Id say tonnes of projects now just sort of work best via docker, so rather than mess around with installation instructions for multiple distros and etc, a single docker image is just way easier to maintain documentation on

I am very much in favor of this.
I have a small collection of short horror I have been working on, on my personal website, and it turns out there is no subreddit on reddit that you can share your own horror stories on.
Before you suggest it, /r/NoSleep had extremely specific requirements for the formats of stories you post, you couldnt just post any ole horror story to there.
Aside from that there were a couple small places you could share writing in general for review, but that was much more focused on actual writing critiques and not just general sharing of stuff.
Would be nice to see a general scary story hive where we can post and read stuff folks have read
I have been batting around the concept of a federated algorithm that works akin to Herd Immunity
Through Consensus, communities should be able to individually choose to block a specific community, and then you can configure your community to block a community if enough of its trusted communities block it as well.
So if you have 10 trusted communities and 8/10 of those have blocked community A, then you will also block community A implicitly because you trust them.
Largely yes, but I have found WSL2 can kinda trip over itself a little bit when it tries to do serial stuff, sometimes.
USB device access and whatnot kind of works, but it can be a bit sketch.
No, twitter just shit the bed is all and thats where the scams were primarily spread, but now that so many people have dropped twitter you don't hear about it as much.
Pretty much 1/3rd of the ads I get on Reddit, for example, are still crypto scams.
I will agree though that it lost the crypto-bro sheen, thank god, and companies stopped trying to shoehorn it into everywhere it had no use case for.
There are use cases for it but they are extremely specific and most of the time a normal database is the right tool for the job. You need to satisfy multiple conditions for a blockchain to be the right tool for the job over a normal DB.
Furthermore, even if you do satisfy the requirements and use blockchain tech, its annoying to try and market that. Just as an example, how often do you see video game companies or gambling companies or other websites touting the fact they have, I dunno, a Redis mem server on their backend as a "selling point" of their service?
No one. No one does that, no one cares. No one tries to market what database their backend uses as a way to make their product sound better, because no one gives a shit what your backend is built on top of. They care about the actual features and functionality of your product, not the tech your developers used.
So hopefully we have now entered the era where some services do use blockchain on the backend when its the right tool or the job, but they don't bother to try and market it and no one gives a shit if its MSSQL, Blockchain, Mongo, or whatever else that is used to store data.
I would say specifically the hardest part for self hosting is the grok'ing of how SSL works and setting it up right with automatic renewal.
There's a lot of extra steps involved often.
Id also say understanding how routing works and why you need a reverse proxy is the other big one.
Summarized:
Bigots are astonished to discover they are largely unwelcome in society and that their actions have consequences, and that the majority of people (especially in places like a debate club) are not interested in giving bigots a platform.
Later tonight: Sports Celebrity is astonished to discover that even though he is really good at , he is kicked off the team for criminal actions earlier that week.
