I hope more young people begin to realize it. Unfortunately I see a lot unwilling to or that just don't care. It makes me sad at what the internet could be but I can understand why the youth would see it this way. Ruling class hegemony has done an exceptional job at funneling people towards closed platforms with monetary ideals under the guise of being user-friendly/modern/fun.

I think this has been a major hurdle that Matrix still hasn't passed yet.
Despite it being a federated protocol, the initial, still "default", and most feature-complete server is synapse
. It's however very heavy and honestly kind of a hassle to set up when it should be easy to spin up.
conduit
is doing a great job at being very resource-light and easy to deploy, and it's something that the Matrix ecosystem sorely needs. When p2p Matrix is a thing that'll be entirely different, but until then I have high hopes for conduit
(dendrite
looks promising but from my tests has had weird spikes in resource usage and other issues, despite being older than conduit
.)
Absolutely brutal
About Hurd
In short: just say NO TO DRUGS, and maybe you won't end up like the Hurd people.
Touch screens will just never be as productive as dedicated input peripherals. It's similar to text editing in vim vs a GUI: point-and-click menu navigating and limited keyboard shortcuts bound to Ctrl will not be as productive as being entirely keyboard driven
Fluffychat is guilty of that. Instead of saving to ~/Download
or ~/Pictures
, they go straight to ~/Android/Media/im.fluffychat
(don't remember the exact nested dir name). And that means any recently downloaded images won't appear as "recent" in other apps to choose.
No joke, I've been nicknamed "The Wizard" for doing some side contractor work for a workplace my friend works at.
All I do is incredibly simple data automation (like <50 LOC) in python and fast data entry (hours vs days). It's an easy dozen hours of $ per month.
here's a list of public searx & SearXNG instances
If anyone has good experiences with any of them, definitely share!
Wow, radicle has a lot more progress on it compared to when I last saw it like 2 years ago! I'll have to check it out.
I've also recently discovered stagit and I think it's even lighter than cgit. It's pretty much just static pages that have to be regenerated with every new commit, but it's super easy to set up.
