Again, that seems to be a you problem. There are plenty of places on Lemmy that have very recognizable regular posters and comenters you can socially interact with 🤷

Eh? It is what I say that matters. You have a very strange world view if you think just because there is only a pseudonym attached it doesn’t matter. And of course conversing with others is social 🙄

Yes, and that is what connecting people means… talking to each other. NOT promoting oneself in a one-to-many fashion like what social media is about. Anonymous or not is of lesser relevance but it works either way.

There is a difference between the two terms as well, so thanks for supporting my point /s

That seems to be a you problem.

Of course it is an pseudonymous online forum, so it isn’t about making friends in real-life, but you can make plenty of connections with people online via it.

I didn’t say TV is social media, I said social media is like TV is the sense that it is a one-to-many medium. I could have also used TikTok to explain the difference, but people here are clearly confused about the destinction and it would have been less clear.

pseudonymous forum where its not common for users to become friends or know each other

This isn’t really true for regular commenters. There are even feuds between specific users and so on. I agree though that there are constant attempts by some people who try to make Lemmy more like social media by advocating for dissolving the destinction between communities and instances to turn Lemmy into a dumb meme and news posting app for entertainment purposes.

Mostly bad, but running AI models on Vulkan surprisingly isn’t any worse than ROCm, so there is little point in using that it seems.

First of all I would recommend you use Piefed instead. Easier to setup and maintain.

But I am not sure exactly what you want that Lemmy/Piefed instance for? As an internal forum of sorts? That can work, but is not really what it was developed for and there are better (non-federated) options.

If you want it to be an actually federated instance then the Rasberry will not cut it. The desktop might, if it has some good SSD storage for the database.

For in game voice-chat the simplest option is a Mumble server. Very low resource use and runs great on a Rasberry like yours. Otherwise you could also try setting up a Movim instance. It has text chat and voice/video calls that should reasonably work as a Discord substitute for small groups. It is also quite low resource and should run fine on that Rasberry.

Every definition is “made up” 🙄

What I explained is how these terms are commonly used on the fediverse.

And anyways, if “social media” and “social network” is the same, why have two different terms for it?

Social networking is about connecting people, which Lemmy as a forum does. You could argue that the function of Lemmy as a link aggregator is more social media like, but I doubt people would consider an RSS feed reader to be social media either.

Social media is like TV, a one-to-many medium, usually with some sort of feed curation to promote certain topics.

No, it is a social network. That’s different from social media.

In my experience using AI for that replaces legthy documentation searches with reading lengthy AI output that turns out to be full of halucinations. Net time saved usually negative.

As others have mentioned there are ssh keys and generally you can and should of course use a password manager.

However there is IMHO a huge blindspot of people using only SSH keys to long in, and that is that your day-to-day dev PC is actually more likely to be compromised in some way than the server that only runs specific, relatively well defined applications and overall just has less attack surface. And the ssh keys on your dev PC are really not very securely stored and thus quite easily compromised.

Hardware keys are of course a better solution, but I would personally recommend to use a 2FA solution that prevents access even when one factor (ssh keys or passwords) is compromised.

What makes you think Movim is a “hosted service”? You can easily self-host it and many people do: https://github.com/movim/movim

The developers of Movim are also hosting a public instance, yes, but the official on-boarding page lists it as only one among many others. A bit like how the Lemmy devs also host an instance.

Revolt/Stout on the other hand is rather a “hosted service”, as they are openly discouraging people to self-host it and make it intentionally harder to do so.

Ovh should work.

You could also try https://movim.eu/

It is XMPP based and supports a/v group calls and screen sharing. Voice channels like Discord are planned.

That depends on the usage, see: https://www.xda-developers.com/smr-hdds-are-fine-for-your-nas-until-you-try-to-resilver/

If you keep this issue in mind and avoid resilvering / balancing they can work just fine in a media storage NAS.

They use a lot less power too. For small home NAS they are really an often overlooked option.
