Asides

A lot of banks in the Philippines still rely on SMS for #2FA, despite how insecure it is—easily spoofed, intercepted, and unreliable. Some use in-app confirmations via their mobile app, but if you lose access to your phone, you’re probably locked out. Why not support standard authentication apps like #2FAS, #Aegis, #Bitwarden, #Vaultwarden, or #KeePassXC, which have TOTP support and easy backups? That way, I wouldn’t have to worry about losing access. #MFA #MultiFactorAuthentication #Security

One good advantage of #GoToSocial is it accepts up to 5,000 characters toots/statuses/messages, compared to just 500 in #Mastodon (at least in my #FossTodon instance). I can post blog-like contents in here.

Received this email from #GreenCloudVPS:

We would like to inform you about an upcoming data center migration for our SG DC1. As of April 2025, our current SG DC1 upstream provider, Datacamp/CDN77, will cease operations at Digital Realty (formerly known as Cyxtera), the facility where our rack is currently located. As a result, we will be relocating our rack to a new upstream provider, xTom, at Global Switch Tai Seng.

The migration is scheduled to take place in mid-March 2025. During this process, we anticipate a service outage lasting approximately 12–24 hours. No data or IP addresses will be affected. We will provide the exact date and time in a follow-up email once confirmed.

I just hope this happens at night. This server is so important to me it runs several important scripts. And hopefully, the outage won’t take that long.

Support for multiple domain names is in the roadmap for #PangolinTunnel. Hopefully it’ll be implemented soon. docs.fossorial.io/∞

#Kopia is great. At least it didn’t fail me so far. However, here are my gripes about it:

1. You need to run separate instances if you want to use multiple repositories
2. The cache and logs folders can bloat that they sometimes occupy significant server storage.

It keeps me wondering, if I’m gonna install #PangolinTunnel, why not go directly with #CloudflareTunnel?

#Blinko now has a plugin system, and the first plugin available in the marketplace is my requested feature, a permalink to my notes! How cool is that?! github.com/∞
