Selfhosted

39435 readers

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Testing in live environment?! This is selfhosted, why the hell not πŸ˜‚

I'm going to test comment deletion too and see if it'll work. I deleted my comments in another community and to my surprise, not only it's not deleted in other instances, it got a bunch of upvotes and replies too! Going to delete this comment and see what happen.

You may need to edit with [deleted by user] and wait some time then delete or something as a workaround. Interesting to know that delete isn’t be all and all.

I'll check again in two hours. @[email protected] in 2 hours.

@redcalcium (dev here) we currently have it set up so @remindme has to be at the start of post, otherwise the bot ignores it πŸ˜„

What if we want the bot to go deeper 😏

WTF it's not deleted in OP's instance: https://feed.timeloop.tv/comment/5896

In my instance it's deleted: https://c.calciumlabs.com/comment/166782

Edit: it's deleted in lemmy.world: https://lemmy.world/comment/862358

That's very strange. Once a post gets federated, can a user not delete it? Can it only be removed with a purge from the instance admin?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It can, but the deletion takes time to sync to all instances I believe

Not sure, may need to check the github repo to see if it's a know bug (or an actual feature).

Pretty sure I saw many deleted comments in my instance over the past few weeks, so surely deletion works, at least for some of them. If not, you can always edit the comment and clear the content to simulate deletion. I just edited this comment and I'll see if the edit shows up in your instance.

edit: yep, edit works

There's this but I'm not sure if it's directly relevant

PS: I can still read your parent comment 5 hours later.

Still there for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

unfortunately you cannot delete it from my brain, least not easially or cheaply....

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Seems to still be here

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Still seeing it on my end.
