I’ll notice it’s down when I try to access it and it doesn’t work. If it’s not down, there is nothing to manage 🙃

I have documentation if I need to see everything at a glance. I don’t need a live-updating dashboard for that.

I ask with genuine curiosity, what do you need a CDN for?

We dislike it because nobody needs it. Nobody here is getting DDoS’d to any extend that needs external protection.

I’m talking anecdotally but it seems to me that all the people who ride-or-die Cloudflare are also self-hosters who aren’t very knowledgeable about self-hosting concepts and just heard that cloudflare protects against all these imaginary problems because they sure do sound scary!

but only because I had to look it up twice so now my brain has committed it to memory
I don’t even know what it does

We have private AI

Proton just wants to shill their service of one.

IPv6 addresses are already publicly accessible

No, they are not. You still have a firewall.

The future is now, old man

It’s still bad, and the foundation keeps digging itself into a deeper and deeper hole. Dead project.

I built this for myself https://github.com/aswerkljh/esix-e621-tag-checker
Do you think there’s enough interest to warrant making a site with accounts, so other people can use it?

A fresh Debian container uses 22 MiB of RAM. A fresh debian VM uses 200+ MiB of RAM.
A VM has to translate every single hardware interaction, a container doesn’t.

I don’t want to fuck flies about the definition of ‘huge’ with you, but that’s kind of a huge difference.

Correct.

Side note- people will tell you not to put dockers in an LXC but fuck em. I don’t want to pollute my hypervisor with docker’s bullshit and the performance impact is negligeable.

I recommend you use containers instead of VMs when possible, as VMs have a huge overhead by comparison, but yes. Each service gets its own container, unless 2 services need to share data. My music container, for example, is host to both Gonic, slskd and Samba.

Just reading free resources on the interweb.

osm? I’m not sure what you’re looking for.

I absolutely respect rawdogging your website with just an IP

The author proudly proclaims that they’ve been booted off multiple platforms.

It is a badge of honor. I also have effectively been banned from most mainstream social media, for the same reason; I self-host my shit at home. If you do that, your IP will become tainted in the eyes of big tech, and you’ll find yourself barred from their walled gardens.

They use some of the same kernel functions but they are not the same. They are not comparable. LXCs are used to host a whole separate system that shares kernel with its host, docker is used to bundle external requirements and configs for a piece of software for ease of downstream setup. Docker is portable, LXCs much less so.
