I hope it is going to be ok. Automattic has been involved with matrix before. Time will tell, but I’m more hopeful than afraid.
4·8 months agoYou’re sure you’re talking about OnlyOffice, and not OpenOffice. OpenOffice and LibreOffice are related. OnlyOffice is not.
I tried to compare some backup solutions a while back: https://hedgedoc.ptman.name/kket4uo9RLiJRnOhkCzvWw#
64·9 months agoForget about docker. Run caddy or some similar webserver that is a single file next to the assets to serve.
How full is your ZFS? ZFS doesn’t handle disk filling and fragmentation well.
2·1 year agoI would also welcome decent micropayments (maybe digieuro?), so that you wouldn’t need to subscribe, but could pay 0.045€ for something without it being unfeasible because of fixed transaction costs.
Linux is quite lightweight. Pick a distro that doesn’t run a lot of stuff by default. OpenBSD only runs sshd exposed to the network, AFAIR. Debian probably does the same. But really, the lightness comes from what isn’t running. NixOS, fedora, rocky, alpine are all decent alternatives.
I can only approve of people paying for services they use. It isn’t free to run. But there are several things to consider:
- $1/year is very low, transaction fees for accepting that amount of money are high
- It’s a low price for successful bots
- Doesn’t remove ads (take money from subscribers or advertisers, not both, also print media)
- Doesn’t give you better control over your experience. The paying customer should be the one being listened to
- This is Elon Musk’s twitter we’re talking about, how long until he changes his mind again?
Another surge on mastodon? Countries, cities, public organisations should put up their own mastodon like EU, BBC and Germany have.
Riot games forced them to change the name.

8·1 year ago- Matrix is viable. There are https://view.matrix.org and soon https://archive.matrix.org/ for indexing by crawlers
- https://servers.joinmatrix.org/ isn’t quite the same as https://discord.com/servers. Joinmatrix lists matrix home servers, like gmail, hotmail, yahoo, … for email. But once you have an account on a home server, you can use the “explore” feature to browse rooms known to that server (or another that has public room directory). There is not central place to list all, since there is not single central matrix server. Same with lemmy. You need to use https://lemmyverse.net/communities
cryptpad si quite good

Gandi is no longer a good choice
