Probably doesn’t. Might need to use the router to get the whole network on th vpn

When I did this I set up a VPN on my network and forced anyone that wanted to use it to get on my network.

Fwiw jellyfin apps don’t even allow you to use a self signed cert.

That seems bullshit.

Take a look at meshtastic, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meshtastic

Not exactly what you are talking about but it’s a local tech solution for communication

I don’t think federation saves us. If the server owners are in the states they still have to comply. I don’t know for certain, but I think if there are us citizens using it, some laws might compel non us based servers as well.

The only way around it that I can think of is tor. That doesn’t make it legal it would just be harder to stop.

All of this is assuming the US justice department would even care enough though.

A non-US person that causes a US person to violate US sanctions or engage in conduct that evades US sanctions may itself become subject to US sanctions.

I don’t know the text of the sanctions, but lemmy.world could be under US jurisdiction if they allow me to violate sanctions.

Seems pretty dumb to me that the US has been allowed to assert itself this much.

Are there any 501c3’s out there that I can host with? That would be the dream. Unless I guess buying into a cooperative of those exist

Yeah I don’t disagree. Corporations shouldn’t exist imo, but they do and if you don’t want to host your own things then we have to work with them.

I bet you could sync issues if you were bored enough. It’d be a pipeline that you have to maintain and two way syncs are a pain to maintain, but I bet it’s doable

Not that I condone Microsoft, but if it is a sanctioned country (Russia, Iran, North Korea, etc.). Microsoft will be in shit with the US government if they let it there.

If the project has contributors from there, then I guess they need to move off GitHub like they did.

I probably won’t, every time I open android studio I get mad and do something else, and apple I hear is even worse. If someone wants to blaze the trail for us I can help clean up stuff and write other code other than the front end.

If you want to get some folks together though I’m game. There is lots to do in a software project that isn’t coding if you want to contribute to that stuff.

I can code but I hate the mobile app dev. If you want to start something I’m game to write library code

Sorry yeah, Linux academy. Don’t know why I thought it was digital ocean

I want a generic fediverse app that lets me use all the services in one spot. Don’t think that exists

What ever happened to that network? I stopped paying attention when digital ocean dropped them all

Yeah that’s what I’m doing next. My domain name/DNS provider doesn’t let me do it though so i have to self host DNS first. Turned into quite a rabbit hole, and would have just worked if I could just get traffic on port 80!

I’ve never had an issue with the apps. It’s on my Chromecast and my android phone, and I typically stream to the TV from my phone.

My only issue is that they require a real cert (which is good tbh) and I am having trouble getting letsencrypt working due to my isp blocking port 80 and me dragging my feet getting DNS working

Just use a GitHub page. Super simple and driven by your source code.

I just gave boost $4 to remove the ads. I prefer OSS and Non Profits absolutely, but I also acknowledge that we live in a capitalist hellscape and good things take money.
