I’d say the science is clear: humans don’t understand what makes them sick and they don’t understand why they get better. We value our own anectdotal evidence over actual research almost every time, and we keep making the wrong conclusions. I’d go so far as to say that you can’t be “on board” with both science and with your own conclusions based on anectdotal evidence. It’s one or the other.
Set up a domain with a main site that has links to your different services, then set up reverse proxies so you can put certificates on them and serve them all on port 443. If your WAN IP is relatively static then you can forward ports 80 and 443 to your server and use your own domain, if not you can use something like FreeDNS. Or skip the last bit if you don’t need WAN access.
I wish I could see the comments on this thread I made. Not sure what’s wrong with lemmy, it’s been like this since I started the thread two days ago. When I click the thread I just see my original post, no comments. Same result if I open the thread from the Selfhosted channel. If I view my own profile history and click the context button, the site just loads forever and never shows anything.
Still nothing.
Refreshing the browser does nothing, is there something else that I need to refresh?
Not for me, I see no posts on that link.
Well I’m on lemmy.world, which I understand to be the largest instance, so I assumed someone would probably have subscribed before me.
https://lemmy.world/c/trendingcommunities@feddit.nl still comes up empty for me, but on https://feddit.nl/c/trendingcommunities I can see three posts.
I’m also struggling to load some of the comments on this thread, they just keep loading endlessly. If lemmy.world needs to run some sort of process to fetch posts from federated instances then maybe these two issues indicate that the server is overloaded at the moment? Sorry for my cluelessness, I’m new to the fediverse.
It’s coming up as empty for me too, how can that be if others from this instance have already subscribed? Does my subscription need to be approved or something?
You may be right that bluetooth now works out of the box on Linux, but that certainly wasn’t the case a year or two ago. And I know for a fact that touchscreens are still hit and miss. I don’t know what improvements have been made to the Network Manager, but I suspect it’s still pretty bare-bones.
It’s possible that things have changed drastically very recently, but I suspect the Linux situation is still mostly the same as before: it’s great for web servers, but frustrating - bordering on unusable - for regular users.
Well, if your needs are very simple then I can certainly understand why you’d be happy with Linux. But regular users need for things like Bluetooth, touchscreens and VPNs to “just work”. I could spend three hours getting my bluetooth microphone to work on Linux or I can just use Windows. The decision is simple.
Is Debian so much better than Ubuntu or Mint? I tried both of those recently and had no end of troubles. Bluetooth was terrible, the Network Manager didn’t appear to support MFA or split tunnelling, etc.
Or just select local domain login.
