What non-FOSS software are you using that you wish you could replace?

Jump

  • Firmware in all the consumer devices I want to hack, but don’t want to reverse engineer.

    • Tired of Jeff Bezos controlling your doorbell cam? I made a privacy focused one that's based on an ESP32 with local Home Assistant integration.

  • I’m in the process of trying something like this. The cameras I bought have serial ports and firmware packages that can be reverse engineered. That’s where I’m currently at; just having the knowledge that it’s possible. I haven’t reverse engineered anything before, so if my attempts don’t work my backup plan is to harvest the the raw components and cobble together my own firmware on a different MCU.

    • I like the web app more.

  • I am new to both Lemmy and the fediverse. Today is my second day using Memmy. It feels similar enough to Narwhal, which I was using for Reddit. I have not had any glaring “ooh, I don’t like this at all” moments. Which is a big deal because I’m a user interface engineer. UI stuff bothers me all the damn time.

  • My god, I hadn’t caught up with this channel in awhile. Last I was there they had three videos.

    I just popped my head in and HOLY SHIIIIT

    • If the ideal setup is many medium sized instances rather than a few huge ones, wouldn't that mean users would need to subscribe to duplicate communities in all of those instances?

    Jump

  • I wonder if this level of abstraction will mean a long-term sustainment of the golden days that past social platforms have had in early adopter periods. Specifically I mean platforms that predate Reddit, eg. Twitter, Digg, StumbleUpon, even FB in the pre-genpop days. Prior to that is before my time of early adoption (MySpace, LiveJournal, Friendster), so I have less historical context.
