wow you are getting in quite a nonsensical defensive mood here. I gave my opinion on it and warmaster asked for clarification. If you want to use it go ahead I just pointed out the red flags.
If you think it is hateful that people read the readme of your favorite project you really need to grow up. A readme is not the place for absurd 'promotion' like it's a product sold on TV.
Also it's not FOSS but a selfmade variation on Apache 2. Check the reddit link, even the author claims it is not FOSS.
It is becoming an important threat to you. Managing servers, applications and data is very complex, and the problem is that you cannot do it on your own: how do you know that the server application where you store your family photos has a secure code? it was never audited.
How do they fix this? Do they audit and approve all source code? Do they submit security patches to the apps they have in their repo?
In fact, the recent LastPass leak happened because a LastPass employee had a Plex server that wasn’t updated to the last version and was missing an important security patch!
How do they fix this? Auto updates? Those are going to bite you in the ass extremely hard at some point.
Things like this are completely untrue:
Additionally, because every new self-hosted applications re-implement crucial systems such as authentication from scratch everytime, the large majority of them are very succeptible to being hacked without too much trouble. This is very bad because not only Docker containers are not isolated, but they also run as root by default, which means it can easily be used to offer access to your entire server or even infrastructure.
Most tools currently used to self-host not specifically designed to be secure for your scenario. Entreprise tools such as Traefik, NGinx, etc... Are designed for different use-cases that assume that the code you are running behind them is trustworthy. But who knows what server apps you might be running? On top of that, a lot of reverse-proxies and security tools lock important security features behind 3 to 4 figures business subscriptions that are not realistic for selfhosting.
Then let me tell you this: Cosmos does not solve any of the risks they paint in their vision. You are lulled into a false sense of "security" after they frightened you.
If you have your own self-hosted data, such as a Plex server, or may be your own photo server, you expose your data to being hacked, or your server to being highjacked (even on your local network!).
It is becoming an important threat to you. Managing servers, applications and data is very complex, and the problem is that you cannot do it on your own: how do you know that the server application where you store your family photos has a secure code? it was never audited.
Even a major application such as Plex has been hacked in the past, and the data of its users has been exposed. In fact, the recent LastPass leak happened because a LastPass employee had a Plex server that wasn't updated to the last version and was missing an important security patch!
That is the issue Cosmos Server is trying to solve: by providing a secure and robust way to run your self-hosted applications, you can be sure that your data is safe and that you can access it without having to worry about your security.
Yeah, no, thanks. That sounds 100% like some snake oil salesman trying to sell me nord vpn or some trash because HaCkeRs.
They believe what they want to believe. That's why they demand the highest scrutiny for everything that Israel says but greedily eat up every number that Hamas puts out. The complete fantasy story about the "destroyed" hospital meant nothing to them.
Wait I thought Israel was genociding 18000 children a day and now they are letting them walk away? Hamas won't be happy to see their "nation of martyrs" abandoning their posts just like that.
So you are claiming that repression of protests does not lead to radicalization? So all of the effects observed at G20 in Hamburg, the Arab spring, the civil rights movement in the US, all that didn't happen to you?
A complete nonsense connection you are trying to make here. German gov supposedly prohibiting pro terrorist demonstrations so only those would attend them? While at the same time having to create protected zones where journalists can report on the protests without getting attacked by the "peaceful" activists demanding a caliphate?
We have eyes, you know? And everyone sees what is going on.
Now that's a fun conspiracy theory to completely ignore the kind of people who protest against Israel.
And no one gets "beaten up" by the police at these protests. In fact the police had to establish protected zones for journalists to shield them from the "peace" protestors.
There is no genocide. Egypt closed their border with Gaza and tells the people to fuck off because they are convinced they are terrorists. And Palestines "friends" only give Israel shit because they know Egypt is right.
