Comment on FediDB has stoped crawling until they get robots.txt support
notfromhere@lemmy.ml 1 month agoHow is it air gapped and federated? Do you unairgap it periodically for a refresh then reairgap it? I’ve not heard of airgapped federated servers before and am intrigued. Is it purely for security purposes or also bandwidth savings? Are there other reasons one may want to run an air gapped instance?

In this scenario, I have multiple servers which are networked together and federated via ActivityPub but the server cluster itself is air gapped.
As to your questions about feasibility and purposes, I will admit I both didn’t think about that, and should have been more clear that this air gapped federated instance was theoretical lol

Then I’m not sure what point you were trying to make in the above conversation lol.

The point was “don’t add another bot into the pile of millions of bots that hit people’s servers every day unless you’re gonna be polite about it”
