Easiest solution IMO if you’re already using CloudFlare, even the free version: you can filter out certain countries. Otherwise, there’s probably other alternatives, even open source ones. Good terms to search for with your cloud provider or self hosted software may be middlewares, firewalls, serverless, edge functions, etc.
I kept seeing so many different ones recommended and I kept getting weird issues I didn’t understand with most of them. I don’t often need to make a bootable Linux USB, but every time, Rufus did the job quick and easy.
Rust, because I’m lazy and I want a compiler that helps me out. Performance is a pretty neat bonus.
I’m not sure if that’s what’s expected, but I also prefer an allow list approach to federation, and I answered on the survey that federation is important to me (as opposed to none).
I hope that, if many people answered like me for the same reason, it won’t give the impression that we want implicit federation.
I was wondering whether what felt like common sense to me was the same as what felt like common sense for others, and I see that between us it’s not.
I’m not gonna bother trying to argue with you, I doubt it would be productive in any way, I’m not gonna change your mind. Additionally, you’ve put a lot of words into my mouth and inferred that I believe a lot of things that I really don’t believe, which is a bit upsetting.
If it were the US vs another democratic country, I would feel like that too.
I’m particularly concerned with China (and Russia) because:
I might have a different perspective though. I’m a fairly recent US immigrant from Canada.
Edit: I’d like to add, my tone may come across wrong over written text, I’m just trying to understand people’s overall perspective and whether mine is different, I’m not trying to argue and I’m not upset at you nor any of the commenters I’ve seen on similar posts.
I’m a bit worried about the amount of people I see making this argument whenever I see posts about a TikTok ban/acquisition.
I’m getting the impression that, either:
Am I correct? Is there a nuance I’m missing?
I can understand concerns over point #2 here, but #1 and #3 seem wild to me.
I really like the word you used, code smell. I often have a hard time expressing to co-workers in code reviews why something feels off, it just does.
I’m trying out Kagi a little bit, and it has a federation search mode of some kind. I tried it for a search and it gave me results from Lemmy.
I don’t know yet how Kagi compares to Google in terms of results quality, I barely used it so far. It’s pretty expensive though.
Disclaimer: I don’t know much about securing the container itself. The considerations I discuss here are mostly networking.
What I’ve personally been doing is using k3s with Cloudflare Tunnel (routed using DNS like in this documentation) as an ingress.
With Cloudflare Tunnel, if you create an application in front of it, you can require authentication and add a list of allowed emails.
I could replace k3s with a different Kubernetes distribution, and/or replace Cloudflare Tunnel with a different ingress (e.g., Tailscale Funnel or more common ingresses like nginx).
I understand, I’m a white cis man and I used to feel this way sometimes when reading things like this, but my perspective has since changed.
The way I see it, Beehaw is actively trying to be an inclusive space, as opposed to a lot of other online spaces which really aren’t so inclusive.
My expectation would be that, naturally, POC, women, and lgbtq+ people would hang out more in inclusive spaces than non-inclusive ones, while non-minorities may be evenly spread of even favor non-inclusive spaces. Therefore, I would expect demographics of inclusive spaces to have an overall significantly smaller percentage of non-minorities.
However, some of these numbers look relatively close to national demographics (at-least based on those I see on Wikipedia for the US), and may even have a smaller percentage of minorities than national average. I don’t know much about statistics and I’m not a mathematician, there’s probably all sorts of factors going into why those numbers are the way they are. Still, instinctively, those numbers look unfortunate to me, since they don’t reflect my expectations of a successfully inclusive community.
I hope nobody feels left out.
Awesome, I’m looking for frameworks like this, thanks for sharing.
