[2025-02-15T06:08:03Z] its a pubnix basically. I use it for irc, to stay connected, as oposed to a bouncer [2025-02-15T06:10:35Z] the tilde is infact a whole community of communities of sorts [2025-02-15T06:10:45Z] https://tildeverse.org/ [2025-02-15T06:10:53Z] theres even more unlisted afaik [2025-02-15T06:11:18Z] neato [2025-02-15T06:13:05Z] Its a cool idea, if it werent for the fact that Im disconnected from time to time :p [2025-02-15T06:23:30Z] not sure if they just keep rebooting the vps, or if tmux is killed by the admins of w/e. I just find it annoying [2025-02-15T06:23:53Z] i just have soju running on one of my vps' [2025-02-15T06:24:09Z] i usually do a monthly reboot or so depending on vulns and whatnot [2025-02-15T06:24:26Z] i run a rolling release on all of my stuff though so i usually try to keep my systems fairly updated [2025-02-15T06:25:14Z] I get that. running fedora or something? [2025-02-15T06:25:31Z] im starting to consider a vps, but Im not a fan of having to pay for something that I can get for free :p [2025-02-15T06:25:57Z] i run void on like 14/17 of my systems [2025-02-15T06:26:02Z] there are some free tier vps' though [2025-02-15T06:26:09Z] the others are a mix of freebsd, openbsd, and 2 debian boxes [2025-02-15T06:26:15Z] damn, you got 17 systems? [2025-02-15T06:26:21Z] im including VMs and containers [2025-02-15T06:26:25Z] ah [2025-02-15T06:26:26Z] and base installs [2025-02-15T06:26:32Z] its a lot to keep up to date since void rolls [2025-02-15T06:26:48Z] why on earth do you need 17 though? [2025-02-15T06:26:54Z] i host a *lot* of stuff [2025-02-15T06:27:01Z] I see [2025-02-15T06:27:52Z] most of it isnt public though [2025-02-15T06:28:02Z] one of the few things that is would be my searxng instance at https://search.kris.sh/ [2025-02-15T06:29:19Z] that's also probably the most high maintenance thing i host because usually when i sync my fork with upstream i have to find out what PR broke XYZ [2025-02-15T06:29:23Z] hm, I see. I never really knew what I would do with a vps, but I suppose I would just host a few things instead. invidious for one perhaps [2025-02-15T06:29:40Z] sounds tedious [2025-02-15T06:29:50Z] somewhat but it shits on every other search engine [2025-02-15T06:29:56Z] as oposed to just running ddg [2025-02-15T06:29:58Z] I get that [2025-02-15T06:30:58Z] well searxng searches are actually anonymized [2025-02-15T06:31:13Z] the reason this is public is because the more people that use it the less identifiable searches become [2025-02-15T06:31:19Z] i pipe all logs to /dev/null [2025-02-15T06:31:48Z] this being public is also slightly shitty because i have maybe 20 minutes to resolve any broken PRs and get it back up before people start complaining [2025-02-15T06:35:17Z] I get that. do you have a pastebin aswell? if not, consider hosting 0x0.st thingy [2025-02-15T06:35:22Z] as an example if anything [2025-02-15T06:36:31Z] i used to host a thing my friend wrote called bobashare but i got worried about people uploading illegal content of some sort [2025-02-15T06:36:41Z] protections against that don't apply to an individual like they do a company [2025-02-15T06:37:13Z] bobashare being a file upload and paste server [2025-02-15T06:38:33Z] https://github.com/BBaoVanC/bobashare [2025-02-15T06:44:57Z] there *is* a vps host called kyun that accepts monero and just gives you an account hash, similar to mullvad [2025-02-15T06:45:06Z] so if treated correctly you don't identify yourself at all and get an affordable server out of it [2025-02-15T06:45:15Z] i just don't really want to pay more money to host 1 thing [2025-02-15T07:21:25Z] regarding searx, wouldnt it make more sense to use upstream searx? regarding the anonymity part atleast [2025-02-15T07:22:07Z] yeah, 0x0.st also menstions this, and will ban you if you uploa anything illegal [2025-02-15T07:22:56Z] probably but id rather selfhost [2025-02-15T07:23:00Z] and i forked it to change a few things [2025-02-15T07:34:25Z] I get that. selfhosting is nice. atleast when tits benefitial :p [2025-02-15T07:40:34Z] tits? [2025-02-15T07:40:56Z] lol, yes [2025-02-15T07:40:59Z] tiddies [2025-02-15T08:15:26Z] specifically 13 of them [2025-02-15T08:16:54Z] 13 pairs or 13 individual ones [2025-02-15T08:19:15Z] individual ones [2025-02-15T08:44:59Z] the more the merrier
