I’m thinking of running my own mastodon (single-user) instance, and I want to ask people that have their own instances: how painful is it to bring your followers/following over to the new instance? #askfedi #mastodon #selfhosting

My workplace's IT just sent me an email telling me to disable SSH in a VM I have because "according to best practices, SSH access should not be left open" .

SSH is currently in a non-standard port (as they mandate).

How actually true is that?

#sysadmin #infosec #askfedi
