Servers with lots of users always eventually have problems where the interests of the users are not the same as the interests of the server administrator.

It's something which people often don't like to admit because they get fixated upon bigger and bigger numbers, but it definitely seems to be true. * Avoid big public servers It may seem like a good idea and it may seem like you're doing a service to the community by allowing random strangers to register, but servers with thousands of users only cause problems - social, administrative, financial and possibly also legal. The financial strain of running a powerful server with high reliability may be enough to encourage the administrator to begin pushing advertising onto the system, or sell user content, and then before you know it you have identical problems to Twitter. Instead try to encourage people to set up their own servers.

-The political definition of a federation is "a union of partially self-governing states or regions under a central (federal) government". The fediverse isn't exactly like that, in that there is no federal government. However there are protocols which govern the communication between instances and that might be analogized to being a sort of elemantary constitution or mutual agreement binding all participants together. The protocols are merely ways of moving data around though, and don't impose any sort of moral code. +The political definition of a federation is "a union of partially self-governing states or regions under a central (federal) government".

Keep the number of users on each server small

+

The importance of this can't be overstated. Servers with lots of users always eventually have problems where the interests of the users are not the same as the interests of the server administrator. If you are the server administrator, or if there are only a small squad-size group of people on the server, then it's a lot easier to resolve differences and everyone's interests are likely to be similar.

Drama will happen

+

It's inevitable in any social network, but fortunately your options for dealing with it are better than they are in the giant proprietary monoliths. In the proprietary world Google or Facebook don't give a damn about the fate of individual users. On a server with a small number of users if you're getting griefed then the administrator is likely to care and be able to do something about it.

Don't be afraid to block

-
+
+

Don't be afraid to block

+

Especially if other servers are publishing content which may not be legal in your jurisdiction then don't be afraid to use domain or user blocking from the Administrator control panel. The same applies if users on other servers are trying to harass you. Blocking creates politics and drama but this is a feature not a bug. It allows you to craft your own distinct community and user experience while also existing in the wider federation. It's hard to do this on sites like Twitter or Facebook. Try to keep blocking to a minimum though and avoid doing it for insubstantial reasons. If you have other users on your server then publish the blocked domains list somewhere they can see. That avoids disappointment and enables you to have a discussion about the validity of blocking decisions.

Over time follows and blocking rules come to match the underlying social geography of affinity groups. Blocking will happen and users will move around or start new servers. Drama related to blocking will dissipate.

-Keep the number of other users you're following and who are also active to under a couple of hundred. Any more than that and you'll just be overwhelmed by irrelevant stuff and whatever community you may have been part of will dissolve in a sea of entropy. There are no algorithmic timelines, and even if they're introduced then they create their own problems as an opaque form of censorship. Real community happens at tribal scale. It's something which people often don't like to admit because they get fixated upon bigger and bigger numbers, but it definitely seems to be true. +Keep the number of other frequently active users you're following to under a couple of hundred.

+Once there are more than a couple of hundred highly active users in your timeline then you'll just be overwhelmed by irrelevant stuff and whatever community you may have been part of will be drowned in the entropy.

Avoid big public servers

+

It may seem like a good idea and it may seem like you're doing a service to the community by allowing random strangers to register, but servers with thousands of users only cause problems - social, administrative, financial and possibly also legal. The financial strain of running a powerful server with high reliability may be enough to encourage the administrator to begin pushing advertising onto the system, or sell user content, and then before you know it you have identical problems to Twitter. Instead try to encourage people to set up their own servers. Follow this principle and a lot of arguments and stress will be more easily avoided.

Authentication with keys

+
+

+It's a lot more secure to log in to the Freedombone system using ssh keys rather than with a password. You can set that up by first running: +

+ +
+ +
freedombone-client
+
+
+ +

+On your local system (i.e. whatever you're logging in to the Freedombone system from, typically a laptop). Then: +

+ +
+ssh myusername@freedombone.local -p 2222
+
+ +

+Select Administrator controls and re-enter your password, then Manage Users and Change user ssh public key. Copy and paste the ssh public keys which appeared after the freedombone-client command was run. Then go to Security settings and select Allow ssh login with passwords followed by no. +

+ +

+You'll need to make sure that you have a copy of the ~/.ssh directory on your local system. You could just copy that directory to a USB drive and then keep that somewhere safe so that you can restore the keys if you need to. +

+
+
+
+

Administrating the system via an onion address (Tor)

+
+

+You can also access your system via the Tor system using an onion address. To find out what the onion address for ssh access is you can do the following: +

+ +
+ +
ssh username@freedombone.local -p 2222
+
+
+ +

+Select Administrator controls then select "About this system" and look for the onion address for ssh. You can then close the terminal and open another, then do the following on your local system: +

+ +
+ +
freedombone-client
+
+
+ +

+This will set up your ssh environment to be able to handle onion addresses. Then you can test ssh with: +

+ +
+ +
ssh username@address.onion -p 2222
+
+
+ +

+Subsequently even if dynamic DNS isn't working you may still be able to administer your system. Using the onion address also gives you some degree of protection against corporate or government metadata analysis, since it becomes more difficult to passively detect which systems are communicating. +

Even though this system makes it easy to set up an email server, running your own email system is still not easy and this is mainly due to the huge amount of collatoral damage caused by spammers over a long period of time, which in turn is due to the inherent insecurity of email protocols which enabled spam to become a big problem.

Port 465 is used for SMTP and this is supposedly deprecated for secure email. However, using TLS from the start of the communications seems far more secure than starting off with insecure communications and then trying to upgrade it with a command to begin TLS, as happens with STARTTLS. There are possible attacks against STARTTLS in which the command to begin secure communications is removed or overwritten which could then result in email being transferred in plain text over the internet and be readable by third parties.

A point about GPG on Android

-
+
+

Android apps

+

-Before trying to set up email on Android you may want to consider whether you really need to do this. Android (and its variants) is not a particularly secure operating system and whether or not you wish to store GPG keys on it depends on your threat model and in what situations you'll be using your device. -

- -

-If you are going to use email on an Android device then ensure that you have full encryption enabled via the security settings, so that if you subsequently lose it, or if it gets stolen, the chances of encryption keys being exposed are minimised. +Mobile devices have a reputation for being quite insecure, so it's recommended that you don't store emails or GPG keys on your phone. Instead install Mailpile and access your email via the webmail interface.

-
-

Compiling the development version

-
-

-To get K9 working with Freedombone you'll need to install development versions of OpenKeychain and K9. At the time of writing the versions available in F-Droid do not support PGP/MIME or the "hidden recipient" feature of GPG. It is hoped that at some stage the patches will be integrated into the mainline or functionally equivalent changes made. Admittedly, this is not at all user friendly, but currently it's the only way to read Freedombone email on Android systems. -

Using I2P for email transport

+

-If you want to set up a public mailing list then when installing the system remember to set the PUBLIC_MAILING_LIST variable within freedombone.cfg to the name of your list. The name should have no spaces in it. Public mailing lists are unencrypted so anyone will be able to read the contents, including non subscribers. +For the most paranoid use cases it is also possible to use I2P as an email transport mechanism. This will of course require the people you're communicating with to have a similar setup in place. For details see the bdsmail app. An advantage of this is that it's very unlikely that your email will get blocked. The disadvantage is that few others will be capable of receiving email this way, and it's only really usable via the Mutt email client.

- -

-To subscribe to your list send a cleartext email to: -

- -
-
mymailinglistname+subscribe@domainname
-
-
- -

-Tip: When using the Mutt email client if you want to send an email in cleartext then press p (for PGP) on the sending screen and select clear. Unsecure email is treated as being the exception rather than the default. -
