I think it is really sad that with the license change vagrant has dropped in everybody's perception. There are many projects no longer caring about vagrant (due to the reduced number of users) and no longer building or publishing vagrant boxes. Alpine is stuck at 3.19, Debian13 download is broken for months, Fedora is stuck at 39. (I never could get the openSUSE publisher working, so I take the blame for that).

I still like the vagrant workflow, having a easy way to create shareable environments. I really like it in combination with Ansible to easily have demo setups or playgrounds.

This far I did not find a replacement. Alternatives are either not as universally usable or are lacking features like the Ansible integration. I'll keep on looking...

imho any system should be designed with security from the ground up. Slapping on additional software afterwards in the hope to increase security also means adding complexity wich always increases not only attack surface but also likelihood of human error.

Today in "Fun with your homelab":

One of my openSUSE MicroOS machines was under heavy load for a week and I could not find out what was wrong. I noticed that SSH logins were no longer possible, the login hung after the "Last login ..." line. Non-interactive logins worked, though.

Today I found out that suddenly this machine requires "ssh -t" or the RequestTTY option to get a working SSH connection. Huh?

All other MicroOS machines are of course unaffected by this (SSH from the same laptop to those machines works without "-t"), otherwise life would not be interesting...

Debugging this and then checking where the high load comes from...

Time for some digital pest control! 🐜🧹

I recently noticed some uninvited guests trying to treat my server like a free SEO buffet. A swarm of bots decided to sign up and "politely" boost my posts — not because they loved my content, but to piggyback on our domain's reputation for their shady SEO gains.

I wasn't aware of this specific "parasitic" method before, but today was the big "clobbering time." All bots have been evicted, and their data is gone. Consider the server officially de-bugged! 🚫🤖

To keep things cozy and human, I’ve switched to manual registration approval. From now on, real humans only — no parasites allowed (see the attached photo for their "portraits" 😂).

To my fellow instance admins: How are you handling these digital ticks? Any favorite blocklists or moderation pro-tips to share?

Gerade im Netz gelesen:
"Was ist der schwerste Teil bei Ihrer Arbeit?"
"Freundlich bleiben bei dummen Leuten."

ICH FÜHL DAS SO HART!
