more rambling re: Long rambling about filesystems. Contains opinions.
@algernon I like breaking things frequently, so grub-btrfs configured to boot pre and post upgrade transaction snapshots has become standard on my personal machines. However maybe the benefits would be more debatable if I used something like NixOS as you will be doing. (I'm too unfamiliar).
That all said, I only switched off LVM and ext4 last year and I am surprised btrfs 'won' the poll. I would have suspected that weariness to adopt new things, fear of btrfs scrub, and superstition would make it fare less in a poll. I mean- storage pools are cool, but there still isn't stable support for certain raid configurations after years. I'm curious what the biggest draw is for the average poller? I hardly make use of many actual btrfs selling-point features aside from the 'free' thin provisioned VM storage allocation, and VM cloning.
my partner who was the primary earner and insurance holder in the house was unexpectedly let go because of downsizing. we are a family of three, with a 9 year old kiddo. i am a part time library worker and i have picked up as many hours as i can but it won't be enough in the long run. we are doing what we can and have reached out to local resources, but in the meantime if you are able to help or share it's greatly appreciated.
my shop has lots of art and goodies and i am also open for commissions 🌻

@thufie Yes. In fact, it already is public, though a bit scattered:
I use ai.robots.txt as one of my sources. Everything in its robots.json is blocked.
I also block some that I collected, the current list is here.
I plan to make a nicer list, with more comments, and easier to pick parts of. But that will take a while.
@algernon will you publish a list of suggested agents to block eventually?
Urgent #crowdfund request! One of my besties is on the verge of eviction. She's a disabled transfemme w/ limited resources. She has until Feb 3rd to get $2k to clear court fees & back rent.

There are a few false positives, which I will need to address. For example, I served garbage to Mastodon instances that have "twitter" in their name. On second thought, though... maybe that is correct. Don't name your mastodon instance after twitter, perhaps.
I have not downloaded the current logs for closer analysis yet, so I don't have per-user agent numbers yet. But I will! Blog post and data dump likely coming tomorrow. Data dump will only contain the bad visitors, with the false positives removed too.

#MutualAidRequest to help a homeless disabled trans couple (with two cats) stay inside another week
Room goal (due Sunday):
$150/$450
Hello fedi. My partner @LukeOrion and I are a homeless disabled trans couple (with two cats) currently living out of an extended stay hotel. We are trying to raise the $450 we need for Sunday to cover another week inside for us and our little family. We both really appreciate the support we receive on here. Especially now it’s crucial to help us survive.
Please boost, thank you!

Programmer and IT girl. Pseudo-vegan for the environment (-avocados +oysters). Very uncomfortable with astrology. Please don't call me "dude", "bro", "man", etc. Radical egalitarian anarchist, hierarchies and hate are incompatible with a free and equal life . For real though, I'm not gonna tell you to vote or post about political spectacle that is outside our control and in-actionable. Aiming to have a similar amount of internal contradictions as my environment like Ashby's Law of Requisite variety. I am probably stoned on some variety and dosage of cannabinoids if I am awake
if you hate stoners just dni. I am also a trans woman so I *checks notes* meme about femininity and feminization sometimes. After dark account at: @thufieplus but read my bio there before sending a follow request even if we are already mutuals here. Oh and just to be clear because I think I see other white people on here trying to fake not being white under a bunch of other text, I'm just a disoriented white girl trying her best.
