  • Solid setup! Thanks for sharing.

  • I think it also has that, but normally it uses an even easier concept of pods that basically wrap multiple containers into a meta container with it's own internal networking and name space, and that does exactly what you want.

  • Or you can use Podman, which integrates nicely with Systemd and also utilizes all the regular system means to deal with log files and so on.

  • Yeah, Forgejo and Gitea. I think it is partially a problem of insufficient caching on the side of these git forges that makes it especially bad, but in the end that is victim blaming 🫠

    Mlmym seems to be the target because it is mostly Javascript free and therefore easier to scrape I think. But the other Lemmy frontends are also not well protected. Lemmy-ui doesn't even allow to easily add a custom robots.txt, you have to manually overwrite it in the reverse-proxy.

  • It seems any somewhat easy to implement solution gets circumvented by them quickly. Some of the bots do respect robots.txt through if you explicitly add their self-reported user-agent (but they change it from time to time). This repo has a regularly updated list: https://github.com/ai-robots-txt/ai.robots.txt/

    In my experience, git forges are especially hit hard, and the only real solution I found is to put a login wall in front, which kinda sucks especially for open-source projects you want to self-host.

    Oh and recently the mlmym (old reddit) frontend for Lemmy seems to have started attracting AI scraping as well. We had to turn it off on our instance because of that.

  • This is purely a Mastodon issue. They have been promising groups support for a while now, but it seems very low priority.

  • Just Because

  • Please ask the Greenlanders nicely first. For a life time supply of marple sirup they might even agree to join you šŸ˜…

  • That completely misses the point I was trying to make you understand. But I guess you are a bit too deep in the bezzle to understand it (yet).

  • Yet you fail to see the forest for the trees...

    A system that makes it so trivial to scam people, is a system made for (and likely by) scammers, even if it has other good ideas as well.

  • The Youtube algorithm that pushes videos (and thus advertisement income) is very opague and there is a kind of mystic cargo cult by many creaters on Youtube trying to game it (but they usually end up being manipulated by Google instead). Suggestions to move outside of this cult is often met with a lot of hostility as they don't want to endanger their imagined connection with the algorithmic gods.

  • Uh, did your account get hacked?

    That's like literal AfD propaganda you are repeating here.

    And while there is some very limited truth to the first (but he has had similar competences on state level for many years), the "opposition newspaper" is like an actual extreme right wing rag and the legal process is still ongoing, the courts just ruled that the minister of interior overstepped her official competence by trying to shut it down in the legal grey area way she tried doing it.

  • Afaik the "horn" of a narwhal is a tooth though.

  • Having experience with running both, I would recommend GoToSocial instead šŸ˜…

    Akkoma isn't too heavy, but the setup is a bit convoluted and there is almost no support what so ever if you run into problems.

    Hubzilla has interesting features, but use as an AP fediverse instance is an afterthought at best. It kinda works, but if that is the part you are most interested in, I would not use Hubzilla for it.

  • I hear lemmy.ml admins are really against sinophobia. I wonder if they will act on such blatantly anti-asian slurs being used šŸ¤”

  • Apparently "sperm donor" is the more correct term regarding his more recent children if rumors are true.

  • Pocketbase does a lot of the heavy lifting, but yes it is a very nice project.

  • Somewhat off-topic: you are now using the iGPU of the 5600g to do video transcoding instead of the nvidia one?

  • I don't think that's a serious problem as people that have so little interest that they leave because of that, would stop using it anyway sooner rather than later.

    Of course the migration needs to be at least as easy as on Mastodon. Lemmy is still far from that.

  • I think this could work if it was a kind of demo instance that after some weeks or so would show increasingly annoying popups to switch to another instance.

    The official Mastodon app kinda follows that idea with mastodon.social, just that the annoyance isn't intentional but a result of their bad moderation and thus spam problem.
