@kirby yeah it makes sense, they want safe defaults for average person on a VPS, i'm sure there's a technical way to do that, just wasn't a clear option in the install / build scrips to not use ssl, and, not familiar with erland a all .. it's nice to test out something on a local network, i mean it's just http right? i could host it over tor or i2p. and of course would use a reverse proxy to do that. I'm used to nginx handling all the ssl stuff, but i can see why having it built in is a good idea.
I am going to have to slap together a minimal php activitypub thingy when i get my yarvles
@scrum the pleroma internal webserver only listens on loopback iirc you MUST configure a reverse proxy or it will not work correctly also a dev setup lets you use over http on lan
@lamp@scrum the defualt setting is to listen on loopback i double dog dare you to try going to the port from a different computer with no reverse proxy set up on the pleroma machine you will see it simply refuses to respond
