  • That’s what I’m doing. I like to eat “traditional” salads and stuff like that, but I grew up with them being side dishes most of the time and I think, it’s hard to break habits.

    From a moral standpoint, I’d like to go vegetarian or even vegan at some point, but this requires me to find things that I’ll actually like to eat on a regular basis. Often times, when I search for vegan recipes, something often throws me off. Be it the flavor, the texture, the strength of the flavor or lack thereof, etc. Maybe it’s just that I’m not used to it or that animal fats are carrying so much flavor that I’m now kinda addicted to it? I know, it sounds really stupid, but when I go to the grocery store, I often gravitate towards animal products automatically.

    My first goal will be to reduce meat intake to one, maybe two times a week.



  • We eat tofu every now and then and like it a lot and I did already try out some meat “substitutes” and some of them are actually pretty good, but not cost-effective. I’m not saying I have to look at every cent I spend, but things have gotten harder in recent years, not gonna lie.

    I don’t need or want to replicate meat everywhere. I’m totally fine with non-meat dishes, but my complaint is that many of them don’t taste as good as people (especially vegans) claim, even in restaurants. It’s been quite disappointing multiple times to try that “really, really delicious curry”, that in the end didn’t really taste that great and it’s been a recurring thing for me / us when trying to eat more plant-based foods. This is also true with cauliflower, for instance. I like it in “traditional” meals as side-dish, but no, to me, batter frying cauliflower doesn’t make it good.

    Mushrooms are a staple in our cooking, because I really like my umami flavor (I also use MSG a lot), but unfortunately, my daughter doesn’t like any type of mushroom. I guess, it’s the texture. Tried several different things and she always puts them away.

    Anyway, thank you for your comment. Beyond meat has been on our “try out list” for quite some time.


  • Thank you very much for the hint, I checked out the red lentil curry video and it does look quite delicious. Chicken curry is actually my favorite food and I tried green, brown and red lentil curry before, but didn’t quite like them, even though I’m half asian, lol. I’ll try her recipe, though.

    I personally love coconut milk.

    Sorry, I’m trying. Honestly. I’m looking for vegan and vegetarian recipes and while it usually tastes “fine”, it’s mostly just “meh”.

    I don’t get the hype for things like lentils or quinoa either. Both are “meh” at best.

    So far, I’m unable to find meat-free recipes that truly satisfy me.

    And no, I’m not a bad cook.

    Tell me your reasonably priced vegan and vegetarian recipes that little children will eat, too. Serious request.





  • Questions:

    I think, the default docker-compose.yml and lemmy.hjson state that the PostgreSQL password and the pictrs API key have to match? If I remember correctly, they both have something like {{ postgres_password }} as default. I found that weird, but I also didn’t question it.

    What do you do if one service requires PostgreSQL 15 and another service requires an older version or something like that? Again, if I remember correctly, Lemmy devs recently downgraded PostgreSQL in the default setup for some reason.

    I don’t want to fact check what I said right now, because I’m in the bathtub. I’m just talking from the top of my head.

    Don’t get me wrong, I use a similar setup for my homelab, because I hate spinning up several instances of entire database servers just to get a service running. But I’d be lying if I claimed that I never ran into issues with that setup.
