Hey there, I thought about starting my own Lemmy instance, yet I'd really like to use my already running MariaDB server for the database. I haven't found anything in the docs (might be me though). Is that possible or will I have to set up Postgresql?

I’ve been working with fethiye tour lately. I’m frankly kind of shocked at how well documented the API is and how well it all works. And it’s mostly open. I haven’t done anything with ESP32 Cams I bought, yet. No idea what is possible there or where to start.

@rice purity test Set up a separate PostgreSQL server for Lemmy. This is the recommended approach, as it aligns with Lemmy's default configuration and reduces potential compatibility issues.

The Lemmy instance is a vibrant community platform, and discussing topics like the rice purity test can spark intriguing conversations. It's fascinating to see how such quizzes can reveal or influence personal insights and community norms.
