5 hours agoWell, I am asking also security wise. I know most schools snoop. Can they somehow see traffic through ssh or VPN? Or just the protocols, logs, dates, etc
I’m trying to selfhost some Lemmy communities just for fun :)

Trying to be nice. I really dislike the Reddit style aggressive comments. If you are rude I will block and ban you.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
It is my own device, but yes utilities and security is their own.
I have a server in my school office. I currently only use it to backup important files. I am asking if running public or private containers on it would be safe and acceptable.
My understanding is that scrappers check every domain and subdomain. You’re making it harder but not impossible. Everything gets scrapped
It would be better if you also did IP whitelisting, rate limiting to prevent bots, bot detection via cloudflare or something similar, etc.
I was auto banning all countries but my own but now I’m hosting one resource that has an audience including Chinese…
Good advice outside of this use case! :)
Anything else?
That’s not how web scrappers work lol. No such thing as obscurity except for humans
And what could actually happen? You learn through doing!

Maybe because -verse is sort of cringe imo. Also it’s shorter!
? How does putting something before it break it? It most certainly doesn’t.
You could put authentik in front of it too
So lost in anti-big tech social media that they forgot that algorithms are actually good and helpful!
If you end up setting up a new server, downloading something like fedora server, installing docker, then portainer via CLI is very easy. Then you can use the portainer interface to manage your installs. If you end up doing this I would be happy to chat.
If you end up running a Linux server, rsync files instead of moving them to confirm they’re there without issue before deleting.
As for keeping your data safe, I would increase your backup frequency to at least once a week. Also keep your two backup drives in different locations in case something happens.
I use this for my wife, works well! Surprised how few people know of it

How do you do that though?
Yes, already have. It seems they don’t care.
