  • My primary use case is safeguarding my important personal artifacts (family photos, digitized paperwork, encryption key / account recovery / 2FA backups) against drive failure (~2TB), followed by my decently sized Plex server (23TB), immich, nextcloud, and various other small things like selfhosted bitwarden, grocy, ollama, and stuff like that.

    I run all of my stuff off of a 6 bay Synology (more drives helps with capacity efficiency as double redundancy with 6 drives costs you 30% and I wanted to be protected against drive failures during rebuilding) with an Intel nuc on top to run plex/jellyfin transcoding using quicksync instead of loading the poor nas with cpu transcoding, I also run ollama on the nuc since it has faster cores than the nas.

    The thing is the missing comments are all in English, and they affect entire posts and not just certain commenters so it probably isn’t related to the language setting for individual comments, otherwise only certain comments would be missing and not the whole thread. Plus I already have all languages enabled. As a test I also found one commenter from an empty thread and viewed other posts they commented on and both their comment and everyone else’s showed up. If it was related to people marking their comments wrong I would expect it to affect their comments on other threads too.

    I’m curious if the problematic posts are the same for others, for example this thread with 60+ comments is one that shows empty in sync but with the correct comment count: https://lemmy.ml/post/22091314

    And this post too with ~20 comments, also all in English: https://lemmy.ml/post/22089346

    I double checked and my account settings on the web UI have all languages selected, and sync even shows the correct count for comments, just doesn’t display any of them.







  • Don’t wp updates and plugins only come from one of the 2? Anyway I’m pretty sure they’re just mad that wpengine uses bandwidth from the wp update infrastructure without paying instead of hosting their own update infrastructure, which basically means that selfhosters / individuals are not the target. That said it still sounds like the dude is being hella petty about it.







  • The key difference is that during normal use, the private key of the passkey doesn’t leave the device (or password manager). The passkey basically comes in 2 parts, the public and private (secret) part. In order to log in, the website presents a cryptographic challenge that is only solvable using your private key - and crucially you can solve the challenge without revealing your private key. An attacker could get your answer to the challenge and still be unable to solve additional challenges without the private part of your passkey.

    This of course makes it basically impossible to manually log in using a passkey and a keyboard, without any password manager to do the cryptographic calculations (unless you have a LOT of paper and time), but the security advantage of making it near impossible to be phished is generally regarded as a net positive. In order to steal a passkey there would need to be a vulnerability in the software, since passkeys make it much harder to trick a user into giving it away (since tricking the user into logging in on a fake website doesn’t work due to the aforementioned cryptography, the main way to steal a passkey would be to trick the user into exporting it - which is a much higher bar).
