@nazokiyoubinbou @Viss Exactly

[kentenmakto@mastodon.ie]

@Viss @PamelaBarroway It's the only way to be sure.

[lonelystone@mastodon.world]

@Viss
You are conflating Bluesky giving ICE a checkmate, with ICE being able to see your posts.

If the argument is you don't want to use a platform which approves of ICE then sure, don't bridge anymore.

The feds are on every platform. Your posts are public. You're not hiding from ICE by not bridging to Bluesky.

[fragglemuppet@fandom.ink]

@Viss Done.

[j_angliss@fosstodon.org]

@Viss it took me a second to realize the issue here wasn't the actual bug report (though really, we have questions)... but the responses.

I should get more sleep

[kraftnix@noc.social]

@Viss I moved all observations to VictoriaMetrics and VictoriaLogs as its much more lightweight than Prometheus/Loki.

The servers include basic graphing, but I still end up using Grafana at the end, but only on the one machine where all the metrics and logs end up being forwarded to.

[viss@mastodon.social]

@kraftnix thats basically what im after!

[vince@infosec.exchange]

@Viss read through this thread, it’s not as pretty as grafana, but check out zabbix. Small agent runs on each host. Single port, tls + psk auth.

Zabbix server is also a single port. Can use most popular rdbms systems to store data.

Also has a great template repo, and it’s easy enough to create your own once you get the hang of it.

@Viss For dashboards, maybe https://perses.dev/ could be something interesting

[ppxl@social.tchncs.de]

@Viss argh ffs. Are there any other Bsky bridging accounts?

I follow that one solely for 1 or 2 Bsky accounts 😰

[tom@epsom.social]

@Viss If you don't want to customise things, I've been finding https://beszel.dev/ both lightweight and "good enough" for host monitoring.
It's actively developed, so keeps gaining new features like service monitoring.

[sstrader@masto.ai]

@Viss 👍

[firlefanz@writing.exchange]

@Viss

Yeah, I blocked it a while ago. Made me very, very sad - but I cannot risk the safety of my friends here.

Bluesky is licking fascists boots eagerly now and cannot be trusted anymore.

[oliviavespera@spacey.space]

@dannotdaniel @Viss @ridge you can disable bridging from the control panel in fed bridgy

is that enough?

[0xtero@ohai.social]

@Viss I went to check it out at some point because the promise of more diverse crowd with federation sounded interesting. Turns out none of it was true nor particularly interesting.

[dannotdaniel@hellions.cloud]

@OliviaVespera @Viss @ridge I don't know exactly what fed bridgy is but I would stay away from it entirely...

I'm not interested in anything even remotely designed to bridge these things

[oliviavespera@spacey.space]

@dannotdaniel @Viss @ridge

fed bridgy is the service used to bridge the fediverse and bluesky. it's what provides the "bsky.brid.gy" server. https://fed.brid.gy/ It has always been an opt in service.

Your stuff isn't automatically bridged to bluesky (and vice versa) unless you opt in. (on either side)

So most folks don't need to block bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy unless you've already opted into bridging your account.

and hence if you have bridged, you can disable it in the control panel.

@Viss @derek @thomas y'all probably saw this, but just in case 👆

[dannotdaniel@hellions.cloud]

@OliviaVespera @Viss @ridge

okay that makes sense
I guess it's enough..

I obviously never did it so there's nothing for me to disable

I think we also block the BlueSky bridge account on this entire instance

[oliviavespera@spacey.space]

@dannotdaniel @Viss @ridge No worries ^^ I think there seems to have the same fears you had about how the bridging service works. The fear and panic surrounding ICE and fascism is legitimate.

But do let folks know how this works and what we can do about it.

If there should be another federated protocol besides atproto and activitypub, i imagine bridgy fed would provide for it.

protocols over platforms, people over protocols. etc etc.

@Viss you learn that lesson real quick when you start doing business with them. $bigCorp gonna $bigCorp (it’s too late for me. Save yourselves.)
