does author know about the Deckard thing that Valve is supposedly working on?
from what I understand, it will be some kind of Steam Machine with focus on In-Home Streaming.

doesn’t Steam Hardware Survey report way higher percentage of Linux users?

(Statista, Blackdown)

wouldn’t Valve’s numbers be more reliable?

Funny how people tend to quote Linus Torvalds on technical issues in order to prove a point. I hear the guy barely made it through college.

Actually, I lied about even that. I was thrown out of fourth grade because I couldn’t write my own name, and it’s been all downhill from there. I had to lie about getting into college just so that I’d have better chances of making a career here at McDonalds - if you have a college degree (or you lied about having one), they don’t make you scrape the burger pans.

heh, he had good sense of humour already back in 1999

there is a bridge, but some parts of the fediverse got very mad about it

I just have a HedgeDoc presentation and a subdomain on some public FreeDNS domain:

Other comments already pointed to some very good software solutions.
But I would argue that absolutely the biggest barrier to entry for the masses is hardware.
Restoring an old PC or making some cable spaghetti with some SBC is currently too advanced for average person.
Self-hosting for the masses would require some new form of home servers.
Something modular, where adding new components would be as easy as playing with Lego bricks.

OH REALLY?

heh, good one

Does Organic Maps support it?

Is this the “agile” development methodology that I heard so much about?

Problem is that the whole concept of advertising is “telling other people what to do”.

• People use Google.
• Google tells people to use Chrome
• Chrome becomes most popular browser
• Chrome removes the " this site has RSS" icon from URL bar
• People forget that RSS is a thing
• People now rely on Google News and other biased sites to get information
• biased sites tell people what to do

RSS is freedom
go tell other people to use it
also Lemmy RSS community

Your post is missing the most important information that you wanted to share

Something like Cryptpad Form?

GotHub seems to display basic GitHub stuff decently well.
https://gh.whateveritworks.org/

I wonder how angry will the maintainers be in 2036:

aaaa, why do we have to support this ancient release, why did we promise 12 years of support

Listen, strange penguins biting people is no basis for a system of government.

so this is similar to LibRedirect?
https://github.com/libredirect/browser_extension
https://libredirect.github.io/
check out this list of privacy frontends and see if you can implement any of them in Predirect

Also, I see that you only handle one instance for redirect. Either the default instance or custom instance.
Consider implementing multiple instances. Here is list of instances that LibRedirect uses:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/libredirect/instances/main/data.json
Here is a list of instances that Farside.link uses:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/benbusby/farside/master/services-full.json

Both LibRedirect and Farside still have to deal with the rate-limiting problem with Youtube and Reddit and I assume other sites as well. Invidious instance or Teddit instance can be rate-limited, resulting in video not playing or post not showing up.
If your extension does not distribute user traffic across multiple instances, then I assume that your chosen instances will get hammered into ratelimit even faster than other instances.
So consider thinking about solution for this.
One of suggestions that I like is to allow user to provide an URL to a list of instances.
That way, someone or some automated system can periodically compose a list of instances and users can “subscribe” to that list.

Also some useful links:

Is there any collection of such inspirational / wisdom quotes?
If not, then one should be started.
And this quote should be added to it.

I expected the classic “be the change that you wabt to see in the world”, but despite being similar, this one is very good as well.

sup dawg, head you like announcements, so we announced our announcement in our latest announcement

ZP ran for a very long time. At this point I am not even mad that it ends.
someone go check what are some longest running web series and where does ZP stand on that list

so this is something similar to https://celestiaproject.space/ but made with Godot engine?
sounds cool. Now we just need to convert it into a space-themed game.

as the article points out, they did actually do some good things
also, check out VSCodium. A cleaned up version of VSCode (I assume that name was inspired by Chromium, a cleaned up version of Google Chrome)

truly we live in a bizarre world

Wikipedia is usually a good place for descriptions and definitions
Check out this article about Lemmy and feel free to make improvements to it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemmy_(social_network)

a cover of U2 - Elevation called Federation someone come up with the lyrics and proper instrumental cover so that we don’t trip copyright

I am aware of those two, but those are just for file storage. I was thinking something more general. Like having a Virtual Private Server, that people can extend with their donated resources. VPS can be used for more than just file storage. It can do processing as well.

You could have system monitor open in order to check what happens with Firefox process when the browser freezes.
See if you can find a reproducible way to freeze the browser. That way you can start to narrow down the cause of the issue. You could stay on the older version of Firefox and only update once the next version is released.

reminds me of that joke from Futurama

Zapp:

You, ensign, whats your name?

Hugh Man sir!

Zapp:

Now that’s a name you can trust.

You made all young men shape their hair in your image.

I was that age in 2006 and that style was strange to me back then as well

gotta fail fast

we really want the TikTok audience

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/this-meme-is-from-the-future

this is just one of the instances
there are many more instances according to https://farside.link/ (which is a thing that will automatically redirect you to one of them: https://farside.link/teddit/ ) so by using this, you help reduce the load on individual instance, resulting in less “too many requests” errors for everyone.

this meme was the inspiration for the name of the self-hosting project YUNOhost https://yunohost.org/

lol
but this does bring up a real concern:
I highly doubt that “desktop PCs” will still be a thing in 7 decades.
the desktop/laptop will most likely get replaced by something else
and if modern PCs have some roadblocks for installing any OS you want (SecureBoot, and soon Microsoft Pluton), then imagine how much harder it will be on the next iteration of personal devices.
Well, “will be”. Already is. On phones. Most phones require serious wizardry or make it basically impossible to install other OS on them.
And as far as I see, phones will be the thing that takes place of PCs.

so yes, I would not mind if the FOSS community abandons the whole Year Of The Linux Desktop™ meme right now and instead starts to focus on ensuring that the upcoming platform will allow us to have the freedom. Let Microsoft enjoy the dominance on PC. Maybe challenge them every now and then. But the primary focus of FOSS community should be the preemptive liberation of the platform that will follow PC.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

you think they know?
you think that Instagram users have any idea about what they are getting into?
most of them probably don’t even know that Instangram is owned by Meta / Facebook, despite the small logo.
