The computer itself isn’t the only element that makes up a centralized social media platform. Reddit, for example, isn’t just a random giant server in the middle of a desert; it requires tons of additional costs and inefficiencies to run that business, like entire buildings and hundreds or thousands of people.

When it comes to the electrical impact, concentration matters a lot, too. 100MWH consumed by a single data center stresses the infrastructure far more than the same total amount of power being consumed by 10,000 locations spread around the world.

Quadlets. Auto update and auto rollback if the new image fails to start. Plus easier management overall, too.

Yeah. I just needed to provide a US-based mailing address.

Which is exactly what is demonstrated in the post. 🙃

Thanks! I like to keep things simple. The colors are based on Counter Strike 1.6. 😁

And if you’re into the classic styling, my homepage is a direct homage to my old 2000s sites.

True, but this is specifically about scripts you think you know, and how curl bash might trick you into running a different script entirely.

Yep! That’s what the post shows.

I created a live demo file, too, so that you can actually see the difference based on how you request the file.

Ah. I tried /feed.xml and /feed.rss, but didn’t think to check just /feed/

Did you find an RSS feed? I didn’t see one.

I have tried to use Adguard Home’s DNS rewrites as well as custom query filters to catch local requests for sub.domain.tld and point them instead to Unraid.IP.Address, but this does not resolve.

According to the logs you posted, it’s resolving just fine, the server is just refusing the connection.

What you’re trying to do is a pretty typical setup, and one that I use myself (except that I ditched AGH for a simpler set up).

Internal DNS points to the internal address of the reverse proxy, external DNS points to the external address (both are the same of your using ipv6).

You just need to look into why the server is refusing the connection. Anything in the logs?

Yeah, but there’s no compose file for the converter. How can you possibly run a single python script without docker+compose?

The config files should be in the volume you mounted in your NPM container. Probably /data/cong.d/. You can either edit them like normal nginx configuration files (NPM just runs normal nginx in the background), or you can copy them to a standard nginx instance.

Looks like most of that install script is just creating a letsenceypt cert for you. If it’s not working, you can probably just create one yourself or use a wildcard cert if you already have one.

The rest is just an nginx instance being used to proxy a connection. If you’re already using NPM, anyway, you might as well just use that. No reason to run extra instances.

Since you’re asking on the Fediverse, an Activitypub server would be an obvious choice.

Git repos would be another good (and easy) choice.

In my opinion, “self-hosted” means that you host it yourself.

Running services in the cloud (i.e. someone else is hosting it) isn’t the same as hosting it yourself.

Just have fun, though. Not everyone is in a situation where they can self host. Just do what works for you.

“Nice” is entirely subjective. I think my site is nice, but someone else might think it’s garbage.

I use Hugo to generate my site. It’s not wysiwyg, but it supports markdown for pages, which is even simpler than html. It also has a live server mode, where you can see changes immediately.

The community has a created whole gallery of themes (templates) that you can use. It might be worth looking through the gallery to see if you think any of them look “nice” to you.

I’ve mentioned this before, but I’ll say it again: I like the concept, but I can’t help but feel that the presentation has been consistently poor.

The earlier releases left a sour taste for some by highlighting connections to cryptocurrency, and now it’s literally being rebanded to “bitsocial”? With Bitcoin being the widest known cryptocurrency in the world, it’s definitely not alleviating the concerns that this is some sort of cryptoscam.

I recently added Anubis and its validation rate is under 40%. In other words, 60% of the incoming requests are likely bots and are now getting blocked. Definitely recommend.

The question is kind of flawed, though. They list Linux, a kernel, in a list of OSes.
Either just list kernels, Linux, BSD, Windows NT, etc; or just list OSes, Debian, Fedora, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Trunas, Windows Server 2025, Windows XP, MacOS, etc.

Mixing the two together just creates weird results. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The Nest ones? I haven’t seen anything online of folks successfully flashing one. The first steps would probably be to solder on a USBC port and see what kind of access you can get over serial. There’s a picture of a Nest board (not the Pro) here, as well as info on what appears to be the correct usb connector. The OP also mentions that the Nest is lacking the developer button, but my guess would be that the function is still accessible by shorting the correct TPs. It doesn’t seem like that OP ever went through with the project, though, so maybe you’ll be the first!
