I would never trust a phone with Graphene pre installed. I suppose you can check the hash on boot, but to be completely sure that you’re secure, you should install it yourself.

Surprisingly, Craigslist is rather active in my area. It’s still not as active as marketplace, but it makes it possible to get by without having an FB account.

I just randomly checked the exchange today and noticed that it went way up. Nuts.

just been cycling through them over and over again, if someone wanted to block them for curation, they should not have had a problem to do so by now. And I do have plenty that I don’t post from for comm making.

It’s good that you’ve narrowed it down, but cycling through them will continue to cause people to think you’re somehow a spam network.

You’d be surprised, Ive definitely had people ask me about instances that I’ve posted from. Especially funnier named ones like toast.ooo

I’m not asking for hard data, to be clear, but I would still argue that for the amount of people that see your posts (a lot, since you post a lot), the amount of people asking you questions about your instances is tiny. Most users don’t even comment, so the math there doesn’t really add up.

A big reason a crosspost won’t show, is if the other post is on a comm that isn’t federated with your instance or hasn’t pulled that specific post yet

But leaving a link to the original post would always show. Just like boost automatically does. You can see an example in this post: https://infosec.pub/post/40397999

basically by interconnecting instances I mean I’m encountering comms that the instance hasn’t federated with yet because nobody has subscribed from their instance to it. And nobody on that instance can see content from that comm until someone subscribes to it

I mean, that’s fine, but you don’t need to post from the account do to that. It doesn’t even need to be named with your username since you’d never post with it to begin with. It’s already an invisible action. So again, it’s not necessary to make your username seemingly associated with negative views such as spam networks or ban evasion to help instances with this. The cons still outweigh the pros.

Yea, but a big difference is, none of my accounts are actually banned from anywhere

It’s a low bar, to be honest.

I agree with you regarding Lund, however you aren’t floating these instances around in a positive way. A positive way would be much more organic and ideally you’d only post from one to really give it the positive energy it might deserve.

To be very clear here, I did not call you a spam network or spammer nor did I intend to do so. I said that it’s what your accounts look like at first glance to users that don’t know who you are. Lividweasel is saying this very thing, that they thought you were a spammer of some kind at first. This, and your unintended side effect of making Lemmy more challenging to curate, is really the main thing I’ve mentioned time and time again. I’m glad you’re at least willing to acknowledge that it’s making it more difficult for users to curate their feeds.

I do not agree that you’re boosting other instances simply by posting from them, and I don’t think the side effect you’re creating is worth the price. Further, I would argue that most users typically do not pay attention to the instance a user is from, especially when simply upvoting a post.

I also still don’t understand why you have to use the accounts you create communities with. Why not pick a primary and only post with that account? It would eliminate the “side effect” if you did that one simple thing.

The cross posts do not show properly in my case, only sometimes do I see them on your posts. Luckily, clients like Boost add a link to their original post when I cross post. It makes the cross post always show. You can see how buggy Lemmy is regarding baked in cross post links, since almost everyone above is saying that they can’t see that in their app. Why not add your own baked in link so that everyone can see that it’s a cross post?

What do you mean “better interconnecting smaller instances”? If it’s through cross posting, I doubt it, seeing as you don’t include the cross post link for maximum effect.

I also agree with lividweasel in that I grew to have a negative view on your army of accounts. It’s not necessarily your posts, but rather the way you post with dozens of accounts. Not saying that’s deserved, but if it happened to two of us, how many others get the same views? That can easily be fixed by simply posting from one account, instead of seeming like a spam network or ban evader. The only other user that I’ve seen do this type of thing is Monk, and I know your views of him.

Why use so many accounts? Don’t give me the “I’m supporting smaller instances” take. It’s not supporting smaller instances when you make them look like they’re part of your spam network. If it’s to create communities on them, why not just post to them specifically? Why post to one of the larger instances with a million accounts?

It only serves to make it look like you’re a spam network while also making it next to impossible to block your posts. Users will try to block you, think they’ve successfully curated their feeds, only to have you turn up again. It’s not a great Lemmy experience.

It also is not a good look to strip any reference to the OP, cross posts exist for a reason. It just makes it look like you’re stealing people’s posts and trying to make them your own.

I’m aware, but it should have been part of their build system and they should have, at the very least, had alarms for this.

That’s what alarming is for.

Like dgdft said, if you’re using certbot, it should typically be running on the machine that your endpoints are hosted on. Enterprise solutions don’t require this, but they have other means of deploying certificates automatically and alarming if they are unable to, before they expire. My organization has dashboards showing which certs expire and when, and it triggers alarms at least a month before anything goes wrong.

High stakes automation should always have alarms on error, and since certs have set expiration dates baked into them, you can alarm far before anything goes wrong. Apparently, Riot didn’t have that.

Also, more frequent renewals make it so that people are less likely to forget it exists. Because of that, along with the possible security ramifications, 2 to 10 year certs should never be used, in my opinion. A 10 year cert will always get kicked on to the next team and it’s very possible for things to fall through the cracks.

What makes you think I don’t do this on embedded devices? I’m not about to dox my self with specifics, but I do this exclusively for embedded hardware as my job. We even do it for devices not directly attached to our network. It’s really not difficult so long as you have control of your enterprise hardware (which, you should, unless your management is terrible at their jobs). Hell, even the routers we use have this functionality built in, failure alarms and all.

If this is a problem for you, it’s probably at an organizational level, and not a technical issue.

I work in DevOps, this is one of the easier things to automate. It’s common for certs to be issued on a 90 day basis these days, no way that would be maintainable without automating.

People have been saying this for a year, and the line only keeps going up.

I know it works with Home Assistant and doesn’t work with gadgetbridge (as far as I can tell). My hope is that eventually Gadgetbridge will be able to send my health stats (through Health connect) to my HA install.

If you end up owning a home (or have parents that own one and won’t be able to manage in their old age), general home maintenance and repair skills can save a fuck ton of money. Things like learning how to do drywall repair or replacement, fixing pipe leaks, or framing (if you’re feeling a little extra) can go a long way. I learned electrical as well, but I’m hesitant to recommend this one unless you know what you’re doing (you can burn down your house, or worse, die).

I did a bathroom remodel that would have cost a fortune to have contractors come in, as it required drywall, plumbing, and electrical. Labor costs have skyrocked in my area, it probably would’ve cost me over $15k if I hired out. In the end, I probably paid a few thousand dollars along with a large portion of my hairline.

Is this similar to the built in KDE night light?

They obviously don’t or they wouldn’t exist.

Got it, so in your case, if it applies to your argument, it’s possible and works “every time ever”, and if it goes against your argument, it doesn’t exist and no one is boycotting.

You are not arguing in good faith, and only want to be right in this instance.

I’m sure you’ve never bought a display, GPU, or computer with HDMI, and I’m sure you’ve advocated for your friends and family to stop buying anything with HDMI certification. Right?

How does a subscription compare to TV purchases? How does that one instance of politically driven consumer action equate to “every time ever”? Have you heard of Nestlé? People have boycott them forever and they still exist. Why?

…extremely well? Can you provide an example of the contrary?

Can you provide evidence of it working extremely well?

Private space works slightly differently especially when it comes to folder organization. Because of that I actually still prefer Shelter, personally.
