certificates can only be obtained for domain names
That is not true, nothing prevents it on the technical side, and even some trusted CAs sell them under certain conditions

I think it was in UCEPROTECT-Level2 or UCEPROTECT-Level3 a couple of times, but it wasn’t an issue because these are a subnet and ASN level blacklists that offer paid “whitelisting”, so no sane person uses these abominations anyway. My emails can sometimes end up in a Spam folder for whatever reason, but I don’t recall ever having them completely bounced.
It’s just not something you want to deal with because you’ll spend hours dealing with blacklists, spam, government requests and other BS.
What should I do to get all these? Am I hosting my mail server in a wrong way?
Defederating just for the sake of defederating is, of course, something extraordinary. But having a reason to defederate != having legitimate reason to defederate. After all, instance admins are not almighty gods with infallible moral compasses, they are just humans.
Then we need enough communities and users outside of big player instances. The power is in our own hands.
Also, if they still do implement whitelists and make an application process more than just asking nicely, refer to my previous comment.
Could also just buy a cheap VPS and just use that for just the Lemmy instance so I wouldn’t need a VPN
You can rent a VPS and host VPN on it
If they would go as far as to defederate with your specific instance, you should seriously reconsider whether their instance or their community actually have any value to you
what if there’s a nipple, and cum is still on its way in the air?
Going through suggested lists I can count the instances that have the reason “spam” on my fingers, doesn’t seem to be actually useful (or intended to be) against spam
So basically centralized cenzorship for decentralized Fediverse?
This is so good!. Haven’t even updated yet, and I already see a lot more posts from lemmy.ml on my instance, and no more “Subscribe Pending”
Their clunky and unpleasant Ui, but mainly this
A series of VPSes running AlmaLinux, I have a relatively big Ansible playbook to setup everything after the server goes online. The idea is that I can at any time scrape the server off, install an OS, put in all the persistent data (Docker volumes and /srv partition with all the heavy data), and run a playbok.
Docker Compose for services, last time I checked Podman, podman-compose didn’t work properly, and learning a new orchestration tool would take an unjustifiable amount of time.
I try to avoid shell scripts as much as possible because they are hard to write in such a way so that they handle all possible scenarios, they are difficult to debug, and they can make a mess when not done properly. Premade scripts are usually the big offenders here, and they are I nice way to leave you without a single clue how the stuff they set up works.
I don’t have a selfhosting addiction.
I would recommend Porkbun, been using it for almost 1.5 years after I had to migrate from Namecheap. Wouldn’t really recommend the latter
The check $LEMMY_HOSTNAME == http*
will give a false positive if (for whatever reason) the domain name starts with http
It doesn’t make a lot of sense for LetsEncrypt to spend time adding support for such certs, since both a domain name and a cert from another CA are cheaper than buying an IPv4 block
