Immich all the way my dude.

Use Archlinux. Reason ? Because you will be able to say " I use Arch btw".

Btw, I use Arch.

I would never go back installing something without docker. Never.

We need more lanes. Just one more lane and we’ll be done with trafic, I swear!1!!one!1!1!

I’m a bit in the same situation. I can a lot with my bike but it’s dangerous at times, especially with my kids in the back. People need to go to places and unfortunately, everything we built for the last 70years were almost just for cars.

There’s a need for more bike lanes and bus/tramways/métro.

Also, it keeps you in shape!

I wonder, maybe it’s impossible.

MSN Messenger man, what a great software. Also Winamp.

Maybe it’s time to regulate the fuck out of the internet.

I can’t believe this is true. Show pictures and link to the vendor. I wanna see this for myself.

I wasn’t sure of the word. Cute is very good to describe this!

FOR SCIENCE!1!!

It is possible. As long as the protocol allows sending bytes of data controlled by the user which XMPP allows.

You would basically wrap http with XMPP. You need a server that would understand XMPP, read the payload, create the http request, do the request for you, wrap the response with XMPP and send it back to you.

You can do that with DNS as well which would bypass probably everything. However, your bandwidth wouldn’t be great.

1 db per stack. Not worth your time to secure, configure and debug one big db.

I open 443 and 80 on my router and forward it to a reverse proxy.

I have a couple of service that are exposed but most of them make sense only when I’m home so I whitelist private IP address on my reverse proxy.

If you do.your basic security such as updating your servers and services and not having dumb password, you shouldn’t be afraid. Think about it, all of the services that you use is exposed on the internet. I did work for big company and they don’t do much more than what you would probably do, except maybe having some automated monitoring that flag weird stuff. But hey, aside from bots, I don’t think Russian hackers are interested in your stuff. Stay low profile with your exposed things and it’s gonna be alright. Make sure you backup.

Wow, I’ll look into this, thanks !

The hard part is the network. Everything is different with different ISP. The DNS is another challenge, you need to buy your ‘internet real estate’ and have it work correctly if your IP change.

Security is another challenge but I think it’s easier to notice unusual traffic from your basement server than from a mega-tech-bro-corporation. There’s probably some easy software that could do that.

I would love to do this but I’m afraid of exposing my home IP to the world of spammer and what not. Did you selfhost on a cloud provider or did you do it from your home ? How crazy does the security need to be around Lemmy instance ? I really feel like it’s a beacon of come hack me if you can!

Hahaha good one!

This is the way.
