Unable to delete double-post on Lemmy from Friendica


!Fediverse

Hey - I accidentally replied to a top-level post when I meant to reply to a comment within a post within a Lemmy Community (c/homebox). I copied my comment over as a new reply and then deleted the original.

At first, it looked like that was all I needed to do, but then the top-level reply showed back up on lemmy.world. I have already "Deleted Comment Globally" within Friendica, so I'm not sure how to remove the double-post.

Am I missing something, or is this a bug of some sort?

in reply to Tonya

Thanks for the quick response!

It seems that I'm having a different issue when I use :main (image attachments no longer load, and backup fails with errors stating WRN ../go/src/app/internal/core/services/service_exports.go:534 > export: attachment blob missing, skipping ).

Can I trust the backup zip files that are created in /data/<uid>/exports/ when using the :latest image until there is an update?

Help - Trouble with Backing Up


!HomeBox

Hey Homebox Community.

I'm having some trouble getting Backups out of my Homebox install - it seems that I'm running into bug #1592 (github.com/sysadminsmedia/home…).

The bug seems to be fixed by merge #1596 (github.com/sysadminsmedia/home…) which says its merged into main, however the homebox:latest image does not seem to have been updated past 0.26.2.

It does seem that I can get the backups created and pull them out of the container manually for the moment... do I just need to wait until another version upgrade? Is there some other tagged version I should be using besides :latest? Do I need to avoid using the prebuilt image and build an image myself from source?

Thanks in advance!

I think part of it is that it *is* easy.... when you're working on your own setup, that you built, and know all the components of, and know all the long term goals of, that was built over years piece-at-a-time...

Get anyone who acts like it's easy to work on someone's setup that isn't their own, and they'll quickly remember how complicated it all is.

Friendica - Interacting with Lemmy Communities


!GigglezNet Community Tips

Under the hood, Friendica can speak to other Fediverse servers similarly to how gmail.com email servers can talk to outlook.com email servers. What this means is that you can use other social media platforms from within this one!

For example, lets say you want to interact with posts from a Lemmy Community (conceptually similar to a 'subreddit'). If you want to receive posts from a community directly in your feed, you can do so by adding a contact for `!communityname@lemmy.instance`. If you want to make a new post to that community, you can do so by tagging the user `!communityname@lemmy.instance`.

You can browse Lemmy Communities by going to individual instances in your web browser (sh.itjust.works and lemmy.world being two of the larger english speaking instances). If you find a Community you like, it is highly recommended that you add it as a contact as described above because it allows you to see multiple different Lemmy Communities within your feed, without having to browse multiple separate sites for updates from specific communities/groups.
