Quickly checking if you're an actual human or just a bot I came across this comment of yours:

I have blocked 264 users, 9 communities and 4 instances and it's made Lemmy much better for me toxicity wise. Whenever a debate gets toxic or someone starts just insulting or discussing in bad faith or I just get a bad vibe from them - I block.

Guess I'll take your advice then.

Personally I use KeePassXC + Syncthing, but Bitwarden/Vaultwarden is also a great.

What's somewhat amusing, for lack of a better word, is that even that advice doesn't fully resolve the issue, as Troy himself recently was the victim of a phising attack, where one part of the issue was that even legitimate sites changes their sign-in domains frequently enough that you kind of become numb to when the auto-fill stops working and just "correct" the issue without the necessary due diligence.

The problem with domains is that regular people would need to know what a domain is and what verified ownership says about the account in question.

Even then, reading domains is quite difficult, even for people who know about the topic: Humans are Bad at URLs and Fonts Don’t Matter

Yup. If anything, they should add a second USB-C connector. Much more versatile and you can still charge your phone if one of them dies.

These flaky, but simultaneously bulky headphone connectors need to die. They're inferior in pretty much every way imaginable.

Eh, while I agree that some recommendations are dodgy at best, I'll argue that Wireguard is not only adding to security, it also makes Fail2Ban obsolete. Due to the way it works, you'll completely hide the fact that you're even running a SSH server at all, and this includes even Wireguard itself. More importantly though, it's pretty much impossible to set up Wireguard in an insecure way, whereas SSH provides you with plenty of footguns. You're not risking locking yourself out either.

Also, security comes in layers.

Exactly. No root login and no password login will do just fine as basic measures, but after that Wireguard is perfect tool for this, no weird rituals required and also quite useful for any other services you don't want and/or need to expose to the internet as well.

And they switched to a resolution one that can't even Integer-scale, and, even worse, isn't even the correct aspect ratio.

Personally, I've seen a few people doing similar things, and to me it's always an indicator that the person needs to get their eyes checked. Any person with good eye sight or well adjusted glasses should immediately notice that the text actually becomes blurrier and harder to read despite the increased text size.

It's so weird. I can kind of understand this level of ignorance on other platforms, but here? The platform a majority of the people actively sought out because they saw what happens when a walled gardens starts turning against its users?

At the very least, I would've expected better arguments than "I don't want this, so I oppose other's from having that option."

In the README there's also instructions for Docker Compose, although it's quite the compose file, with SIXTEEN containers defined. Not something I'd want to self-host.

 

Currently I'm using Joplin with Syncthing-backed file system synchronization. I'm pretty pleased with it, as I do like tagging- and Markdown-based systems.

I plan to upgrade to server-based synchronization, but before doing that, however, I wanted to see what other people are using.

Edit: So far I see a slight favor towards Joplin and Logseq, but I totally didn't expect (and appreciate) getting so many different answers.
