It’s been forever since I looked at resilio so this may be an unfair appraisal but… I seem to remember it’s one of those OSS projects that feels a lot more like free tier commercial software. Do you think that’s the case or nah?
Honestly just a dumb rsync client would be enough for me.
God this is sad.
The parts of tech that are useful and elegant are contracting, while subscriptions and ads just get more obnoxious.
They said somewhere that the play store thing is not the reason, it’s just one of the more recent issues.
What is this alternative of which you speak?
Automation is always incremental.
I’m an accountant. Components of the job have been being automated or systemised for many decades. Most of the tasks that occupied a graduate when I was one 20 years ago don’t exist anymore.
Not because AI is doing those tasks but just because everything became more integrated, we configure and manage the flow of data rather than making the data, you might say.
If you had to hire 100 professional programmers in the past, but then AI makes programmers 10% more efficient than previously, then you can do the same work with 91 programmers.
That doesn’t mean that 9 people were doing something that an LLM can do, it just means that more work is being completed with fewer programmers.
Plenty of sea snails that large.
Abalone are snails, they’re a delicacy.
This is the answer.
I use syncthing to sync between devices.
This is me.
In public dns, configure *.home.example.com as an A record pointing to the local IP for my traefik container.
Traefik then manages all certificates. It sets a TXT record with my dns providers API like privatesercice.home.lebowheatcroft.com, requests the cert from letsencrypt, then deletes that TXT record.
Yes the local IP of my server is leaked, but names of services are not.
In my experience syncthing is always a bit like that using the default discovery settings.
I use a hub & spoke set up now. Instead of A, B, and C all connecting to each other directly, they only connect to D. I also input the address for D specifically instead of using discovery servers.
With this set up I’ve never had any drama.
This is the solution.
All names have problems but this one has the least.
Similar here. I’m an accountant by trade but tech is my strongest hobby.
I don’t think I’m really making any of those points in isolation, but I think probably the first.
It’s possible to acknowledge that I don’t agree with the views of the devs while using their software, but it does create a kind of tension that I would avoid if a viable alternative existed.
The views of devs are relevant to my decision whether or not to use whatever software, but they’re not solely determinant.
Similarly, I prefer open source software and will always seek it out and when comparing alternatives I heavily weight open source as an advantage. That said, I do still use some microsoft software (notably microsoft teams) for a variety of reasons.
I’m strongly opposed to the lemmy devs political and social views, yet I’m happily using the platform they developed.
I’m not quite sure how I can be clearer?
I don’t think hate is the right word. Vitriol maybe.
I don’t hate the project or the devs.
It’s just that when someone suggests this might one day be a competitive browser engine, everyone feels obligated to point out, sometimes a little too emphatically, the many challenges the project must overcome.
Perhaps part of it is borne of frustrations around mozilla. They’re our last best chance, and yet we’re all very frustrated at their constant mismanagement and errors of judgement. The suggestion that several people can build an independent competitor in their spare time is… unbearable.
With all that said, if they ever achieve anything approaching Firefox’s compatibility and reliability, I will be their most ardent supporter. Until then I’ll be here in these threads calling idiots naive.
My idiology diverges significantly from the lemmy devs, but here we are.
Because people can discuss whatever they like?
If you don’t like it just down vote it.
My set up is similar to this but I’m using wildcards.
So all my containers are on 10.0.0.0/8, and public dns server resolves *.sub.domain.com to 10.0.0.2, which is a reverse proxy for the containers.
No one is saying it is their job.
Merely that using a TLD like .internal requires some consideration regarding ssl certificates.
Ooh.
Thanks.
I’ve been running the fork for a long time but somehow figured it was a soft-fork and maybe not really viable without upstream development from syncthing.
Now @imsodin@infosec.pub 's comments are making a lot more sense.
This whole thing is more or less a non-issue then?
