I can see that. When will you start?

„Simple“

I agree that being active is important and good for you but depending on the circumstances its everything but simple.

I aspire to move a lot but the day being this active becomes easy will he the day. :)

The „maya“ convo strongly reminded me of green hell.

Otherwise it looks cool. The synced wolves need some work I guess. I wishlisted it. Good luck!

Btw. What engine?

Thank you very much! This tool is great indeed!

I solved it with help. My fail2ban filters were too strict.

Not annoying at all.

I‘m running a public instance on two threads and I think 2 gb of ram. A private instance shared with other services on 6 threads and 8 gb of ram. Make of that what you want. :)

I would probably rent a vps which you could extend if needed but start small. With 2 threads and 4 gb of ram at least.

Anecdotal evidence: I run two instances, a private and a public one. Neither uses a lot of resources.

But I get the database thing. Its spiking every couple minutes and a lot every hour. It’s not a big deal if you have 2 threads at least but I can see how it doesnt work for everyone in every scenario.

I‘m glad alternatives exist and I‘m much more positive on AP alternatives than protocol exiles.

Yay! :)))

…we haven‘t been sued by our customers for bad code!

Yes thats due to testing.

Can you prove that?

…

From practical example:

I defederated one instance. Before, I saw content of them, now I dont. I dont know if they can see my content but I dont think they do.

Obviously a sample size of one is not evidence but more of a hint at what might happen.

You can always ask the folks on .ml for they make the software.

You too! :))

Thanks. Good to hear one person gets it. Maybe its because I have answered so many of your comments that you were able to see the joke and others thought I was trying to nag at you for some perceived behavioral code violation or whatever. In any case. Please go on being awesome. Love reading your comments.

So far you‘re doing pretty well in my book. Most comments I read with spot on takes happen to have your name on it.

Nobody’s perfect though. I get it. :)

i struggle to understand the downvotes though. Maybe I worded it strange?

Exactly :)

Opinion: Not if that community advertises itself to know/care about open source. Using a proprietary, privacy unfriendly service which uses predatory marketing to get people to spend money on bs stuff and arbitrarily paywall functionalities is both anti open source and anti people. Its enabling those companies. One could maybe argue for a strict bridge which only server to connect those who resist foss platforms.

I might just visit your post and comment history instead of curating my own feed by now. :) best takes

I appreciate the elaborate response. The intricacies of licensing arent fluent in me and the reminder helps.

Copyleft is cool but for OPs question, I would suggest source available at least. My criterion is that I (or op for that matter) can look at the source code of this project, not everyone on every downstream project.

I‘d also distinguish between in and out licensing. If they want to make a product that is not foss, copyleft wont work so reviewing the code would be the smallest denominator imo although I would not use or recommend their software.

I think open source software has the huge advantage of being auditable. I suggest you and your team audit the entire code to see if anything is harshly wrong in there or you rely on other people doing it with you.

We actually dont know how many backdoors are in proprietary software and we never will until all code is finally forced into the open as it should be.

I will get shit on for this but „rejecting everything where I cant look in the source code“ makes more sense imo from a security standpoint.

The „free“ as in everyone can put in into their software and sell it without contributing back isnt security relevant from my pov (neither do I like that ideology tbf).

That was pretty epic, ngl.
