I currently have 3 accounts (big shock):

I know for me, at least with gnome, toggling between performance, balanced, and battery saver modes dramatically changes my battery life on Ubuntu, so I have to toggle it manually to not drain my battery life if it’s mostly sitting there. I don’t know if Mint is the same, but just throwing out the “obvious” for anyone else running Linux on a laptop.
Out of curiosity, what switch are you using for your setup?
Last time I looked, I struggled to find any brand of “home tier” router / switch that supported things like configuring vlans, etc.
Maybe I am not thinking of the access control capability of VLANs correctly (I am thinking in terms of port based iptables: port X has only incoming+established and no outgoing for example).
I think of it like this: grouping several physical switch ports together into a private network, effectively like each group of ports is it’s own isolated switch. I assume there are routers which allows you to assign vlans to different Wi-Fi access points as well, so it doesn’t need to be literally physical.
Obviously the benefits of vlans over something actually physical is that you can have as many as you like, and there are ways to trunk the data if one client needs access to multiple vlans at once.
In your setup, you may or may not benefit, organizationally. Obviously other commenters have pointed out some of the security benefits. If you were using vlans I think you’d have at a minimum a private and public vlan, separating out the items that don’t need Internet access from the Internet at all. Your server would probably need access to both vlans in that scenario. But certainly as you say, you can probably accomplish a lot of this without vlans, if you can aggressively setup your firewall rules. The benefit of vlans is you would only really need to setup firewall rules on whatever vlan(s) have Internet access.
I ran into the same thing. I’ve always just worked around it, but I believe I did find the solution at one point (can’t find the link now).
But if I am remembering right, I believe you need to manually create a bridge between the two networks - by default it isolates the VMs from TrueNAS itself for security reasons.
Sorry I can’t link the exact fix right now, but hopefully this will help you Google the post I found on the subject.
Simple thing, but are you sure you mounted the NFS share as NFSv4? I don’t have access to a machine to check right now, but I think it might default to mounting NFSv3, even if both sides support v4.
To add on to this answer (which is correct):
Your “of” can also just be a regular file if that’s easier to work with vs needing to create a new partition for the copy.
I’ll also say you might want to use the block size parameter “bs=” on “dd” to speed things up, especially if you are using fast storage. Using “dd” with “bs=1G” will speed things up tremendously if you have at least >1GB of RAM.
Author here! I’ve been posting about it a good bit, and especially with the hack of .world and vlemmy’s disappearance, now others have started sharing it too. Besides myself testing it with lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, and lemm.ee, I’ve seen at least a handful of people that say they’ve run it without issues. I’m assuming the real number is much higher but there isn’t any tracking in the app, or even a download counter, so I really have no idea.
Only known issue at the minute is whether it works on Mac OS X. It theoretically does, but the only person who attempted it ran into issues where OS X wanted to open it as a text file instead of running the program - and it’s the only platform I can’t test myself.
Obviously if you do have any issues you can report them on GitHub.
Right now, yes - I know that’s unfortunate since we still have many instances on 0.18.0, but I’m hoping they will all move up to 0.18.1 once that is officially released, which should be soon.
Supporting multiple versions of the API would be really difficult right now with it changing so often, but the hope is that in the future you can at least use an older version of LASIM to download from an older lemmy instance, then take that profile file and upload it with a newer version of LASIM to a newer instance.
Hey OP, just letting you know I just released a tool that does this. It’s alpha, and only supports Lemmy BE 0.18.1-rc9 (and above), but if your source and destination meet that criteria, you can give it a whirl: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
Out of curiosity, what content are you looking for? Discovery on Lemmy can be a problem, but sometimes the communities are there and even active, just buried.
But may I also suggest searching by Top Day/12-hour/6-hour to see the most active posts. Lemmy’s scaled algorithm still doesn’t get it quite right IMO.
