The US data center industry provides significant benefits to local communities—creating hundreds of thousands of high-wage jobs…

Bullshit. Real tired of this argument. It’s well known that datacenters are minimally staffed. Iowa got one and they convinced people that it would bring high paying jobs. Of course it didn’t. The high paying jobs are in tech centers, and even then they are less and less. Data centers are meant to just run with minimal involvement from humans. Everyone should fight for them to not be near them.

Agreed that if someone submits a dmca request they should be egregious enough that they’re willing to pay for lawyers and court fees. If they’re not ready to commit to that then it’s not that severe

Well, not that they were top of the list but I’ve been considering a new von provider, and well they’re out of the running now

I’ve had aqara and I’ve never had it turn off randomly

It’s been 12 years. There is no “this series” right now. There’s absolutely no way to predict it.

You mean the union busting didn’t help?

But seriously, good, better to delay then force the engineers to crunch on a subpar product.

Wow, alright, I am not here to argue. Feel free to continue arguing without me. I found a tool that quite literally was a drop-in addition for me, I had maybe one line of configuration I had to set to set it up. Silly me, I thought “Man, more admins need to know about this, hopefully they can save some money and prevent some bot traffic”.

Little did I know that doing something like giving my suggestions on things that helped me would be such an angering thing. God damn every goddamn time I post someone’s gotta through a thousand goddamn pedantic things at me. Ffs yes I know there are probably gotchas, and above I even added them. I’ve been trying to help people here and in other places I crossposted this so we could see how it would work for them. If people wanted help debugging their configurations I was ready to help debug things, offering configuration and solutions. But no, that’s too goddamn much here.

I mean what do I fucking know okay? I’ve only ran apps for over a decade like this, both myself with services here and professionally, from IIS to kubernetes from startups to big tech, I mean my job title is only senior SRE. But yes, thank you for showing me the error of my ways. I will keep things that have helped me to myself now, because posting here has been exhausting.

Well, out of all of the reasons to do a recall, that’s a pretty good reason…

Thanks for the recommendation!

Well known I think I would bypass Anubis completely. Have that set as a separate block in the proxy and just continue on to whatever backend app it needs. OAuth… yeah I could see it having issues with the callback in OAuth, if it started thinking the callback endpoint was a bot. You could fix that by not using Anubis for that endpoint. In NGinx, that’s just a location block like:

location = /oauth/callback {
  proxy_pass http://lemmy-ui:1234/;
}

Where the other ones through the standard routing. Admittedly more setup.

If you choose to disable core features of your browser then yes you will have reduced functionality in your browser. That is a tradeoff you have made.

All of those both work with Anubis, and if you didn’t want them to go through Anubis would be trivial to have bypass it with one line of proxy config.

I’ve noticed you can ask the most basic thing in registrations and people bots will just ignore it

Maybe that’s why some people think it’s difficult but I didn’t find it to be. Personally it’s blocking 90% of the traffic, which for a personal instance I know that is accurate, so I’m ecstatic

As I mentioned they are held up for a few seconds once. After the trust is established a cookie is set and they pass through freely. For my instance it’s been more responsive even because the bot traffic is gone.

I mean, it was trivial for me. I run in kubernetes with a test environment with docker compose and for both of them I spun up the extra container, and then after testing that container I just swapped the Lemmy proxy over to use Anubis first. To me that’s trivial, but ymmv

Yeah Proxmox leaves a lot to be desired in terms of metrics. However, metrics are supported out of the box. Bad news, you probably won’t get what you want within proxmox. Good news, you have another project you get to undertake! Hooray!

Like I said, Proxmox supports metrics out of the box. If you go Cluster -> Metric Server you’ll be able to see that you can add a metric server. The first iteration I did with proxmox I added an InfluxDB container which then proxmox can talk to (yes they can be on the same host), and then proxmox will start pumping metrics into InfluxDB. (It uses Telegraf under the hood). Then, you can also run Grafana, add your InfluxDB as a data source, and then you have a sweet metrics dashboard. There are a lot of pre-built dashboards already made that look great, and you can customize from there.

You can also use Graphite, I personally haven’t used it, but I also dropped Influx over time too. These things evolve in that sort of way. That’s how I’d get set up and started though.

It depends on your setup of course, many ways to skin that cat. You didn’t really say where you wanted dashboarding. Do you want it through a terminal? Through a UI within proxmox? Personally I took it as an opportunity to learn Grafana and hosted it

Thanks!
