So it doesn't need any port forwarding, and works on CGNAT? How the "NAT hole punching" works? Both clients connect to something on IPFS?
Afaik, for DHT with torrent, clients need to know at least one tracker, what is the "tracker" here? Something on IPFS? Who am I sending my IP addresses?
How much overhead does this add to speed? I love with Wireguard, that it's barely noticeable, really close to p2p speeds, OpenVPN was awful in this regard.
Grab is just one of the corporate contributors of OpenStreetMap, Grab's "own map" is not theirs, it's ours, "OpenStreetMap contributors" is the copyright holder, and copyright managed by the OpenStreetMap Foundation.
Grab is a Gold corporate member of the foundation, it means it pays EUR 15000 annually. You can see other corporate members here.
This whole article sounds like an ad for Grab. More technological info about how Grab employees contribute to the map on the OSM wiki: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Grab
Edit:
One more thing about Grab: they bought the Google Streetview alternative Kartaview in 2019 from Telenav. Kartview had a FOSS Android client, its old version is still on Fdroid. After the takeover Grab still published source changes and releases to Github, but Fdroid compatibility was broken at one point. In 2022 they changed the license of Kartaview, it's not open source anymore...
So it's the classic corporate take on open projects... if they could they would close down OSM and their data, but it seems like at the moment they get far more for that 15000 EUR. The wording of the article hints this, they call it "their" map...
While they support the project financially and contribute back and build nice things on top of the open data, the relationship can remain healthy between an open project and a big, for profit company, there are a lot of good examples for that. But the history of this company is a bit shady in parts, and we have seen things go wrong multiple times...
Those are update services. Upgrading your os is a basic security measure nowadays. You recommend to sacrifice some security because of a minor inconvenience. It's alright if you can live with that tradeoff, but please don't recommend it on the internet. Windows assumes a user is not knowledgeable enough about this topic, so it's enabled for them.
Other hint, because it seems you are also not very knowledgeable about this topic, usually you can disable these things with group policies if you really want to, so you don't have to run it after each boot. Or you can also set up a scheduled task or create a service with nssm.
Excel is the one I don't hate, all alternatives suck way more. Active Directory is also ok, but you have to click more than in a moba game, it can become annoying.
It would be hard to get the context, and you could totally misunderstood the thread, e.g. from your hidden comment everyone get that replies are sarcastic, but you don't.
Maybe an "temporarily unhide blocked user's comment and replies" button to show the whole thread.
Option for default comment sorting. you can change the default sort only for posts, but not for comments, comments always sorted by Hot, and you have to manually change it each time you open comments.
In Voyager you can set this up, but it would be useful in the webui as well.
Fort Tolukko's unusual phallic layout is a function of the immediate topography.
If you are looking for deliberately phallic historic floor plans, the most well known is the Oikema House of Pleasure (a brothel) by Claude-Nicolas Ledoux from 1780 (not built unfortunately, as most of his other plans)
I have several addresses at cock.li. Uptime is not the best, around 98%, but free. According to their policy they don't collect any personal data, but they comply with legal requests. https://cock.li/help
You can select from a lot of domains, some of them ar normal like firemail.cc or airmail.cc, some of them are funny like aaathats3as.com, some of them are edgy like cocaine.ninja or national.shitposting.agency, some of them are racist like nuke.africa or hitler.rocks
but I don’t see how what I am proposing would make things more difficult?
Now when a user reports a troll, the report goes to the moderators of the community. But in special cases the admins of the user instances should deal with banning. So the admins of the community instances have to deal with reports, but the solution is at the hand of the user instance admins. It's the same as dealing with users from other instances, but an edge case.
My recommendations would be something like this: (I'm just a random user, so it's just my point of view)
Shut down the fully inactive instances. Noone will even even notice it
Merge the semi active communities to a handful of instances, like sports and technology... . I've seen active communities move instances, it would be possible, take a look how !europe@feddit.de migrated to !europe@feddit.org. Give enough time for subscribers to notice and subscribe to the new one.
Allow registration of moderators on these instances, so they can work around the current limitations of moderation tools. Maybe an invite only solution or something like this.
You could find help more easily if you look for admins for 3-4 instances instead of for 18 instances.
This would be useful for you and other admins, because you would have to admin much less number of instances. They would be still considered small instances, compared to big one, so you still not at the "too big to fail" level. For users it would help community discovery, there are overlap between followers of similar topics, e.g. I have friends who follow both European football and NBA at the same time, I read both selfhosting related topics and about general tech support, etc...
I don't like this kind of community/user instance because 2 instances have to deal with the same problem. E.g. a rogue user can troll on most community instances until they are banned by their user instance.
The instance fragmentatios is not as big issue as it's quite easy to create new accounts. There was a thread about this some days ago here, I also use different accounts on different instances for different topics.
If a moderator is from a different instance, can they effectively moderate? So isn't it a problem if all moderators would be from different instances?
I remember after the exodus community discovery in Lemmy was hard, and it made sense to create instances like these. But nowadays with Lemmy Explorer and with multiple community promo communities I think it's not really hard to find the topics you are interested in.
Interesting, it's on AUR, I will try it.
