VMs or containers?
  • If it's relevant to your actual job, learning to use k8s will benefit you more. Generally i'd prefer to keep the bare metal OS as clean as possible to avoid breaking anything during upgrades and such, and keep the containers and normal running apps on separate VMs that can communicate with eachothers, k8s is mostly good if you got a lot of servers and want to manage them all at once through a single "orchestrator". But for self hosting stuff in your home it's kinda overkill. But it still can be used to manage things up. So imo go for k8s since it can be used in homeservers, it's just that it's kinda like using a nuclear bomb to kill a wasp.

  • What's your email client of choice?
  • Thunderbird on desktop, fairemail on android.

  • Musk is undeniably just trying to run twitter into the ground at this point.
  • The more i read this the funnier it gets. Holy fuck twitter you really found a way to go even lower.

  • Lemmy vs kbin?
  • I do not want to touch a single line of code in PHP. Even brainfuck is more attractive than PHP

  • Instagram Is Removing Sex-Positive Accounts Without Warning | WIRED
  • No wonder why meta wants to take part of the fediverse! /s

  • Meta is planning to let people in the EU download apps through Facebook
  • So it's epic games store saga all over again? It won't get any better with an even more controversial company.

  • What search engine do you use?
  • SearXNG, searches every search engine and regroups them in a single list, alongside the very powerful "bang" variant they use ("!!" is like "!" for ddg, and "!" is to only search with this search engine, ":en" is to choose a specific shortcode language.)

  • repost: Should r/Piracy continue protesting?
  • They should stop protesting and let the place rot, they're already on lemmy and officially moved there now. Best thing they could do is to lock the subreddit, point to lemmy, and keep it like that till admins feels like force-reopening an (illegal!) subreddit and appoint supermods that won't do anything with it. r/piracy is dead, long live c/piracy official lemmy community.

  • Mastodon's Eugen Rochko in talks with Meta?!😱
  • Great, just what we needed. Looks like he ignored the risks of facebook (or meta, i still prefer to call with the already stained name) killing the fediverse. Hopefully nothing comes out of this discussion.

  • Google Pixel 8 leak points to desktop mode support, DisplayPort over USB-C
  • Hopefully this means companies using android will stop being lazy or cutting corners and finally give to everyone the vanilla desktop experience instead of restricting it on overpriced expensive ph ones!

  • Best places to get human reviews/recommendations outside of reddit?
  • They don't know what should they do at this point, they wanted to scrape the website (which is what teddit plans to do) but saw that it would be too muc work, then they said they would use graphQL and now they want to cache requests to reduce the API usage while asking for the instance admins to provide the private key. They made a poll on github on wether they should make the telemetry of sending the number of requests in a totally private way, and the majority was fine, but the devs were still skeptical on adding this feature, so yeah, libreddit doesn't have a bright future currently.

  • I want to debunk Reddit's claims, and talk about their unwillingness to work with developers, moderators, and the larger community, as well as say thank you for all the support
  • They don't even plan to scrape the website, so libreddit might eventually die. To be fair i think that would be a great way for me to stop lurking at reddit and look for answers and solutions elsewhere in the end.

  • Malicious Compliance on Reddit in a nutshell
  • Honestly this is trolling Reddit and i love it, destroy the point of the sub, go absolutely literal. And I'm here for it!

  • What do you all use for password management?
  • KeepassXC on desktop and KeepassDX on my android device, synced using syncthing. I don't trust servers keeping all of my passwords anymore, encrypted or not

  • As the Reddit war rages on, community trust is the casualty
  • Can confirm that I got resubbed to r/funny after removing it last week. Reddit is definitely tampering with its users now. Can't wait for the GDPR complaint if they decide to restore deleted comments pre-protest.

  • Should I be concerned with exposing my server to the public?
  • Isolate your programs, keep the critical stuff away from the public using tailscale or a VPN, hell, even an SSH tunnel could work in your case, make sure to keep different password for each software for your database. If possible virtualize each software to keep them from communicating to other softwares. This is how i manage my infrastructure (or should be, i haven't gotten yet to use tailscale for admin only websites).

  • Are all these thousands of lemmy servers useless?
  • I don't think having a federated r/all would properly work in a federated network, where popular posts comes at the top of the community.
