Docker is a set of tools, that make it easier to work with some features of the Linux kernel. These kernel features allow several degrees of separating different processes from each other. For example, by default each Docker container you run will see its own file system, unable to interact (read: mess) with the original file system on the host or other Docker container. Each Docker container is in the end a single executable with all its dependencies bundled in an archive file, plus some Docker-related metadata.

I was in the same boat. Years at Contabo, until they became dogshit and then moved to Netcup. No problems with them so far.

I run an Android TV box on my Smart TV, because I don’t trust them on the internet.

Oh, then I need to give it another try.

Yeah. I have a mini PC with an AMD GPU. Even if I were to buy a big GPU I couldn’t use it. That frustrates me, because I’d love to play around with some models locally. I refuse to use anything hosted by other people.

I am using Let’s Encrypt. Cloudflare is used for DNS validation.

It is that easy, like you said. And with Cloudflare and Caddy you can get TLS for your internal VPN hosts. I love that.

My Vaultwarden is behind a private VPN, but I’ll still update today. Thanks.

But that’s just the Mi box with a different name…

I have no numbers, but with the rise in bad actors I assume that at least the larger hosts who have their own data centers do it.

IP spoofing on the internet won’t get you very far. So, no, this won’t work. I don’t even see a scenario where this would make sense.

Making all questions mandatory means I abandoned the survey at some point. If you want people to respond, don’t make it feel like. a chore.

For binary data that is correct, yes. But that is stuff an instance admin could choose to hide behind a CDN, as it’s easily optimized and cached.

It would put the more popular instances under enormous stress, if they had to serve every single subscriber from any other instance. This would also kill the user experience. It’s much better to serve everything locally, so that an instance admin can scale their resources to the number of users on their instance, a number they know.

I actually am interested to see how the fediverse’s concept of federation scales out, as numbers keep growing. Even with just instances syncing between each other, I feel that this might be too much at a certain point.

I understand that, but his instance will get all the posts and comments he subscribes to, which will be written to the database every few minutes.

My biggest concern with hosting it on a Pi is storage. SD cards are not made for write-heavy applications like Lemmy. If you want to host it on a Pi, I suggest adding a real hard drive over USB and configure Lemmy to use that for storage.

Protonmail for actual hosting and Cloudflare for free catch-all forwarding.

You can get a 1TB storage box at hetzner.com for €3.81 per month. For about €13 you get 5TB. I was on S3 first and moved to the 1TB box because it’s significantly cheaper.

Just set up a Wireguard server, for example on Oracle’s Always Free tier, and have every server and client join the VPN and then let Jellyfin and whatever only listen on the VPN interface. No need to open your router and you get strongly encrypted traffic.
