  • It’s a script that you put in place of the raw url of a bookmark in your browser. For these ones here you’d make a new bookmark and past in the script there (adjusting the fediverse url for your home community so it can correctly redirect you) and it runs some (usually) javascript that manipulates the page your on in a way to direct you to the asked for location.

    Its a much more lightweight way to do a single thing if that’s all you’re needing and since you can see the code you can also be sure, unlike a chrome plugin, that it’s not doing other weird stuff.







  • Also, if you want to actually learn, I would strongly recommend against using Docker containers for everything. Besides being stuck with what the developers prefer, all the work of installing things is already done.

    I really disagree on this point. You should use docker or podman (preferably Podman) to containerize your applications on your server to keep them ephemeral and separated from the host OS wherever possible. This improves security, makes setups reproducible, and eases backup and restore procedure. If you want to build from source do so with a containerfile/docker file to keep your build environment fresh and clean.
