  • I have one VM for running Docker stuff (i.e. the arr stack, jellyfin, etc.). Unless your hypervisor supports docker containers natively, separating them is just going to make it more difficult for you for no good reason.

    I don’t run anything else in Docker right now, but if I did, I’d probably stick it in the same VM for now to save on overhead. If it was enough to be its own stack, I’d separate it.

    ClamAV is great for exactly one thing: checking the “has antivirus” checkbox on company security audits.

    Don’t get me wrong, it’s a real AV product, but there’s no real need for it. You’ll get much better results just being careful about what you run and having a system and network firewall. And not running everything as root.








  • First, don’t use .local, as it’s used by mDNS. You should use .internal or a domain you own. I recommend changing before you get any more committed to your environment.

    I’m not really following your post, because you’re not specifying whether each point is on the server or laptop.

    Personally, I dislike Ubuntu on the server because of how it runs stuff like systemd-resolvd, which as you’ve experienced, gets in the way of standard operation.



  • Lemmy should do something like make captcha and email verification the default in the next version, and reject federation from anyone with a lower version. If we accept federation from any instance where this was never turned on, banning accounts one by one is worse than Sisyphean. They’ll just keep finding more vulnerable instances that are already trusted and abuse them to spam the rest of the fediverse.

    If admins want to manually turn it off, then they should be prepared to manage that.
