  • ldap is a central authority server. when you have ldap supported software, you can alliviate authorization to a central server. and if you make it so that you only need username for credentials (uid=%s,dc=example,dc=com in ldap jargon), you centralize your user database.

    that’s what i use on my home server. it takes most of the user registration hassle away.

    edit: by the way dc=example,dc=com is just an arbitrary value, you don’t have to have certbot certification for that or anything.



  • the other day i asked my coworkers that “doesn’t that bother you that some of your apps are always listening to you?” they said “i’m not saying anything illegal and when i see a product that i was talking about, it’s almost like a reminder, otherwise i would forget all abou it”.

    i gave up.
