Tangential partial offtopic aside: Unless i’m misunderstanding, you’re setting this up behind your home router and allowing it on your various devices using a VPN. Am i right? Any details, or even better, guides, on how to replicate this setup? I guess the DNS records on Leng are to be able to call services inside your home LAN by name instead of IPs, which is a nice quality of life upgrade.
Here’s a laundry list from one of the Beehaw people, and apparently the devs don’t have any of this as a priority
VERY understandable, requiring a GPU would limit it’s application and spread, i hope a good GPU-less solution is found eventually
I am saving this post for the future, informative! Thanks!
No, no, the seeds of the site’s downfall have been planted by the administration, you gotta remember these sites depend on a tiny amount of power posters, not to mention the moderator contingent, which they pissed off. Not all migrated away, but enough did to hurt the quality of the site, and any that remain will remember. They HAVE lost a lot and haven’t noticed yet. Sites that big will not fall in a day, it will be alive a decade from now, like Livejournal or Slashdot are still alive.
I believe there’s people already working on that, but no idea how they’re doing these days
I insist, we need a nomadic identities thing on Fedi, you create your user in one instance and now you can log in on any federated server on any of the ActivityPub services, maybe that Zot protocol thing or something on those lines
Just tried to create an account on fedia.io, which is the biggest of the mbin instances (at just about a bit above 4K users, so not THAT much), and it just could NOT take the registration, all i get is “429 Too Many Requests”, after multiple tries. I suspect that says the instance is woefully underpowered for the traffic it’s handling
