What about it I want to find the most populated community for a given search term, across the lemmiverse?

Stick with it, sounds like you’ve got a system that works for you

Currently I don’t have an auth service sitting in front of my other services, it’s just whatever auth is built into each app and saved passwords.

That said, I’ve deployed Authentik at a workplace and really enjoyed working with it, using it for SSO for a variety of services. I’ll implement it on my own platform soon.

Here’s how I do it: https://blog.lchapman.dev/self-hosting-foundations/

Note: blog isn’t monetised, I just write things up to make them easier to share with people.

Basically, I use a cloud VM as a gateway and reverse proxy to my services which are accessible via VPN. It’s not free, but it’s pretty cheap.

I have a friend who is using Cloudflare for this. He has a domain and he can access his services at domain.tld:port. Not bad, and it’s free. He could have his tunnel pointed at Caddy like I do and use subdomains, but he hasn’t got that far yet.

I prefer my method but both seem to get the basic functionality working.

Caddy takes almost all of the nginx boilerplate and handles it for you.

If you’re doing something simple in nginx, it’s far simpler with Caddy.

1800 symbols per second is the benchmark for shortwave data transmission.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PACTOR

Not sure exactly how useful that would be, but the latency is low: 0.01 seconds to cross the width of the USA.

A round trip packet from NY to SF takes 0.05 seconds, a fifth of the speed. Fibre is quick, but not as quick as radio.

There’s about 1400 bytes usable in a TCP packet, versus the 1800 symbols per second over shortwave. Lots of TCP packets can be exchanged per second.

I don’t see the value proposition.

You’ll need to take it back in to the store and show a manager.

Why do so many repeat this falsehood? There is no concept of “moving to a new instance” for a user. This is not like old phpBB forums. Your account works everywhere.

It’s almost like it wasn’t Reddit running jokes into the ground - it was people

Don’t forget to try Memmy, either when it comes out or on TestFlight now.

So far, so good. Even more haptic feedback than Apollo had, which is always a nice bonus.

[-] lchapman@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Memmy is under active development, TestFlight for iOS. Posting from it now. Not half bad.
