I’d love to read your explanation for each distro’s ranking.

Not that I’d recommend doing this, but back when I was younger, I had the not so bright idea that I could go to work come home, game the whole night, then go back to work. It was a terrible idea in hindsight, but I used to it a lot. To achieve this, I used to mix energy drinks and pre-workout to stay awake, and I’d drink it as though I was drinking water, so I ended up drinking a butt load. I just want to stress again though that I’d never recommend actually doing this though unless as a last resort, but even then I’d caution away from it. I get there are times when one feels they absolutely must stay awake, God knows the amount of times I accidentally slept through something, and ruined relationships, but as others have said planning is probably the issue you’re facing.

This what you’re looking for?

If you want to self-host Lemmy you can just use this easy install script, just make sure to modify the config file to suite your setup it’s only a couple variables, and it’s pretty self-explanatory. https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy

The “official web app” is how people can self-host Lemmy, to access it as a user it’s just the website.

Here are some links to places you can find communities:

• https://lemmyverse.net
• https://sub.rehab/?visibleServices=lemmy
• https://browse.feddit.de/
• https://redditmigration.com/

There’s one other one, but I can’t remember it, I’ll update this if I can.

Private trackers are great since people tend to seed things for longer, also to note generally keeping your ratio up is required. Personally, I use a private tracker when I need to find something I just can’t find anywhere else, but with that said for anime nyaa should be the only place you really need.

Tell that to my body. From my own personal experience when the temperature drops below 23C I get a cold, simple as that and temperature has been the only fluctuating variable. So while the cold may not be the direct cause it’s a big enough influence for me that I’d rather not take my chances.

In the winter, I’ll accept 23C anything colder and I catch a cold.

No problem, by the way be sure to note the correction.

Thanks for the correction! I’ll correct this in the OC.

1. Yes, Lemm.ee is a separate instance.
2. You subscribe to communities that are made inside different instances.
3. Their just different instances.
4. I’ve got different accounts on different instances in the event one instance is having issues or is down.
5. You’re looking at communities hosted on that particular instance.

6. Local feed is communities on your instance and all is communities on your instance combined with communities you’re subscribed in.

6. It’s all the communities your instance is federated with.

Edit: Corrected point 6 as pointed out by Communist.

If you want to build up your ratio, you should try part seeding or outside seeding.

I think a lot of the major topics have already been covered, but without knowing exactly what you’re looking for, it’s kind of hard to comment. If, as you’ve said, the communities you’re looking at are dead, then maybe start posting in them and see what happens. If nothing happens, then possibly the right people just aren’t interested right now, although I’m sure people will come along eventually. I would say it’s fair to say a large majority of people aren’t aware of Lemmy or don’t know how to use it, so it’ll take some time.
