Detransitioners exist, but they are such a tiny minority of people who receive gender-affirming care. IIRC, more people regret having knee surgery than any surgery associated with a gender transition. Should we ban knee surgery?!

This is giving me !funhole@lemmy.sdf.org vibes

I just took an edible and it’s starting to kick in, but I still want to figure this out.

Getting stoned and getting the magic rocks in my homelab to do my bidding is one of my favourite ways to use up my time on this Earth.

When you post a link, you can add a thumbnail image URL! In the default lemmy-ui, it should be right under where you upload an image :)

I got a new job, and the group chat is on WhatsApp, so I’m looking into running a Synapse server with a bridge to it. I really don’t want to have to use Meta’s apps on my phone.

From what I’ve read so far, it seems like it’s going to be the most convoluted install process I’ll have encountered in my self-hosting journey. I’m excited to tackle it, but also a bit overwhelmed. Which is why I’ve been putting it off :P

For anyone wondering, lemm.ee is hosted in Finland, as per this post by the admin.

I’m actually friends with one of queens mentioned in the article! These people are honestly so brave, every drag queen I know has received so many death threats in the past two years.

Last year, a couple of local queens I know were hosting a music festival, and a man was overheard heading into the venue saying “if those fucking f*gs come out on stage I’m leaving to get my gun”. Thankfully he was arrested, but talk about terrifying. And yet these queens keep on fighting publicly for what’s right.

Any ports used in docker will be open on your computer and accessible to any device in your network.

However, to open up a port to the internet, you’d have to do port-forwarding on your router. If you haven’t done that, any incoming connections will just be dropped at the router-level.

That’s actually so cool and the more I think about it the more it’s making me really want to host my own Lemmy instance. Can I ask what sort of hardware resources you’re running it on?

I’m reading it so I’d say it works!

You don’t have to be prescribed estrogen to have bloodwork done! I definitely think you should seek it out if you go the DIY route.

OP’s not asking for advice on what to do with her therapist, she’s asking for advice regarding DIY HRT. IMO it’s not really our place to question why she might make that choice for herself.

I’d definitely recommend reading through diyhrt.wiki’s page for transfems. I doubt you’ll find a better source of info online.

I hope things go smoothly with your therapist! Best of luck to you :)

“Public benefit corporation” is such an oxymoron, I know it’s cliché to say this but it reads like something out of 1984.

If your goal is truly to benefit the public, why wouldn’t you start a non-profit? It’s because they want profits, which will always be at odds with the interests of the public.

They meant pinging your server from another device, I assume.

What error(s) do you get when you try to SSH into your server?

By “can’t access containers”, I assume you mean via devices you’re trying to connect to the server with? Can you still access the stuff you’re running in the containers directly on the server via localhost?

I’ll echo what the other commenter’s have said and you need to give us more info. “I added two containers” is pretty much useless if that’s all we have to go off of to start troubleshooting. More details on what exactly you did, any troubleshooting steps you’ve already tried, what specific errors you get, etc.

I can only assume it’d be a bridge for Nextcloud Talk.

Blaming your fellow queers for your oppression, that’s so incredibly lame.

I’m sure you are the perfect expression of queerness, and if every gay were like you, the bigots would stop hating us. /s

Like what are you even proposing? That in order to be an effective queer activist, you need to be okay with misgendering? I feel your rage, but please direct it towards the fascists taking away our rights instead of bashing other queers. This kind of community in-fighting in what the bigots want, we need queer solidarity right now.

I was having issues getting my Android device to use my local DNS server over VPN, what worked for me was setting it up through RethinkDNS. There’s a setting to prevent DNS leaks by capturing all traffic on port 53 and directing it to the DNS server you set. It doesn’t feel like an elegant solution but hey, it works.

Note, you’ll have to make sure your private DNS setting is off, in the internet section of the system settings.

From a quick Lemmy search, I’ve seen Njalla and 1984.hosting being recommended for these kinds of uses.
