KeepassXC is for desktop, while DX is for Android.

Here is a script to easily install WireGuard and generate client config files for any server: https://github.com/Nyr/wireguard-install

Sure, I get that. The issue is that as soon as you introduce the ability to install apps from outside the App Store, it becomes possible to trick unsuspecting users into clicking buttons they don’t understand. By designing a web page to look like an actual Apple page, a malicious party could convince users to “opt in” to outside sources, in a similar way in which phishing websites harvest users’ online banking credentials. Currently, this kind of attack is entirely impossible on iPhone.

I think that’s exactly the problem. The real user benefit will be very small, but in order to enable those changes, functionality will be implemented on everyone’s phones to support sideloading. In my eyes, this increseas the attack surface against iPhones. Time and time again alt stores have been used to distribute fake apps and malware on Android, and the victims are often those users who haven’t asked for sideloading and are unlikely to use it intentionally.

Yes, maybe this will enable an F-droid equivalent on iPhone and it will be great to have direct access to open-source apps. But is this niche addition worth potentially reducing the security of all iPhones? I’m not convinced.

What were the limitations of borg that you ran into?

Here are some alternatives you can try.

I think they run a lot of compute shader, so that they can offload part of the simulation to the GPU, so anything that reduces the utilization of the GPU could improve performance overall.

On Android, Glider is a nice client.

I’ve had bad experience with FocalBoard. Several times it lost data for no apparent reason, including during updates. Eventually I decided to stop using it because it was too fragile.

Do you know if hardware decode of 4K HEVC works on the Orange Pi 5?

RIP in pieces ⚰

Ah, interesting! They do both turn into links on Alexandrite, but on the official frontend and on Photon only the community does (the user stays as plain text).

In Alexandrite, is there a way to link to users or communities other than typing the link manually using markdown syntax? For example, in the official Lemmy frontend, typing ! begins a search for matching community names; I don’t know if there is similar functionality for usernames.

Eternity is excellent! I didn’t like it at first because it seemed cluttered, but after using it for a while, it’s become my favourite Android client!

A moderator of a big community. And the quality of the comments, or lack thereof, is just as important.

Thanks. I didn’t realise you can’t do relays anymore on the selfhosted version. That sucks…

You can set up relay nodes in the Netmaker config, and enable them only for those nodes behind NAT that need relaying. I’ve generally had good experience with Netmaker—when it works, it works—but several times it auto-updated and wiped my network config in the process.

What is your experience with Netbird vs Netmaker?

Tailscale doesn’t require you to wrestle with certs or the networking setup required to do NAT traversal. And they do it well, you don’t have to wonder whether you’ve screwed something up that’s degrading NAT traversal only in certain conditions. It just works. That said, I’ve been through the wringer already on these topics so Headscale is not painful for me.

Does Headscale require additional work to deal with NAT traversal on clients? Or is it just for the controller node itself?

For what it’s worth, I usually install Ubuntu Server instead of Debian because it comes with a few more things out-of-the-box that I would install anyway. I have several installations of 22.04 that have been upgraded since 16.04 and they work no problem. (I also have a few Debian installations working similarly well.)

They only do it because it works. Had they been given the level of attention—and interaction—that trolls deserve, they would quickly move on to doing other things with their life. But as long as one single well-placed comment can result in so many people getting annoyed from so many different perspectives, it’s easy to see the appeal that these trolls see…
