  • I'm working on adding ActivityPub to my Hugo blog right now. I support RSS, but I figured AP support means that you can get it into your Mastodon feed or even Lemmy feed making it easy to follow. Additionally, commenting (assuming it doesn't get taken over by spammers.)

  • Which stops malicious usage, but doesn't stop cases where web pages over use pushState as users move around instead of replaceState. I've seen maps that would add to the history every time a user moves around the map.

  • Not all filtering is the same. Client side filtering requires more data to passed over the network that then just gets dropped. It also means rules that are not shared across devices.

    Most importantly, these use CSS filters which are computationally more expensive because it has to take an entire DOM element, serialize it to text, string search it vs a server side filter that can just look at a one or two field variables. Even if it's not filtered in SQL on Lemmy's side I'd say it's still more efficient overall.

    You do what you want, but adding extra work on the client side is not what I'd want for my users. Of course, if your Lemmy instance does not supporting filtering, then this is moot.

  • How many users are using browsers that are old enough they don't even support JS? It's one thing to disable it for security/privacy (which the OP was talking about), because those users are probably more tech savy.

  • I tried self hosting Pixelfed but gave up because it wouldn't work. I'm used to Docker containers that are able to just start up by themselves, but the guide didn't work for me. Maybe it's time to try again.

  • I've been using and recommending Unifi Protect for friends. It's self-hosted and your video data is saved locally. The cameras require the Unifi Protect NVR or Cloud Key. For friends that are not overly technical, I've found it's quite easy for them to understand and use, while avoiding subscriptions.

  • One place it would be useful is if you are worried about somebody breaking into your home and stealing your computer. Don't store the key on the home computer, instead store it on a cloud server. The home computer connects to the cloud server, authenticates itself with some secret, then if the cloud server authorizes, it can return the decryption key.

    Then if your computer gets stolen or seized, it'll connect via a different IP and the cloud server can deny access or even wipe the encryption key.

    this doesn't protect against all risks, but it has its uses.

  • I just saw this one mention endurain, a fitness tracker. I've been looking for something to self host data about my health, fitness, etc. Has anyone tried this or anything else in the self-hosted or open source fitness space?

  • I think I ignored a lot of signs and indications under the feeling that well "I'm promo tracked to the next level and I worked hard so I'll ignore it." My partner told me to talk to somebody, friends said I worked hard. But then slowly my motivation to work at my job decreased. I delivered less, I made up excuses, I stop caring about projects when I used to really care. Which was a huge difference because I used to be a top tier developer every year.

    But the big part was my personal life. After work I was tired and not motivated, even though I would barely do any work. loosing interest in hobbies was a big indication. Going to the gym, but not really pushing myself, etc. I think there's some parallels with depression, but I never felt like I had that because I kept getting out of bed doing things.

    I had a friend deacribe their experience and I just started thinking yeah I feel the same way. I finally had a health issue/mental breakdown that caused me to go to the doctor and pursue FMLA leave which is giving me partial pay to just focus on myself, focus on friends, and talk to a therapist. I don't know what I'll do when it ends. Probably won't go back to the company.

    Weirdly, a lot of my friends in the big tech industry have hit a breaking point and are leaving or on leaves.

  • I'm recovering from burnout after working at a big tech company for 10 years. I think this article tries to focus on how just giving people the right work will prevent burnout, but I think the causes are very complex and vary for different people. But it's important to catch it before it's bad. For me, I had difficult to please managers, or projects that went nowhere, or passion projects that were not invested in, or lack of strong non-work relationships, or even just looking at the company I worked at slowly lose all culture and turn into something that started to abuse customers and focus on profits.

  • This is just an interesting artifact of internet communities at work. They are stuck there because Boeing's design was unsafe, Boeing has been suffering from engineering culture decline due to MBAs seeking to maximize profit. Maximizing profit is the end state of late stage capitalism. Thus this is Capitalism's fault.

    People are frustrated thus they amplify these posts and ideas. You can notice the effects everywhere once you start looking. However it leads to a boring discussion. I can already see doomer questions flooding Ask Lemmy. While I may agree, it can't all be based on that.
