you know what would be a great christmas present?

a job

@_elena cool!

personally, i find most hosting providers' dns tooling to be quite lacking. nowadays, i always use https://desec.io to handle my dns for my domains. they aren't a registrar, so you'd bring the same domains you already use.

to get started, you'd sign up at desec, then set the nameservers on your domain to the desec nameservers (they tell you what they are when you sign up), then just manage your records on desec

this is just a quality-of-life thing, though!

@_elena the other thing(s) i wanted to suggest were more checklist-style tools for your web apps and email:

- https://hardenize.com
- https://internet.nl
- https://checktls.com

the first two give you details on the current configuration of your web and mail services (http(s), dns, etc), and the last one is a tool for checking your email dns and is quite robust

@_elena may i ask how you're managing your dns records? also would you be open to some tool suggestions?

@_elena congrats! email is the worst

@dalias interesting.. sorry if im asking the obvious, but whats the benefit wrt fingerprint protection?

@dean @foone

@dalias im not sure i follow

@dean @foone

@dalias @dean @foone ive only ever heard of the resistFingerprinting config setting, but that just fucks up webgl entirely

@dalias @dean @foone you could probably use bubblewrap, flatseal¹, etc to block off gpu if you were so inclined

¹ i know theyre the same

lookin for recommendations for documentation/wikis/etc that i can use for my homelab/one-day community server!

ideally it'll be either something very minimal and js-free (in the vein of man.sr.ht) or something hacker-vibe where js frontends can be excused if it's for a cool reason (like silverbullet.md)

this doesn't have to be extremely accessible to non-tech savvy users, but shouldn't be too much more complicated than editing markdown files etc

@thomcat im pretty sure it's possible with nfs, though thoroughly annoying (also for permissions issues)

i have a feeling iscsi would be easiest but frankly i dont know shit about iscsi i just assume it cant be as bad as smb or nfs

@feld

@Em0nM4stodon tbf it sells ads but that's pretty much the same thing

@Em0nM4stodon especially considering retargeting ads are their strong point and it's because they have so much more detailed information about its users

@ryanc last month????? lmao????????
