I was thinking the same thing

Dude is one asymmetric pair of glasses from Spider Jerusalem

I don’t even think you need even a bot for that. Just grab the relevant RSS

This is completely unsurprising tbh. A lot of the old mods were enthusiasts who grew a community from scratch due to their love for the subject. In the reddit API shutdown, a lot of those mods left in disgust, or were replaced by the reddit admins, or were driven off by the leftover toxic userbase calling them “entitled jannies” or whatever. A lot of the mods who took over their place were just power-hungry users who were chomping at the bit to get the chance to run a big community as their personal fiefdom because they were too toxic to grow one themselves.

This is the inevitable culmination of these events.

Anyway, welcome to lemmy. We become more powerful from every user who writes off reddit forever.

PS: if you see power-trippin’ behaviour around these parts, you can always post about it in !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Why would it be a security risk?

You realize however that government regulation also stifle progressive radicalism? It’s why all newspapers and then radio and TV became status quo centrists which collaborated in obscuring and preventing every progressive policy from anti smoking campaigns to climate change. And that is without mentioning that regulations can be captured by the right through rich lobbyists or straight up fascist politicians. At which point the whole “regulated news” becomes a fully controlled propaganda machine. Just look at places likes Russia

I don’t see how it’s a privacy risk since you’re not exposing your IP or anything. Likewise the images are already uploaded to your servers, so there’s no extra privacy risk for the uploader.

yep

Lemmy and Mastodon as well for me. With a little bit of discord and matrix for my projects’ realtime chat

You can actually run it in async model without pictrs safety and just have it scan your newly uploaded images directly from storage. It just doesn’t prevent upload this way, just deletes them.

You don’t get public traffic redirected. It’s not how it works

It stops doing checks. Iirc you can configure it yes

https://github.com/db0/fedi-safety and the companion app https://github.com/db0/pictrs-safety which can be installed as part of your lemmy deployment in the docker-compose (or with a var in your ansible)

Not all web traffic, just the images to check. With any decent bandwidth, it shouldn’t be an issue for most. It also setup in such a way as to not cause a downtime if the checker goes down.

The software is setup in such a way that you can run it on your pc if you have a local gpu. It only needs like 2 gb vram

That is friggin’ cool!

Ye, generally I would only use njalla for discardable services and domains.

Wait, if they suspended your domain, can you even transfer it away? if not, that’s really fucking scary.

I don’t have good interaction with them either, but nothing as bad. I used one of their VPS to hold the reverse proxy for my lemmy instance like a year ago. Randomly it went down and the support was non-existent. Eventually it came back on its own after some days but I had already moved everything away from them
