  • Our family group used to have a Signal chat until the older people in the family started having issues remembering their pins.

    They were using MMS before, but the depth of privacy needed for them was mostly dinner plans, so when the Signal chat dried up, I didn't really care or push back on it. Whatever. I just told them that they'd get zero depth out of me beyond surface level information unless it was on Signal, but in the end our conversations never went deep enough to matter unless someone couldn't log into Jellyfin, and by that point, they'd ask in person.

  • I don't think simping for online personalities and influencers is particularly healthy, and it's one of the last things I'd defend.

    It ain't about the porn, more the intent to sell porn behind the guise of a reddit comic.

    Kinda like when SrGrafo was making loli art. (don't make me post it)

  • I usually blast my grievances to the greater fediverse. Some passerby may read my woes and wipe a tear.

  • Syncthing.

    Connect any two devices' folders together wirelessly, from anywhere.

    Don't have a server? You don't need one. Every device is an individual node.

    Backup? If you do have a server, offload some of your content and keep on rolling, or set scripts to move files by age.

  • Teepublic or something might be doable.

  • Like if solar is rated for your home you never have to pay electric again.

    That is entirely the point, well, that and not believing in climate change, but it's one of their motivations. Our government is motivated by spite and capital. If you're stuck paying the power company, they're continuing to reap the benefits.

  • Elon: "and I took that personally..."

  • lol, as one does

  • Matrix and Xmpp are good for that sort of thing. Maybe there's a way to export your notes.

  • Fucking over your fellow man would be an argument. I guess you don't need to read to sign a deed.

  • Another landleech proud of fucking over his fellow man. Get Luigi'd.

  • Dear Landleech.

    I've downvoted your post. Kindly sell your properties or kill yourself to benefit the greater good of society.

  • I suggest Matrix/Xmpp over any of it, but good luck getting anyone's lazy friends to register to use anything. Signal and similar messengers have easier onboarding.

  • Unless if comes from an armed and coordinated leftist militia, then it ain't coming. Everyone anywhere near politics is too afraid and cowardly to act.

  • Signal: "I'm right over here, guys! Just click on me, install me, tell your friends. Hellooo!"

  • Maybe Facebook is more your speed. Lemmy might be too challenging for you.

  • You spread the message around the time of the election, you're complicit in getting others to opt out of voting. One of your votes is meaningless. All of your votes could've turned the tide.

    Not deciding is a choice.

    Don't worry, you'll still have to live with the consequences. Congrats!

  • I just don't like the model of it. Quick, jabby posts without much banter, and most of the news here makes it there anywyay.
