@linuxxx went from 50k to 70k ++ in few weeks. Amd here am I with 390 after one year on devRant with my rants getting <10 ++ and 0-2 comments.

391 now 😂

@C0D4 owww :3

@linuxxx any advice from the Grandmaster?

@afrometal just keep on ranting 😉

Be yourself or something like that haha

meta rant

@notarealDev

Well you don't count, you're not a real dev.

You probably have lesser problems 🤷☺️

It's not a competition (which is good because you'd lose ;) ).

Seriously though, who cares? The ++ thing is just for fun, I'd still be happy if devrant was without that feature.

@CodeKill speak for yourself, I'm enjoying watching my leaderboard change

www.toprantz.ml

@Hedgepig yeah me too but I'd still be here without that feature. My point being that the group as a whole is more important than the individuals within.

@CodeKill yeah I get your point. Just using the opportunity to shamelessly share my creation ;)

@Hedgepig ahhh ok. You mean the webpage for the top 10 ant? 🐜 ;)

@theNox is da real MVP. Got over 99 notifs coz she ++'ed all my comments xD

@Haxk20 yeah, forgot about that a year ago it was the really beginning.

@afrometal 😏
I'm a she btw

@theNox ooops. Corrected. Forgive me lady.

@afrometal Just rant about daily dev stuffs, funny encounters and so on :)

@haxk20 I'm here from may last year :)

@Hedgepig oh wow that exists!! No https though? :/ :P

@linuxxx no experience setting up https I must admit. Despite being a web dev.

@Hedgepig If you manage it and would like help, please let me know!

participation goes a long way.

@penderis with you and @theNox I went almost up to twice as many ++.

So, guys. How many days until @linuxxx loses the 1st place? (Not suggesting anything or stuff)

@linuxxx I might call on your services. It's just a node.js app that's made using next.js. Looks like I'll want to use nginx?

@Hedgepig when you have domain set up and use nginx or apache, just look at letsencrypt and their certbot. It handles everything for you.

if on a shared host like cpanel would have to manually use zerossl and add the certs every 90 days also check redirects i think. if cpanel is above v64 that is

@Hedgepig Depends on your exact setup!

@afrometal No clue myself, we'll see :)

Lol my setup is Ubuntu with the command

$ node app.js

@Hedgepig Port 80 or? I always run those things (node apps) on a vps and then proxy forward it on my dedicated :) (stripping the SSL at host level)

Yep port 80

Though I'd like to put more on it so would like to use more ports, but I'm just not confident with server stuff

@Hedgepig is node server suitable for production? Shouldn't you use nginx or sth?

@afrometal not much of a choice when one has build it on the node platform

@Hedgepig not really. Nginx is used as reverse proxy server on my newest university group project with node.js front server and golang back server. DigitalOcean has nice tutorials (used them at work to setup apache+python at work on AWS), here is one for node.js and nginx: https://digitalocean.com/community/...

@afrometal ahh I've read about pm2, that looked incredibly useful

@Hedgepig I recommend battle tested servers. The ones comming with server solitions are usually good only for development. Like 'ng serve' with angular or 'manage.py' runserver with django.

Also @dfox how comes devRant still not supports markdown or any other way to write monospaced text?
