Objection! Hehe… No, wait. Really, I see a problem…

If registration are closed, mods would be exclusively from outside. And, since reports are not federated, this communities would be prone to difficulties for moderation. Unless reports are correctly federated, I don’t think this is a good idea. And, even if you were to open registrations only for mods, we would have only moved the inconvenience to this (who wants to have so many accounts, really?)

There’s also the problem with centralization of domain names under you. I don’t know you, and perhaps you’re well intended… So, it’s fine for the most part, let’s just assume that’s okay. Now, what happens if you had an accident or decided to go live in a farm? Without domain name renewals, etc. all communities would be in trouble. There’s centralization in the shape of a single point of failure.

I can’t see this happening even if the domain names are cool.

And, leaving disadvantages aside. What’s the point on this? Can you name any advantage?? I agree that it would be more ordered and I like that. But it’s quite subjective, and hardly anything huge to really break the inertia or status quo of things as they’re now…

Thanks for the intentions. Let’s focus on some new ideas, they’ll come…

Been using syncthing with a script on my PC to keep copying stuff on another non synced location in the same filesystem with deduplication enabled (zfs). Technical solution, sadly, not many people are doing it… Btw i use… Xdd

If only you had timeshift and a CoW filesystem ;) rollbacks are easy peasy then!

Indeed! Before I was relying on the listing’s of linuxserver.io , yunohost , casa os , etc .

Oh, it’s already happening. Discussion here: https://programming.dev/post/19211993

I’m all in for new takes that start with a clean slate, if that’s what happens in the near future (e.g. redox-os grows bigger than gnu/ linux *), yet it saddens me that there’s personal health costs on these developers that just wanted to contribute.

* after all, the year of the gnu/ linux desktop has already been past :P

Nice write-up. I’d take this as a blueprint. Anyone can swap 3rd-party services to their like (e.g. headscale, xmpp bot on that vps, backblaze s3, etc.) and extend upon (e.g. oidc providers, mailboxes, arr suite, etc.)

A cheap VPS with headscale. Or just ZeroTier.com free plan.

Oh, fair point. Perhaps rclone.org then! :O

Syncthing. Look no further, just check the “untrusted device” so that you don’t give unencrypted data to your friend’s disk.

This! And, baby-steps: don’t go about installing every app you see. Try backup strategies, put them to test (bring service down and up again with data from backup). Play, have fun.

He asks whatever model is running behind either system to do the comparison and pastes the text. It’s full of errors, like perplexica saying farfalle doesn’t use LLM. Meanwhile, I just checked and it supports anything from ollama to groq (gpt4o, sonnet, etc.)

This post is ultra low quality.

That’s also more on to who the user is (how they interact with the device.) IMHO it’s valuable to at least get to search the internet with an error message. I switched over a decade ago, but on Windows all I had was hexadecimal codes or vague messages. I was a power user, fiddling with all sorts of software, and things did break on either side. I stayed where I could learn, a steep curve, sure. But not a wall.

I use anzo and as password an empty string. It’s never been guessed :p

I am very much looking for feedback on this self-proclaimed simple oidc. Authentik is not as bad as Keycloak, but from what I reckon theres still room for improvement! -fingers crossed-

This is oooold. Like in, it was superseded long agooo.

using Tor is enough meta data if you were to use it to safeguard from some actors (e.g. state). I’m just saying from the perspective of some of the hypothetical personas as defined by Tor project itself. If it were to boil this down to me, I would rather live without the correlation attacks (e.g. ISP giving me seemingly random disconnects) and just do my casual reading on cracking on the clear-net.

Plus, just connecting to Tor is very much a huge exposure imho. I’d use a VPN. Now, if I’m having a VPN, probably wireguard, why would I need Tor? Some providers grant you the ability to interconnect devices under your account. So, just run the VPN on the server. This is why I love NordLynx. It’s just like tailscale.

I might try vaultwarden myself, given that my life partner is always asking me for some platform password I already shared. Is possible to use just on LAN to sync and keep using the passwords from the android client while out of reach? I was just reading about 30-days sessions in the docs. Apparently, yes. That’s huge (for me, I’d like not to expose anything, even with VPN)

The syncthing server only gives metadata (no files, only IPs) between the devices, so they can connect to each other. And it’s self-hostable.
