New blog post: Setting up Forgejo on Alpine with Nginx and Fail2ban
#Forgejo is an awesome code hosting platform. It is a community-driven hard fork of Gitea, that is being developed over at #Codeberg. In this article, I will provide a complete guide for setting up a self-hosted Forgejo instance on an #AlpineLinux system, behind an nginx reverse proxy with TLS. Additionally, I will explain how to secure the instance against brute-force login attempts, using Fail2ban.

#SpicyPillows have been replaced! Battery life has drastically improved on the #AlpineLinux #Macbook Pro 15.
A veces me preguntan por qué me gusta Linux… Además de todo lo filosófico y tal, me encanta lo mucho que me entretiene. Esta tarde he montado mis imágenes cloud de @alpinelinux para @proxmox.
Me parece que, poco a poco, voy aprendiendo más sobre esta estupenda distribución: minimalista y segura. He decidido hacerle una pequeña aportación a través de @opencollective a ver si entre todos ayudamos a mantener los gastos. Colaborar, en lo que se pueda y como se pueda.

I submitted a merge request to #AlpineLinux aports to get #TouchpadEmulator added. This program allows touchscreen devices to control a mouse cursor for easier use with desktop-oriented user interfaces. Merge request here:
https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/merge_requests/82061
Testers on #postmarketOS welcome, you can test with:
sudo mrtest add -a 82061
also add yourself to input group to avoid the password prompt. You can also set it to autostart with LaunchTouchpadEmulator.sh --autostart
I kind of wish there was a version of Alpine that was libc based - just for desktop NVIDIA support really.

Heads up, icu-76 has been pushed to edge. The builders will be busy for a while rebuilding all dependencies, and there appear to be some build failures.
The community repository is broken at the moment until the builders finish rebuilding affected packages and upload it.
Build status can be tracked at https://build.alpinelinux.org/
@GrapheneOS just made the transition from #iOS to #grapheneos and it was as easy as it could be.
BTW: the web installer runs perfectly on my #alpinelinux based laptop
Awesome work guys
@itsfoss Depends on the device age and specs. Probably #Fedora on new, decent systems and #AlpineLinux on older, weak systems. In my tests, Gnome usually takes only around 1.1 GB on it!!!

This is great because now (F)OSS and non-American solutions are being brought to the table and it shows how much Europe has. And these alternatives or those of us who have been using it for years are the norm and Big Tech is the alternatives but the developers are getting noticed and that's great. That's also one of the good things about this situation

Mi máquina virtual estándar sobre @proxmox es definitivamente @alpinelinux
Imagen virtual: x86_64
Configuración minimalista:
#OpenSSH en puerto alternativo:
port 8765
AllowUsers user1
PermitRootLogin no
Usuario con permisos doas:
/etc/doas.conf → permit persist alpine as root
Cortafuegos:
#UFW con reglas estrictas
Control de accesos:
#Fail2Ban notificando por #ntfy cada ban
Todo en 138 MB, súper eficiente y sin paquetes innecesarios.
if i were to get the muvm and FEX stack to work on my laptop that'd be great! because then i Could emulate x86_64 and even non-musl x86_64 AND windows
but yeah, thats a bigger ask for me
I think it's about time I ditched Arch Linux for Gentoo. Arch has gotten easier and I've gotten bored with it. Once I've settled to Gentoo, I'd have Void Linux scratch my "Arch Linux" itch
I mean, I've already explored Linux distros with different inits. I don't think anything can stop me when I have Arch, Gentoo, and Artix wiki handy
there's a shocking lack of documentation referring to `RUSTFLAGS="-C target-feature=-crt-static"`
@bram Interesting! Since I am a minimalist myself I have always used #ArchLinux in the past. Seriously considering to try #AlpineLinux now
