I don't mind so much, as it encourages me to practise my German. However, it could get troublesome if lots of other languages start popping up. Mastodon has a language filter option, I guess such a feature will eventually make its way to kbin bzw lemmy...

What was r/TIHI? I can't get to the reddit site anymore, but even if I could, it probably wouldn't be very enlightening if the sub is already deleted...

Same with my pixel 2, it was stuck back on android 11, LineageOS has given it a new lease of life.

Demonetisation in Youtube is not just about payment, it is also about the "reach" of your video -- demonetised videos get pushed to the bottom by "the algorithm".

In the Lemmy documentation they clearly say they don't want to support any reverse proxy except nginx, so not really much point posting it to any "official" community.

From those graphs, memory usage is very low. Most of it is being used for disk caching, which is what linux does with memory it has no other use for (may as well use it for something).

I tend to use Brave search, since it is the default in by browser. Sometimes I don't get good results, and will go to another search engine. Google has become a bit unreliable though, since they started integrating these "ChatGPT"-style responses. These AI systems often seem to just make stuff up, and you really can't rely on the information at all.

I tried installing Lemmy on my server, but it runs Apache HTTPD on the web port, and I couldn't work out how to integrate Lemmy with that web server. From what I can tell from the NGINX sample config, you need to be able to specify rewrite rules based on the HTTP request method rather than on just the URL, and I just couldn't see how to do that with Apache...
I think I'll try installing kbin instead, this seems to have a more standard setup, similar to Mastodon.
