It’s a BE (backend) bug. Our instance admins need to update the BE to version 0.18.4.

It’s a BE (backend) bug, so it’s not Jerboa related. Our instance admins have to update the BE to 0.18.4.

No need to create an issue, it’s a BE (backend) bug, fixed in 0.18.4, but our instance admins haven’t update to the latest BE version 🤷.

It’s not a Jerboa bug, it’s a BE bug, confirmed a few posts below. Lemmy.ml should be on 0.18.4, so should lemmy.dbzer0.com.

Yeah, that should be super easy, since In don’t speak any German 😒.

Nevertheless, I’ll try and see if they reply.

BE of my instance: 0.18.3.

0.0.42… that’s the version in the About section.

BE of my instance?

I’ll create one 👍. Just need more confirmations, a few more replies should do it.

Might be a SAS driver issue. Have you checked if the drives show up on a live distro, something more current, like let’s say Void or anything that has a 6.x kernel?

I’ve had issues like this with older Marvel SCSI controllers, some of them don’t have open source drivers for Linux, and the ones provided by the manufacturer (if there are any) are so old that you’d have to be runnig kernel 2.x in order for them to work. I just gave up in the end, disabled the SCSI controller in BIOS and just used the rigs on IDE/SATA.

I usually use 7z as well… mostly because of the higher compression ratio. I resend in zip if I get complaints, but if it’s a large file that barely fits in size on whatever hosting service I decide to share the file on, I just tell them to install 7zip or any other archiver that can open 7z archives. If they don’t how to do it, hey I also offer remote IT assistance 🤷.

Discovery is never gonna work on the fediverse. Info is too scattered. Sure, large servers will get discovered, but not smaller ones. They come and go, URLs change… it’s a mess.

You delete comments here as well?

Oh, yeah, makes sence in that case. Thought it was some other general information, like troubleshooting info.

I can get behind stuff like this, sure, but not with stuff like I posted 😒. There was valuable info there that could’ve solved my problem in an instant, but I just had to go the long way around 😒.

Could I ask why you would delete your own comments after a week of two?

I managed to get pointed in the right direction, but no thanks to that user 😒.

Doesn’t matter, I have no idea who the user is.

Didn’t know where to put it… just thought might pass as a meme…

Exactly my thoughts… just leave man, I left as well 🤷. They won’t get any more info from you but leave the info alone, it’s valuable when people troubleshoot online.

I asked the same question on the Void comm here, no replies 😒.

Some people just don’t get it, some subs will never shift over to Lemmy… ever. The Void sub is a perfect example, their sub is their help/troubleshooting forum. It’s a means to an end for them and the maintainers will never ever shift over here. Too unstable and unusuable for them. Basically, they don’t care about reddit policy or API pricing, it doesn’t affect them, it’s a niche sub. And the number of people on Lemmy that use Void is… just close to none… and even if there are some, they probably don’t know how to fix the problem I’ve been having since I asked and there were no replies. I litelarly copy/pasted the same title and text there, on reddit whwn I asked the question.

Oh really, and where are you searching for answers when troubleshooting, the library 😒?

Sorry, read it wrong 😁.
