When DMing me, remember that you have to trust both your server’s admin, as well as mine.

If you read the actual Hacker News thread, they were getting a 5sec delay with wget, but not curl.
Don’t remember the details, but it could have been a bug in twitter’s code (i.e. not malicious). But we’ll probably not know the truth because Elon does not reply to media enquiries, and tech journalists love a juicy story.
China to allow every US based social network when?
Oh who am I kidding.
Thanks! I’ll check with my vps provider.
However, this proxy does not seem to be “within” the tor network itself, right? I’m just connecting someone to the first entry node on the system, correct?
Would I be transmitting unencrypted data? In other words, would an outsider be able to tell that I’m transmitting something illegal to a person accessing tor?
Thanks! Would you be able to elaborate a bit more?
It was my understanding that this is not the same thing as running an exit node.
Ok I’ll ask. What am I missing here?
Honestly? Probably boredom. Computer-related projects are addictive to me.
Haven’t ventured too far, but searxng was my first selfhosted service. It’s very easy, single container, no database.
Never self-hosted Lemmy, but have self-hosted other things in the past. While you don’t necessarily need to code, you need a fair amount of code-adjacent skills. If you ever want to get into self-hosting, you should have a look into (at least):
It makes sense in terms of reproducibility.
Imagine if your server gets compromised, you accidentally break it, or you just want to move to a cheaper provider or a different server. Do you want to have to tweak it all over again, and fix bugs that you figured out how to fix 6 months ago and you don’t remember?
I’d rather have some yaml files that do it for me. And it’s a new skill as well.
Docker is definitely worth the time investment.
If OP wants to go one level deeper: Ansible.
Probably even with a CS degree.
It’s just a hassle to maintain, and too mission critical to have it go down.
I wonder if the same won’t happen with the fediverse, if we let some instances get too large.
Agree on RSS.
Don’t have enough experience with XMPP.
IRC is not a secure protocol, I think matrix takes the cake there. (although I really miss IRC)
Lemmy and Reddit do have an upvote feature and aggregation across different topics / communites, which I think it’s what old school forums lacked.
Damn, that’s big. Was there internal conflict, or amicable? What does it mean for signal?
Also, does anyone know what Moxie might get involved with? He’s quite the interesting character (go watch his sailing documentary if you haven’t already).
If you don’t mind selfhosting, miniflux is pretty nice.
Really lightweight, downloads the full text if possible (instead of just the first paragraph), etc.
