Since you asked...

Balance:

a) damage done by another Trump presidency

vs

b) damage done by demonstrating to the ruling class that you'll give them whatever they want so long as you genuinely fear one of the candidates

Tough call. I wish each and every one of you who has a say in this clairvoyance beyond mine.

There's something sad about society losing a such a unique source of knowledge, but hopefully we've collectively learned something about the dangers of trusting proprietary solutions.

Anyone found a reliable way to search across Lemmy instances they can share?

After the changes to their TOS I lost any trust I had in Proton

Pretty sure this is just privacy washing. The real issue here is censorship.

Highly recommend pairing this with David Allen's GTD and Rainer König's excellent course Getting yourself organized with Org-mode

Fairy Creek also received surprisingly little MSM media coverage despite being reportedly Canada's largest civil disobedience campaign in almost 20 years.

While it could be argued that this under-reporting could be attributed to the RCMP's heavy handed treatment of journalists at the site, it doesn't appear that any of the country's well funded MSM joined the court challenge to the RCMP's restricting of media access.

Anyone care to share their thoughts on proper netiquette when posting to a Peertube instance?

Specifically I'd be interested to learn if it's only considered appropriate for those contributing to the network (either by hosting a server or contributing financially) to post or if the uploading of original work is itself is considered a contribution.

Service is fine, but GNU/Linux support needs improvement.

They just changed their TOS to forbid paying customers from seeking any form of judicial remedy, so you can guess the direction they're headed.

Needless to say I won't be renewing.

Thanks so much for hosting this instance.

Sorry for my ignorance, but would you mind clarifying which of your rules lemmygrad violated to get on your blocklist?

  • caused problems under German law
  • caused technical difficulties
  • engaged in hostile activity
  • engaged in malicious activity

Because tchncs understands that without free speech we have no hope of dealing with any of the problems that concern us.

Official statement:

Federation status

social.tchncs.de does not believe in censorship. Federation is a network service and suspension of federation with another server will only be implemented as a last resort where content from another server may cause problems under German law, or in cases of technical difficulties or hostile or malicious activity.

As many others have pointed out Arkenfox is a great way to harden Firefox that saves much of the effort of manually editing about:config

Because I didn't see one already here's a link to an install tutorial for Arkenfox in case it helps anyone to get started.
