Who tf codes in nano?

You can do that, but Simplex has a limit on the amount of users in a group due to encryption. There is no point in using an e2ee messenger for public announcements

TL;DR: The Ladybird browser, which was written from scratch and aims to be an alternative to corporate-backed browser, now has a non-profit organisation behind it. Also, it got additional funding of 1 million dollars. The end.

Have you ever heard of this cool niche kernel? How was it called?.. Uhh, I think it was Lunix. Or was it Linux? Yeah, Linux!

!linux@lemmy.ml

Its userbase is pretty small, I bet nobody heard of it on such a tiny platform as the Threadiverse

Just had this idea pop up in my mind. Instead of relying on volunteers mirroring package repositories all around the world, why not utilise BitTorrent protocol to move at the very least some some load unto the users and thus increase download speeds as well as decrease latency?

TL;DR

A decently big casino, as you could guess from the article, was getting away with Cloudflare's Business Plan (250$/month, which even the author in the post agrees was a "fairly low price", likely downplaying it).

The Cloudflare team reached out to them to let them know their usage does not fit into the tier anymore and they need to pay the custom price of an Enterprise plan, which may, or may not have been fair since the author does not provide any relevant data, because they were cut off from the stats since they had their account terminated.

The casino refused and indicated they are at talks with Fastly, which was a stupid thing to tell to the CF team, because on their end it was looking like "yeah, we're going to keep freeloading until we move to another company", so they decided to terminate the casino's account.

The story taught the author not to rely on proprietary services. I hope it might also teach them not to rely on any service if they are getting away with a price that is way too cheap for the resources they consume.

Discord but good. Good luck to the devs, I sincerely hope this doesn't get abandoned.

Does it have to be developed further? Neofetch looks like a finished product.

[-] moreeni@lemm.ee 132 points 4 months ago

Imagine wanting to see if you can help with the development, but seeing that the development is coordinated on fucking Discord.

Delete all data from the previous account and make a new one. Report the troll to moderators. Consider never visiting that place again if the mods won't help you with the harassment.

If the troll doesn't have access to the forum's server, then all you have to do is learn some opsec and be aware of what you share with strangers on the Internet.

If the troll does have access to the server and you absolutely need to visit the forum (which I'd advise not to in such a case), then in addition to what has been said above, use VPN with a hardened browser or Tor to access the forum.

Damn, that's unironically a pretty clever name for a Masto instance

VSCodium is better than most text editors. BTW, if you didn't know, you can still install some (turns out not all of them will work so you might still need the proprietary build from MS) extensions from Microsoft's store manually.

ShareX is the best software I have ever found for taking screenshots and/or quick gifs/videos. It's a real shame it doesn't have a GNU/Linux version, it's the only app I miss badly from my Windows days. Any other screenshot software is just nothing in comparison with it.

Joplin is my fav note-taking app. I have tried a lot of them but this one just works, has quite a big feature set, can synchronise using different mediums, from Dropbox to using Syncthing and synchronising files locally, doesn't look poorly, is cross-platform, has e2ee, doesn't cockblock you with paywalls. For me it's the perfect note-taking app.

Aegis is the best 2FA app for Android there is atm. IIRC, it got created because Google Auth had some problems with privacy so the whole idea of Aegis is to be the better option.

Lichess — a chess server with no BS and there are 0 paywalls. chess.com would force you to pay for stupid things like puzzles, with Lichess I am able to procrastinate with chess. For free.

NewPipe is the best YouTube client there is. For me, it's because of fast-forward on silence and the ability to unhook pitch and video speed. That means you don't have to either waste your time on literal nothing or struggle to understand what a person is saying anymore. NewPipe also gives you everything YouTube Premium does.

If someone had any doubts about federation with Threads, they shouldn't by now. Facebook is trying to turn Fediverse into Shittyverse and Fedizens should resist that

[-] moreeni@lemm.ee 112 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It's the Fediverse that I have been searching for.

Somebody on Lemmy made this quote I really like:

Twitter is people you care about posting content you don't care about. Reddit is people you don't care about posting content that you do care about

Twitter-like Fedi never clicked for me. I made a bunch of accounts over the course of two, maybe three years, each starting with the intention of maybe making new friends and having a good time. I met a ton of cool people but we never became good friends because I never got really invested into it, simply because my feed was never something I hoped it would be, something exciting.

Lemmy gives me exactly what I was searching for. I didn't use it prior to thr Reddit migration because there were too few people but now I am very happy
