Wait, I thought those were called spaces. Have I been calling them wrong all the time?
- Comment on Ditch the DIY Drama: Why Use Fedify Instead of Building ActivityPub from Scratch? 2 weeks ago:
Not same thing. I’m not talking about a postgres competitor. The other two replies already phrased it pretty good IMHO. I don’t think that, when building a fedi app, impending AP is the core of your app.
- Comment on Ditch the DIY Drama: Why Use Fedify Instead of Building ActivityPub from Scratch? 2 weeks ago:
I’m not sure about that. Sometimes it’s more about properly applying libraries. Thinking of database handling or cryptography

Yeah, if you run
latest, there’s no need for renovate. I don’t though - Comment on How To: Automate version update for your selfhosted Docker containers with Gitea, Renovate, and Komodo 3 weeks ago:
I haven’t used Komodo yet, does it change the compose files in the repo as well? I thought it’s just reading, not writing. Personally I like the workflow of Merge Requests that Renovate provides.
Not sure what you mean with the second paragraph. Which config toml?
- Comment on How and where should I keep backups of system configurations? 3 weeks ago:
Make sure to not check in secrets in plaintext. git crypt is one way to encrypt secrets before checking them in.

Sounds interesting! I’ll give it a try

Interesting writeup, thanks! I thought maybe dropping connections with those user agents would be the best but idk. My sites have not been targeted yet fortunately.

To expose your stuff to the outside internet, you need to actively set port forward in your internet router, you won’t do that by accident.
- Comment on Selfhosting Sunday - What's up? 4 weeks ago:
Ouch!

Did autotune touch the interfaces?
- Comment on Selfhosting Sunday - What's up? 4 weeks ago:
Nice! Hosting your own Fedi stuff feels great.

I’m using the Hetzner nameservers, it’s not exactly DynDNS but they have a DNS API and I just have a cronjob set up that checks every five minutes if the IP is still correct and updates otherwise.
Using this in the cronjob: github.com/FarrowStrange/hetzner-api-dyndns

- Comment on How is content like this banned on .ml for being "political"? 4 weeks ago:
If an instance decides to not federate with another one they don’t see each other anymore. You can’t subscribe to their communities and vice versa, you don’t see their users posts in third instance communities. From your perspective it stops existing.
It’s sometimes necessary e.g. if an instance doesn’t do moderation by itself and hoards of trolls are coming from one instance spamming in many communities so you don’t have to ban each of their trolls. It can also be a tool if moderation goals differ too strongly from each other, and some instances have decided to defederate from lemmy.ml and more vocal tankie instances like lemmygrad and hexbear.
- Comment on How is content like this banned on .ml for being "political"? 4 weeks ago:
Because they made this thing and Fediverse is per se open. If you question whether they belong, I wonder why you are posting on .ml?
You didn’t post which community you posted that into so it’s a but hard to evaluate how legitimate the removal is.

Don’t worry, I didn’t :)
- Comment on What do you think might be some fun, positive ways for instances to distinguish themselves? 4 weeks ago:
Mastodon where you can’t use the letter “e”: vice.com/…/its-like-tweeting-but-you-cant-use-the… ( oulipo.social )
- Comment on Proxmox vs. Debian: Running media server on older hardware 5 weeks ago:
Yes, but that’s a supported way to install Proxmox.
- Comment on Proxmox vs. Debian: Running media server on older hardware 5 weeks ago:
You have some options that aren’t in the installer e.g. full disk encryption
- Comment on Proxmox vs. Debian: Running media server on older hardware 5 weeks ago:
Your CPU should be perfectly capable of that. I ran Proxmox with some VMs and containers on an i5-2400 with 16GB RAM just fine.
You could run on bare Debian as well but virtualization will give you more flexibility. If you get a Zigbee Dongle or the like, you can pass it through to the VM Home Assistant is running in.
I don’t know MergeFS but usually the recommendation is ZFS.
- Comment on An idiots guide? 5 weeks ago:
Regardless of how you host Nextcloud, what you described is one thing I really like about Nextcloud: the major part of it being synced to several devices. As long as you have a computer with the desktop client that’s on every once in a while, your stuff is saved across different devices.
I’ve had a similar thing happen once btw, deleted the wrong server. It was “just” monitoring data, but I had spent a lot of effort building it properly. I eventually started over it, but knowing the whole thing is gone feels really bad.
- Comment on Discord going public. Plz help a future refugee. 5 weeks ago:
Does it? I think it logs you out and after logging in again, you need to provide your encryption key/verify with other device again in order to access the history. Or wdym with breaking?

Ah! I don’t know what exactly these mean, would be interesting to see what Element says what those mean. I don’t think Element actually adds these to your messages etc but I don’t know the protocol enough.

Does IRC have performant voicechat?
- Comment on Is it worth using bookwyrm over open library? 5 weeks ago:
I think they have different use cases. OL may have a more consistent library, but Bookwyrm has the (social) features im looking for in a book app.
Personally I add books to OL and then import to BW.
- Comment on Discord going public. Plz help a future refugee. 5 weeks ago:
Does it? On Android, it never asked me to grant location permission unless I try to share my location to another user. Similar with contacts and calendar, it’s working perfectly fine without them. Where exactly does it link those identifiers and with what?
- Comment on To boost Bookwyrm, there should be a tool to scrape book data from Amazon 1 month ago:
Search currently includes OpenLibrary and Inventaire, plus some more I think but I’m not sure right now.
That doesn’t mean a Browser plug-in couldn’t be useful ofc, but Bookwyrm is not limited to what it’s users manually add - even though, through federation, that’s quite a lot already.

OL reviews are not pulled, just the book data
