I like the idea of simple apps, but does their website have to have that silly dvd bouncing thing obstructing text? Especially since it starts playing sound if you interact with it wrong.

In regards to full system backups, there’s no real need to back up the OS itself. Canonical will give you a clean Ubuntu install if you ask then nice enough, after all. Personally, the risk of having to spend an afternoon reconfiguring my system isn’t that big a deal compared to the storage and time needed to back up an entire image.
I know systems generate a lot of “cruft” in terms of instslled programs and tweaked configurations over time which can be hard to keep track of and remember. But imo that should be avoided at all costs because it leads to compatibility and security issues.
For backing up databases, there’s scripts like automysqlbackup and pg_dump which will export a database to an sql file which can be easily backed up without worrying about copying a broken file.
I actually recently set up borgmatic earlier today and I’d recommend it except for the fact that you seem to be using Docker, and I’m not sure how best to backup containers.
Daily backups here. Storage is cheap. Losing data is not.
I think a peer to peer model could work for social media, but if you’re trying to sell it using a pepe meme, I’m not interested…
But fundamentally… Why not implement what you’re thinking ontop of ActivityPub or ATProto than rolling your own thing? None of the issues you’ve described facing them are particularly insurmountable. They just need a bit of devwork.
I think convention is for files served by the server to go in /srv
or even /usr/lib
.
None, I use Nix instead. :P
Ehh… I’ll do it tomorrow.
