Unless you have a wall of old nokia phones… it should be quite scary.

Eh… Mutually assured destruction.

It’s a very scary phrase.

That, is a pretty good deal. Better start picking up some MD1200s!

No.

I wouldn’t vote for Hillary period for many reasons. Her sex is not one of them.

A random fact, I actually did vote for a woman to be president. But, it damn sure was not Hillary. There is too much stink associated with her. Too much shit swept under the rug.

The other admin now “owns” this instance, and hosts it in the EU.

I am just a glorified moderator now.

I’d say, you have a small instance.

I used to host lemmyonline.com, which has somewhere around 50-100 users.

It was upwards of 50-80g of disk space, and it used a pretty good chunk of bandwidth. CPU/Memory requirements were not very high though.

Yes.

This platform* is getting overrun by trolls and tankies. I’m going back to Reddit

Anti-DDOS, eh?

You lost me there. There is no self-hosted anti-ddos solution that is going to be effective… Because any decent DDOS attack, can easily completely overwhelm your WAN connection. (And potentially even your ISP’s upstream(s) )#

Not a clue.

Maybe they like the pretty dashboard pihole has.

I use vlans to work with it.

unbound as a DNS filter and resolver

Its… worked as a recursive resolver, with filtering/blacklist features for years now?

I saw it through one of the apps which scrapes reddit comments for archival.

Reddit quit making those stats public a while back, sadly

Don’t make the same mistake reddit did, by assuming active users = engagement.

Look at reddit’s stats, active users didn’t drop very drastically when everyone left. However, engagement/comments dropped drastically.

Lots of our panels are produced in north america.

My panels, for example, are from Canadian Solar.

You don’t see porn on the front page of lemmy either, if you used the “subscribed” view, instead of treating “ALL” as if it doesn’t contain everything.

high uptime, doesn’t many anything.

SSDs are rated by how much data can be written to them, as flash as finite write-endurance.

Hence my reaction to these issues. https://lemmyonline.com/post/459013

HEY LOCAL PD OFFICE,

SOMEONE TRIED TO UPLOAD SOME POTENTIALLY CHILD PORN TO MY LEMMY INSTANCE.

No… I don’t have an IP for who uploaded it.

Sorry, I don’t know where it came from. It just got federated across the fediverse to me.

No… I don’t have the content either, it doesn’t get saved.

Sorry… I guess I really don’t have any details at all for you.
