If you're wondering why I'm crossposting .ml content or for an account listing of accounts used for it, please see the bottom of this megathread

  • There's plenty of room on the Threadiverse for both new and historical posts. Especially historical posts that are still relevant today.

    And all the apparatuses discussed in the video are all not just likely still in operation, but expanded upon AND currently under the control of one of the most authoritarian presidents in US history. It's more relevant now then ever before and worthy of continued discussion

  • I crosspost all good non-tankie content

    This post is a privacy problem that is absolutely pervasive in all dystopian authoritarian or authoritarian-trending states to include China, Russia, US, NK, UK and now worrisomely the broader EU

    I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to help vitilize non-.ml comms and make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don't want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some active niche comms.

    Megathread on the issue

    Some highlights from the link:

    Dessalines, head .ml admin, lead Lemmy dev actively spreading genocide denialism https://sh.itjust.works/post/61371958

    .ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068

    "If you don't support Russia then you just don't understand geopolitics" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

    "Don't worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167

    "See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn't count!!" ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342

    "NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035

    General negative sentiment to other instances who haven't "seen the way" yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510

    And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can't even put them all here because this comment would be really long.

    I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda

    On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like "Lemmy? Isn't that the place with a bunch of tankies?" Or "Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left". The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.

  • What in the world are you talking about LMAO I have never encountered you before.

    If so, then go ahead and post a screenshot of this supposed DM including full username (I have had imposter problems in the past)

  • News to me lmao

  • Wut? How have you come to that conclusion LMAO I'm one of the top anti-tankie anti-ml users around lolol

  • How does it (thumb) type?

  • Maybe, I would pay decent money for something that's comfortable to thumb type on for coding/terminal work from bed

  • Doesn't look like it, but you could expose your archive as an IMAP with something like Dovecot https://github.com/dovecot/core and then you could have this latch on to that

  • Deleted

    Solus 4.9 Released

    Jump
  • Oop put in the wrong comm, deleting

  • I've been fighting with the image proxying for days now, I just gave up on this post since the meat and potatoes is the text post itself

  • Lmao, it's less about the deception and more about where it led to 😂

  • Idk if you've just been under a rock and never noticed (which is admittedly possible, because Reddit just has so many people it's easier to never notice them) or are just being intentionally deceptive. But tankies are absolutely on Reddit, they have multiple subreddits there. Hell, Lemmy started because dessalines got perma banned from Reddit because of their tankie crap and literally did the bender meme

    I have personally been asked about the tankies on Lemmy and others have seen it too, it absolutely does come up

  • listen here, you little shit

  • For just one person limited use like that, i'd just use a VPN for whenever you're away from home.

    But you could learn a bit about hardening and expose it anyways if you want, I personally just want to be able to access my stuff from anywhere so I spend a decent amount of time hardening.

    It's not too hard, you really just need a certain baseline to defend against script kiddies and bot mass scanners. Unless you're a business or a high value target or something that'll attract the skills of "real" hackers

  • Lolol I just needed that yesterday

  • I kind of love it though it's like tje fine wine of the internet getting worse and worse yet better and better with time.

    Each repost adds another layer of artifact and grit until you can barely make out what the original even meant. It's been screenshotted and cropped and saved and shared, on Facebook and Reddit and Xitter who cared? From phone to phone and site to site the pixels crumble day and night!

    The colors fade, the text grows blurry, reposted fast, reposted hurry! Through Discord servers, Instagram feeds and Fedi-instance's it spreads like mold, like digital weeds! One hundred times! One thousand more! The quality drops right through the floor! And yet we laugh and yet we share this crusty meme beyond repair!

    So let it crumble, let it fray, this meme will live another day. For in its crust we find the truth, the internet's eternal youth!

  • That's one problem it solves, but NPM is really just a frontend for Nginx Reverse Proxy.

    And a reverse proxy is one of the basic security steps you need to take when exposing something to the open Internet. You want everything forwarded through it and spend most of your time hardening it and the server it's running on (and it should be the only thing running on that server, all other services should be running elsewhere, ideally)

  • Just as the prophecy foretells!
