The Lemmy project website is now rebuilt automatically every hour

3 years ago by Nutomic to c/lemmy

I saw the impressive setup used by the sh.itjust.works instance with 24 CPUs and 64 GB RAM. This inspired me to reconfigure join-lemmy.org so that it can quickly update the instance list, and point users to sites which are actually reachable. This will be an immense help if a lot of Reddit users decide to join Lemmy at once (e.g. during the blackout on Monday). Individual instances will likely go down at that time, but others will stay available and users can easily join them.

Additionally, changes to the site, documentation and translations are also updated automatically. If you see anything that can be improved, consider making a contribution to help new users.

@nutomic@lemmy.ml small recommendations for these two repos:

Configure the github repo description to:

Link to https://join-lemmy.org/ and https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/index.html respectively
Add a short description to each repo
Hide packages/environments since you don't use them

All can be done with a few small clicks like seen here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/71247647/620699

Thanks for the suggestions, I just applied them. However I dont see any packages/environments that you mention.

In this screenshot https://i.stack.imgur.com/uBjDT.png it says "include in home page" and under that there are three checkboxes.

When those are checked the sidebar of the repo shows those things.

Anyway thanks for making the changes :)

I can do this when I get to work later unless someone beats me to it
