Bermuda here, straight from the tap!
It actually gets collected from rain water on each individual home’s roof. The roofs are lime-washed to kill the really nasty stuff as it runs down in to a holding tank under the house. Some times you get dead critters in there, but nothing larger than a small lizard or bug. They tend to sink to the bottom of the tank, below the outlets.
Most Bermudians swear by a “cup of bleach” thrown down there every couple of years. It’s in to a tank that’s 10,000gal+ at a minimum (mine’s over 40,000), so it’s basically homeopathy at that point - but the lime-wash works!
The only place you’ll want to avoid it in Bermuda is in the City of Hamilton (mains, not great quality), a house with a dirty roof, or in one near the sole power station on the island. This is an on-going fight to get them to adhere to the emissions safety standards they claim to.
White roofs and smoke stack in the picture!
It depends on how secure you want to get with it. You could just host it with any of the hosting providers and have it public - or you could have it behind a vpn on that server
If you were hosting it at home, you’d likely want to restrict access to behind a vpn. No sense advertising your network is any more interesting than it needs to be
There’s been some nasty buggery with avahi instances on containers clashing with host ones in the past
Some programs just don’t like to run without access to parts to your system like /proc /sys and /run.
Rather than bother with crafting bespoke permissions, non-default cgroups and elevated rights for certain containers, I’ve definitely opted for just installing a VM.
It was always a time/functionality choice, and not one I make often - crafting the right solution is always better; but I have done it
Fortunately, they made a mistake at my job.
“Linux? Look, if you can get RemoteApp, full disk encryption and all of our other programs working and never have a ‘sorry, can’t, running linux’ issue, you can do what you like.”
Challenege accepted and completed.
Joke is - xfreerdp is often more stable than the built in stuff. And remote app window snapping works on gnome, but not on windows desktop xD
So, I think I found a way.
Go to your subbed communities or filters (the list of subscribed stuff, next to the home button.
Tap on your instance. Change to ‘about’ It shows trending communities. At the bottom, there’s a ‘See all’ button.
There should be a simpler aay to get to it, but I’ve no idea how to design it, so I can’t offer suggestions
Beyond that, if you just want a list of local post feed, that’s available at the top of the home feed, you can select all, subscribed or local from instances you’ve added to lemmy.
