Voyager for Lemmy
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/1303201
We've installed Voyager and it's reachable at https://m.lemmy.world, you can browse Lemmy, and login there (also if your account isn't on lemmy.world)
π This is awesome! Thanks @ruud@lemmy.world!
Is there a benefit to using the Voyager hosted on the Lemmy server vs direct from vger.app? Any downsides
Benefit: My password autofill works because the domain is lemmy.world instead of voyager.app.
Based on a comment by @ruud@lemmy.world it looks like they're just using a docker container, only takes seconds to update. He said he'd probably set up Watchtower which auto updates containers so it should be only an hour or so behind.
Downside from what I understand would be potentially delayed updates depending on how they pull the codebase
When you're using vger hosted on a different domain, your password has to be read by them and sent to the Lemmy server to log you in.
If it's on the same server, the pw stays in the one system (albeit it might still need to go through the two pieces of software, idk how it's configured).
Fantastic. Hopefully this becomes the default and helps to keep your server costs manageable.
Also most popular servers are no longer proxied (or else soon), so that should help a lot I think.
