Here we go with this normie shit again.

Use Startpage.

Lemmy: “Photos of cats? Sorry, this is the argument room, Mastodon is down the hall.”

You guys just discuss this using systemd like nothing is wrong!

Maybe your experience with personal experience is not the reality for everyone, how about that?

…yeah, I’ve never had any issues, personally. I run a Gotosocial instance, XMPP and a Synapse fork publicly.

Update, lock your shit down and use a firewall is all I can tell anyone. My SSH isn’t even open to the web, I have to go in via wireguard to access any administration.

Right: People that have never heard of it

…t-that’s us

The number one rule of selfhosting unbound. Make two.

You won’t be happy one morning if you don’t. I run unbound with adblocking on OpenWRT, but if my router dies, my whole network does anyway, so… Eh.

Beats me, I only browse reddit over TOR.

…and lemmy.

The VC money won’t let Matrix die. The community support won’t let XMPP die.

I know which I respect more.

I use XMPP, and the original idea was for it to be a family chat and a way to securely ask for things on Jellyfin.

No one uses it.

What’s better?

No one cares. They know it’s a hassle to ask for media. They know they can only ask me in person if they don’t use it. They just won’t bother installing a client. Can’t be bothered.

Oh well, I can’t be asked, then. So we sit in this perpetual state of tug of war. I can’t be contacted, it’s complained about, the situation is explained again, they complain again, and still never resolve the situation.

Going on three years now.
