YSK: In addition to Reddit, StackOverflow is on Strike in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

I never got any help asking questions there anyways. Answers I got back we’re trollish. When I provide and answer it can’t be the answer as it’s based on your own reputation score which you can’t get but answering questions. It seems like a flawed system. Didn’t know they had mods either. Never really got any solutions either from stack overflow, unless you read every comment for the right answer.

Which port to run Wireguard on in c/privacyguides@lemmy.one
[–] cjerrington@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Changing ports isn’t a terrible thing, also not the perfect “fix” either, as you can still recognize open ports and scan the service on them.

Some ports are reserved in networking, so should stay away from those.

Some ISPs don’t allow you open ports on 80/443 as those are web hosting ports and they provide a service to consumers to download content from the internet, not for their consumer to be a web hosting provider as well. That’s at the residential level, if you have a business plan that might change, but it might be hard to convince and ISP otherwise.

I run a PiHole and have Quad9 as the upstream resolver instead of the ISP. That was pretty simple to setup as well. You can also do DNS-over-HTTPs and other options as well for content filtering to block malware and items of DNS upstream.

[META] Creating a new community is easy, but to get people on board, you need to create some content. in c/newcommunities@lemmy.world

What is hard too, is if all the posts to get things started are the mods or creator, the same ghost town might occur. It’s hard to tell or know what will be interesting to get people talking so to speak. Some should also be put on the subscribers as well who also have an interest. It’s a double edge sword sometimes.

Omnivore a Pocket Alternative in c/selfhosted@kbin.social

I'm working through the selfhost install now! we'll see how it goes and works. I asked them yesterday about their app support for mobile and custom domains. iOS is supported and they are working on adding that support for Android.

Omnivore a Pocket Alternative (omnivore.app)
 

Omnivore is the free, open source, read-it-later app for serious readers. I'm looking into setting up this read-it-later service. I have a lot of URLs saved in my browser and need a place to bookmark them as well. Thinking this is a good place to start.

Anyone else using omnivore?

Don't tell people "it's easy", and six more things KBin, Lemmy, and the fediverse can learn from Mastodon in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social
[–] cjerrington@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago

I wish one account on the fediverse was more easily used across platforms: mastodon, peertube and kbin for example. I can follow kbin on mastodon but came enjoy the thread experience of kbin. Still getting used to each platform as well as they each offer a unique experience of their own.
