@Frank @Folklore @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @graf Because he is Sui, duh.
@adequate @Frank @Folklore @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer I wish the decayable kids could see your cat ears and party hat friend
send mama shroom the thing youre using ?
@fknretardlol @Folklore @Frank @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Nah you guys have to be fully moved off soybox. You're first on my list but I am waiting for hardware
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate decayable is still on soybox? lol and not pleroma?
@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate yeah because gleason got me beaned from gitlab where our source is hosted so I have to clone it, run it somewhere where gleason isn't going to get me beaned then write a migration that works for like 50 instances. You wanna do it for me?
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate will work for sheckles lol
Sounds like a pain in the ass but probably solvable. Depends if each instance has its own db or not.

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate yes. they are all independent. it's not an insurmountable task but I need hardware for every one of those instances. and I am waiting for our ISP to provide that so I can move them and migrate them at once instead of doing somehting and then redoing it again 2 months later. make sense?
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Makes sense. why do you need to wait for the isp though?
unless you get butt hurt messages to the isp.
or run them all under one.
Idk, for me, i'd probably vps the front ends across multiple services, and store the DB on owned hardware.
But thats a bigger scale than I deal with. I'd have to think about it for awhile but solvable.

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate They are replacing their entire hardware lineup. They have to move existing customers to new hardware then they open new orders. I can tell the owner I need hardware but I'm not going to put undue stress on him when its not required. He knows I need a lot of hardware and soon. Why do you give a fuck?
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate I like hardware and infastructure. Idk im a nerd?
So lets say you have 50 legit instances (i assume like 40 of them are single user or close) so what i'd do (depending on domain rep) is use proxies for the FE basically each instance would get it's own vps (again depending on budget and usuage) I'd have the front ends live on vps's and keep a master db on owned hardware I control.
Based on my usuage I may just run the db at home with fiber and an unlimited plan, and it should be good, but that still leaves the fucking media.
So for that probably colocation for the media server.

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate You should start an instance hosting company Tony seems like you'd do great.
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate
No one pays for that shit.
I'm working on some other shit that pays lol. I do b2b stuff professionally. So im working on some backend accounting stuff im going to start selling.

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Yeah. You're telling me. I've been operating at a loss for every month but 2. But I'm doing it out of pocket still because people rely on the service. It's being run as efficient as possible with the database and storage isolated on the same hypervisor with local backups and offsite. But with the lack of people now it costs me about double what I charge for it every month. so I have to get this moved when I can. again, I'm waiting
wtf tony...
you've got a dozen users

@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate

Consequences be damned

@Tony @BillingtonYVR @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate That will come back to bite you brother. I get the idea of "open communication for all" but there are people who will wind you personally up in prison if they choose to target you
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate we aren't big enough to get real attention. I've yeeted people but i just do it quietly.
We are small enough I haven't had to really make a decision yet

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Okay so you understand then. People on here whine about us blocking or banning people and I roll my eyes because nobody on this planet gives a fuck what you do as a 5 user instance. They give a fuck what they can see from mine that's in news articles and mentioned all over the internet
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate exactly. We've had some bad actors join and i just yeet them on the admin level and don't broadcast it.
we arent big enoug where there has been a real stink.
Mostly it's one or two people getting mad, i yeet them unofficially, they whine for a day, it goes away.

@graf @BillingtonYVR @Folklore @ForbiddenDreamer @Frank @adequate @fknretardlol @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @vitalis i did have to talk to my vps provider about hating trans people, but i skirted that and luckily no one got uppity enough to try again.
So its more of a we are small situation than anything.
If we do grow i'll probably keep the same "no blocks" but do it behind the curtains

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Maybe you can explain to other people who whine about poast why we do what we do. Mind you, I could tell you to kill yourself if you were trans and the owner of our ISP wouldn't give single fuck since we are more or less deplatformable now. We adhere to our rules, the ISP knows our rules. They know we act within minutes but no less than an hour on any report. They know we have automated moderation for a lot of shit that to date has a 0 fault rate I would like to add.
I spoke at length in 2021 but I will tell you the same thing I said in the past: there are three boogeymen of the "free and open internet" that is 1. dox as definited as information somebody has not posted themselves online, we limit this to the space we occupy -- if you post your dox outside of poast it's off limits unless you post it here. 2. verifiable or credible threats -- if you post a threat on here especially with motive or a plan it will be reported to authorities. 3 - illegal content such as revenge porn, csam, etc

@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate All i can say man, is if im going to stay in this space, I'm going to have an income engine behind it.
Thats it.
It's not going to be from donantions. It'll be from an actual business otherwise it'll get crushed by bullshit

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate Don't rely on an income from this sphere you will *never* attain it
@graf @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate exactly.
The money has to come from an outside source and it has to be a decent amount or it will get crushed by faggots. But even 2-4k/month in free income would change the game.
imagine if poast was just a line item.

@Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate I'd like to imagine my brains on the ceiling of somewhere nice but that's not going to happen either. I understand your optimism but the current landscape here is not financial gain and if you think you can get it you are crazy
@OeakEyDoork @Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate i love you powah you make me laugh
@graf @Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate if you laugh at me or at me it doesn't matter
@graf @Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate how is your other Dan keeping up?
@OeakEyDoork @Tony @Folklore @Frank @fknretardlol @vitalis @BillingtonYVR @koropokkur @spacemanspiff @ForbiddenDreamer @adequate want me to call him on the horn rn?
