We need to let them know and ask for an explanation

Matrix is the same and no one wants to use it. Why?

Florida man strikes again!

Who owns LeMonde?

Just lol at Synology trying to do an Nvidia

Synology is like Ubiquity in the self-hosted community: sure it’s self-hosted, but it’s definitely not yours. End of the day you get to deal with their decisions.

Terramaster lets you run your own OS on their machine. That’s basically what a homelabber wants: a good chassis and components. I couldn’t see a reason to buy a Synology after Terramaster and Ugreen started ramping out their product lines which let you run whatever OS you wanted. Synology at this point is for people who either don’t know what they’re doing or want to remain hands-off with storage management (which is valid; you don’t want to do more work when you get home for work). Unfortunately, such customers are now out in the lurch, so TrueNAS or trust some other company to hold your data safe.

Thanks

Alpine isn’t exactly fortified either. It needs some work too. Ideally you’d use a deblobbed kernel with KSPP and use MAC, harden permissions, install hardened_malloc. I don’t recall if there’s CIS benchmarks or STIGs for Alpine but those are very important too. These are my basic steps for hardening anything. But Alpine has the advantage of being lean from the start. Ideally you’d compile your packages with hardened flags like on Gentoo but for a regular container and VM host that might be too much (or not - depends on your appetite for this stuff).

I’m looking at buildbot

I don’t get it. Where is the idea that “Fedora focuses on security” coming from? Fedora requires an equivalent amount of work like other distros to harden it.

I personally use Alpine because I trust busybox to have less attack surface than normal Linux utils

Asking the important questions

How exactly would they ban them? DNS poisoning?

I wish they did. I can’t believe non-profits are suing each other.

Desolder the WiFi chip and start using Kodi

Regardless, the fact is unless you’re going through the code, you’re not sure if the tracking and telemetry is really disabled. LibreWolf does that for me, so I use it over plain Firefox

Because they said so in their updated ToS. They might not be as bad as Google but they’re not saints

Oh I get it. Auto-pull the repos to the master nodes’ local storage for if something bad happens, and when that does, use the automatically pulled (and hopefully current) code to fix what broke.

Good idea

Firefox is spying on you, so a derivative is the only option. I also user Ungoogled Chromium because it’s really nice and works well after a couple of tweaks

Well it’s a tougher question to answer when it’s an active-active config rather than a master slave config because the former would need minimum latency possible as requests are bounced all over the place. For the latter, I’ll probably set up to pull every 5 minutes, so 5 minutes of latency (assuming someone doesn’t try to push right when the master node is going down).

I don’t think the likes of Github work on a master-slave configuration. They’re probably on the active-active side of things for performance. I’m surprised I couldn’t find anything on this from Codeberg though, you’d think they have already solved this problem and might have published something. Maybe I missed it.

I didn’t find anything in the official git book either, which one do you recommend?

Thanks for the comment. There’s no special use-case: it’ll just be me and a couple of friends using it anyway. But I would like to make it highly available. It doesn’t need to be 5 - 2 or 3 would be fine too but I don’t think the number would change the concept.

Ideally I’d want all servers to be updated in real-time, but it’s not necessary. I simply want to run it like so because I want to experience what the big cloud providers run for their distributed git services.

Thanks for the idea about update hooks, I’ll read more about it.

Well the other choice was Reddit so I decided to post here (Reddit flags my IP and doesn’t let me create an account easily). I might ask on a couple of other forums too.

Thanks
