Are there any of other communities on the fediverse with active film discussions? I loved /r/movies official film discussion threads but can’t find their alternatives here (kbin.social)

Which film have you seen the greatest number of times? (kbin.social)

I've definitely seen The Prestige (2006) the most in my adult life, it was my taste-barometer when showing a new friend or date when I was in my 20s.

But we had the The Mummy (1999) recorded from TV on a VHS growing up and I recked that shit. I probably watched that film 30-40 times, between childhood days off sick and rewatching intermitently in adulthood.

Honourable mention to Love Actually; thanks mum.

The Reddit Protest Is Finally Over. Reddit Won. by nevernevermore in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 93 points 11 months ago

the conversation should never be about reddit losing, it's about the users winning. And I personally feel like I won. I showed my support for Christian and 3rd party apps, I abondoned ship quickly and I've found a new home on the fediverse.

I also stopped using facebook and instagram 18 months ago. They both still exist, but I won. I'm happier now without it. Job done.

This might not be an answer but my worked also requested us come in 2 days a week. So I ride my bike in around 11am and back home about 1pm. WFH the rest of the hours. I’m all about malicious compliance.

How’s everyone else’s first month on the fediverse going?

CHROME (google) is planing to implement DRM (kinda) into their browser by nevernevermore in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 106 points 11 months ago

helped with formatting:

Chrome -> Firefox

Drive -> sync or Dropbox or any number of options

Sheets and productivity tools > libre office or Apache open office

YouTube -> Invidious or even better, odysse

Google search -> duck duck go, SearXNG, StartPage, etc

Gmail -> not a ton of great options. I’d probably recommend proton mail but the FOSS email world is definitely lacking, or gets blocked or goes down, harder to self host etc.

And I agree for sure. In order I use firefox (and brave sometimes), Proton Drive, Apple Productivity suite (pages, numbers etc), and either startpage or qwant, and proton mail. I do still use use YouTube Premium, but the point is Google doesn't need to have its fingers in every aspect of my digital life.

Do you like a tactile click? Are you a sucker for screws? Or something you can put in any direction? Maybe it's yours or another country's power plugs?

This is sounding more sexual than I intended I think

Shot in the dark; has anybody had any success with ProtonVPN and haugene/transmission-openvpn? (kbin.social)

I'm trying to find a fediverse community that might be able to help. I have a haugene/transmission-openvpn docker container on my Synology NAS with my PIA VPN account details and it works perfectly.

I've recently just purchase 2 years of Proton Unlimited and am trying to compose a new project container with my Proton VPN account, but I can't get it to launch at all.

I've been searching the github repo for advice but everything suggested hasn't worked for me.

Anybody happen to have the same config as this and have any advice? Happy to pastebin my docker-compose.yml etc if it helps.

EDIT: Okay well I checked my logs and found I had AUTH_FAILED.... turns out I wasn't using my OpenVPN / IKEv2 credentials... yikes

joining the fediverse to bitch about reddit is the same as going on a date, and spending the whole night talking about your ex by nevernevermore in c/[email protected]

I'm seeing a lot of chat about the migration of "reddit brand" concepts like AMA and IAmA. We should probably come up with alternatives? Who's got some suggestions? (kbin.social)

Whaf do you think of hosting an AMA with John Oliver to make Lemmy/kbin officially a viable Reddit replacement? by nevernevermore in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 37 points 1 year ago

Let's start small. Can we do a Christian Selig AMA first? I think that would be a decent flagship that might draw the attention of the press. That way we have something proven before we start getting in people who have PR teams...

Now that you've used Lemmy and /kbin which do you prefer and why? by nevernevermore in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 35 points 1 year ago

The "home button" being hidden behind the hamburger menu and the fact that I can't collapse comment threads are my only 2 QoL issues, otherwise it all works great for a product that's only like 6 weeks old lol

There's just a polish to this site that Lemmy instances don't have
