  • @chi hello! My guides are specifically about self-hosting with a VPS because an old machine opens up a can of worms for newbies and a VPS is so much easier.

    Sorry I can't be of help but the YunoHost official guides are superb: https://doc.yunohost.org/en/admin/get_started/install_on

  • @Tutanota yes the article was great EXCEPT for the section on social media that included so many travesties:

    "A promising new contender is W, a 100% European platform (but nothing to do with the EU, as conspiracy theorists have claimed)."

    Where do I start?

    1) W Social is a fork of ATProto (aka Bluesky, something that the writer dismissed).

    2) "Conspiracy Theorists"? Well, Euronews was the first to fact check with the European Commission, which denied any involvement.

  • @_elena Hello Elena! I hope you're doing well.

    I'm looking to self host as well but would like to buy a small server that is easy to set up with Yunohost - I can even buy it physically in Paris. Do you have any recommendations or tutorials?

    VPS prices have risen too much because of the RAM price issue worldwide so I want to save costs by putting the server at home. I use it mainly for streaming videos with jellyfin and storing files.

    Have a wonderful day and thank you for your work!

    It doesn't mention search engines at all which I consider one of the most invidious big tech tools - tracking, biasing, advertising …

  • Also I can't but read their URL as

    TCP/IP e-line

    instead of TC Pipeline, but that's probably just me and I don't know if it's intentional.

  • @Tutanota I think it's great that, finally, privacy oriented alternatives are getting the attention they deserve. But this must become a principle to defend on itself, because it took the tech bros political marriage to Trump in order to change minds. When these tech bros were still large donors to the democratic party, privacy and digital rights were widely derided or even frowned upon. So hopefully we learn from this, and start taking a longer term position on our digital rights.

  • By the way, if you happen to be and live in , and you're looking into making my joke above a reality, look into the Trans Continental Pipeline

    https://tcpipeline.org/

    that might help you relocate to a safer state.

    (Sadly, and predictably, they're currently swamped with requests.)

  • When software was fun. I miss the quirky and passionate small software houses and bedroom programmers of the 1980s, who were not yet as glamorous as "studios" or "indies".

    @ryan @tikaro depending on where you live², IKEA duvet cover¹ are an excellent source for fabric that is cheap, easy to work with, often has nice prints, is usually 100% cotton (or at most rayon / lyocell) and is actually usable for things that will get worn (mostly tops, or very lightweight bottoms) and/or used.And speaking of cotton, one think that will make the difference in the way your clothing will look is pressing all seams as you sew them: you don't need a fancy iron, but an iron is necessary. And cotton and other natural fibers (plus rayon) will work with you under the iron, synthetics will work against you, and will cause you lots of suffering.¹ other than the very cheapest ones, that tend to be quite lightweight and transparent, and the fancy ones, that are probably good for everything listed above, but not cheap.² some countries apparently have shops with cheap cotton. I don't live on one of those :D

    Skirt on the waistband! Can't wait for kiddo to try it on so I can check level and make sure it hangs well without the pillow doing weird things It's just 3 straight panels of 60" inch wide fabric. The arrangement of box pleats was faaaar trickier than I had anticipated. Victorian waistbands are surprisingly sloppy by modern standards. The extra fabric is just folded down and hangs inside the skirt, adding bulk for the waist spring. Trooper as always immediately hides under the hoops. He gets super excited when a hoop skirt is set up. Loves dashing in and out.And yes, he will play hide and seek under the skirt while it is being worn.#sewing #HistoricalCostuming #CatsOfMastodon
