[Enhancement / Installation] ** Possible enhancement to installation script - Add fail2ban, Secure SSH, etc and Promote IPFS Nodes for podcasters
I came across Castopod thanks to a recent post by the Podfather himself Adam Curry @adam@podcastindex.social on Mastodon, took a look at things and decided to sign up to possibly contribute to enhancing the Castopod installation process, provide documentation to system admins (particularly those with novice to intermediate experience with Ubuntu Server/Debian,) etc.
On a related note, I believe independent podcasters would benefit from learning about IPFS and promoting it on their respective show(s) in an effort to offset the realities of storage/bandwidth costs on an ongoing basis.
Note: I'm not affiliated with IPFSPodcasting.com but did contribute code and detailed documentation on enhancing the IPFSPodcasting RunNode installation/setup process.
Initial Contribution thread that details what the scope of the submission was:
IPFSPodcasting/PodcastNode-Python Contribution Main Thread
IPFSPodcasting/PodcastNode-Python Thread of a user contribution and subsequent discussion:
Link to latest file with script and detailed documentation for consideration
To dev(s): Perhaps this should be tagged as Enhancement and Documentation?
Thank you.
