Something new for SF on the fediverse

Something new for SF on the fediverse - Lemmy.World

I’m realizing this community is mostly maintained by two users. Posts seem to be generated by our mod (thank you!) and what I assume is a bot for SF related news stories. How did y’all get here on Lemmy? Do you still use the SF subreddit? In my experience, that subreddit has become increasingly right wing, nimby, pro-police reactionary, AI apologist and more. It might just be the perspective I get based on my own political views. Maybe the whole city has moved in that direction. Wha are your thoughts? Can local communities grow on what I call alternate social media? Is SF leaning right or is the media (social and traditional) not reflecting reality?

My partner and I are really struggling. There are so many shitty places in the city… the few good spots go away immediately. I’m wondering if people are offering over asking for rentals…

Alright everyone, thank you so much for your thoughtful recommendations! To sum it up, here’s what I have done:

  • I used let’s encrypt’s Certbot to get my SSL certs and setup https, auto-renew every 3 months and I setup a reminder to update Certbot every month.
  • I setup a permanent redirect from http to https in Apache
  • I installed a firewall on the Pi, only 80, 443 and [22 from my computer to the RPi] are open. I couldn’t find the firewall settings on my router but I assume they exist since I had to forward 80 and 443 there.
  • installed the following plugins: WordFence and WP Fail2Ban
  • changed the user password on the pi to a better longer one

I think I should be all set, shouldn’t I?

Security blindspots for selfhosted website

Security blindspots for selfhosted website - Lemmy.World

Hello. I’m pretty new here. I just managed to get my Raspberry Pi setup at home to selfhost a simple website that will act as my portfolio for some art I do. I’m using WordPress to make the content of the website, meaning it runs on Apache, MariaDB and MySQL in the background. It’s connected via port 80 since I don’t want to pay for SSL certificates to setup https. There will be no accounts or transactions happening on my website. I don’t have anything to manage my dynamic IP but I’ll figure that out later. I’ve deleted the default Pi user on the RPi. Are there security issues I should address preemptively? I’m worried for instance that I am exposing my home network, making it easier for someone to breach into whatever is connected there. Any tips on making sure my setup is secure?

Well obviously… - Lemmy.World
