Amateurs, I’m an AI artisté and demand big bucks for “my” art pieces. Also fuck everybody who made all the stuff that the AI stole from.

You sound like a frustrated maintainer, have you considered doing what I do with open source projects using discord as their means of communication?

Don’t take it seriously and move on.

Of course. Open source clients on open source operating systems connecting to self-hosted servers on private infrastructure with open source software.

As soon as open source hardware is practically available I’m never using proprietary processors ever again, I don’t care if they’re “underpowered” by computational power - All backdoored CPU’s are underpowered by my standards to verified non-backdoored CPU’s.

Maybe not everything

Laughs in hardcore open source

Open source search engine SearcxNG works very well with Lemmy posts and comments.

as relatively easily and cheaply

You pay more when using these types of software than if you hired an engineer to set up a complete forum ecosystem. Just not with money.

In the world of today the crustyness of dolan and spooderman is more relevant than ever!

Par Avion. I’ll do homing pigeons before using discord.

Well said.

That small M Audio interface doesn’t look to shabby for the price, even seems to come with phantom power (power over ethernet but for instrument).

You’d have to be crazy not to be paranoid these days.

IME 40-60% per cycle, even when connecting to an empty, self-hosted relay. Quite literally a killer feature.

Tasks.org and JTX Board are two of the most used, available on F-Droid.

Yeah, and doesn’t support (coming soon apparently) mobile extensions so no feature parity. But what stopped me from using Joplin for tasks was the unreliable alarm.

Joplin is pretty good as a lot of other stuff though.

I have a Pi4 running a mastodon branch, the “dreaded capacity hog” synapse and much more. Never had any issues with capacity. I know people who set up Pi’s as CDN relief servers for PeerTube video transfers.

I suppose people have different experiences.

1. Not that I know of, but most likely. If you’re new to hosting, maybe look for automated tools that does the heavy lifting for you - Like how Lemmy can be installed by copying and pasting a single command.

2. Beyond power/internet, you can host for free. Subdomains can be free, I assume you have the hardware and pay for power and internet anyways.

Auto-saving is the insurance against manually saving failing, which is the insurance against the computer or program failing.

It’s insurances all the way down, yet I’m still let down when versioning overwrites my changes.

There goes my hope of Google being named after gabagool.

Never heard anything like that, and tried to do a quick search on the web for negative/unprofessional reviews, third party flagging etc. and found nothing. My experience with Posteo so far is very positive, which includes the “professionality” of both their technical system and their customer support.

If anybody know otherwise, please let me know.

I think it’s clearly available on several other activity pub platforms, last time I checked one could see individuals voting when subscribing to Lemmy communities from Friendica.

It’s still against the spirit of Lemmy to post it publicly on here…

That’s gotta be some kind of legal voodoo ritual to summon the devil or something.
