    What arrogance?

    As I have been told, for years, av on Linux is used to protect windows machines on the network. Companies use clamav to scan files on network shares used by windows machines. Also, what about virus database/definitions, are they having Linux signatures?

    Since I have no windows machines on the network, why? Has this changed and I should run clamav to scan for Linux viruses? Do signature files actually have signatures for Linux viruses?

    Android most often is compromised by malicious apps, not viruses, which is not really (yet) a problem on Linux. Once it becomes a problem, I will install av. So far it has not been an issue.

    Anyway, effectiveness here is interesting

    What do you run?

    No av on my machines on Linux.

    What I understand, av on Linux is used to protect windows.

    Use an ad blocker when surfing (ublock origin), install only via official repos and set up a DNS server with decent blocklist and you should be fine.





  • Not OP, but what I do lack here is a decent server Implementation in a single binary and easy deployment.

    Also decent native clients for various platforms. Do we have any good ones?

    This probably isn’t a xmpp specific, but I’d like to have it work like wireguard. If the keys are wrong, self hosted instance would just reject it on the packet level. Then only authorized clients could use it. Outgoing connection on some hub instance would give access to outside world. All this would help with self hosting.

    Once you figure out how traefik is configured, this is super logical and easy. Also, you can use it with podman and qublet on fedora, so you can manage it all with systemd.

    Tldr; Traefik is looking at all containers and scans for labels (attributes on containers). If certain labels are set, Traefik adjust itself. So the trick is how to set those labels, which both docker compose and qublet make easy, but qublet doesn’t need a compatibility package and comes natively with podman.
