No, the red flag is being ‘self-hostable’, but trying to concentrate all your users in a central, non-federated, monetised instance.
Also, we cannot verify how long they where in development because they squashed their git commits. There’s usually no good reason to do that.
I host two homeserver, one on synapse and one on continuwuity, both pretty small (tens of users), but with users in lots of large rooms. The second one was significantly easier to set up, and uses a lot less resources.
Also, element and element X work, but aren’t great. It depends on the user, of course, but I don’t think you get people by giving them the ‘dumbed down’ version.
Isn’t fluxer partially LLM-coded according to the dev?
Out sound like you are outsourcing comment-writing to an LLM.
If you need to keep windows around, you can also do what I do for my VMs. Download Win11 Enterprise IoT LTSC from massgrave.dev. Doesn’t have Bing search in the search bar, just local, no Co-pilot, no bullshit.
I’d prefer not having to use it at all, but some software just doesn’t play nice with wine yet.
Yup, typo. It is lit, though.
I have deployed LiveKit for my homeserver yesterday. I’m not gonna lie, it does involve a bit of work, but once it’s running it is very seamless.
I had a brother laser printer with a pre-heating roll that went bad. Sourcing a replacement for that was pretty annoying. But I get your point.
Curiosity Stream is fine if you are looking for a service that let’s you pay to stream nature docs. The rest, I’d probably avoid. Some of the because they suck, others because there are better alternatives.
Edit: Commented thrice due to app issues.
Yeah, I usually approach this stuff from the standpoint of someone who is already actively self-hosting. For people stuck in Google/MS, it is certainly better.
Vaultwarden is free. Bitwarden is free. Bitwarden Premium is 10€/year.
For what it offers, Proton is pretty expensive. They are also making inter-operation with other services difficult or impossible.
There’s much worse, but they aren’t that great either.
Meh, I actively use it. I get why it might be unintuitive to someone newly switching.
… I actually like being able to copy a website and middle clicking to open it. I don’t think it’s a problem, it just needs to be telegraphed to the user better, and togleable.
You just have to Flash coreboot, I have three chromebooks deployed with family, one with mint and two with Endeavour. Even Touch and audio drivers work for those specific models (Acer Santa and Asus Babytiger).
What annoys me with Tuta is that they make PGP encryption very difficult (they don’t implement it at all, you have to use external solutions, which is made more difficult because you can’t use external clients).
They argue it is less secure than their solution where they send non Tuta users a link and you give them a password. I argue that PGP is something people would use, while their solution isn’t.
Proton does implement it, but I also have my gripes with Proton. Both of them feel like they want to build a walled garden / avoid being inter-operable.
I seem to remember that steam depends on the official nvidia drivers, so that might still be fumbly if you use their platform.
At some point, your SSD will fail. If you’re lucky, that is quite a while away. If you’re unlucky, that’s tomorrow. If your data is truly critical, at least copy it to a second drive, even if you don’t do a proper/full 3-2-1 backup.
Also, if you’re asking whether you can move data from one drive from an old file system to a new file system that replaces the old one on the same drive without copying data to a different drive - no.
If I’m not mistaken, illustrator is vector based, krita is pixel based. So drawing-wise, krita is closer to Photoshop than illustrator.
Sure, Graphene OS tries it’s best to limit Apps, but if you don’t trust an App, you just shouldn’t run it, no matter the OS.
Didn’t Vivaldi? I don’t really use them cause I mostly avoid non-FOSS software, but I seem to remember them announcing they’d be keeping support.
