If you add support for kbin, you’ll probably going to add support for kbin’s microblogging feature. If you added support for kbin’s microblogging, might as well add mastodon support. Heck, might as well add pixelfed support to the mix, why not? Voila, now you have a super federated app.

It’s not 3rd party app developers fault that kbin didn’t have any stable api yet. Now that they fast track the api development, I think we can expect more 3rd party apps coming soon.

Revolt!? That dog is fucking embrace it!

Who cares if it already exists, just make it.

Also consider the possibility when the other, more popular projects got enshittified. Now the fleeing users have an option to switch to your project. It actually happened on one of my side project. I made it because I want to try building my own version of X. It got ~2000 users, but later down the road, X got sold to a new shitty owner that waste no time to enshittify it, and my side project suddenly grow to 20,000 users overnight.

Investors: shut up and take my money!

I just checked my AMD box and tailscale there can consume ~15% of cpu time when the tunnel is under active use. When it’s not used it’s ~1.5%. But it’s a low power old AMD cpu though (AMD G-T56N), so I’m not use if it compares to Ryzen 5. On my intel machine, it’s ~5% when under active use, and idle at ~0.5%.

I’d like to think FMHY was true to their name and didn’t pay for the domain.

On my machine it’s consuming about 0.5% - 1.0% of cpu time, which is higher than zerotier in the same machine (almost zero).

Tailscale does a lot more things than just tunneling though. For example, on default installation it’ll catch all outbound dns request on the machine and route them through MagicDNS (100.100.100.100).

Whelp, nextcloud isn’t known for being fast. I don’t have hundreds of thousands of emails yet so I can’t comment on that, but one thing for sure is as you put more and more data on it, you’ll have to add more CPU and RAM to it or it’ll getting more and more sluggish.

Believe it or not, NextCloud. It actually can work as an email client. And it can sync calendars, contacts and todo list too.

photopea.com is actually pretty great, much easier to use than gimp with similar (or even better) feature set.

Are you using the free domain deal, or are you paying for your .ml domain? I suspect they only revoking those unpaid .ml domains.

Currently, activitypub identity is tied to domain name. Mastodon support migration as long as the old domain is still up during the migration process, but AFAIK Lemmy doesn’t even have a process to migrate an instance to a new domain yet.

Someone should tell Lemmy devs and send them a crate of coffee because it’ll be a race to implement domain migration before all .ml domains got shut down.

It was doubly hilarious when the US was at war with Libya, yet the white house spokesperson and us politicians were still tweeting using bit.ly and ow.ly url shorteners.

A while ago Libya suddenly requires all companies that use .ly domain to have a presence in Libya or have their domain reclaimed by the government. bit.ly (and other internet startups that use .ly domains back then) suddenly found themselves in a precarious position. It was pretty hilarious as .ly TLD was hip back then.

Here is the documentation, pretty bare though: https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_server/oauth2.html

I use keycloak. Pretty steep learning curve, but once properly set up, it can do pretty much anything.

But if you’re in a pinch, NextCloud can act as an OIDC auth provider out of the box.

I just tried installing SmartTube on my Chromecast Ultra today and found out it can pair with YouTube revanced. This fixed my number one issue with revanced where the cast button is not working.

Red Hats / IBM did this to themselves when they decided to kill CentOS. There are rumors that said Red Hat/ IBM was pissed that Rocky won a NASA contract, so they decided to pull the rug, stop releasing RHEL source code to non paying customers, and add clauses to their ToS to terminate contract with customers that redistribute the source code.

But you know what, if Red Hat/ IBM didn’t kill CentOS, Rocky wouldn’t exist. That NASA contract would’ve gone to Red Hat. Oracle Linux wouldn’t be as popular (because people would use CentOS), and SuSE wouldn’t provide free support to Rocky and Alma. Red Hat would still be the open source darling of the linux community, and IBM would still made a buttload of money.

Instead, they got greedy and think that all those CentOS downloads equals to lost RHEL sales (classic piracy equals to lost sales fallacy) and decided to kill CentOS to increase short term profits, which sprung Rocky and Alma (which truly eating their lunch because they also offer enterprise support). Red Hat didn’t learn it’s lesson and double down, and now have burned all of it’s remaining good reputation in the open source community.

Back in the day, we tried to get Reddit unblocked in our country, which blocks porn websites. No amount of arguments can convince the government agency in charge of the block list that Reddit is not a porn site. They probably got tired of us pestering them and send back a whole bunch of screenshots of porns in Reddit to justify the block.

I guess Reddit is a porn site.
