How has that been going?
I’m trying to selfhost some Lemmy communities just for fun :)
Buddhist, researcher, FOSS, Linux, selfhosting enthusiast, plantbased, anarchism and MLM interested.
Trying to be nice. I really dislike the Reddit style aggressive comments. If you are rude I will block and ban you.
How has that been going?
Yes, already have. It seems they don’t care.
Well, I am asking also security wise. I know most schools snoop. Can they somehow see traffic through ssh or VPN? Or just the protocols, logs, dates, etc
It is my own device, but yes utilities and security is their own.
I have a server in my school office. I currently only use it to backup important files. I am asking if running public or private containers on it would be safe and acceptable.
Great point about IoT
My understanding is that scrappers check every domain and subdomain. You’re making it harder but not impossible. Everything gets scrapped
It would be better if you also did IP whitelisting, rate limiting to prevent bots, bot detection via cloudflare or something similar, etc.
I was auto banning all countries but my own but now I’m hosting one resource that has an audience including Chinese…
Good advice outside of this use case! :)
Anything else?
Thanks!
Mailbox.org is a commonly recommended service beside Tuta and Proton. I was going to switch from Proton to Tuta to have more custom domain emails but it doesn’t allow service outside of its apps. Mailbox.org is cheaper and allows 50 custom domains :)
That’s not how web scrappers work lol. No such thing as obscurity except for humans
I quickly quit them because they don’t do IMAP for “security” reasons, ie walled garden, and their support requires you paying. After canceling my membership I literally couldn’t contact support unless I paid again.
Thanks! What’s a proton simple login? In this use case could I use my name.com domain? I think mailbox can do this!
True, hence another reason I switched to mailbox.
I guess my question is more email naming and domain.
And what could actually happen? You learn through doing!
Sorry, when out of the house I only use web not clients.
? How does putting something before it break it? It most certainly doesn’t.
You could put authentik in front of it too
I feel like anyone who doesn’t feel like this is too sane.
I searched and searched about this and every response of theirs I found gave the same speech about IMAP not being as safe as their apps.
