The “easy” route is to use Mailcow. It spins up the entire mail stack as Docker containers and only requires minimal configuring and is easy to keep updated. You’ll still need to properly set all the required DNS records (like SPF, DKIM, DMARC) if you want others to actually receive your mail and not treat it as spam. But Mailcow has a UI that helps with most of the records you’ll need to set.

If you’re doing it just as a learning experience, you could go for configuring Postfix, Dovecot etc. manually. The last time I did it, I used this tutorial as a base. It’s not fully up to date, but it can still serve as a solid starting point.

Other users cannot. Your instance admin can obviously see it if they want. Then, it depends on the settings of your instance if all media downloads from other instances are proxied through your instance (hiding your IP from other instance admins) or not. I’m not sure if it’s enabled by default or not.

Agreed

I use Caddy and it’s great. ACME is very easy to configure, as is everything else. I haven’t tried running it in a container tho but they have official images published so it should work without issues.

Slowing down enough is the same thing than being unavailable. Imagine someone is sending you 1000 text messages per minute from different numbers all over the world. Your phone handles it fine but you have to manually read every single message to check if it’s spam or something important. By the time you reach that one real message where your crush asked if you wanna hang out, it’s way too late and they already asked someone else.

I’ve had a good experience with mailcow. It’s not the most lightweight tho, and spins up quite a few containers.

Obviously I’m not a lawyer but I don’t see what law they could use to shut it down. All it’s doing is accessing publicly available data via a proxy. It’s not like it’s exploiting Instagram somehow.

If they wanna stop it, they can do what Twitter did and start requiring an account to see almost anything. Personally I suspect Meta is slowly going towards that.

Awesome! Got it running and seems to work well. Also I love the CLAUDE.md file you got there in the repo 🐈

Most browser compatibility issues come from JavaScript, not HTML/CSS. Unless you want to support ancient/dead browsers (like Internet Explorer or non-HTML5 browsers), it’s very likely there won’t be any issues.

MDN has a compatibility table for every HTML tag and CSS property. For a simple static site I would just manually check there.

Sadly I don’t see what they could have done. I don’t think international law would have allowed them to intercept the plane even if they had wanted to. It would have been a very interesting situation tho if the plane had a problem and would have been forced to make an emergency landing in one of the three countries.

Sure, but I would still argue the bathroom light switch should be located, I don’t know, next to the bathroom door? And most definitely there shouldn’t be two totally useless switches there.

I don’t think I would like to work for a company that struggles this much with light switches…

I think I was asked this very question in an interview once. I think I answered something along the lines of ‘If you have a light switch like that here in the office, the first thing I would recommend is calling in an electrician to change and move the switch to the correct room. Why would you have a light switch that controls a light in a different room and apparently two switches that do nothing??’

Got the job.

Seems they updated it to ports 1024 - 65535 which is only marginally better. Meaning someone at Nintendo put some thought into it and still decided that this is the best guidance they can give…

The level of categorization they do is kinda crazy. Looking for some barefoot woman wearing jeans? (241 images) Or maybe interested in churches in Ecuador photographed in 2007? Of course they have that! (45 images)

One of the first settings I change on any new system is to make the cursor green. Seems to help enormously with this.

I’m not in the loop about dot world moderation policies, but I think it’s good to try to move communities away from the largest instances regardless. That way one of the large instances going offline one day won’t have as big of an impact.

I chose one from this list: https://github.com/forwardemail/awesome-mail-server-providers?tab=readme-ov-file#vps-and-dedicated-mail-server-provider-comparison-table

I recently set up the whole stack (Postfix, Dovecot, OpenDKIM) on a VPS. I wanted to do it from home, but my ISP won’t provide a static IP or open ports 25/465/587 for consumer customers, no exceptions.

It took me about two days to get everything working, but most of that was because I went in with very little knowledge of how email even actually works. If you’re looking for a learning experience, I’d say go for it. If you just want a working email setup quickly, I wouldn’t recommend it.

I haven’t noticed any deliverability issues so far. Just make sure you have SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and PTR records all set correctly from the start.

Finally took the time to watch the first season of HBO’s The Last of Us. I watched the first episode on Friday evening and then binged the rest over the weekend.

I never played the game, but I know the basics of its plot. I liked the story for the most part, and I think the amazing cast saved it on parts where the writing was a little meh. I’m not a big fan of the ending tho, seemed very rushed.

I’m still contemplating whether to watch season two next, given it has received far less favorable reviews.
