Who cares if it already exists, just make it.

Also consider the possibility when the other, more popular projects got enshittified. Now the fleeing users have an option to switch to your project. It actually happened on one of my side project. I made it because I want to try building my own version of X. It got ~2000 users, but later down the road, X got sold to a new shitty owner that waste no time to enshittify it, and my side project suddenly grow to 20,000 users overnight.

Does ssh works? If yes, you can use autossh to create persistent ssh tunnel to your VPS.

So that's why the old unix programmers call their program a daemon

You could unsubscribe from those meme communities and then use "all" view whenever you're in the mood for some memes, and your "subscribed" view won't be drown with memes.

Given how active those meme communities right now, chance that the "all" view in your instance are being dominated by memes anyway, so it's not like you'll have to subscribe to see them.

If you compare post per days from before the strike, it definitely falls. It's no longer an upward trajectory despite subscribers growth.

If you look at the charts you linked, you can see the users activity (post per day and comments per day) is falling sharply since last month. Subscribers count mean nothing if a big proportion of the active posters leave.

According to IETF, you should only use .intranet, .internal, .private, .corp, .home or .lan for your private network ( RFC 6762 Appendix G ). Using other TLDs might cause issues in the future, especially since new gTLDs seems to show up every few months or so, which can collide with the TLD you use for your local network.

Went to hackernews the other day. Tried to upvote a comment, then it asked me to login. Put in my login, hit the button, and boom, it redirected back to the original page, and the comment I was attempting to upvote is successfully upvoted! I was expecting I'll need to press the upvote button again, but I don't even need to do that. My mind was blown. Wish more websites do this.

One common criticism about Tailscale is it has too many features for a networking product, which increase the likelihood of bugs that can lead to security compromise (e.g. Tailscale SSH ), especially when compromised tailscale network means the malicious actors have full access to your internal network.

I always want to self host my own search engine, but alas, I'm not a billionaire.

What do you expect? All sensible people are probably already left the sub at this point, as evidenced by all those comments in the post you linked.
