What is a linux apologist?

Thanks I never understood what a server was in discord…

I would say that that’s is what you want. We don’t have a survey on user intentions.

I for instance would like to block furry instances, as an example, but I have nothing against their users. I don’t care if someone is into furry, I simply don’t want to see it myself

It’s far less common than linux oses… In any type of servers, including data storages. It is THE major target because it is a bad OS, nowadays primarily used by companies that haven’t a good IT for the typical file shares used by tech illiterates easily victims of social engineering attacks. It’s a explosive combination that results in that stat… Practically 100 % of successful ransomware attacks on servers is on windows servers, despite overall being much less used than competitors

To be fair Microsoft has never cared much about security. See the windows server (a relatively niche os on servers) second entry in this stat: https://www.statista.com/statistics/701020/major-operating-systems-targeted-by-ransomware/.

It is just that nowadays this kind of issues are more in the news because of “russian cyber criminals”, while in the past no one really cared.

Not that I complain… Visibility is actually a good thing

I haven’t experienced myself the issue. I trust your experience, but I cannot completely reproduce/describe it, as I am not selfhosting. I couldn’t answer in case of questions from developers regarding this.

Best would be for you to report this. You can create an issue here:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues

There is a simple template to fill, and you can copy and paste most text from this thread.

Creating a product of any size is about planning.

If you notify here, your information will be lost in 2 days. People forget, and move on to the next hot topic. Relevant stakeholders might very well completely miss this post, because they are not 24/7 on lemmy.

The way to make it more relevant is going in the place where the planning is done, i.e. Github for lemmy. Open an issue there, explain the problem and describe possible solution. Come back to lemmy, link the issue and ask people to react to it (i.e. show it is relevant for them).

This is the best way to obtain what you ask. Social media platforms are too broad and fuzzy for tracking real issues.

This is also why you see a lot of work is done on performances of sql of lemmy backend, because most issues in the past on github concerned that.

This is my suggestion. If you really care about this being implemented, open a ticket on github and follow the discussion there. If you see there is not enough traction ask help to fellow lemmings.

Suggestions for the github issue are:

• be very specific
• be polite
• suggest solutions

If your solution is good, great, if not, people are more willing to think about a problem to show stranger on the internet they are wrong

Did you opened an issue on github?

You are wording this as a clickbait news article.

You find an issue, you report it to the right channel, you notify it. Good. This is how software development work, with active community reporting issues.

But why using such tone?

If that happens

git remote set-url origin newurl

Not saying self hosting the remote is not a good idea, just that the risk you mention is not so dramatic

Good point, I have 2 lemmy accounts and 1 kbin

They might be using some smoothing, because all lines are noise-free. and the last point might just be an artifact. It looks like a constant growth

Vojager can be easily modified and deployed. It is actually quite riskier than others if you don’t use trusted deployments
