  • While people will not like you monetizing their posts, it is ultimatly something that only runs on your website. Of course if you federate out the posts people make on your website, then people will be able to access them on other sites without seeing the ads.

    Injecting ads in the posts themselves, and federating them out to other servers however would be a different matter and likely get your server defederated relatively quickly, especially if you try to track impressions through embedding images or so.

  • That is not how it goes when millions of dollars are involved 🤦

    Normalized Fascism in Open Source: $12 Million Given to DHH

  • Yes, I am aware. But that is not very helpful if you want to host something publicly or even just want it accessible from the random wifi hotspot you might use that more likely than not is IPv4 only.

  • Like literally all mobile (4/5G) internet connections are behind CGNAT, as is Starlink for example.

    For landline internet connections it is indeed uncommon.

  • If it is really only a private server for your friends, and they are not completely computer illiterate, then a Wireguard VPN or similar seems like the safest option.

    But generally speaking it isn't that big of a deal to temporarily open a port and forward it to a game server if you want to play a round online.

    A VPS is not really cost effective for that kind of usage. Maybe one with hourly billing like this: https://tierhive.com/

  • "If you use Omarchy, the most important takeaway is simple: don't"

    There, fixed that for you.

  • What did you expect from people believing that if they scale up a stochastic text extruder sufficiently that it will become an artificial intelligence 🤡 No intelligence found there what so ever 🤷

  • This is the most relevant part: https://fsfe.org/news/2026/news-20260825-01.html#copyright-infringement

    Software produced by agentic workflows almost inevitably reproduces copyrighted works for common functions like database access without the person using the LLM knowing. This makes the software produced as such non-FOSS and a ticking time bomb due to someone using code scanning tools for malicious litigation purposes similar to how patent trolls operate.

  • I would recommend contributing to Veloren, which is already much closer to what you have in mind than this project likely will ever get. Seriously, Veloren is a nice project to contribute to 👍

  • The exact issue that was finally fixed in the above release caused Conduwuinity to fail federation all the time. Synapse never had that issue. Yes, Synapse sucks in other ways, but be careful to think the grass is greener on the other side.

    Slop Debt

  • Hmm, I was hoping the source-code would give some disclosure on LLM use, but it is just a single commit and doesn't mention LLM use. Call me jaded, but that feels a bit like covering your tracks to avoid that topic being raised.

  • Makes e2ee much easier that way.

  • I mean yes, Microsoft and slopcode probably plays a role, but it only got really bad once the LLM mass scraping started, for which I assume Github is also a major target.

    And running your own public git forge is a real PITA these days for similar reasons.

  • Any details as to why the database was suddenly corrupted like that?

  • We have that too. Maybe the new fork that we are using is doing that slightly different from other versions and that somehow breaks in your browser?

  • You realize why it is so hard to keep public git forges online these days, right?

  • The rage baiting left-liberals? Yeah, I suppose 😏
