days just fly by but on a larger timescale nothing is moving

@haskal so the pixie.town matrix server is hosted at my home, which is nice and all, but for media both uploading and downloading has to go through my rather limited VDSL bandwidth. Currently I have caching on the vps nginx proxy which helps a bit but only after a request has finished, so when a media link gets accessed the first few times they still all pull from my home simultaneously.
My media proxy will run on the vps and get all media requests proxied to it instead of Synapse, allowing it to handle both upload and download in an in-memory cache + filesystem cache on the fast network machine, while still forwarding requests to Synapse as well so the media proxy could be removed and redirected back to Synapse and still have all the media

ok lol my synapse-media-proxy project in progress is apparently the new code thing I brainstorm about in bed and under the shower

@haskal it's a B-keyed M.2 using just USB2.0, which the pinebook doesn't support in their M-keyed M.2 providing just pcie2.0
iirc from last time there are some usb hub slots left unconnected internally

@thufie if mastodon cared about privacy they could absolutely have a feature for your own instance to generate an *authenticated* rss feed of what would otherwise show up on your timeline...
