I’m talking about my direct experiences with these people.
- Comment on Why is this instance federated with HexBear.net? 8 months ago:
I’m onboard with not defederating but holy shit these people are shitting themselves all over the place on worldnews@lemmy.world. they’re way worse than the typical lemmygrad.ml fare.

Multiple hour builds dear god 😵💫
- Comment on Why is programming.dev federated with exploding heads? 9 months ago:
Yeah it should be a per user decision…
- Comment on Who is this "Jenkins" and what now has broken him? 9 months ago:
Ah man, yeah I use it for a much more constrained and very narrow use case. We only use GitHub actions for CI/CD, it can be clunky itself in some aspects but otherwise works great.

Why?
- Comment on Who is this "Jenkins" and what now has broken him? 9 months ago:
What’s wrong with Jenkins? Works pretty great for automated scripts that need to run on a schedule, but I imagine you and this post specifically mean in reference to CI/CD

This is excellent advice and makes me feel less crazy…
- Comment on On the future of Lemmy vs reddit 9 months ago:
I guess I didn’t exactly mean it as elitist gatekeeping, I see it more like people are being abandoned by major websites and this is the result.

Welcome to the old Internet. Decentralization is good in a way, people will have to try harder instead of having everything spoon fed to them by Google.
- Comment on Lemmy is popular nowadays, yet is losing its active users 9 months ago:
The two biggest ones I know of are startrek.website for trekkies and blahaj for all things trans/lgbtq. But even those don’t see to have much activity. We need better advertisement to smaller communities somehow.
- Comment on Yearly reminder that github still does not have an IPv6 address (2023) 9 months ago:
I am not a full network engineer so take my opinion with a grain of salt. From what I understand, NAT with IPv4 works really really well to mitigate IPv4 address exhaustion. Then there’s an issue with the amount of extra processing switches and routers need to do IPv6, we’re going from 32 bits to 128 bits which is a huge increase and for switches and routers that are handling packets as fast as technically possible with a low amount of resources typically, that’s a not insignificant hurdle.
It’s just easier to do IPv4 in every way, plus that’s what the world’s been using and is used to.

The language this guy is wielding is giving cringe as hell, has LinkedIn energy all over it.
- Comment on Yearly reminder that github still does not have an IPv6 address (2023) 9 months ago:
I’ve talked to several network engineers over the years about IPv6, engineers that worked just about as hands on with actual production infrastructure as you can get. And they all said that IPv6 would likely never be fully adopted.

That single tool is still propped up by that collective decade of knowledge. ChatGPT would be nothing without sites like stackoverflow

You were able to post on there at all? Don’t they have extremely high barriers to entry for even question comments?

Lol maybe do the barest amount of researching before commenting on something you know nothing about?

Kind of crazy how unsympathetic people are being towards Tor and Tor operators here

Oof, sorry to hear that.
- Comment on I've noticed that lemmy as a whole is much more leftist than reddit (outside of political servers of course) 9 months ago:
That’s just not true in the slightest, mod and admin actions clearly support a left-wing slant and ban accordingly. Most subs removed over the past few years have overwhelmingly been on the far right side of things. Admins regularly ban people for transphobia. How are you seeing otherwise?
- Comment on Ditching Docker for Local Development 9 months ago:
Appreciate the in-depth response! I’ve always been interested in Nix but I’m scared of change lol. And I’m a single systems administrator on a team of mostly non-technicals so large changes like that are … less necessary. Plus you know, mostly dealing with enterprise software on windows unfortunately. One of these days.
- Comment on Single? 9 months ago:
I’m extremely curious, what county?
- Comment on Ditching Docker for Local Development 9 months ago:
Right? If it’s about ease of insight into containers for debugging and troubleshooting, I can kinda see that. Although I’m so used to working with containers it isn’t a barrier really to me anymore.
- Comment on Ditching Docker for Local Development 9 months ago:
I wish he had written why he’s so anti-container/docker. That’s a pretty unusual stance I haven’t been exposed to yet.

Yeah that’s not gonna happen
- Comment on become ungoogleable 9 months ago:
Where does this guy expect people to find his website? Because there’s only going to be a small amount of nerds who still use RSS feeds. Does he recommend a different search engine?
