Hello folks,

TIL that how can you bootstrap my DHT nodes before downloading a torrent.

Find a good famous software from fosstorrent and seed it for some while and then when you seed it for some time, your DHT count will be increased. now you can easily download a torrent by just providing the hash of the torrent ( assuming some DHT node knows where the file of the given hash is ).

hope you learned something new today, if you have a good idea than this feel free to add it in the comment section :)

Hello folks,

I got my static IP and I am very happy now, I have been hosting a lot of services since I got the static IP, however I still have to host a fediverse service however it's not that easy to host any fediverse service, I tried to host GoToSocial but the devs said they don't support Podman and my server is podman only ( I tried installing docker but it was failing for some reason so I gave up and used podman instead of docker).

these are the services I am currently hosting ( basically all the easy services which you can host with just "docker compose up -d" :p ):

• Invidious: https://invidious.ghodawalaaman.duckdns.org/
• Qbittorrent ( web ui )
• TheLounge
• XMPP server: https://chat.ghodawalaaman.duckdns.org/

feel free to suggest some other cool services which I can host :D

Hello,

I have hosted azuracast in my minipc and I want to forward the IP of the song requester, right now it's only taking one IP the "podman container ip" so basically Azuracast thinks that every request is coming from the IP address 10.89.1.1 which is the IP of interface created by podman.

57: podman3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 0e:fa:6d:33:b9:39 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 10.89.1.1/24 brd 10.89.1.255 scope global podman3
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 fe80::b876:abff:fede:c3ef/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

also I am explicitly forwarding the IP using X-Forwarded-Host.

reverse_proxy http://localhost:4000/ {
		header_up X-Forwarded-Host {host}
	}

I don't know how to resolve it, any help would be appreciated :)

Edit: I didn't had to so any of this stuff, what I should have done is just enabling "reverse proxy" option in Azuracast since Caddy forwards those headers by default unlike nginx. Thank you very much for helping me <3

Hello,

It's been a while since I started finding Whatsapp alternative, I found IRC, XMPP, Signal etc, however the thing is that I can't convince other people to use Whatsapp, I can't say that "ohh it's bad for privacy" otherwise they will say "you are not a president, nobody cares about your messages". also I don't live in western country so I can't just say "I don't want to use Whatsapp" otherwise people will get mad saying "you are not a VIP, everyone uses whatsapp and you are not special".

however I found a way so that people won't blame me for not using Whatsapp, I have to somehow get banned from Whatsapp and then when people ask "why don't you use whatsapp" then I can say "ohh umm I don't know it stopped working, you can find me on Signal". that way people will be ready to install Signal to talk to me.

what are your thoughts? is it even possible to get perma banned from Whatsapp?

Hello,

I have been using erc ( IRC client ) for quite some time and I really like how it's integrated inside emacs. for past few days I have been trying out XMPP and would like to have a XMPP client inside emacs.

I searched on DDG to find an emacs client however none of them were actively maintain and the last commit was years ago.

is there a XMPP client written in elisp?

Thanks in advance!!

Hello,

I was looking to make a custom ROM for my device as a hobby project however I have zero knowledge of Android. I have never compiled AOSP myself nor used a custom ROM for a long time.

It would be great if we have a Android wiki like we have Arch wiki

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I don't know if it's just me or duckdns.org is actually down for everyone else. I can't nslookup my domain name also can't access my website.

Edit: It's back on :)

Greetings,

my current ISP refuses to provide me a static IP and they also blocks incoming connection to my ipv6 so I can't host services on just ipv6 too. I will be changing my ISP when the plan expires.

without public IP I can host my own IRC bouncer but I would like to know what else can I self host? Thanks in advance!
