Sorry, I commented then went to Europe for 3 weeks; Browsing detox.

Symmetric NAT wouldn't be an issue for Nebula at all -- or WireGuard, as you know, but neither ZeroTier.

If you're worried about CGNAT, it has several ways to deal with it:

The lighthouse can also act as a bastion/proxy and handle the connections for you, if your two nodes can't speak directly.

That being said.... if you're supporting other users, I think wireguard is the way to go.

I've been using Nebula for a long time. It's great and definitely worth your time to setup.

I'd say they're comparable and have similar problems experienced in different ways.

On mastodon, a big name becomes the stress on the server. It's like people showing up to a small coffee shop to hear a politician speak about something. If the politician becomes more renowned / popular, eventually they have rallies. Eventually those rallies are broadcasted and licestreamed... All that means more infra and more $

Lemmy has the problem of communities. Communities sometimes gather in small places like a person's house or a bar. If that community grows large, maybe they need to have a conference / convention (like an anime or tech community). That means the instance that hosts that community has to has a conference sized instance, to host all the lads/lasses/etc of the fediverse.

More eyeballs / more discussion = more demand. Simple as that.

edit: I will add that there is one difference. You might have your own little small fragmented community, here on sh.itjust ... like for skateboards. More intimate discussion, etc. This would potentially prevent c/skateboards on an instance from growing too large....

But there is only one @gargron that most people will follow.

I am also following a specific community here on RSS. Nice to go through my articles and see someone asking for technical help / advice -- or simply sharing something cool.

This, and their other CC books, is a great starting place. Especially because it has a hands-on section you can build upon:

Maybe take a larger forest view of convergence & orchestration of a provides core.. from access to fabric.

Other than that, lots is being said about the true meaning of network source of truth. Check some NANOG talks for free on their YouTube channel. Check out Jeremy Stretch's fairly recent blog post on Netbox (packetlife.net).

If you're looking for more greybeard Inspiration, check out some great analysis from Geoff Huston on potaroo.net and think of interesting software defined ways to demonstrate his analysis (maybe become the next Kentik etc.)

Russ White & Ivan Pepnelnjak are also great grey beard thinkers.

Best of luck with your thesis.

Pretty good suggestions here. Can't remember the last time I saw such quality replies on r/networking .

Ah, maybe it was just slow to load and I rushed to delete it. Either way, I'm glad I did....

Good idea on the throwaway. It's time to rip off the band-aid.

Wow.. I just uninstalled Boost after midnight. Looks like it will be back soon :)

It stopped working for me after midnight and they put a banner explaining it in the bottom right. RIP to many good commutes browsing random info in my various subreddits.

Ou!! thanks for this.

Hoping either one gets a good discount because I have a lot of train rides coming up.

Thanks! I'll save this tip for the chilly months.
