  • Don't remember the exact date now but I believe I learned about Lemmy either slightly before or during the first wave of Twitter/Mastodon migration... I was trying to find Reddit alternatives, and quickly realized that the only option is a thing that is run by Tankies where the most popular posts only gathered fewer than 100 upvotes each

    ... anyway the statement did not age well. I've been lurking on Lemmy for the past year but haven't really registered an account so

  • The elites don't want you to know but "[y]ou may be able to get Invidious working on residential IP addresses (like at home)"

    Following their guide gives a local Invidious client, don't forget to 1) copy their production compose file instead of using the one on git and 2) change "hmac_key"... from my experience setting up cron (crontab -e) to restart the docker container once per day keeps the Invidious docker healthy


    Edit: here are some alternatives for popular Google services. Not in anyway related to the above (smirk

    • Google itself: SearXNG (try searx.be first), one of the easiest services to self-host
    • Gmail/calendar: a lot of people seem to swear by one of Proton Mail, Tutanota or Mailbox.org. Self-hosting is possible but challenging
    • Google Drive: You mean Nextcloud?
    • Google maps: Organic Maps is actually getting pretty good now
    • Google Chrome: at the very least there is Chromium... obviously there is Firefox and Firefox forks (such as Librewolf), as well as other smaller browsers
    • Google Play: F-Droid hosts a lot of FOSS stuff, and there are alternative ways to access Play (such as Aurora Store)
    • Android: a bit more difficult... but there is LineageOS, GrapheneOS, and similar stuff
  • Oh god I also do this... See the comment below, I ran history|cut -d " " -f 5|sort|uniq -c|sort -nr|less on my personal laptop, my third most commonly used command (behind ls and cd) is just typing in nothing...
