Sorry, haven't checked GNU Social for two days, because I rebooted my system after over a month and a half (because opening LibreWolf used like, 14 GB of memory, including all of my swap, and somehow it fucked things up to the point that it broke my networking and I couldn't connect to the internet) and didn't reopen it until now. I really don't know about that, networking is something that I know very little about in general, I just set up internet and SSH and some other things and that's basically all I know, just the things that I wanted to do myself and could.
Also, I have never done web server stuff because I'm paranoid, because I know I'm an idiot and don't know shit about security, and I fully expect to make a catastrophic mistake. Really, I'd only do it on a system that isn't connected to the internet at all. Or a remote server that isn't in my home network, but I don't have that. Actually, I should do it on a computer I don't care about, and test it that way and make sure it's fine. I'll put that in my notes so I don't forget. There's a Common Lisp web server I've been meaning to try for a while, and I guess that's the best way for me to do it. I have been needing one for a while, to move some browser functionality to, because browsers are horrible.
I have a boomer level knowledge of network security. Any network that is connected to the internet is not safe, that's the only thing that I can trust because I know I don't know enough. Hell, I don't even enable SSH on my main systems. Also, I only have the router that I use to connect to the internet, that's all the networking hardware I have, and the rest of my setup is a giant mess, so, that's a limitation too.
