afaik this is configured in pictrs service and each instance has it set differently

Numbers from my instance, running for about a 1 year and with average ~2 MAU. According to some quick db queries there is currently 580 actively subscribed communities (it was probably a lot less before I used the subscribe bot to populate the All tab).

SELECT pg_size_pretty( pg_database_size('lemmy') ): 17 GB

Backblaze B2 (S3) reports average 22.5 GB stored. With everything capped to max 1 USD, I pay cents - no idea how backblaze does it but it’s really super cheap, except for some specific transactions done on the bucket afaik, which pictrs does not seem to do.

According to my zabbix monitoring, two months ago (I don’t keep longer stats) the DB had only about 14G of data, so with this much communities I am getting about 1.5G per month (it’s probably a bit more as I was recently prunning stuff from some dead instances).

Prometheus says whole lemmy service (I use traefik) is getting within about 5 req/s (1m average) though if I go lower it does spike a lot, up to 12 requests within a second then nothing for few.

Attach it to the VM

Is this possible only with the extra, bought storage boxes ? Or is this possible even with the free 100G backup boxes offered with each dedicated machine ? (Or is this just nfs mount?)

We have a dedicated machine in a project from Hetzner with big raided hard disks but the latency is starting creep up on us, moving some of the data off to the faster ssd/san boxes would be rather helpful.

Run your ip through ip abuse databases to make sure there is nothing wrong perceived from outside.

Afaik you can self-host the Renovate bot, though don’t remember if it’s fully open source & self-contained.

Nvidia module won’t build

how/why?

If you have 13/14 Gen Intel and it errors out with random SIGILL errors you are being hit by the Intel instability problem.

At least for me that was the only place where the instability surfaced before bios updates and tweaks.

On point summary.
And I was just about to write that I have confirmed SQLi is not possible to find out I have missed something that might in-turn make it possible! holy hell back to drawing board

How did you fail?

VLANs (Virtual LANs) are for isolating devices from each other (while still being plugged to the “LAN” ports of the same router).

Matter of time, good while it lasted

There is also https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch but the absence of offline local client was always a blocker

Registration hooks could be powerful

You know what, I am gonna call skill issue.
I get that the “press R to join a group” can be overlooked or that not everyone has the intuition to click on the active missions on a planet (alright, these are currently bugged and do not refresh quick enough so always full).

But all one has to do is a quick google search to find out you just open the big holo planet and press R, there are also definitely worse offenders in cryptic/useless UIs.

I wouldn’t recommend putting ssh behind any vpn connection unles you have a secondary access to the machine (for example virtual tty/terminal from your provider or local network ssh). At best, ssh should be the only publicly accessible service (unless hosting other services that need to be public accessible).

I usually move the ssh port to some higher number just to get rid of the basic scanners/skiddies.

Also disable password login (only keys) and no root login.

And for extra hardening, explicitly allow ssh for only users that need it (in sshd config).

I don’t use nginx proxy manager but websocket has to be enabled for apps that use websockets (duh) - you would have to dive into docs or example infra configs to check if the service uses it.
Rule of thumb here would be to enable it for everything. Optionally you could check if the service works with/without it.

E: Websockets are used when a website needs to talk in “real-time” with the servers - live views and graphs will usually use it also notifications, generally if the website does not reload/redraw fully but data seems to change then there is a high chance it uses websockets under the hood (but there are ways to do it without ws, ex. SSE).

Example: Grafana uses websockets but qbittorrent web ui uses other means (SSE) and does not require ws.

borg backup with rsync.net

Borg does de-duplication and compression, I’ve used it for multiple things like backing up minecraft servers and it can reduce the final backup size by a lot (like 1-2 TBs to a hundred of GB, though that was with content that was highly compressible and didn’t change much over-time so the deduplication did a lot too).

There is also borgbase.com which looks a bit better and focuses only on borg repositories instead of also being compatible with just about any usual tools (eg rsync, rclone etc)

I would try momentarily replacing the defined dns servers with nameserver 1.1.1.1 and see if stuff improves, though the pull error would hint that docker did resolve the name but somehow didn’t get an answer.
Hard to guess what else could be a problem apart from some obvious stuff - check if the internet connection is healthy and stable (ping, watch for spikes in ms or drops, also any outgoing firewall filters?)
