VST companies are gonna hate this... I made a FREE Bitwig preset that lets you "steal" the settings from any compressor VST just by looking at it. In Bitwig :D

this is just normal internet business. When I worked at a smaller ISP/datacenter we had contracts with customers promising uptime and if we failed even because our own upstream providers had outages, we had to refund/credit based on the contracts.
Now the place I work for has huge contracts with Amazon and CloudFlare. I am not sure about the CloudFlare situation, but Amazon has refunded us hundreds of thousands of dollars for outages.
So it goes.

Advice for community managers:
Use the Olivia Hill rule.
It's surprisingly easy to enforce:
Fascists get really upset and will talk to you about why the rule is bad.
You then ban them.
That's it, that's all the work it takes!

Gestern ein bisschen spontan den Umzug von Gmail zu @Tutanota vollzogen. Abgesehen von den Herzschlagmomenten beim Umzug der Domain samt DNS-Einstellungen, war das initial ganz erfolgreich.
Nicht ganz so geschmeidig ist der Workflow - Tuta reagiert an allen Ecken und Enden behäbiger, der Spam-Filter sortiert gerne echte Mails aus, aber belässt massig Spam im Posteingang. Und auch die Farbgebung ist nicht ganz meine…
Aber vielleicht gewöhnt man sich aneinander und alles wird gut 🌈☀️
I had a cheeky comment prepared for today, saying that you shouldn't rely on Cloudflare if you can afford it, and that you don't truly self-host when you use it, but I could not post it because one of the services I don't self-host —my Mastodon instance— depends on #Cloudflare, too. 😅
Friends don't let friends disable TLS server verification. (#curl is used, but the check is explicitly disabled by the app)
@fireborn Leaving to where? I ditched Spotify for Tidal, but Tidal is so much worse; I'm sorry, I went back. Spotify's GUI, especially on the phone, also with my vision rest, is the nicest, imo. I don't have an Apple device; otherwise, I'd probably be using Apple Music, but I can't get it to run on my Windows PC either and won't have a half mess just to figure out how I eventually could (MS Store version doesn't work). Nothing much left. Qobuz is basically Tidal, maybe a bit more stable, but they all have no features, too. I didn't care about crossfade when I was at Tidal, but now I'm back on Spotify, I wouldn't want it off; it's just nice.
And don't get me wrong, I totally get the problem here, but I'm sick of taking drawbacks and weird flaws, in terms of accessibility or elsewhere, just to enjoy my music. Call me egoistic, but then I don't care that much apparently.

On occasion, I feel some trepidation about no longer putting Cloudflare in front of most of my services for protection. Then today happens and it all just goes away.
I guess the internet needs another Cloudflare so Cloudflare has somewhere to host its status page.
I am thrilled to share the news that I joined @Mastodon's leadership team as Community Director alongside @mellifluousbox, our new Executive Director, and @renchap, our Technical Director.

Cloudflare seems to be having some kind of oopsie (it's probably DNS. It's always DNS) right now.
When you click on the link on their error page, it takes you to a page that says “Do you have a website? Anybody that runs a website should be on the Cloudflare network.”
Uh, read the room, #cloudflare. When people are trying to find out why your product has shit the bed, that's not really the time to make with the marketing copy about how they really really should be using it.

@gnome is cozy computing.
Adwaita apps are calm, focused, consistent. Tasks can often be done offline. Even badges for unread notifications are tinted blue and not red.
Non core apps are maintained by indie developers scratching their own itch. With GNOME Circle, a community of more experienced people help review and polish them.
GNOME is the village of Gauls peacefully resisting the Big Tech Empire with its sole existence.
I can't believe I have to say this once again, but not using AWS or Cloudflare doesn't mean your service won't go down as often.
It's just that nobody cares if the website of some little shoe manufacturer in Wyoming goes down, but everybody cares if all the websites go down *at once*. This is true even if, statistically speaking, CF / AWS go down less often than some little server located in a basement.
The old internet wasn't more resilient, your downtime on the old internet was just less corelated with everybody else's downtime, which made it less visible, and hence psychologically less of a problem.
Without CF (or somebody like them), there's no freedom of speech on the internet. If you say the wrong thing, your critics can just DeDoS you until you go away, and there's very little you can do about it. If you aren't rich enough to afford DeDoS protection, you have to be very careful when working against people who have more money than you do. This was a somewhat common occurrence back in the day, and the emergence of big social on one hand and CF on the other eliminated that problem entirely.
We should be really thankful for everything CF has done for the internet. Not every private company is as evil as people want you to think.

@midzi Which is honestly why most people are much better off with a SaaS, even if they're technically competent and perfectly capable of managing their own server.
I know why this isn't the right approach for you (storage space, a different point on the time vs. money tradeoff than most commercial organizations), but that's an exception that proves the rule.

Email actually works fine through IMAP with the $work O365 setup but calendars don't work, which is a bit painful.
