What apps have you tried to "de-google" yourself?

  • Wow OK! I didn’t know about Infomaniak kSuite, thank you. Looks great!

    • What do you do for "idle time" on your phone?

    Jump

  • RSS feeds, Gemini and Gopher. Always good stuff there, and feels cosier than social media!

    • Could you suggest alternatives to Radio Free Fedi ?

    • How will the Dead Internet Theory affect society, and what does it mean for the future of social media?

    Jump

  • I think it won’t be abandoned, but we have to find better ways of filtering out AI slop. There are already quite a few search engines with curated networks of personal sites.

    Another option is we switch to a different protocol. But internet style networks are too useful for human communication to abandon, I think.

    • Out of curiosity is there a FOSS (add-free) short form video type social media?

    Jump

  • loops.video is in development, from the same dev who did Pixelfed

    • Why don't more people use Linux? - DHH

    Jump

  • This is the answer! Most people will not ever install a new operating system.

    • How to get rid of the Indian curse?

  • To be honest, I’m Irish and it seems to me colonialism influences a country to cling to their cultural practices more fiercely. Couple that with massive inter-generational trauma. In the case of Ireland, unfortunately that meant we had a brutal theocracy for decades after the British left.

    I think the only reason Ireland is in any way more progressive now is because they let us join the European Union, and they gave us money!

    Anyway I think you sound like a great person and the best of luck. I emigrated myself too, to England ironically…

    • What's Your Favorite IRC Client, and Why?

  • Self hosted ‘The Lounge’ is great.

    • Faircamp setup help

    Jump

  • That’s very weird! So you get the error message when you run faircamp --preview after editing your .eno?

    And is there one .eno in your “Artist Name” folder, and another .eno in each “Release” folder?

    If you’re on Mastodon or similar, I recommend the #faircamp tag, loads of us try to help out on that! There may be someone more familiar with faircamp on Mac & brew who can help…

    If not, you could try making an issue here: https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/faircamp/issues

  • Hm, if it thinks the font is Courier my guess is TextEdit is adding a file extension (like .rtf or something)

    It needs to be just a .eno … maybe it’s like .eno.txt ?

    You might be able to check that from Finder? But if not, you can see exactly what’s in your Faircamp folder (once you have used cd (current directory) to get in there) with this command:

    ls

    which lists everything in your current directory

  • Hello! If you’ve installed it with brew, you have faircamp working (no need for Linux). Are you familiar with Terminal? And how to use “cd” to move around? Is that what you mean by “point it to” your faircamp folder? For example, you would just type “cd /path/to/your/faircamp/folder”

    It doesn’t matter where the faircamp folder is, it will build the site wherever you run the faircamp —preview command. (Sorry my phone isn’t formatting this correctly, there are two hyphens before “preview” 😆)

    • FOSS alternative to Discord?

    Jump

  • Matrix is good but it feels more like a WhatsApp group or something. Definitely room there to have a client that’s more fun, like Discord

  • Only tried issri on CLI Linux… Hexchat on windows I couldn’t eve get to connect lol. What are people using to keep IRC open, so you can look back on chats? Pretty new to it
