My first post back on Sync… I’ve never felt this type of euphoric sensation for an app before

That is AWESOME! Congrats!
Yes that’s right, portainer stacks equate to compose… I might be wrong, but I remember reading somewhere a while back that they (and other container orchestration tools) were not permitted to reference “Docker” or its products (including compose) due to legal and licensing restrictions by Docker.
Not to the level of Reddit, but Docker has its fair share of questionable business decisions.
Portainer is definitely useful (I use it on a daily basis), but probably a bad place to start…
I started with the following progression:
Good luck in your journey!
I took a look at Dashy, I think I see the confusion. If you are looking at this article, then yes they mention Code Server, but that’s purely in the context of using Dashy in a non-docker context. But to be honest, any text editor works.
But I think that’s a red herring. That in itself has nothing to do with docker.
What you’ll need to do, once you understand the fundamentals of running docker, pull images, start a container based on an imagine, is to expose a docker volume that points to /public/conf.yaml
. A docker volume ensures that the file or directory it’s mapped to in the container is available and persists outside of the container. This allows you to persist files and directories without losing them once the container stops or restarts.
Once the volume is exposed, then you can use your favorite text editor to update the dashy config file. Code Server is fine, powerful, but overkill.
But first, try getting familiar with pulling, starting stopping docker images using the cli. Gotta start there first before tinkering with docker parameters like volumes.
Lemmy is following the same maturity curve as any social media platform. The early days of Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, or any platform you can think of had major growth and development early on, and were fine.
Delaying to avoid hypothetical misunderstanding will simply lead to missed opportunity to get users to the app, and delayed maturity of the app.
Let people join, make their decision to leave/stay. As the platform grows, users will as well.
That first one could also probably be spun into an nsync reference lol
I’m currently juggling 3 different apps to find one that works best for me (Jerboa, Connect, wefwef.app via Hermit, and excitedly waiting for Sync for Lemmy). I’m also experimenting with setting up my own instance to learn more about federation.
I love the principle/values of Lemmy, what it stands for, being part of a growing platform and learning about it. But when I’m just looking for mindless time-wasting content to kill boredom, I find myself missing the quality of experience, the communities, the level of engagement and diversity content from Reddit. Many subreddits I used to follow for “dumb” content simply don’t exist on Lemmy, and I doubt it will gain inertia on Lemmy.
As a sync user I support this and would like to see it lol
