Lmao beautiful. Yeah, I know someone people are just flat inconsiderate and that’s fine. It’s more for me anyways to assume they aren’t an intentional asshole. I do think everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt, but I’m aware that excuses some assholes that shouldn’t be as well. I’m at a point in life where I’d rather let a few of them pass than accuse someone whose intentions weren’t malicious. Honestly though… I still mutter “asshole” to myself regardless of who they are lol, I just try to mentally check in on why they might not be.
DDOS against a little self hosted instance isn’t really a concern I’d have. I’d be more concerned with the scraping of private information, ransomware, password compromises, things of that nature. If you keep your edge devices on the latest security patches and you are cognizant on what you are exposing and how, you’ll be fine.
