  • The margins on the gamedev industry are not that large, you should read some testimonies from veterans. It's a ruthless industry.

    Games take years to make, and you can't change engines now if your game is about to come out.

    It's probably hard to walk away from something they dedicated so much of their life to. More so if it involved sacrificing time for relationships, family, friends, etc.

  • Sorry for the delay in the reply.

    No need to apologize! Thank you for working on this. :)

    The only issue is that the app requires that the config file and blocklist and allowlists should be included within the docker hub. So the issue is that if a prebuilt image is provided, then is it possible to edit it within the docker container ?? If so then it is ok, otherwise it would still be good, but it would limit the usage to users who are by default satisfied by the default config. While others would still need to build the image manually, which is not very great.

    I'm not familiar with the websurfix codebase, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

    I'm currently self-hosting SearXNG on a VPS, but I started by having it just locally. The important bit of that blog post is this:

     
        
docker run -d --rm \
              -d -p 8080:8080 \
              -v "${HOME}/searxng:/etc/searxng" \
              -e "BASE_URL=http://localhost:8080/" \
              searxng/searxng

    I use the -v flag to mount a directory in my home to the config directory inside the docker container. SearXNG then writes the default config files there, and I can just edit them normally on ~/searxng/.

    By using a mounted volume like this, the configs are persistent, so I can restart the docker container without losing them.

  • Ah cool, thanks!

    Will definitely try it now. It's good to have options (Searx just recently became unmaintained).

    Are there any plans to have an official docker hub image? I'm asking because my workflow involves keeping the containers up to date with watchtower.

  • How do YOU create your Docker images?

  • Genuinely curious, what would the advantages be?

    Also, what if the Linux distro does not have systemd?

  • Yes.

    All my self hosted containers are bound to some volume (since they require reading settings or databases).

    Jump

  • True.

    But I assume OP was already running docker from that user, so they are comfortable with those permissions.

    Maybe should have made it clearer. Added to my other post. Thanks!

  • Interesting, I'll be keeping an eye on this. Thanks for sharing!

    I'm currently self hosting SearXNG. The must-have features for me are the custom filters and the actively maintained docker image. Will definitely give it a go if they get implemented.

  • For the littering part, just type crontab -e and add the following line:

     
        
@daily docker system prune -a -f

  • I see you already have an answer using podman.

    But don't be afraid of the command line. If you can copy/paste a few commands, it's pretty easy to set up.

    I honestly find installing docker harder than to start a locally hosted searxng instance.

    Also, something like self-hosting your own email is way harder and requires a lot more maintenance. I'd leave that project to further down the line.

  • The EFF has supported the prosecution of Kiwi Farms, but not by using ISP blocks.

    They understand that setting a legal precedent like this may cause serious harm to other people in the future (e.g. women).

    Once an ISP indicates it’s willing to police content by blocking traffic, more pressure from other quarters will follow, and they won’t all share your views or values. For example, an ISP, under pressure from the attorney general of a state that bans abortions, might decide to interfere with traffic to a site that raises money to help people get abortions, or provides information about self-managed abortions. Having set a precedent in one context, it is very difficult for an ISP to deny it in another, especially when even considering the request takes skill and nuance. We all know how lousy big user-facing platforms like Facebook are at content moderation—and that’s with significant resources. Tier 1 ISPs don’t have the ability or the incentive to build content evaluation teams that are even as effective as those of the giant platforms who know far more about their end users and yet still engage in harmful censorship.

  • I have written nothing implying that, no.

    From the very first reply, you implied that the argument that the EFF made was wrong, and that this precedent could not be used to block women's access to abortion: "It’s incredibly easy for an ISP to point out that they’re not going to block a network for a different reason by pointing out it’s… not the same reason. Banning abortion information is not the same thing as banning a harassment network that’s causing deaths."

    I’ve said the EFF’s argument is bullshit because the US government cannot enforce the laws the EFF says could be used. Not that they don’t exist, but that this is an international network that heavily uses anonymity. The US government likely cannot at all, and if it can can only do expensively and slowly, too slowly to prevent deaths, ban this website.

    If that's the case, how did they get Ross Ulbricht? He ran a darkweb marketplace, in theory, harder to pin down than something on the clearnet like Kiwi Farms.

    The same precedent that bans Kiwi Farms at the ISP level, could be used to block women's access to safe abortion, causing deaths as well. And no, I'm not gonna take your word for it that it can be avoided in court in the future. You're just some rando on the internet with no legal expertise, unlike the EFF.

    I'm all in favor in prosecuting people responsible for peoples' deaths and shutting down that website, but not by using something that could cause harm to others in the future.
