Its possible that I estimated the timeline wrong 😅

I’ve added a note to the blog, thanks!

Glad I could provide some insight! It’s not something I see talked about too much even on Reddit. Let me know if you have any questions or things I could flesh out more in the article!

I’m still relatively new to ActivityPub and Federated systems in general, though I’ve had my Lemmy and Mastodon instances for 8+ months now I don’t use them as much as I was expecting, sadly. Running your own instance can be very isolating and any content you put directly on your instance probably won’t gain much traction (at least on Mastodon, Lemmy seems to fair a bit better).

It’s one of a handful of blogs that I’ve run over the last couple of years, the other one that’s still online is HomeLab.Blog. I actually meant to run a federated blog platform like WriteFreely, but they don’t have a production docket image, and I saw that Ghost is planning on adding ActivityPub support.

This article might be more appropriate on that blog and an article about my experience with Federated systems might be more on-topic on this one. Oops.

Yeah, this seems like old news - cookies can be stolen, and FIDO doesn't change that unless you are prompting the hardware token for validation with every request (which isn't feasible for most things, though might be a good idea for sensitive actions).

I use Cloudflare for TLDs they support, and Namecheap for everything else. Though, I use Cloudflare's DNS services for all domains.

I can't do latte art, I call mine "the blob" or "polarbear in a snowstorm" lol

I’m going to miss r/egg_irl. They helped me figure out a lot lol

I built a wireless Kyria keyboard late last year and love it. I went with LEDs and OLEDS (not recommended, I basically have to leave both halves plugged in if I want to use them).

They are a lot more comfortable to use than a standard keyboard IMO.

You might have to check those repos, I don’t know if the site has been updated.

I’m thinking about moving my single-user instance onto my lab from DO. Either that or moving to a managed Kubernetes cluster in the cloud (that is prohibitively expensive though)

Awesome, that's a good chunk of storage!

Speaking of mass SSD storage, if you play a lot of Steam games, have you looked at setting up an iSCSI target on the SSD to hold your games? I did that for a while, but when I re-aranged my rack a while ago I lost 10gb to my desktop (needed the card elsewhere). Was a pretty performant setup though, all things considered.

I would just call it the fediverse to be honest. Technically they all federate content, and I could respond to this post from Mastodon or Lemmy and it just works.

I think people referring to Mastodon as the fediverse is kind of similar to someone saying "the reddit for " instead of "'s sub-reddit", if that makes sense?

Ah yeah I’ll have to fill out my profile and do an introduction post!
