I was surprised to read that a country in South Europe mainly used Viber. I’m not European but I’m almost definite that WhatsApp has the largest market share for chat apps in all of Europe. Maybe Telegram coming a close second

I don’t see why it shouldn’t work. I have my ISP router set to pass through mode and my mikrotik router behind it

Aha. Understood. Thank you for the clarification

What kind of safety reasons rule out OSS for you?

Neat piece of software we use at the office to provide remote support to customers.

So I’m trying to get a local instance of Lemmy 0.18 running on my LAN with docker. I don’t have a domain name (yet) and would not be able host lemmy as a Proxmox Container primarily to get acquainted with hosting and administering an instance before eventually hosting an instance on a VPS. Has anyone successful hosted lemmy on their LAN? How did you go about setting it up?

So I come from a 3rd world country where many people lack the basics. Covid-19 and remote work opened a lot of opportunities for local tech folks such that $15/hr immediately made you very comfortable here. This was after years of earning about $2k/yr from local employers. A lot of young locals are now rushing into tech with the aim of earning such “mouth watering” pay. However many are not willing to put in the work. They literally want you to plan a learning path for them, teach them, get a job for them and in some cases work that job for them

Are you able to host without a domain name? Looking to spin up one to see what the install process feels like before I spin up a production instance

Looks like a good tool as it mentions editing your comment before deleting them. Not sure if I recall correctly but I believe I heard Michael Bazzell in one of his podcasts mention something about editing your posts first (and allowing sometime for them to “bake in”) before deleting the edited posts

lowercase with no special characters and you are good to go
