A number of brand new accounts have popped up shilling their paid for applications.

Is this within the rules? Is the community happy with this? Could mods clarify this in the rules?

Either allowing advertising, or banning it entirely.

    It’s not trolling at all. You stated you got into self hosting because you wanted opensource and you want to retain all of your data. I’m asking you to share your homelab set up. A lot of people would be genuinely interested. The point being, all the gnashing of teeth is a duplicitous argument. If you truly do as you stated, then I’m wondering how you search a global internet from your homelab that indexes it all.

      Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. You’re sealioning this guy about his self-hosting setup and implying that we must freely accept all closed source and closed data in all areas simply because the “search” you seem to have rhetorically fixated on doesn’t have a fully independent open source implementation?

      That’s a disingenuous argument, and you’re absolutely trolling. With all due respect: shut the fuck up.
