Sorry, I can’t hear you over the artillery noise.
As a spanish/romance speaking person: ahahahah LOL!
Where do you thing “gratis” and “libre” come from?
Wait.
Does Portainer ask your email? I haven’t used it in years. I though it was just a container that you run, with mounted docker socket, and that’s it.
Is it now doing some “telemetry” and sending user data, like email, to their servers? If so, I’m glad I’m not using that anymore.
VPS + VPN is the cheapest option I believe for the services. It doesn’t have to be “elaborated”.
You can port-forward public VPS ports to your private addresses/ports. If you don’t want to use iptables
you can use firewalld
.
The only “but” will be latency. For gaming it won’t perform as you may need.
It’s no longer open source. Big Deal in my books.
Vault features are cool. I really like it. But with Hashicorp now there is this big risk of “rug pulling” regarding its license.
The wise thing, in my opinion, is to avoid this company as much as possible.
They apparently bribed some of the ActivityPub protocol developers and fediadmins into signing NDAs contracts with Meta.
Now FediDB is showing Meta as “just another fediverse” instance. Pixelfed is very happy to work shoulder to shoulder with Meta devs.
You are not gonna block the most popular man in the Fediverse, are you?
Of course it’s a lemmy.ml user.
If your comments have been federated to other instances, they will be there until they are deleted locally. If someone clicks on your user profile, they will get a DNS error if the domain is no longer there. Images in the comments pointing to you instance will be broken too. Nothing terrible actually happens.
Migrating accounts a la Mastodon is not happening soon in Lemmy.
My advice is: Go on and save some money.
The acorn slayer was a man. And he panicked even worse. He got hit on his imagination, then rolled like an idiot before shooting to his car.
Sorry to read that.
I’ve dd
ed an external drive instead of an SD card once by mistake. I’ve never felt more stupid than that day.
I’m not an expert. But I believe it is something to do with information redundancy.
If you mishear a word but surrounding words must match gender and number, you may reconstruct the misheard word.
As a native spanish speaker, I don’t think of the actual sexuality of objects, it’s just a characteristic of the word that should match other words in the sentence. For example the word screen (pantalla) is femenine, and the word monitor (monitor) is masculine. So when I see my monitor I don’t think of an actual female or male object. But the nouns should match adjectives gender, so if someone says “broken monitor” (monitor roto) or “broken screen” (pantalla rota) I have this kind of redundancy if I misheard a word.
But I’m not an expert of linguistics. Don’t quote me.
It’s running NetBSD, isn’t it?
I saw no spam, but lots of people talking about it.
And fediadmins begging for stopping open registrations.
Some security tips:
Firewall should block everything by default, and you start allowing incoming and outgoing connections when you need them or if something fails.
Disable passwords and root access in ssh daemon.
Use fail2ban or something similar to block bots failing to log-in.
Use random long passwords for everything (eg: like databases). And put then in a password manager. If you can remember the database password, it’s not strong enough. If you can remember the admin password for a public web service, it’s weak.
Don’t repeat the passwords. Everything should have its own random long password.
.env files and files with secrets should be readable only by its service user. Chmod them to 400.
Monitor logs from time to time to see if something funny is happening.
Random ports are easy to discover and there are tools to discover what service is behind a port.
It’s annoying for the legitimate user and easy to bypass by an actual attacker.
Also, if you use a random port above 1024 it could be a security issue since any user could star listening if the legitimate process crashes.

Nothing illegal is being discussed.
But I’m happy to talk about Jolly Roger.
git is already a decentralized version control software. Your local git repos are mirrors by themselves.
Put some
git fetch
in a server crontab, and you’re done. You can access them via ssh if your user have permissions.
