Vercel has been a PITA for a few reasons I won't go into, and I eventually reached a usage limit that made the site unusuable. Cloudflare pages has no usage limits, so I have switched to that. Nothing different should be noticable, except that initial loads might be slightly faster.
I understand lots of people dislike cloudflare, so if you want to get away from it, here are some publicly hosted instances:
Instance | Location | Contact |
---|---|---|
phtn.app (Official) | 🇺🇸 US West | photon@xylight.dev |
photon.thesanewriter.com | 🇺🇸 US East | thesanewriter@lemmy.thesanewriter.com |
p.darrennathanael.com | 🇮🇩 ID West | noc@darrennathanael.com |
phtn.ngn.tf | 🇹🇷 Turkey | services@ngn.tf |
lm.sudovanilla.org | 🇺🇸 US East | hello@sudovanilla.org (behind 1 version) |
You can also selfhost it if you'd like.
git clone https://github.com/Xyphyn/photon
cd photon
npm install && ADAPTER=node npm run build
node ./build/index.js

Betas of iOS 18.1 et al with Apple Intelligence could land as soon as this week.
I'm new to this stuff so go easy on me.
So I want to get into selfhosting, and I've decided to get a Raspberry Pi 5. I plan to attach drives to it, from about 500GB-1TB. I'm on a budget, preferably under $100.
I want to host these things:
I was wondering whether I should get an SSD or an HDD for these. Lemmy would probably like an SSD because it uses Postgres, but an HDD would be better for storage since I get more GB per dollar.
What should I go with?
One year ago, on June 24, 2023, I saw the migration to Lemmy. I wanted to make something like libreddit, so I decided to mess with Lemmy's API. Lemmy became something I wanted to use daily, so I got to work, and I made the first commit:
I started with something that reused components from another project of mine, Imagi. It looked awful and had no features. But, some people actually started using it, and I was motivated to continue this.
After about a month 0.0.1 was released, with very basic features.
Photon has been fully localized and you can translate it to your native language now! (will not be released until v1.30)
You can help translate at the Weblate
If you need help, you can join Photon Translators Matrix room.
Ask for as many clarifications as you need.
