How reliable is it to self host SimpleLogin, AnonAddy (addy), etc? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] adonis@kbin.social 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Yeah, I'm not that concerned about receiving, since I was able to send a mail with swaks and it came through in proton.

So, the forwarding system is basically like running an own mailserver, right?

I checked out addy too, but SL and their browser extension seem just more feature rich.

I have a private @gmail and a business @company.com (also via gmail), which I heavily rely on. Due to a recent data-leak somewhere, I'm now receiving unstoppable spam on my @gmail, and decided to set up a new account on proton and ditch @gmsil in favor of @example.com. I came across SimpleLogin, and thought that I could use that instead of protons custom domain feature for both @company.com and @example.com

Since I also host some stuff myself, I went through the self-hosting process of SimpleLogin, which was a pita dealing with postfix. But now, everything is running fine and I can send/receive @exampke.com emails, which I tested with @gmail and @company.com (gmail).

Even though it was a nice learning experience, I'm starting to wonder whether my setup is future proof and reliable, especially when it comes to spam. I really don't want my @company.com mails to land in customers spam folders.

So my question is, how reliable is a self hosted email-forwarding solution, and how does it compare with a self-hosted mail service. Like, are these two equal in terms when it comes to precautions etc?

Do any of you use Raspberry Pi’s ? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I wanted to reuse one for octoprint, but it turned out to be unreliable. So I switched to my NUC instead.

I have the feeking that those SD cards just don't perform well and wear out more easily, and I really use good ones.

Anyone got any tips for knocking a migraine when medicine doesn’t seem to be enough? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] adonis@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

I'm struggling with headache for decades now. I was also obese for the most part of my life, and doctors always blamed it on obesity since MRI scans didn't show anything (thankfully).

When I lost weight I went to a neurologist and he put me on migraine meds which didn't help.

A few months after contracting covid in February 2023, my headaches got worse, so I went to a neurologist, doing an MRI again, which, as hoped and expected, showed nothing. So the doc put me on Amitriptyline, 5mg the first week, then 10mg.

The 5mg already showed successful results for 6 days... I was in a better mood, and I haden't felt any headaches except for the last day. I'm now on 10mg and I hope to go through summer without any headaches.

In any case, go see a doctor.

Why do you use Lemmy over Kbin? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Why can't we have a unified API across the fediverse to use in mobile apps? (kbin.social)
 

Is there a reason why all the services, that use the ActivityPub protocol don't have a unified API?

None of the mastodon apps allow me to log in with a lemmy/kbin account.

Also none of the lemmy apps allow me to log in with a kbin account.

Even though kbin has both mastodon (microblogging) and lemmy (threads, communities) functionality.

Also, Pixelfed recently introduced "login with Mastodon", but all it really does is just create a new user on it's instance and copy over the mastodon followers and profile info.

Why can't we just have one account to rule them all?

How should we deal with similarly named communities? (kbin.social)
 

Right now there are similarely named communities across the fediverse.

"fediverse@xxx", "Linux@xxx", "asklemmy", "askkbin"..etc...

I'm on kbin and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to use the fediverse more productively, by reaching the largest amount of people for asking questions, solving problems, simply put: to engage... like I used to do on Reddit?

I wrote my own streaming app for Android TV. Do you want me to open source it? (kbin.social)

I've been using my own streaming app for the past few years now.

I decided to rock my own thing because of the following reasons. Since many of the existing ones are closed source, you never know what data is collected. Kodi is fine, but I prefer nice UIs to browse my favorite content. And lastly, I'm a passionate developer.

The app consists of 3 parts:

  • the TV app itself
  • a backend service to fetch data from trakt/tmdb
  • a backend service for openscrapers (real debrid)
  • external player of choice (nova, vlc, ...)

To get it up and running, you'd need to run the two backend services on your own server and install an external player like Nova, since it doesn't provide a built-in player.

Would you guys be interested in it so I make my repos publicly available?
