Forgejo gives you a registry built-in.
Also is it just me or does the docker hub logo look like it’s giving us the middle finger?
- Comment on Can we please make a viable (federated!) amazon alternative? I have an idea! 12 hours ago:
No I mean, I don’t “trust” a groceries store. I only use them to trade for groceries, and only use cash when doing so.
Just because I use someone doesn’t mean I trust them. Even more: just becaue I trust Alice, that doesn’t mean I trust Bob by transitivity.

- Comment on You Can Post Your Way Out of Fascism if You Own the Means of Posting 3 days ago:
Oh get off their high horse. I know of no instance that is like Ecosia where your activity gets to, dunno, plant a tree or something. If you say online spaces somehow physically fight fascism, show me how many homeless people is your instance physically sheltering or helping immigrate to a better country, and we’ll talk.
Like, I love this kind of web space as much as the next person; but I don’t fancy myself in the emperor’s clothes.

- Comment on Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps. 1 week ago:
Doesn’t need to (but yeah yeah they’re Google, I know…). They just should name it “Gulf of México” or whatever the translated name is to the user’s device, and add an asterisk somewhere that shows a note to the effect of “a small fraction of Confederate remnants think it should be called ‘Gulf of America’”.
- Comment on Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy 1 week ago:
I don’t really buy it tbh. People nowadays take pride in using stuff without understanding it. From Cookie Clicker, to even something as dangerous as car driving. In theory, they should be salivating at the Fediverse.

- Comment on Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps. 1 week ago:
What else do people expect them to do?
1.- Refuse-
2.- Apply only the part of the name change that’s actually covered by US jurisdiction. The Gulf of Mexico extends noticeably beyond US’s borders.
But hey this is Google we’re talking about.
Besides, it still say Gulf of Mexico if you’re outside the USA.
If I’m a eg.: Colombian, it should be
“Gulf of Mexico”“Golfo de México” wherever I stand, not “Gulf of America”. - Comment on hexbear.net comically loses its domain name 1 week ago:
Oh please. Principles are like asses: everyone’s got one, and everyone thinks it’s other peoples’s that stink.
Many things are worth nil on principle. It’s the execution that matters.

And IPv6 won’t be that much harder, it’s only… uh… 32 hex digits
I’m still salty that IPv6 is not 6 octets. Six. It’s right there in the name. IPv4 is 4 octets!

…what, are you looking for instances for bots?
- Comment on Bad UX is keeping the majority of people away from Lemmy 1 week ago:
Everyone gets signed up to that initially and those who want to transfer to another instance afterwards can.
That’s the second big problem hidden in this model: account migration doesn’t currently work (nor do I know of an ETA for feature release).
Not to mention the first problem: this heavily promotes centralization which is what caused this whole mess in the first place.

I don’t get how people get hung on choosing a server when people have been chosing a starter Pokémon since 1998 without any major issues. And you get just about the “same” amount of practical info.
Really, what tiktok does to a generation…
- Comment on hexbear.net comically loses its domain name 1 week ago:
In a good internet, you shouldn’t have to pay someone else for your own identity.
- Comment on hexbear.net comically loses its domain name 1 week ago:
It’s (un)amusing how the Fediverse of all things still depends on a system of identity that relies on forcing trust on a third party that can take that identity from you at any point and without recourse (within that system). Or, you know, you can “forget to drink your internet identity verification can for the commercial god”, which is just as (un)funny.

- Comment on Interest in a website containing the docker-compose files of projects listed in the awesome-selfhosted list 1 week ago:
Persistence of “mental state” mostly. By setting up a compose, you have a written down notion of things like volumes, environment variables and other elements stored somewhere for the behaviour of the container, that can not be ignored or defaulted if you don’t wish it, for when you need to undo and redo a container and default behaviours are important.
While sure, those elements can be set in a loooong
${engine} run…
command, it’s easy to forget to set up something important or copy and paste an accidental endline. A compose file (plus a sample envfile, if you so wish) helps keep the way to set up variables and state under control. Made much easier now that we have bothdocker-compose run
andpodman-compose run

Ubiquitousness is not an aspect of the codec, let alone a technical one. It’s yet another failure of capitalism.
- Comment on Homelab upgrade - "Modern" alternatives to NFS, SSHFS? 1 week ago:
Fam, the modern alternative to SSHFS is literally SSHFS.
All that said, if your use case is mostly downloading and uploading files but not moving them between remotes, then overlaying webdav on whatever you feel comfy on (and that’s already what eg.: Nexctloud does, IIRC) should serve well.

We’re here to help! We just need someone to implement doomscroll / infiniscroll into Lemmy, lol.
- Comment on Blahaj? I'd be curious what led to this decision. 1 week ago:
Looking at the various recent mishaps, like this one, I’m two steps from offering my services as an instance admin. Or would be, if I wasn’t already busy with a half-time job and the other half of the time wasn’t trying to have a social life.

Uuuuuh that’s not the way to fight an addiction, right? Who is this person working for, exactly?
- Comment on Do you like the Mastodon approach of consistent branding for different instances? 1 week ago:
My kneejerk reaction coming from the '90s is that if I wanted the same branding for everything, I’d just use Apple or Gnome. At the same time, constructing brand image on top of a third-party base that is in development and can change over time can be difficult, or just “not worth the $RESOURCE”. So I’m currently in the position that something like “universal Mastodon view with brand accents” would be the most fitting thing for the Fediverse.
- Comment on We need Lemmy.sdf.org to me SDF Member only 2 weeks ago:
I’m fine with requiring mail sign-in with the usual “what am I fighting for” essay, yeah, but… “We” need l.s.o. to be SDF Members only? Who is this “we” you speak about? I’m certainly not in it. Limiting the number of users who can be in l.s.o. in that way could very well lead to instance upkeep, which has already shown to be a problem, to be just Not Worth It.
