I set the color theme to as black and white as possible, then use the themed icons because it makes the phone less attractive to look at. Contemplating on setting grayscale mode on full time.

So yes, I don't like it either.

I only use Ublock origin and Bitwarden, so that narrows the list down if so. I'm also using Flatpak.

It might coincide with FF upgrades. Can't pinpoint enough to even make a bug report.

+1 on this. Been trying to search if anyone else runs into this, but you're the first one who has had the same issue.

Can't say it's consistent, but happens maybe every week or two.

True, I failed to mention that I think there could be a setting to enable the feature, or dismiss the warning per-account. @[email protected] maybe consider this?

I have to chime in and say this feels a bit underthought feature. I use a throwaway email for everything possible, and I would imagine a large portion of Fediverse users do that too.

I also get the motivation behind the feature. I didn't feel like throwaway addresses are worth it before I started using them. They may seem like an obvious spammer flag. But I'd say it's 50/50, just like with any free email provider like gmail or Proton mail.

Thanks!

Thanks! Though @[email protected] comment looks to indicate it's actually "Top day".

Maybe people are just upvoting the same posts all over recently.

I haven't tried an OG Mastodon server, but currently running a GotoSocial instance, just for me.

With mostly the default retention etc. settings, the instance takes at most a couple gigs of storage space. If some image has been rotated, it will be refetched if you view the post again.

As for Federation, a single user instance is probably not a good idea if you're just starting with the Fediverse. Only content from accounts a user on your server follows will reach your server, including posts boosted by the people someone follows. I was already following about 150 accounts when I set it up, so I didn't really notice much difference in the home feed.

OG Mastodon can utilize relays, which will help with the lack of content.

For following topics, I made another user that follows some hashtag bots from fedi.buzz. The bots boost all posts with specific hashtags, so the posts reach my server.

If I were to do this again, I'd probably go with full Mastodon instead of GtS, just because I like the UI. There are other niceties too.

I think there's no way to keep the same domain while changing the underlying server software, without breaking federation. If someone knows a way I'd be really interested.

There aren't that many providers who have gmail-like labelling functionality, but luckily Gmail serves labels as folders over IMAP. May cause a lot of duplicates, though.

I think the article is about the sw passkeys, stored in a password manager. Not hw keys like Yubikey.

But your point is still valid. With passkeys the owner of an account would need to log in and add the passkeys of the other family members so they can log in. At the moment there's no way to share passkeys or even move them between password managers, I think.

But passkeys are still developing. I could imahine that in the future it would work like SSH keys. To allow someone to login to your account, you'd just add something like an SSH public key.

I find passkeys very convenient, but it's going to take a long time until they're supported widely enough for regular people to care.

Thanks. Last time I tried it was just after bookworm released, and on ARM, so it has probably got better

It's a really solid combo, but if you're not familiar with CoreOS I wouldn't change both at once. Meaning migrate the services to Podman first, then switch the OS. I've meant to switch from Alma 9 to CoreOS a long time, but haven't found the time.

I noticed you run Nextcloud AIO, just so you know, that's one of those "mount the docker socket" monstrosities. I'd look into switching to the community NC image and separate containers managed yourself. AIO is easy, but if someone gets shell to the NC container, it's basically giving root to your host.

Either way, you're going to have trouble running AIO with Podman.
