It’s a list from 2021 and as a cybersec researcher and Jellyfin user I didn’t see anything that would make me say “do not expose Jellyfin to the Internet”.

That’s not to say there might be something not listed, or some exploit chain using parts of this list, but at least it’s not something that has been abused over the last four years if so.

I went from Emby to Jellyfin as they started their enshittification journey. I don’t really notice it being less polished.

Snopes should take this opportunity to post once a day that the best way to know if something’s true or not is to leave Xitter.

Ollama as a general LLM server and then LLaVa as model

I host a SearXNG instance and follow the Matrix channel. Haven’t seen anything along those lines.

The AI support doesn’t hurt you if you don’t use it - and they’ve done the right thing by making sure you can do things locally instead of cloud.

Here’s what AI does for me (self-hosted, my own scripts) on NC 9:

When our phones sync photos to Nextcloud a local LLM creates image descriptions on all the photos, as well as creating five tags for each.

It is absolutely awesome.

I was macOS (desktop) and Linux (servers), but over time it just became cumbersome to cater to the - while Unix - different environment on the Macs all the time. I’ve now converted over the last Macbook Pro to Linux but what I really want is a Linux distribution really made specifically for the Macs and making full use of their somewhat special hardware.

If you’re more at home with macOS then this doesn’t apply to you of course :) A lot of the software I use is from the open source community where Mac gets supported because it’s possible to compile for it but it’s always an afterthought.

(Servers? Yeah that might surprise people - but the performance of Apple Silicon is really very interesting for a lot of tasks where you need “GPU-speedup” without installing a full GPU)

Bad for Linux. I see Asahi Linux on Apple hardware as being the “best Linux” for consumer use (and home servers) moving forwards.

Threat modelling for a possible future is different from threat modelling for today.

The Netherlands kept good records of which religion a person belonged to in the 1930s, to be able to swiftly fulfil any possible religious requirements on burial services. A nice service.

The nazis thought so too, a few years later.

… the billionaire proof version of Bluesky is … Mastodon.

You want Matrix. Synapse if you intend to host for others, Conduit if you just want to host for yourself. There are quite a few different clients but I do indeed use ElementX on mobile.

IOCX has a noticeable increase in new user signups since a day or two back.

That sounds problematic. Where do they detail this?

Wikipedia:

Google Safe Browsing “conducts client-side checks. If a website looks suspicious, it sends a subset of likely phishing and social engineering terms found on the page to Google to obtain additional information available from Google’s servers on whether the website should be considered malicious”.

But why are random people visiting your instance?

If you were just selfhosting services for you and your family, would really browsers be flagging your site?

I have now installed it and I like it.

I haven’t installed it yet, but I’m going to try out Gitness for this: https://docs.gitness.com/

Yeah I was able to install sliding-sync on Dendrite without issues. A bit surprising that I didn’t see any guides made for it yet.
