Not under normal circumstances. I had some issues recovering damaged harddisks that had lots of errors and retries and sometimes either the USB adapter or the mainboard SATA would crap out or handle it better. But for normal copying of HDDs, both should copy the exact same data.
That would explain it. I mean if your provider provides you with a proper certificate, you can also use that. But often times it’s just a temporary self-signed placeholder that’s only good for development and not valid.
Where did you get your certificates from and what’s the exact error message? Maybe you’re using self-signed certificates. Those don’t get accepted by anyone else. Your path doesn’t look like the default letsencrypt/acme path…
I have little experience with windows (web)servers and more with linux.
I have no idea why someone would want to set-up or manage a windows server. It’s just pain if you previously did it with linux. Everything sucks. Where to find log messages, how to upgrade a php version and get that used by the webserver, backup, maintenance, how to write short and useful scripts for maintenance, the mixture of config files and lack thereof, and it needs double the resources.
I wouldn’t do it in my spare time. I’d rather work on a way to get that OS in that VPS replaced… (My personal oppinion.)
These are all cosequences of a federated approach.
Also we absolutely need moderation tools in the internet. There are way too many jerks out there. Fortunately people like to stick together with like-minded people and form groups. Especially after they’ve been shouted at, banned, etc. the jerks will find their own instance and we can cut contact to all jerks at once.
I like defederation for that. However, it is the deliberate act of destroying the one thing you’ve invented the fediverse to do: to ‘federate’ with other instances. If you do that too often, you kill the idea and the spirit of the fediverse. Probably followed by killing your platform, community and the mood of everyone involved.
We need nice people. Good people pushing the buttons in the backend. Diversity. And a healty way to communicate and moderate.
One thing is: If i run an instance of something like lemmy: It’s my decision what to do with it. I bought the server. I pay the electricity and internet bill. I face the consequences and get nasty mail by the police if someone does something illegal with it. And maybe i invited my friends to join. It’s the same like inviting them to my barbecue party. I don’t want them to be shouted at by some right-wing nuts, there.
There is one simple consequence that is important to know for the user: Chose the right instance for you! Diversity is a great thing. And we all know it’s too difficult for a new user to also know which instance to join. But it’s absolutely necessary to put some effort in. You need an instance that federates with like-minded people and which owners are aligned to your own morale and ethics. You can’t join something else and the complain. That way, you’ll probably be lost for the fediverse, after too many negative impressions.
This is mainly just being used as a pretext.
I think out of the 3 kitchen and recipe managers I know, Grocy sounds most like it.
