posting something. Are you only posting it because you're mad about it and you think other people should be mad about it too? If so, maybe post something else. Is there already similar coverage of that? Chances are, we don't need more of it. If you're a lurker, post something. Add your voice. Refrain from upvoting / booting all the negativity. Yes, it may feel good to upvote for visibility because "people need to know this" but the end result is the feed turning into a list of things to rage about. If you see good/non-rage news, upvote that for visibility. I've seen many posts like that languish with a few tens of upvotes at most while the rage-inducing news gets hundreds of upvotes. Post what makes you happy rather than what you're angry about. Avoid dogpiling on people if they express a different opinion. I'm not saying feed the trolls or pat them on the head, just merely "disengage" or avoid the impulse to virtue dump on them and such. If you have a hobby, share it! There's plenty of hobby communities that would greatly benefit from additional contributors. If you're boring like me, well, there's !Dullsters@dullsters.net or !dull_mens_club@lemmy.world (the latter welcomes all as the name is just a reference to the original) Anything else you can think of to make the homepage/experience feel more welcoming and less like an angry mob (suggestions in the comments are more than welcome). I know not everyone will participate, and that's okay. Simply adding more positivity and posting/boosting less rage can have a positive effect on what shows up on /all which is what potential new users see by default. So, let's try this for a week and see what happens. Who knows? Maybe the established userbase will find it refreshing as well. Who's with me?

    #SelfHosting week 1, phase 4. FINALLY.The main architecture is up and running now. Lemmy, WriteFreely, Castopod, today I'll get WordPress multisite running; my current site on shared hosting, runs a singular website where I created multilingual through "FullSiteEditing" WordPress feature; but it's quite difficult to maintain in long-term so 2 sites with 2 languages will make it better.Now I have upgraded my hosting plan to Hostinger kvm2, and associated my VPS to the huge lifetime 10TB cloud I have, for podcasts. PCloud, through rclone. Next phase will be WordPress, then maybe to point various services to the right domain (plusbrothers.net and not .online). Most passages have been done via command line, and to find the right commands I've used google gemini. Unfortunately for some features, American (big) tech has still been useful. #accessibility #selfhost #activitypub #blog #multilingual #blind #WordPress

    I'm looking for active federated communities on the fediverse where users share tips, tricks, and best practices for using the command line. Something similar to the Arch Linux forums but accessible through the fediverse. I've checked out a few communities like Command Line@lemmy.ml (1.47K subscribers) and Command Line@programming.dev (2.09K subscribers), but they seem to have many subscribers but no active users per month. It feels like Lemmy smothers these niche communities somehow. Does anyone know of other active federated communities or instances where command line enthusiasts gather to share knowledge and help each other out?

    @stefano What exactly are you trying to do when you refer to 'old tech'? Is it for sustainability, saving resources or more like the #permacomputing culture, which most of the time wants to explore what would be possible?My motiviation is mostly 'sustainablity', e.g. using old cheap routers from ebay as #OpenWRT-Devices serving DNS, DHCP. BUT ONLY when they don't consume a lot of energy.This is a stop sign for me: Running old hardware that consumes 3 times more electricity while being 10 times less powerful than a modern device.
