I’m running into similar issues, do you mind expanding on your solutions?

for those who were wondering like I was:

A majority of the game’s code is under a source-available license on the Anego Studios GitHub.

(from the wikipedia)

Ok that makes sense. As a user I’ve always wondered what it was like from the providers perspective. I always hear people complaining that more and more websites block VPNs, but sounds like it might be better to say more and more websites block scrapers and the VPNs are collateral. Thanks for the insight

Do you know if the scrapers/bots are using the VPN providers? Or if they are just using VPSes in the same datacenter as the VPN, and the datacenter is just NATing all egress traffic to have the same IPv4. In that case I wonder if IPv6 could help distinguish between VPN traffic and bot traffic…

Though ultimately a gate like Anubis or Angie Guardian might be the best solution here so nice work.

Unfortunate but understandable. I believe there are public lists of the IPs of major VPN providers if you wanted to make an exception, but as VPNs are sometimes used for scraping too, I can see why you might not want that.

I do. Do you block all VPNs? Or is it just rate limiting?

Actually now that I check your username I think I have seen your instances before, though it seems like your website is down at the moment. But thank you for service to open source !

Perhaps the more appropriate phrase is “forcing words down their throat”. In this case the words are the ones I quoted

how are you using 128 GB? Genuinely curious because I run over 20 services with only 8 GB

It’s almost like you’re defending storage prices.

Here is where you are pushing an agenda on them. They aren’t defending storage prices they are sharing their personal experience with a solution they offered to OP

They are speaking from personal experience. Why are you forcing an agenda on them. Have you tried running Fortnite + Windows from a hard drive? Because it sounds like they did something that was pretty close

No unfortunately it does not. Sometimes the webpage itself contains a meta tag with the original URL but not always

I have tons of webpages saved using the Firefox built-in page saver, which saves and html file and a corresponding folder for the other resources (images, javascript). Would be cool if these could be imported as well. Though maybe the resource folder can be ignored and the html file can already be imported?

gotcha, that makes total sense

You got your friends and family to switch to XMPP and Jitsi? impressive

what do you mean by “gives back”? To whom? For example, why Jellyfin over any of the *arrs

Could you reference Dockerfile to install it directly on your distro of choice? Or is it not that simple?

Fair enough. It’s a device small enough to keep on your body or close by, so physical security isn’t too big a worry I guess. Just be aware that if somebody does get access to it, they could just pop the microsd card out, write malware to unencrypted partitions, and extradite your sensitive documents once you unlock the LUKS partition. These are the kinds of “evil maid” attacks that secure boot and verified boot were meant to protect against, but unfortunately most SMBCs don’t have those capabilites (only ones I’m aware of that do, are RPi5 and most x86 SMBCS).

As for the firewall, could you use a VPN or tailscale to access your services? Then you could just point the DNS to your private IP. The services would be completely secure from the outside and you wouldn’t have to use a firewall.

Well I’m not trying to start a community around helping people, I’m just a participator. If I wanted to maximize the number of people I could help, I might move back to reddit

edit: a word

Hows the security? I’m guessing no encryption since it’s rather pointless without secure boot or verified boot.
