@dalias Oh, FFS. Is there an EU-based cloud provider that *isn't* bigoted? Or does this end with me running my website off a box in the garage?

So, in the process of migrating my website from Vercel to Hetzner, I was able to do a pretty good write-up of what I did. If anyone wants to follow in my footsteps (or alternatively, point out all the things I've done wrong) , I think it's a decent guide!

Sysadmins of Mastodon, please share your knowledge with me! I have a Hetzner server set up that's running my website on a secondary domain. Before I fully make the transition, I want to make sure security is entirely correct. I have disabled root login and am only allowing access to the user account via SSH, I have a firewall up, and everything is updated. The internal code I've written should also be up to scratch.

What am I missing? I really want this to be as airtight as it can be.

This one just keeps getting more and more relevant in some uncomfortable ways:

I gotta say, however progressive and anti-racist the takes, minimising or denying voter intimidation of women by men leaves a *really* bad taste in my mouth.
