  • Safely exposing services to the Internet

    Jump

  • There are even solutions that automate a lot of the configuration for such a setup. I'm using Pangolin for example:https://github.com/fosrl/pangolin

    But you could set up something like this manually if you want more flexibility (pangolin is based on traefic rather than Nginx)

  • Scroll to the bottom of the page. There you'll see who is responsible for this manifesto.

    The group of organisations or people who have signed includes Mastodon and Felix Ableitner, representing Lemmy.

  • I'm fairly sure it can, but that's default behaviour over there, similar to how Mastodon and X/Twitter work.

    Jump

  • Nice to see (some of) my taxes going to improving the Fediverse.

    The Sovereign Tech Agency (previously Sovereign Tech Fund) is an organisation set up by the German government to fund critical open source projects. Mastodon receiving funds therefore means that the German government considers the Fediverse critical infrastructure.

  • Some mobile clients such as Thunder support it. But if you don't use a client that supports the feature, then you're generally expected to put the transcript into the post body.

  • Tech Talk: How Electron went Wayland-native, and what it means for your apps | Electron

    Jump

  • That's only mostly true and more importantly not what this is about. Yes Gnome and Mutter don't support server side decorations. But Electron on Linux uses GTK to construct the application window. And GTK offers client side system styled window decorations. Meaning that electron applications aleady supported decorations that look and feel like server side decorations even if they are not.

    Electron already had some support for client-side decorations, provided by a class called ClientFrameViewLinux which uses GTK to paint convincing native window frames. These look very similar to the ones GNOME used to supply on X11, but they are produced entirely in-framework.

    No, the problem is with custom styled window decorations. Developers who wanted to do CSDs couldn't without major downsides. And that was also true on KDE Plasma, as evidenced by this screenshot from the article you evidently didn't read

    See how the window for VS Code doesn't throw a shadow compared to Dolphin? That's because electron didn't support CSDs properly. And now that it does the window looks like this:

    That's what we are talking about.

  • With Reddit flirting with requiring Age verification, the next Rexit might be around the corner, are we ready?

    Jump

  • For new users the local feed is the recommendation algorithm. If you are on a instance that caters to your interests you will discover stuff that interests you there automatically. If you're not, then you might conclude, that Lemmy has nothing for you and bounce off the platform entirely. This is especially true if you are looking for non-English content.

    The paradoxical situation with federation and instances is that those least likely to understand it are among the more likely to profit from it if they did.

  • I love password based login

    Jump

  • That's what hardware keys are for. Even the cheap lines of fido USB keys (ca $20) can safe passkeys. And your phone can too.

  • Federated End-to-End Encrypted Messaging is Coming Soon

    Jump

  • No it's not. Matrix isn't part of the Fediverse. It doesn't use ActivityPub and there is no interop with any other Fediverse service.

    That doesn't make Matrix bad, it just makes it it's own thing.

  • Mastodon is testing easier ways to get you started in the fediverse

    Jump
    1. Your server is your algorithm. That's what the local feed is for. If you pick a server that caters to your interest, then the local feed becomes a potent discovery tool. That's even more true for non-English communities because English language content is probably going to drown out everything else on the all/global feed

  • Passkeys Explained: The End of Passwords

  • You could also use dedicated hardware to store your keys. Any FIDO USB key will do. I have a Yubikey that cost me less than 30 bucks.

    It's really handy, because I frequently use someone else's device for work. All I have to do is plug it in, press the button on the key and enter the master password for the passkey storage. It's like having a password manager on a USB stick.

  • And they can be hardware based as well. I have a cheap Yubikey USB dongle, which works as a passkey vault as well. Completely OS independent.

  • And if you don't have an unique public IP address, for example because you are behind CGNAT, you can use Pangolin. It tunnels all traffic from your homelab to a VPS via Wireguard and exposes your services via a Traefik reverse proxy. Pangolin also automates the Traefik setup and provides a webui to configure the individual proxies.

    For a VPS I recommended ionos, because they offer servers with unlimited traffic starting at only 1€ per month with server locations in both Europe and the US.

  • This is what I use: https://github.com/fosrl/pangolin

    Creates a wireguard connection from your home server to a vps, which then exposes it to the public using a traefik reverse proxy.
