  • Is it even legal to try and validate a gender?

  • bsky-social-yfjde-fanxw first one gets it

  • Made by Mozilla Corporation, an US company. Just saying.

  • Again, I’m talking about the server part here, and there is a lot preventing a server to be both a web and a mail server.

  • You understand that web servers (listening on a web server port) and mail servers (listening on one or more mail server ports, possibly on the same computer) are entirely different technologies?

  • JMAP sounds interesting indeed, but as far as I understand, there is an underwhelming number of clients that speak it?

  • A website is the response a web server sends on a web port to a web browser. SMTP on port 80/443 won’t work well, but please try.

  • If you try it, report back. ;-) My current setup is mostly OpenSMTPD & Dovecot, but I'm open for good reasons to move away.

  • Websites do not have the functionality to connect to mail servers. These are different protocols.

    For mail server infrastructure, Stalwart is said to be pretty good. I haven't had a chance to try it yet.

  • My RSS reader (Newsblur) lets me do that too, to some extent.

    • Stopped using reddit, went here instead.
    • Intensified my Mastodon usage, winding down my Twitter activity.
    • Started using my own mail server for more than just a few tests.
    • Changed search engines a few times (I'll probably stick with Kagi now).
    • Reduced my subscriptions and cleaned up my RSS feeds.
    • Stopped doomscrolling (I subscribed to a weekly paper newspaper instead).
    • Started using Ulysses for writing. Works very well.
  • Good. Vapers look like clowns with a flute.

  • I know, but most people won’t. :-)

  • One of the reasons might be that the number of SVN hosting facilities has decreased over the past two decades.

  • I know, but most people are lazy these days (and self-hosting stuff in the EU has become a legal battle against every week's new rules).

  • Oh, come on. It wasn't that bad! At least it granted (and still grants) the freedom of choosing which VCS shall make your day harder than necessary.

  • I never leave my VPN, so that's the easier way anyway.
