  • I was about to ask why this is better than the docker installation, but I see step one is to install docker haha.

    I’ve been running the docker container for a long time, it works very well. It is a bit more complicated if you try and use extensions that require seperatw containers (like setting up collabora), but that can be done as well. It’s just more complicated.

    I do remember needing to know how to access the internal terminal a few times, but I don’t remember why. If I think of it I’ll come back and add instructions.

    Edit: It’s to be able to run occ commands:

    Sudo docker exec -u www-data nextcloud-app php occ “Command goes here”

    Sudo docker exec -u www-data nextcloud-app php occ files:scan --all




  • I’m not sure what you are trying to say, we shouldn’t be concerned because this problem already happened?

    A lot niche older vehicle information, if it wasn’t hosted on Reddit, was often on forums funded by enthusiasts, which eventually ran out of money and no longer exist. This is exactly the problem that I’m concerned about. Particularly so if a certain community balloons in popularity and an admin nukes it to keep the server costs under control for the other members.


  • I agree, but I also have serious concerns about this being the replacement strategy. It could be because of my ignorance of how this all works though. Like many of you, I am new and here because of the reddexodus.

    These servers are going to cost money, and for many of them the money will run out. Is there a function to preserve the collective content of an entire server once it goes dark? I know that you can migrate your own account to another server, but what happens to everything Google has indexed at Lemmy.world if the worst happens? Is it all just dead links? What if many of the users do not migrate? Is it just gone?

    I am concerned that in the current state we are setting up to burn everything that loses a couple admins or becomes too old to economically host.
