Big fan of letsencrypt’s certbot with the nginx and cloudflare (or other dns providers) plugins.
Is there any reason to use caddy or traefik over nginx?

Torrents can be encrypted as well, and there isn’t a need for a VPN unless you use public trackers, which I don’t recommend.
What is the monthly fee for Usenet? I’m more in favor of decentralized systems with the use of seedboxes to speed up distribution, but I’m not against usenet either.
I run my own instance and the one thing I will say is that I don’t see as much content browsing all on my own instance versus all on lemmy.world. Not sure why that is.
The download speed on any popular release will max out even the fastest connections. I assume the retention for less popular content is a lot better on trackers, but I don’t have enough experience with usenet to say that for sure.

What features?
I didn’t know that. Thank you for clarifying.
Oh man, now I’m even more jealous.
I really like ansible and have played around with using it to deploy a seedbox. I still want to get it working, but I’ve given up on doing it all purely through ansible. At this point, I’m thinking the best route is using ansible to deploy swizzin with an environment file and unattended install
I don’t understand the big push to defederate from other instances when individual users can block instances as they please.
Well I would recommend it since it works, hence the name, shitjustworks lol.
In all seriousness, you can’t start a new platform and simultaneously expect to exclude large segments of potential users. Shitjustworks seems to toe the line better than other instances. They ban spam/bots while still allowing most content.
Generally, I recommend avoiding the top two instances if you are considering creating an account, and I would recommend avoiding beehaw for other reasons. So that leaves you at shitjustworks.
Please tell me what I can get on usenet that isn’t on PTP, BTN, or RED.
I would bet that 99/100 releases are uploaded to private trackers before usenet.
I host from home but have a 10gb uplink.
Fuck outta here (as i cry in american)
Swizzin is definitely the most prominent solution for selfhosting a seedbox. I highly recommend it.
if you can
Everyone can.
I got in via an interview for what.cd, way back in the day. The interview process is still a viable way in for those willing to put a bit of time in.
Of the top five, sh.itjust.works seems to be the best. Definitely the instance that I would recommend to new users.
To be fair, r/all would always have tons of NSFW posts before reddit started filtering them from the front page ~2 years ago.
In mid-May 2023, the home of one of Kolektiva.social’s admins was raided, and all their electronics were seized by the FBI. The raid was part of an investigation into a local protest.
Why are houses being raided over a protest?
