Like choose your-own-ending novels and BASH? What would you do if you suddenly had ssh access to someone else's server? This is a really fun corner of the net. Excellent resource/trainer/time-waster. When I talk to people from the DIY linux/selfhosting/FOSS communities, many folks haven't heard of it.

What other cool stuff do you know about? Think it sucks and want to tell me why?

Note: I am not at all associated with this project - just think it's a valuable stop on the good 'ole internet.

I have been trying out various lemmy apps for android and have come across an annoying quirk. If I make a post using one lemmy app (liftoff) it does not appear in my profile on another lemmy app (Jerboa). Same seems to be true for comments and subscriptions.

I am not sure if this is the expected behavior. Maybe I am missing something or misunderstanding how my profile's data is stored.

My intuition says that if I am logged into the same server with the same user my profile should be the same, regardless of the app I am using. Is this not the case? If so, why not?

Thanks for your insight in advance!

The Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska Fairbanks is predicting a geomagnetic storm for Wednesday and Thursday of this week (July 12th & 13th). Strong northern lights may be visible between 10 PM and 2 AM in parts of the northern US, especially from points of high elevation, clear views of the northern horizon and low light polution.
