How does the search work?

I can’t come up with just one and this list changes over time a lot for me. But here is a current top 3 for me

Dry the River - Weights and Measures

Tallest Man on Earth - Dark Bird is Home

Elbow - One Day Like This

I think what would be interesting is to get everyone who self hosts this do part of the indexing. As in, find some way to split the indexing over self-hosted instances running this search engine. Then make sure “the internet” is divided somewhat reasonably. Kind of what crypto does, but instead producing the indexes instead of nothing.

“Currents” is pretty good if you like metalcore!

But to be fair, obesity does affect your chances of finding a mate.

I’ve recently switched from Notion to Obsidian (almost anyway). But I still have to find a good way to sync. I tried nextcloud, but I couldn’t get two way sync to work on mobile. I feel like €10,- a month for just sync is a bit much, and it (partly) defeats the idea of “the files are mine”.

I wish the official sync software was available for self hosting (ie as a Docker container). Maybe even against a one time fee?

What solutions do others here use for syncing?

Yeah the credit card works well. I’m not really using the rest of the crypto functionality it offers 😅

The crypto.com app. I mean maybe the reason is “security”, but it takes like 10-20 seconds to view my credit card details.

For Google, yes that’s true. Subscription model YouTube is working so that seems fine. But for other websites, such as news sites etc. I wonder if there is a feasible alternative because I don’t want those sites to go away.

Will ungoogled chromium be able to patch this out?

Beside this, I’m still a bit worried about the state of the internet. Currently, ad revenue is what keeps a lot of sites online/free to use. Within the current economic system, is it even feasible to have privacy online?

I tend to wear Ecco’s (not crazy expensive ones, more in the 120-150€ range). I quite like them in terms of being strong and looking good enough. But I think they last me about 2-3 years.

Brandon Sanderson is always a good recommendation

Well the judges are currently reviewing the evidence, so at best, the proof is not public yet. Suffice to say the prosecutors claim he appeared to be running a sex trafficking ring (https://www.reuters.com/world/romania-detains-ex-kickboxer-andrew-tate-human-trafficking-case-2022-12-30/). Which very often contains countless cases of rape.

He also “proudly” says he’s a misogynist, woman are weak, etc (https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-64125045). This its not something non-rapists tend to say.

I agree for serious/business applications. In my case, it’s a home server that I and some close friends and family access. But it is indeed exposed (basically, my router routes port 80 and 443 to the server within the NAT).

To discuss the header-based firewall: the host is used by Traefik to determine which docker container to route (reverse proxy) the traffic to. So I don’t see any obvious ways an attacker can really manipulate that to reach (in my case) the bitwarden instance. My main attack angle this protects if is there is some vulnerability in Bitwarden and bots are going around exploiting that. That way at least Traefik would already block them before they get to bitwarden.

But yes another service with a vulnerability could be exploited, then escape that docker container and you’re in the whole server.

Something to keep in mind here. I am also using an IP white-list, but only on some services Traefik hosts.

So for example bitwarden is behind an IP white-list, but subsonic is reachable from any IP.

I think in that case it’s not really possible (or doable) to write L2 firewall routes.

But if you want all traffic to port 80 on your server to be IP whitelisted, then a regular firewall would be good.

Shrimp = bugs

I remember reading that somewhere, but now I can’t find it back… May or may not be true

From what I understand:

Pros of hosting your own instance:

• control over your data (privacy)
• performance (your instance is probably less busy/faster than lemmy.world, because it has to handle less people, so things load faster)
• it cool

Cons of hosting your own instance:

• maintenance
• federation cost increases for the network (i.e. All instances that host communities you are subscribed to (i.e. Lemmy.world), now need to send (federation) updates to your new instance). Note that as more people start using your instance, it is better for the network.
• you have to have a server running somewhere, which costs money’s.
• you need a max 20 character domain name.
