I have Nextcloud running on my home server, hooked up to a 2tb drive. It’s kind of a pain the ass to have to maintain, but less of a pain in the ass than relying on Google.

Same, where it’s available.
On my phone it’s Waterfox, on my iPad, Firefox. And have FF sync active on all of them.
I love Librewolf and wish it was also on Android.

1·10 days agoThis comment led me to investigating copyparty for myself. It looks good.
Do you know if you can specify existing folders?
My boss is apparently unaware of this.
Having to be in it.
Does he have a licence for that amount of long‽‽

14·13 days agoI’ve been pondering doing this to a broken iMac I’ve got.
It got donated to me by someone who needed to thin out his studio a bit, so it didn’t cost me a penny. But I took the screen off to give it a clean out and repaste, apparently didn’t tape it in place securely enough as a temporary measure, so the screen fell off. And smashed.
I did some swearing.
However, it’s still a surprisingly handy spec. 3.5ghz i5, 24gb RAM and a Radeon GPU. So I’ve been wondering about pulling the guts and turning it into a desktop, then making it my home server to replace the 2014 Mac mini I currently use.
ponderings intensify
This isn’t helping my desire to pick up a Surface for Linux-noodling…
Ironically, I used a terminal to install LibreWolf on my Macbook.
He has the cold, dead eyes of a shark.

17·16 days agoThis is my growing experience of using GrapheneOS.
Mostly everything works just fine. But certain apps don’t, because they’ve made a choice to use Play store integrity. And there are more and more of them, including the UK government ID app. So I can’t use my phone to verify my identity because I use a version of Android that’s more secure than Google’s.
And yeah, I can see it going this way with Linux. If you can’t be verified using macOS, Windows, or ChromeOS (or whatever the new thing is) tools, then you become a second class digital citizen.
Every dress I wear is a fat dress.








True. But I got to a point where I was comfortable having a go at it myself, so saved myself some money by using a hard drive I already had available.
