Yes to all three. Regression of the political climate in the US makes me uneasy about operating services from there (even if it has been via an EU-based company up to this point). EU law also provides strong privacy protections against US overreach via apparatus such as the CLOUD Act and FISA 702, which can potentially allow US federal agencies to compel cloud service providers there to hand over any and all data they request - without any disclosure to us or you. We have been able to secure a more favourable deal on a root server in Germany, so there is some economic motivation.

We’re operating out of Australia. Hosting our data in Europe will provide additional privacy protections to users given that US-based companies can be compelled to provide hosted data to government agencies via a number of mass surveillance measures (CLOUD Act, FISA 702, etc.) without any disclosure.

That said, Lemmy is inherently an open platform and users should operate on the assumption that their activity is public.

Won’t somebody think of the Eloi?

I only learned this recently too watching the Rocky Horror cast reunion.

You’re right, I was thinking about 32-bit timestamps. Definitely not an issue for 64-bits.

Won’t switching from an unsigned 64-bit integer to a signed one of the same size effectively halve how far into the future they can handle dates, exhausting it in 2038?

The hyprland issues I’m aware of, but what’s the issue with suckless?

Yeah, same story - the few I looked at looked like they were from consumer ISPs. We had ~7m requests from Brazil, ~900k from Argentina, and a little less from Ecuador, Colombia and Russia.

We were getting DDoS’d by a bunch of South American IPs (mostly Brazilian) from maybe 18 hours ago.

We had this issue on and off for a few weeks at least, causing massive postgres CPU spikes. I ended up blocking large page params with an nginx regex.

Until they get their billion dollar kickback, right? Then it’ll be something else.

I already use Navidrome, but I discovered Explo through your post, so thanks! It seems to work well in that it brings in the tracks that it should, but I don’t think I can keep using it because it pollutes my ‘Recently Added’ list in Navidrome with 50 new albums, each with a single track. If I could somehow prevent that, I think I’d keep using it. I tried using an .ndignore file but that didn’t work - it stops them showing up in Recents, but also prevents the tracks from working in the playlist that Explo generates.

Huh, surprised it remained until the end!

LFC fan here hanging out for the Preston friendly in a few hours. Saw the post in the main Canvas thread about the Jota tribute and came to offer any help I could, but it looks like it’s already done! Great work, everyone.

Posting our tramp stamp here for posterity before it inevitably gets overwritten by yet another country flag 😆

Also been using it for years. Love the unique interface. Wish they’d do more substantial updates than those seasonal icon packs though, especially given the amount of income they must have from subscriptions.

Or Navidrome if you only want to stream music. It also supports dynamic playlists, internet radio, and scrobbling.

As someone who’s never used Pocket but recently got a Kobo and saw there’s an integration, I was a little annoyed they were shutting it down. I wonder if Kobo will create their own service to fill the gap? Given how hackable the device is, I’m sure the community will if they don’t.

Really appreciate the effort that went into compiling this. Those leminal.space accounts have been banned.
