My way of rebelling against techbros and autocrats:
December 2024: quit all Big Tech platforms and start #selfhosting essential services
December 2025: write guides for newbies about how to self-host
I'm also in discussion with a blogger I admire to start a podcast about tech... where we'll focus on solutions (instead of problems)... aiming to inspire others to join in...
It's been a really heavy year but these little acts of rebellion give me hope ✨
@_elena its so fun switching off these mega-corp platforms and apps. you realize you don't actually need most of them at all.

@_elena My way of rebelling: Teach compsci whilst painting a positive vision for computing, to show how narrow-minded these powerful fools are!
And yes, I would check out your podcast.

@_elena still no simple FTP server that doesn't require 287302723 different config files with 0xDEADBEEF command line options.
Honestly if a ftp server is more complicated than `ftpserver $HOME --write --read` then it is a failed one.

@_elena As a busy dad, i dont have the time to set things up any more, and self hosting is seldom plug and play... I set up Home Assistant on a raspi, but it took time. More plug and play self hosting pls! 🙂 And i dont want to have 100 raspberry pis running things neither, so some sort of virtualization would be nice also.
@gnomulf maintenance on YunoHost is SUPER EASY... I used a basic VPS with little RAM and had 2 microblogging, a photo sharing and other apps running smoothly... so I highly recommend YunoHost

Great idea 🙌🏻 !
I think a podcast could reach even more ppl, who rather listen to podcasts than reading longer blogs. Maybe even with guests sometimes 🤷🏻?
With your projects you’re not just giving yourself hope, but also others 😊 🚀
@EloPup thank you and yes! we're planning to have guests :)

@_elena You warrior! And yes, they give me hope too 🙂
@sylvia awww thank you Sylvia ❤️

Pondering: Home Assistant Green, vs building my own HA setup on a Pi or Homelab VM... 🤔

@nixCraft is gui to ai the modern passage from terminal to gui?
It isn't inevitable, but will it be anyway?
It is certainly possible to use a browser without ai
Is there a (narrow) path were it is possible to use ai anyway and choosing not to use it? (considering market, investments needed, corporate/business world)
I have no answers, and not much hope

There are too many cows. There need to be fewer cows. The number of cows is too damn high. The level of cow must decrease. The cow line go up but must go down. There is a supercritical mass of cow. Only falling cow numbers is compatible with a livable future (and present.) There is an excess of cows. There needs to be a correction in the number of cows. We must bend the cow curve downwards. There must be a decumulation of cows, a de-escalation, a degrowth of cows.
(Obvoiously i don't care about anglers arguing for their share of the exploitation but the health of Aotearoa's waterways is vital for a robust ecosystem.)
