Need help getting started
  • You’ll need something to actually host the site. I usually stick with nginx but that’s just preference. Once you get that running you can edit files for the site & start looking into some guides or tutorials for nginx.

    I don’t recommend putting your site on the general internet. It’s just going to be attacked & can compromise your network. I have local web services but use a WireGuard VPN setup so that I can access when I’m not home, & not allow access to the internet.

  • Self-hosted diary
  • I don't think it will have everything you're looking for, but I really like DailyTxT. I do have a couple other note-taking apps & seeing if I want to replace DailyTxT with Obsidian, but I like the web-hosted & straight-forwardness of DailyTxT.

  • How are you making services remotely accessible?
  • Another response for "VPN". I don't have any of my self-hosted services exposed publicly & use WireGuard with the on-demand settings so that whenever I'm not at my house, I am automatically connected.

    Some users did mention that things like TV's, etc outside your network wouldn't be able to connect, but that hasn't been an issue for me, since I don't use my services like that.

  • Gemini PDA and first use thoughts
  • Thanks for posting about this... it's a reminder that I should take mine back out to play with =] Or the Cosmo Communicator that I also have.

  • Why Apple added protection against quantum computing when quantum computing doesn’t even exist yet
  • I don't get why this is a question people have. Should Apple have waited to include quantum-secure encryption until after they're already able to crack messages? Of course they're going to release stronger encryption knowing it will be needed in the future.

  • Trump again vows to be a day-one ‘dictator’ in Iowa town hall
  • I forget exactly when the primaries end, but this is preparation for this year’s election in November.

  • Trump again vows to be a day-one ‘dictator’ in Iowa town hall
  • It’s still the primaries where the candidate for the parties are being picked. trump is part of the republican party but is likely to receive the nomination because apparently we learned nothing during the four years this trash ran the country, took foreign money, insurrection, treason, etc.

  • Can somebody help me understand the recent issues that the manga reader Tachiyomi is facing and how to bypass them?
  • Ah, okay. I thought I was going to pull up the site & see the takedown note or something. I didn’t realize they were able to make some changes & keep it around.

  • I'm sorry what?!?!?
  • You’re surprised?

  • Is it safe to use Signal via Beeper?
  • Yeah, definitely. Maybe I'll have some time this weekend to play around with the server & some dummy accounts to see how it all goes.

  • Is it safe to use Signal via Beeper?
  • They do have a self-host option, but I haven’t had the chance to dig into it yet: GitHub: beeper/self-host

  • Add Lemmy 2FA into 2FAS for iOS
  • If you copy the link does it start with top otpauth:// or something like it? You may be able to copy that link, go into your 2FA app & paste that in, or parse out the Secret part to paste in.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • That would be surprisingly coherent of him 😜

  • New "it's all good" campaign by Google targeted at iPhone users
  • If I’m going with Android, it’s going to be a custom ROM without Google services. F-Droid FTW =]

  • Google wants iPhone switchers to know 'It's all good' on Android [Video]
  • Yup, “all good” because of the information they’re keeping on you… I’m not saying Apple is perfect my any means, but Google makes money off user data.

    On Android i go with custom ROM’s & no Google services. F-Droid is my go-to =]

  • What's your favorite Psychic type Pokémon?
  • It helps that they were from Gen 1 when I started playing. Psychic & Ghost have always been two of my favorite types, & I can even remember the show episodes with Sabrina & the Abra evolutions. I may need a little longer to think about why these 2-3 really stand out to me more than the others.

  • Poll: What OS do you run Plex on?
  • Another for Ubuntu, & via Docker.

  • What's your favorite Psychic type Pokémon?
  • I have to go with Abra or Kadabra. They have always been some of my favorites.
