  • I was using Nextcloud with OnlyOffice for a while, but since then, this is the setup:

    • YouTube --> Invidious/Odysee/PeerTube
    • Authenticator --> Stratum
    • Google Passwords --> Vaultwarden
    • Gmail/Calendar/Tasks --> Privateemail (through domain host)
    • Google Drive --> Syncthing/SFTPGo (webdav implementation handles phone backups, too)
    • Play Store --> Aurora and F-Droid
    • Google Search --> SearXNG
    • Google Home --> HomeAssistant
    • Google Photos --> Immich
    • Google Books --> Kavita
    • Android Messages --> KDE Connect
    • Google Maps --> Organic Maps or Magic Earth
    • Google Meet --> Element
    • Google Pay --> PayPal
    • Google Voice --> Session
    • YouTube Music --> gonic









  • I hope you make playlists for those things. Not a bad idea to chase the blues away.

    Have you considered cooking or baking as a way to minimize harm when it comes to food? They can be exercises in mindfulness, ways you can show appreciation for others, or ways to bring people together.

    I tend to dive into computer stuff like self hosting or tweaking my desktop. It feels good to get a project up and running, or at least have something to fix.




  • I feel like giving AI our information on a regular basis is just training AI to do our jobs.

    I’m a teacher and we’re constantly encouraged to use Copilot for creating questions, feedback, writing samples, etc.

    You can use AI to grade papers. That sure as shit shouldn’t happen.
