Totally! When you see someone else's phone or laptop and you're like "ew!"
Does anyone know how Valve rate on privacy? Do they aggressively data mine and sell it in the surveillance economy?
That is an entirely valid point - and exactly why I wrote that blog post. To help people to explain to those around them that they also need to do something about their privacy. Otherwise they're giving you away by association.
Come to think of it, I probably should have mentioned that in the post 🤦🏼♂️
Good points.
Similar to the other reply - I haven't moved to a privacy OS on Android yet because of money.
My fancy Samsung is not supported by those OSs (yet).
oh wow the salute was from *above *the heart.... which, for me, rules out the 'from the heart' defence.
Which was always bullshit, but you know..... better to be able to debunk it properly.
Does anyone know if it's possible to run VR games on Linux? I'd love t ditch Windows for the gaming pc....
ah damn, I didn't know that.... I really like those dropdowns as they shrink the article a bit. ok will have to consider not using them.
FYI when you get the blog by email they are expanded by default.
Have you tried viewing it in an RSS reader? (Ghost blogs you just append with /rss)
yeah i'm here. You mean without the ?tracker part to the URL...?
It's a Ghost blog and that gets added automatically - I'd rather it wasn't there but I don't know how to stop that, sorry.
Showing that they blocked right wing stuff in the past, and now align with the right wing, demonstrates that big tech doesn't care about sides - they just want money and power.
My non-profit the Rebel Tech Alliance is working on a series of blog posts that will look at self hosting for begginners. If you sign up for the blog you'll get them when they're published:

But really what I've got going (if you exclude Transmission) is the simplest stuff. Jellyfin, Calibre and Syncthing are just 'click and install' - they are all self contained so they don't need all that Docker stuff. I suggest just tinkering with them.
Also running Calibre, Syncthing, Transmission and Filen. all on Linux Mint.
I can't cope with TUI-only OS's - the command stuff makes no sense to me at all. I've learned some of it, and am trying to get Nextcloud running in Docker behind Nginx Proxy Manager, but I can't work out DDNS yet so.... 😂
I was keen on Proxmox or Yunohost, but put off by the fact that they totally replace the OS. I'd be more comfortable with something that runs on the OS, like Docker does.
This is excellent! Good work!
