  • Oh, I was only aware of credits where the lender sets the amount to be the total exactly spread over the period, those are the only ones I’ve seen and taken, so each month I get a charge for the amount needed to keep up with the credit.
    For the rest then it makes sense how they make money, since I’ve had credit cards which don’t show or at the very least hide the amount to not pay interest and only tell you the minimum payment.




  • Ah, then no, the last thing I knew about it you can’t migrate accounts from one server to another, which is what you’re trying to do here.
    As I mentioned if you were able to move the keys which identify your account it would be easy for someone to impersonate you.
    Also, your public keys are shared among all the instances you’ve interacted, so this might break your interactions there.


  • Do you still have the old database? You should be able to move your instance around as long as you have a dump of your DB, that’s where all the keys of each community and user in your instance are. Those are the ones telling other instances you’re actually you, if you loose those I don’t know what can be done so other instances flush your old content and treat you as a new account. But I would count on thi s being a feature since it could lead to people impersonating someone else if they get a hold of the domain without the DB.

    EDIT: amm, maybe I didn’t understand correctly, are you trying to move to a new domain? Or to a new server with the same domain?
    What’s re-home?












  • hashtags as they can be seen on mastodon.

    I haven’t seen the federation content exchanged, in the UI I’ve only seen hashtags from mastodon as links inside the content of the post.
    For the implementation in lemmy I’d guess they need to be included in the metedata (as in one of the examples in the rfc), does mastodon already does this so lemmy can properly display them in a separate section in the ui?
    Also, how would mastodon handle not having the hashtag in the content but only in the metadata?









  • You can partially use Tailscale but yes, to use it you need to install it in all your devices.

    At first I had it installed and just had a few use cases (mainly PiHole with MagicDNS which requires installing it in all your machines). But I still connected to ssh with the ip of the machine.
    After I finished that initial set up then I closed all the ports and only allowed ssh from the tailnet.

    I think you can get away with installing it just in your reverse proxy and in the machine you want to point to if you have solved the issue of the DNS.
    One thing to have in mind with this approach is that you won’t benefit from the routing of wireguard, since all your traffic needs to pass through the reverse proxy, a better approach would be to have each service with its own tailnet ip.

    The only issue I’ve found is if you have a container in a machine with tailscale, the container doesn’t know about the tailnet unless you have host network type or some other way to share a network which actually knows about tailscale.
