  • I checked out your edit and what’s going on is pretty weird. my recommendation (if you don’t wanna just use the native import/export feature and give up on DB dumps) is to (on the new server) create a minimal tandoor docker-compose.yml, run it, do minimal setup, see if it works, and if the fresh container works, check the permissions, then just replicate those perms for your other postgres directory that contains data you actually care about. good luck!



  • you’re probably right about it being a permissions error but also including some relevant logs would be useful (or just stick all of them on pastebin or something and give us a link). could also be a docker misconfiguration considering it’s a different system and I assume they’re not identically set up with Ansible or something similar

    edit: also id personally use tar because I’m not entirely sure zip files preserve linux permissions

    edit again: from 2 seconds of google searches, I think I’m correct about that, so definitely try using tar




  • not sure where you are but in the US I see a lot of cheap used laptops being sold online with broken screens for example or messed up keyboard/touchpad, etc. stuff that would make it awful for use as a laptop but almost entirely unimportant for a server use-case (if the kb/touchpad is dead you can just plug in an external during initial setup/troubleshooting). of course you gotta make sure that it wasn’t damaged in a way that would matter more. ex: if the kb/touchpad are broken due to water damage I’d be wary of issues with other vital parts





  • exactly, leftists online piss me off a lot of the time bc it seems like a lot of them spend 99% of their time on their platform shitting on liberals instead of making use of the common ground to actual do something fucking useful. or don’t. because either way, in the US, no matter how moderate our liberals are, they’re leagues better than our conservatives.


  • but the devs of these popular reddit apps likely have recycled a tonnn of their reddit app’s code into the Lemmy app and and are therefore working with a much more mature codebase that they’re also much more comfortable with. for example, I’m loving liftoff but it has so many random bugs that, while not awful, are a bit jarring. and the vast majority of them aren’t Lemmy bugs, they’re just normal app bugs that haven’t been worked out yet. and while I’m sure the liftoff devs are great, it’s a new app and will experience growing pains that sync likely won’t deal with as much.
