What is your favorite domain name provider, and why? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Cloudflare works really well and has a good UI. Namecheap also works well, but it takes more clicks to adjust DNS records.

Automate Generating WireGuard Config without Managing Existing Installation in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] Skyline@lemmy.cafe 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure, it's possible. I could do it by hand, but the more clients you want to add, the more cumbersome the process. What I'd like is a tool to automate what is mostly a templating process.

Automate Generating WireGuard Config without Managing Existing Installation (lemmy.cafe)
 

Is there an open-source tool to bulk-generate wireguard configurations without managing the wireguard installation itself?

I have an existing server set up with a special wireguard configuration that I created manually. I want to add a standard VPN server configuration to that machine without affecting the existing configuration. I've used tools for this in the past, but they all work on the premise that wireguard isn't already installed and that only said tool is used to managed the installation. I'm worried this might break my existing config, so what I want is something to automate generating keys and writing configuration files, without interacting with the existing wireguard installation. Does this exist?

Windows mail app other than Thunderbird? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml

I have not, but from screenshots it seems only a minor reskin.

Windows mail app other than Thunderbird? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml
[–] Skyline@lemmy.cafe 2 points 1 year ago

There was a Linux client I saw a while ago—Spring Mail or something like that?—which first downloaded your email from your provider onto their own servers, then your local client got them from their server. This additional cloud step is what I want to avoid.

Besides Thunderbird, is there any good desktop mail client for Windows that doesn't involve uploading mail to a cloud first?

Yes, I mean in the main feed.

Yeah, having the option is not a bad thing. Nothing changes for those who use the apps or want them there, but it lets people remove them if that's what they want.

Please add an option to show downvotes separate from upvotes. I find that information much more useful than just the total score.

iPhone 15 Pro will still have 6 GB of RAM (9to5mac.com)
 

We have been on 6 GB RAM since the 12 Pro, so for those hoping for an increase this year, it looks like it won’t happen.

I was assigned to MLM project in work, have some questions in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] Skyline@lemmy.cafe 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thank you for sharing this story. I've recently watched this video on MLMs and it describes exactly the kind of situations your mom found herself in. I thought these MLM schemes were bad before, but I had no idea just how horrible they actually are...

Which privacy-focused search engine are you using? in c/technology@lemmy.world

Do you find DDG to be slower than Bing or Google? A few years ago I thought there was a noticeable delay with DDG, but not with Google.

Thanks! I have no idea how I hadn't tried that before! 😅

I think on Eureka grinders the 0 label may not actually be the point where the burrs touch. There is an experiment you can do to find where your true 0 is by slowly turning the burrs by hand while lowering the setting until they touch. Since your touching point might be a lot below 0, you might not be grinding as fine as you think!

Hi. Thanks for the release. It's excellent and I'm really enjoying using Connect!

Here are a couple of small requests from a compact layout user:

  • Would it be possible to add dividers between posts in compact layout? Currently there is a lot of text and little visual separation.
  • Would you consider adding an option to move the thumbnails to the right?

And here are a couple of minor issues I've noticed:

Thanks again for your work.

[REQ] iPad: Reduce text width (lemmy.cafe)
 

When using an iPad in landscape mode, text lines in posts and comments are very wide. An option to reduce the width of the posts and comments to about 1/3–1/4 of the screen width, like Apollo did by default, would improve readability. Please consider this layout option if there is support for it.

Thanks a lot for your work on this app!
