all your half-finished projects are still experience that contributes directly to your skills and confidence. the dozen half-finished projects are the seeds of the finished one that you could never have handled a decade ago.
How to backup a live gotosocial database
rm /gotosocial/backup.db
sqlite3 /gotosocial/sqlite.db "VACUUM INTO '/gotosocial/backup.db'"
I'm surprised to not find any crowdfunding project to manage a new community driven top level domain (TLD).
All TLDs seen to be owned by countries or U.S. org/firms.
I have not found an open and independent TLD. I miss something?
My old 7" tablet can also run #Tusky !!!
I think that my attempt to use it ONLY for reading is actually failing 😬
I would like to acquire an eBook reader. I see that the #Kobo readers can connect to nextcloud with app #KoboCloud.
Do you use this solution ?
Any advice for Linux users to purchase the right reader: compatibility with Linux, or Nextcloud or ownCloud (no Dropbox neither GDrive for me), able to read non-drm epub and PDF.
Thanks for you help (RT if you think your followers could help)
tonight a water mains broke and much of east #Berlin (easily a million people or more) had no water for several hours and the only place there was any official information to be found was on fucking Twitter? Come on, how hard is it to put this on the water company's website?
Pour me changer les idées d'#osm, je me suis créé un site qui se veut #smolweb avec gohugo.io afin d'y basculer toutes mes #recettes de #cuisine.
Avec un site léger, les temps de chargement sont incroyablement brefs. J'aime bien #nextcloud et #cookbook, mais d'abord on ne peut pas rendre publique les recettes, et ensuite ce sont vraiment des pages obèses.
Il me reste quelques centaines de recettes à basculer 🥴 mais c'est en route 😋

Our lives are a slow betrayal of our ideals.
#Confession: I preach the #SmolWeb and #LowTech and still pay for Netflix.
Hypocrisy isn't a bug, it's a feature of human nature!
And you, what are your most deepest #contradictions?

#gotosocial v0.19.0 is running!
Here are Ten Pointless Facts About Me
https://forkingmad.blog/ten-pointless-facts-about-me/
I love doing these blogging challenges. A little bit of fun, and you get to know the personality behind the account a tiny bit more. 😊
Go on, get blogging with your own. You know you want to.
What's that coming over the hill, is it a monster? Is it a monster?
Yes actually, it's version 0.19.0 of #GoToSocial, aka Seditious Sloth 😈! It's busted out of the release candidacy process and it's ready to kick some ass.
You can get the release from here:
https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial/releases/tag/v0.19.0
Or use either the latest or 0.19.0 Docker tag.
The update contains several database migrations, so please read the migration notes carefully for instructions on how to upgrade to this version!
Release highlights
- OAuth token scope enforcement: Token scopes (
read,writeetc) now actually do stuff! So we removed the big "scopes don't do stuff!" warning in the docs. The enforced scopes match the Mastodon API token scopes, so there shouldn't be any surprises for bot owners / app developers.
See https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/api/swagger/ for more info. - Token review / invalidation: You can now review and invalidate tokens issued for your account in the settings panel, to help keep your account secure.
Docs: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/user_guide/settings/#access-tokens - Create and manage applications in the settings panel: Handy for people who want to run bots and applications with GoToSocial!
Docs: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/user_guide/settings/#applications - Gallery-style profile layout option: You can now choose to lay out the web view of your profile in a 'gram style gallery. Good for people who mostly post media and want to put that at the forefront.
Docs: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/user_guide/settings/#select-layout - Support for two-factor authentication (aka 2FA): If your instance isn't configured to use an OIDC provider, you can now secure your account with 2FA via a QR code and an authenticator app. When logging in with 2FA enabled, you will have to provide a time-based one-time password. Security!
Docs: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/user_guide/settings/#two-factor-authentication - Lots of web view tweaks including nicer media rendering on chrome, proper blurhash support, much better support for keyboard-based page navigation, wider font support for different scripts, tidier status info bar, and more.
- OAuth bugfixes should allow more flexibility and compatibility when logging in with or authorizing third-party applications.
- bandwagon.fm compatibility fixes: you can now follow Bandwagon.fm artists from your GoToSocial account and receive posts / announcements from them.
- Edit domain permissions: you can now edit the obfuscate and public and private comment fields in domain permissions (blocks/allows) instead of having to remove and recreate the permission to update the comments.
You don't know what #religion I am?
That's normal, I keep that to myself. Maybe it's because I'm French and in my country secularism is a dogma. For me, religion is part of intimacy and privacy.
I’m not trying to go viral.
I’m trying to be useful.
To someone.
Somewhere.
That’s enough.

Block non-human crawlers with lighttpd
2025-04-20 19:05
Recently, I've put a copy of some ZIM files online with kiwix-server. I posted the url of this site on the Fediverse and, a few days later, the little server was a bit overloaded. The logs showed that the site was being crawled by search engines and AI training bots. There was no reason to let them. A robots.txt file calmed some, but not others.
Analysing user agents and IP addresses is not the answer, because, everything is done to make it complicated (randomisation, many datacenter origins). I thought about Cloudflare protection, Google captcha or the open source solution Anubis. All of them require javascript to be enabled on the human browsers.
After several tests, I have found a simple method to stop these crawlers.
The principle
When a connection arrives on the web server, it checks to see if the request comes with a cookie. If it does not, the web server redirects the browser to an HTML form that asks the user to tick a checkbox and submit. If the user submits the form correctly, he or she receives a cookie and is redirected to the previously requested page. The new request is made with a cookie. So, the web server does its job and send the expected content.
I think I've managed to curb AI crawlers with a simple HTML form that drops a cookie.
I'll see if it holds up and make a post about it.
It protect my #kiwix server
w is the preferred subdomain for smolweb sites
A simple way for a website to indicate that it adheres to the smolweb guidelines is to use the subdomain w instead of www.
This short subdomain is very much in the spirit of smolweb.
This is not a requirement, just a suggestion.
w.example.org is visually different from www.example.org or example.org.
