    In addition to my day job as a web developer for a startup, I also run a small business out of my home that does bespoke programming and web hosting for various clients.

    There goes my weekend to investigate...

    I am sorry for that 😆 but to be honest I have also spent good amounts of past weekends diving into this topic.

    @girish said in Immutable server os:

    I had great hopes for CoreOS

    Yes, fcos is actually the successor of this, but has meanwhile gotten a bunch of new components such as the usage of ignition instead of cloud-init.

    I forgot to mention one other cool this about fcos. Once you have generated your ignition file you can use the coreos-installer to bake it into an iso file. I don't know if there is an easier way to generate a software appliance out there. And inside of the ignition file you can merge or even completely replace it at runtime with files it can fetch from the internet at runtime.

    https://major.io/p/coreos-as-pet/ is another blog that highlights some of the potentials of fcos outside of the usual Kubernetes usage.

    @Mastadamus said in Seeking recommendations based on experience for Sendmail Relays:

    Mailgun seems like a better deal for those not using a massive amount of emails a month.

    Yeah, they are the only one I've tried because you have to use it for Ghost newsletters. But I've never paid anything for it because you can send up to 5000 emails a month for free and I don't send anywhere like that amount.

    Yes they are added via the custom spam filtering. I have to check with the client as to whether they are going to inbox or junk folder, they might be expecting them to be blocked outright. Also some spam has the key words as sender name, rather than in the subject... Not sure how to classify that.

    Given that our perspective is to be able to change anything on the system with a Cloudron update as we expect this environment to be fully under our control to minimize side-effects, which are very hard to debug, I would argue that making a mailman app package is the main way forward for this. This removes a lot of things out of the equation. Was there a specific reason why you didn't go that route initially?

    @AartJansen wrt hardware, as long as your server works with Ubuntu, it should all work with Cloudron. The filesystem has to be ext4/xfs .

    Currently, there is no mechanism to bind apps to specific eth cards. There is also no mechanism to make specific apps use specific outbound IPs.

    @3246 said in [Guide] How to host Cloudron behind a reverse proxy with Tailscale:

    If somebody could make a desktop recording showing this process, that would be great.
    That's a cool idea, and I will look to do a live stream or recording of this next time I set it up. Anything in particular that you would find helpful I'd focus on during the process?

    That Ubuntu spyware in 16.04 was so blatant, I couldn't work out why they did it. The community reaction was so predictable, yet still they went ahead with it. I still can't understand the thinking there.

    Nowadays, i think the move to systemd is a bad decision. I wonder what people here think about that.

    Anyway, I hope you let us know in advance when a livestream is going to happen. I hope you make it as easy to understand for non-tech people as possible.

    Yes, you actually do not even need a subscription for all of your Cloudron installation. As long as your staging system stays below the app limit it works fine without it. I guess it depends on your size and the amount of overlapping projects.

    @AartJansen AS @nebulon says, installing these after Cloudron may affect things. What I've done a few times in the past is install tools like these BEFORE installing Cloudron. If they still work, great. If not, then likely post-Cloudron-installation would have messed something up.

    Thanks. I did write some documentations with Hugo and Sphinx. But in this case I look for a way to write directly in an online app. I think I look for something like typst but more focused on writing.

    The 256Mb is just the initial upper memoryLimit set for apps. This does not mean that much memory is also allocated. Anyways memory usage heavily depends on the usage of the app as such and how many parallel active users are using an app. Usually all this is very hard to define upfront and needs to be tested in real conditions.

    Cool interview on progress towards autonomous AI:
    https://inv.tux.pizza/watch?v=6RUR6an5hOY&quality=dash

    via Arya ai:

    Enclosure in the context of technology, particularly open-source, refers to the phenomenon where a technology that was initially open and accessible becomes controlled or monopolized by a specific entity or group. This can happen through various means, such as strategic acquisitions, licensing restrictions, or the development of proprietary features that are not available in the open-source version. Some examples of enclosure include:
    Oracle's acquisition of Sun Microsystems, which led to the discontinuation of the open-source OpenSolaris operating system.
    Google's acquisition of Android and the development of proprietary features and services (like Google Play Services) that are not available in the open-source version (AOSP).
    Microsoft's acquisition of GitHub, which raised concerns about the future of open-source projects hosted on the platform.
    These examples illustrate how the enclosure can happen through strategic acquisitions and the development of proprietary features, leading to the control or monopolization of open-source technology.
