Y’all should try it! I loved seeing it popping on other instances’ /instances page, and seeing it polling other communities. Also changing the background in my theme was lit.
Lemmy’s hosting documentation is a bit rough around the edges, especially the ARM situation (and its contemporary solution), so I had some extra tinkering to do. No shade at all yeah? I appreciate every bit of their work and I jotted down some points that I need to consolidate into a documentation PR soon.
Anyway, I feel like the extra on our usernames should be worn as a badge of honor you feel me? ;)
Hey there! Welcome to the joy of running your own instance, I built a tool to automatically discover and add communities to your local instance :)
https://github.com/lflare/lemmy-subscriber-bot
For support requests, I’ve created !lsbsupport@lemmy.world as well.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !lsbsupport@lemmy.world
Frankly I’m not sure what it does haha. What are the “best communities”? Which communities? Also what does it actually do, subscribes all users on your instance to those “best communities”?
It’s actually a tool I wrote that makes use of a bot account on your own instance to add and/or subscribe to communities throughout the fediverse. I defined “best” communities as simply communities above a certain level of activity threshold (omitting ghost/unpopular communities). It doesn’t subscribe all users on your instance to the communities, but it does make such that your All feed would be vastly more populated with content.
This looks great for my one person instance! Any way to unsub and block any unwanted communities?
