Nextcloud is a great gateway drug to self hosting. You set it up thinking it's just a file server, but then you add Talk, and Recipes, and News, etc. And a whole new world opens up. But then after a week or two you start noticing all those add-on apps aren't very feature rich. You do a little web searching see if you can do anything, and you see all these other RSS reader apps that are way more featureful. But you think to yourself "I don't know anything about running an RSS reader". But then you think to yourself "it can't be any harder than setting up nextcloud". And before you know it you have a full arr stack feeding jellyfin. I've seen it 1,000 times. ...well, maybe more like 100 times — okay, it was one time. It was me, alright, that's how I started my homelab. You got me.

Interesting that the Empire tries to enforce an international law that it itself refuses to sign on to: UNCLOS

Neither Iran or the United States have ratified, so it’s absolutely stupid to say that what was ratified by other countries somehow applies to either of them.

european tech sovereignty means only european governments can spy on you not americans.

@PurpCat @CapitalB @coolboymew I gained a little more respect for them because they have been dunking on Drew DeVault lately.

@coolboymew There must be some tech news site out there that doesn't cover that crap. It would be a great place to learn about the few companies who still make dumb appliances and stuff like that.

@noyoushutthefuckupdad @coolboymew I think Odysee is going to allow you to watch YouTube videos soon, in addition to all the videos on the LBRY blockchain.

If Poast didn't have double standards they would have no standards at all.

@cjd @pepsi_man Won't stop the crybabies who complain that they have to install a second chat application that might not be what they are used to.

Seriously, I've seen this reaction when communities still insist on using IRC, XMPP, Matrix, forums, web chats, etc.

Looks like Texas wants Discord to have mandatory age verification on all communities, not just the NSFW ones.

Too many loli hell threads. Fedi is not prepared for the REAL discussions: what cool game should I play next and why.

the phones killed videogames and started gamergate to cover their tracks

@Hephaestic Understandable. I'm mostly talking about the grifters and their followers. I feel like so many people gave up their dreams, thinking that they are going to fight a greater cause instead, only to get themselves surrounded by feds, doxed, or worse.

I don't know why Mark is hosting this anniversary meetup. Who is going to show up? Most of the e-celebs have long since checked out and even the followers have long since moved on as well. This is just going to end up being right-wing Dashcon.
