There is no such software (that works kind of reliably). I'd love to be proven wrong, but I've looked into it enough that I'm quite confident it does not exist

I live in Lyon, and I'm soooo happy to hear about this ! 🤩

I see both mastodon and lemmy

How about putting it at the top of the article, or using the dedicated "editor's note" button they put right below the title ?

Found it thanks

Why did they burry what's arguably the most important piece of information at the very end though ?

I'm not seeing this editor's note (at least on mobile). Where is it ?

Edit 2: never mind, found it

How reliable is this website ? I see clickbaity headlines from it all the time around here and the Wikipedia page is mostly empty

Are you talking about this one German instance that did not want to get in trouble with German laws ? That's the neat part about the fediverse, each instance can have their own rules, and one instance can update its rules to comply with local laws without requiring other instances to do the same

I roughly agree with everythibg you said, but this is a "Reddit" community after all. What did you expect when you subscribed to it ?

Reminds me of the time when I bind mounted my home dir in a chroot, then rm -rfed the chroot when I no longer needed it...

Just trying to debug some weirdness with outgoing activities from my server, looks like it's back to normal since you saw my comment and replied to it ;)

To anyone saying it's dumb not to use a forge, have you heard of a little open source project called Linux ? It does not use a forge either

There are a few things I don't like about this scoring system :

• Why is there a "Top Provider Content Share" metric if its gonna score the same as the "Top Provider User Share" every time ?
• Why is the Top Provider Content Share not higher than the user share ? For instance, emails usually have at least one sender and one recipient, making it twice as likely that at least one of them is using gmail. If an email has 10 recipients across 10 different providers, each provider has a copy of the data
• Why is ease of hosting a mail server rated so well ? How is "leveraging email hosting services" decentralized in any way ?
• Why are we using a random repo created a few hours ago by a random github user as a reference ?

Self hosting emails is a pain, but I've been doing it for almost 2 years and I do not have any of these issues. I'm not an expert either, I just thoroughly followed a tutorial to properly configure dmarc, dkim and everything else and everything just works (I just hope I'm not jinxing it by writing this :D )

If you are interested in web technologies, you can turn your python program into a local API using something like Flask, then make a web interface using HTML/JS.

Alternatively, if your databases are on a filesystem that supports snapshots (LVM, btrfs or ZFS for instance), you can make a snapshot of the filesystem, mount the snapshot and backup thame database from it. This will ensure the backup is consistent with itself (the backed up directory was not written to between the beginning and the end of the backup)
