Hello! I was looking for a mastodon instance for #security topics and people.
I'm a computer security student and I enjoy play ctf and wargames with friends.

Hey #devops / #sysadmin fedi, I know there must be hundreds of these but I'm having trouble finding them:

Anyone know a simple log visualizer where if my app logs metrics out in a certain format I can just scp down the log file and see pretty graphs about what's happening? I don't wanna go full APM or run an ingest server or use a SaaS or anything....just want the option to see spikes if I'm looking into something.

I have no idea why this is hard to find. This has to be super common.

Internet is a place where:

People sharing corporation's "property" is compared to attacking ships (piracy)

Corporations sharing between them user's data is "respecting their privacy" and "improving their services"

🤦🏻‍♂️

I think I've found a laptop to take with me to Starbucks when it's safe again
