I reenabled anonymous access and predictably the site started getting hammered immediately. I blocked a bunch of broad IP ranges that were the biggest sources but I’m sure I’ve probably blocked some legit people.

@ryujin470@fedia.io It looks like your post is there: https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions?dataType=Post&sort=New

I’ve been in the business for about 25 years. I have a hard time recommending people jump in at this point, or at least to understand the market now. While there is constant talk of “unfilled cyber jobs”, the reality is that many people with experience are struggling to find a job in the field.

If you can get in and find a stable spot at a good company, it’s a great career, but those are getting hard to find I fear. Anyhow, please do a bit of reading about the job market for cyber security before making a decision.

I’m not surprised about friendica. I will ask the mbin developers to take a look. I will also take a look at lemmy - I know federation works with lemmy.world - I get enough reports about their users here to know that for sure :) I just don’t know how mentions are handled.

If I can help with your tests in some way, let me know. I manage most types of fediverse software including Fedia.io, though I’ve not yet tried piefed. I think your question is prompting me to give it a try.

right. I’ve been running infosec.exchange for going on 8 years, and the fediverse was already around for a while before that. It seems unlikely that lemmy admins, in particular, would want to do an AMA on reddit for the very reason that causes them to run a lemmy instance in the first place. but, you never know, I guess

The fediverse has existed for much longer than lemmy has. I can put you in touch with the designers of the activitypub protocol, which the fediverse uses. I’m not sure what you need though

I started shaving my head when my hair started thinning in my early 30’s. That was 25 years ago. I used to love my hair, but now I would not go back to having hair if I had the option. It took a few weeks to get used to for me.
