Are you living under a rock?

same for me

Thanks. I really wish I was able to get an invite or two, but no chance.

Of all the places I found that RED has a thread in the forum exactly for this. I'll check it and if there's a link for pragmata I'll dm you.

LE: all old links are dead, but I asked for a new link. Maybe someone can help.

I don't work for Proton, but I don't think you looked for the required info: you can set up OpenVPN or wireguard without using NetworkManager or the ProtonVPN application:

https://protonvpn.com/support/linux-openvpn/

https://protonvpn.com/support/wireguard-manual-linux/

But all other criticisms stand. I'm using Protonmail at the moment and I hate that they don't have native integration of contacts/calendar for Android. I think I'll move out next year, when my subscription expires.

Didn't apple use to delete your local music and replace it with whatever remastered re-re-release bullshit? Even if they don't do it anymore, it was shitty in their part and I wouldn't trust them anymore. Also, their app on Android doesn't support casting to other devices... At least it didn't work as it should when I last tried.

Heh! True!

It's been a long time they stopped pretending.. at least 5 years.

You know that git is also Linus' project, right?

I'm counting the days until Porsche joins the Google graveyard...

Ron Amadeo never covered Apple products afaik and sometimes he can be annoying and concentrating on little things, but most of the time he's very good and objective.

Fuck discord.

And this is a surprise for whom?

I thought that you only were ignorant, but no, you're more than that!

OK.. challenge accepted. Maybe you don't know about systemd user services.

Content of mytrojan.sh:

    
#!/usr/bin/env bash

echo "Writing the service unit file"

cat > ~/.config/systemd/user/my_test_service.service << EOF
[Unit]
Description=Script Daemon For Test User Services

[Service]
Type=simple
User=
#Group=
ExecStart=/home/user/bin/myscript.sh
Restart=on-failure
StandardOutput=file:%h/log_file

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
EOF

echo "Reloading systemd for the user"
systemctl --user daemon-reload || exit 1

echo "Enabling and starting the service"
systemctl --user enable --now my_test_service.service

  

Content of myscript.sh:

    
$ cat ~/bin/myscript.sh
#!/usr/bin/env bash

while true
do
    now=$(date)
    me=$(whoami)
    echo "User $me at $now"
    sleep 10
done

  

Now run the script (mytrojan.sh) and check service status after that:

    
$ ./mytrojan.sh
Writing the service unit file
Reloading systemd for the user
Enabling and starting the service
$ systemctl --user status my_test_service.service

I ran it on my home server just to play with it. It's very nice, but the main problem is with adoption. I'm a metalhead and I attend a lot of concerts in my city and asked friends if they'd be interested in having this kind of server and ditch facebook and they ALL said no, "because it's not convenient" :-(

I was shocked to see that there are no English-language Mobilizon servers.

Well, Mobilizon is made by a French open source collective (Framasoft), so it's very popular in France, but also in Germany and other european countries.

Huh? Any script can create a service, enable it and then start it. What would make you think the brave package (or just the application itself) can't do this?

1Gbps, no rate limit to download/upload, 8 euro/month

Louis says somewhere in a comment on the presentation video that they won't have (at least for the time being) an iOS app because Apple wouldn't allow it in the Store, so there's that.

it's on their site when you click download .. or go to the bottom of the page.
