They’re not almost the same thing at all, and your whole position is weird given that the context is social media which is fundamentally content people want to publish publicly.

This has nothing to do with the original topic of discussion or Hollo in particular. You’re now arguing about pros and cons of using a VPS service. I also have no idea why you keep making statements like “not having everything encrypted on a server you don’t own is a massive flaw”. You absolutely can have everything encrypted running a VPS. You don’t understand the subject you’re discussing.
I don’t know what to tell you, but this is how modern internet works. Also, nobody is forcing you to get a server in a jurisdiction where US has access to. Meanwhile, any traffic is encrypted via HTTPS, so the provider can’t actually log it. It sounds like you have a very superficial understanding of the subject you’re debating here.
It’s really up to you how you set up your server and the datastore. This has nothing to do with Hollo. Again, there’s no difference between this and running a Mastodon server that will also need infrastructure like a db to back it.
pretty much nobody runs servers on bare metal nowadays
Yes, it’s a virtual server that you can get from a provider like Digital Ocean. It’s not running on your machine locally, it’s the same thing that the admins of Mastodon instances have to do to run Mastodon servers.
No, it means you run your own VPS to host your personal blog.
This is about making your own personal instance of a microblog that’s ActivityPub enabled. It’s much lighter than running Mastodon that’s mean to be a hosting platform for a lot of users.
Yeah also true, you’re generally not gonna start doing anything if you know you’re getting interrupted anyways.
it’s not actively developed, but it does work
I really like fish because it has excellent contextual autocomplete based on the folder you’re in. I haven’t used any other shell that was as good at it.
kebab case for the win xml-http-request
Congratulations on yet another release filled with enhancements that improve user experience. 🎉
In some cases it is just a net negative, especially if you have a bunch of services are using the same db tables which act as the global state.
In a lot of cases microservices will add to your development problems.
lol no idea
What metadata is collected by third parties is completely tangential to the topic of the submission. However, as I’ve repeatedly tried to explain to you, there is no practical difference between running on bare metal which nobody does nowadays, or running a VPS. At this point it’s quite clear that you’re just trolling, so I’m going to stop here. Bye.
