It's pretty much the same thing as using services that you can't self-host and fork. I won't spend time on any technology that I'm locked into using their app or a login. Is that pompous? I've used various services and technology that are proprietary, and invariably it's bit me in the ass because they have a captive audience.
I will never use a smarthome device that has to have a cloud account or would be bricked without an internet connection, because eventually it will be a brick because the profit incentive says brick it and get the marks to buy another one. That's the point of that comment.
Hay is flammable if you try hard enough. Had a neighbor that caught a tractor on fire next to a stack of 500 bales (large round bales, about 1400# apiece). They all burned and nobody tried to put them out, it was a hellfire.
Hay is normally put up at about 12% moisture. Wet bales catch fire because they rot and spontaneously combust.
Also, as an amateur radio operator, it has a section reserved for amateur hacking that they're just going to take away because someone asked for it. They have a "think of the children" argument they're pandering about, but it's all about line go up, of course.
I think sarcasm is dead.
The mod is a thinskinned little pissbaby with bad takes. Just block it.
Holy cow, what a Bluesky shill account.
What are you asking for? You already know you're using Debian/XFCE/Nheko apparently. Which Matrix server to use?
And let me guess, the public 915Mhz band will get sold to NextNav despite everyone's objections.
The only thing the AIO is missing is #5, and you can probably mount an S3 bucket on the docker host and set the environment variable in the docker-compose.yml accordingly.
I've used NC for a long time now in virtually every configuration available from bare metal to snap to NCP, the AIO is by far the easiest thing I've ever used to set up and maintain Nextcloud. I wouldn't be climbing into bed with a proprietary oriented company instead. They will eventually fuck over the users, count on it.
Biggest Linux podcast in the world, uses NetBEUI. Yah, there's that.
Oh, cmon, just let it slide so they can fuck up spectacularly and maybe decide to hang themselves.

With the shipping they charge, it's almost 50% extra on the cost of the order. In comparison, I shipped US$9500 of solar batteries across the border last month and paid $170 to a reputable broker that actually had to do some work.
What unmitigated scumbags.
