I have Mastodon running on a VPS running Debian 11. Now I would like to add a Lemmy instance on the same server. I tried using the from scratch method from Lemmy documentation, but ran into errors that likely stemmed from minor version incompatibilities of the dependencies. I tried using the Lemmy easy deploy script but it wants to bind all traffic on port 443 for Lemmy which would break my Mastodon install. Has anyone managed to get Lemmy and Mastodon running on the same box, and if so, can you share any details of your setup?
Thank you for that.
I did find one glaring issue on kbin that will keep me from using it in the future.
I had apparently opened an account whoknowswhen, and figured I’d remove it and start again. When I went to delete the account, it didn’t actually delete it, instead it keeps me logged in and just put this at the top >Your request to delete the account has been submitted.
That seems like a bit of an issue, as I shouldn’t have to wait for it to be submitted (which also appears to mean approved) before deleting an account. Until that’s fixed, I’ll stick with lemmy and mastodon separately.
The developer of kbin, @ernest, has said that automated processing of account deletion requests is on the roadmap but currently it’s a manual process.
As you can imagine, for a piece of software that two months ago was in alpha status with fewer than 100 regular users and then suddenly became one of the most-used systems on the Fediverse, there are still a lot of rough edges to be cleaned up.
