I hate how often Discord is mentioned as a viable alternative, how that is even remotely close to a link-aggregator fora is beyond me.
The IT related self-reliance communities on reddit should make their own instance. Data hoarder, self hosted, privacy, piracy, etc. The only unfortunate thing is the entire internet is run on advertising so it’s challenging to fund instances. Normalize paying for services you use.
It is kinda like r/selfhosted that stays on reddit even though it is turning to shit when the communities are about being able to manage a server and a shit ton of atorage
At the last exodus, some created https://selfhosted.forum/, but it’s pretty dead. You are right. It is tragically comical.
[email protected] is the most active community
There’s dozens of us!
Some are luckily mentioning Lemmy, but so many is talking about Discord haha
Huh… Blocked. Reddit’s getting snitty. They’re feeling threatened.
It’s been like that for a while
I wonder if linking to rxddit.com would fix it. Does that site even work still?
It’s unfortunate that the active c/datahoarder is on lemmy.ml, because it always derails the conversation into the tankie question. But it’s honestly on brand for there to be multiple c/datahoarder communities on Lemmy. You know, for backup and redundancy purposes 😏
Shout out to @[email protected] for getting some activity going on [email protected].
