!lightnovels@ani.social for light novels from Japan

!aoblightnovel@bookwormstory.social for Ascendance of a Bookworm specifically (which just recently published its final volume).

Two that are local to me:

• !boston@lemmy.world
• !massachusetts@lemmy.world

@borebore@lemmy.world does an admirable job with these two. I try to chime in when I can, but am mostly busy with the communities I am running elsewhere.

There is a lot of collaboration between the different instance admins in this regard. The lemmy.world admins have a matrix room that is chock full of other instance admins where they share bots that they find to help do things like find similar posters and set up filters to block things like spammy urls. The nice thing about it all is that I am not an admin, but because it is a public room, anybody can sit in there and see the discussion in real time. Compare that to corporate social media like reddit or facebook where there is zero transparency.

This is what I do. I have a VPS that handles all the 443 traffic and then proxies it back to my home server on the correct port. I also just serve some things directly from the VPS since I have it already. It also works well to have a second box for things like uptime monitoring.

Yeah, spoiler tags are the one big feature that is missing. There are also some minor things on the moderation side that aren’t there. For example, admin accounts don’t have a full list of options in the moderation menu.

Thanks for the clarification!

I am guessing a large portion of those might be inactive accounts as well. When the reddit exodus was at its peak, there were definite issues with the way 2FA worked in lemmy. I think it got reset at one point due to changes made in subsequent lemmy versions and users had to re-enable it.

One recent example from a game that I ran is that my players caused a dust explosion using flour. I had to do some quick googling to figure out how big that might be to best gauge the damage (turns out it can be pretty big), but I awarded inspiration for the creativity (despite getting caught up in the blast themselves). This was also a bit of irony since the people they were attacking were assassins that ran a bakery as cover.

Feel free to make a promo post over in !anime@ani.social as well. Good luck with things! I don’t want to switch it up partway through the season, but if there is ever a season 2 and you want to run your own episode threads instead of the bot-created ones, let me know.

Some good answers in here already. It boils down to a couple points for me:

• Back when I started selfhosting, it was either nginx or apache, and I found nginx better and easier to set up
• All the nginx knowledge I learned years ago still works just the same as it did back then, so why potentially mess things up by switching if it all still works
• Basically every project has an example nginx config for reference, that can’t be said about other proxies
• It is easier to find support online for edge cases that might pop up with nginx due to the ubiquity of its use and years of history

Intel confirmed on reddit that oxidation did impact some chips.

More than one thing can be wrong at the same time, so everybody can be right!

Conmebol and Concacaf games are full of gamesmanship and this game had remarkably little of it compared to other games from this same Copa. I mean, did you watch Colombia’s second half against Uruguay? Every team does it when they can. Also, it is very clear from the shot of Messi’s incredibly swollen ankle during extra time that he actually fucked it up. Acting doesn’t make your ankle look like that.

I mean, congrats on finding content outside your bubble then. If you don’t like it, use the tools available to you.

Where the NSFW line is drawn varies depending on the moderator and community. If there are communities that are either not moderated actively enough or draw that line too far to one side for your taste, then don’t subscribe or block those communities. Those tools exist there for a reason.

I would not consider the post you have linked to as NSFW. I also think that the NSFW tag has evolved over time, so perhaps my definition of NSFW just doesn’t line up with what today’s standard should be. There are plenty of anime characters in very popular shows that have a character design similar to that. There are big billboards of them some places to promote the show. Just because it might be NSFW in your work environment/region, does not mean it is everywhere.

Everybody’s pager went off in celebration!

I use Sonarr, but it does mess up sometimes for shows even when you mark it as an anime to use absolute numbering. It most often happens with older shows that have lots of OVAs that are sometimes listed as episodes and sometimes listed as specials, depending on the database. So, if you are having Sonarr manage your downloads, then it can grab the wrong episode if it’s database (I think TVDB) and the release (usually using MAL numbering) disagree.

I don’t have a solution for you, but I will be watching this thread. Currently, I use Sonarr for library organization, but it doesn’t always work well with anime due to title differences and differences between how seasons/specials are numbered in different databases. So, Shoko was on my radar to try out at some point since it uses anidb.

I used to have my docker updates done automatically. However, as the services I used to run just for myself have started to be used by other people (family, friends), I am less tolerant of having things break. So, instead of something like watchtower, I run diun these days. I have it set up to ping me in a discord channel when a docker update is available. Then, I can actually perform the update when I have time and attention to troubleshoot any issues that may come up.

As for whether he forgives Morrissey, Carroll said: “I guess I would have to say yes in the spirit of forgiveness, reluctantly. But if I had to be a smartass, I’d say her apology holds about as much water as my canvas bag.”

Fantastic.

The only Spanish-speaking community I know of is !anime_es@ani.social but it is new and only has a couple posts. I just know of it because I mod other communities on the instance. I recognize you as somebody that has been active in the anime/manga communities elsewhere, so I thought you might find it relevant.
