@AEMarling @ChaoticNeutralCzech The two in your projection are definitely appropriate, and are how I found your post. Maybe #GuerillaActivism and #ClimateCrisis. Be sure to use PascalCase for hashtags so that screen readers break them into sane words, and use alt text for your images :)

@schmorpel additionally, using containers allows for wrapping of dependencies. If I have one application that uses python 2.7 and another that uses python 3, installing both versions on the host system could cause conflicts. But containers have separated file systems, so they can each have their own dependencies without conflict. Mastodon runs a web service to serve http content, a database, various workers etc that can all run together on an separate network stack from other containers.

@schmorpel It's about defense in depth. If you are running an application inside of a docker container, it's much more difficult for it to interact with or compromise other applications running in other containers or on the host system. So if I'm running a bookwyrm instance and a mastodon instance in separate containers, and there's a security flaw in bookwyrm that someone exploits, that doesn't mean they automatically get access to the mastodon stuff too.

@syl @poVoq the Monk and Robot series is fantastic. Also recommend A Half-Built Garden and The Terraformers.

@syl thanks!

@syl https://wiki.futurelab.social/en/TheLibrary is a good place to start :)

@MrMakabar Sorry, I could see how my comment could be read that way. If you want to make a sticky post here that's great! I just wouldn't make that link to substack because that platform is a silo/not federated and has issues with unmoderated racism. I was criticizing substack, not the sticky post idea.

@orvorn @MrMakabar I won't be participating on a site that promotes racism like substack does. I'm also not a huge fan of losing federation and joining an silo.
