No judgement on what you’re doing online. In your case, don’t download untrusted files, stream where you can. For all users, whether on the black seas or not, you should as a matter of habit use uBlock Origin in your browser, turn on the filterlists for security, ads, annoyances in particular.

Looks interesting, bookmarking to try this out.

Is it fair to say Webmesh is your open source version of Nord VPN’s Meshnet? https://meshnet.nordvpn.com/

https://www.collaboraoffice.com/nextcloud/ sounds like what you’re looking for. I’ve not tried it myself as I actually like the Google docs/sheets etc offering.

Go Daddy. The name alone is just plain creepy.

“Id like an email client with folders or categories.”

I tried a few other email clients to see if I could ditch the gmail one (years ago, admittedly), and where those clients fell short for me was they didn’t support labels, only folders. Multiple labels can apply to one email, but an email can only belong in one folder.

Does anyone know if things have changed, whether third party clients now support gmail labels?

Perplexity.ai has largely replaced Google and Bing for me. It searches the Internet (including reddit), asks for clarification if necessary, then summarises it all with sources cited. The free tier currently gives 5x gpt4 copilot searches per rolling 4 hours. Like most ai chat, it’s less of a search engine, and more an ‘answer’ engine.

As for q and a, reddit, though you’ll have to filter the funny / misleading comments out. Quora is just weird, I don’t like the vibe there.

The ability of my Google Home gadgets to correctly understand speech drops sharply whenever there’s a promo on them - I imagine the influx of new speech patterns from new users tanks the recognition/parsing systems at Google.

Yep, same problem here, my swipes aren’t perfectly straight because, well, I’ve got a thumb joint. Fisher-Price grid view takes up too much space. Mozilla need to account for the overall direction of the swipe.

My Samsung has the option to save as HEIF. When I want to share that photo, my phone shares the HEIF file which isn’t commonly supported.

An iPhone also saves as HEIF - however, it automatically converts to jpeg when you share. Much smarter, more seamless.

Is that a unique address at the same domain, or even the domains are unique?

Randomised user names

Password manager

Randomised words for any website that asks for memorable info (mother’s maiden name, first pet’s name, etc) for security. Always gets a laugh from customer services.

False birth date.

I imagine that there are far fewer people who use RSS now than there were 10 years ago. The rise of social media and shorter attention spans may have something to do with that. Personally, I’m in the RSS cult, using Tiny Tiny RSS.

As others have commented, Nextcloud provide an all-in-one docker set up. I managed to follow the instructions and get it working.

However, in the end, I wanted this to replace my Dropbox subscription, and my files and reliable access to them are important to me. Given that, and my relatively low skill level, I didn’t want to futz with troubleshooting failed updates and server issues, so I just went with a Hetzner storage share, which is their managed nextcloud subscription: https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share

I had the same problem - this extension saved my RAM: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/auto-tab-discard/

We had just one arsehole, now we have two arseholes.

Abolishing IP is all fun until you decide to be a producer, innovator, or creator. Hope you can pay for your groceries with likes and thumbs ups.

🤣

Isn’t that the point of full disk encryption, to make sure you’re authorised to boot? That at least is the behaviour on a Mac if you enable full disk encryption. Or do you mean every time you wake it from sleep?

I love weawow! Agreed about making a regular donation to the Weawow dev… or it’ll face the curse of other top, rated free apps - the developer has tons of users, dealing with all their support requests, and can’t make a living from it, then rightly sells up to some sh!tty company who then turns the app to shite. Yes, that’s the story of the legendary Quickpic app.
