I’ve been using RSS feeds for youtube channels for a few years. I don’t visit the site if I can help it, I don’t login, I don’t “like & subscribe”, I don’t see any clickbait thumbnails and most important: I don’t see any ads. Just newsboat & mpv.

I’d go for Alpine Linux in such case.

You may want to check out numen, targeted towards power-users.

Let’s not downvote the poor guy just because we lost him to Apple. The comment is on topic and people are allowed to make different choices/mistakes 😉

The more kooikerhondjes the better! :)

A pinephone with postmarketOS and sxmo

Nice to see you here too, with a brand new instance even!

I’ve been self-hosting e-mail for over 15 years and hope to continue doing so. Although it’s being made increasingly difficult by big tech players. I wrote about it here: https://proycon.anaproy.nl/posts/rant-against-centralising-e-mail/

I’m on Hyprland (wayland compositer, wl-roots based). Prior to the wayland transition I was on dwm. Hyprland offers a dynamic tiling layout just like dwm, which was my main selling point. The dev is very active and hyprland is gaining maturity rapidly (more than alternatives like dwl or river did at the time I checked it out). I also tried i3 and sway, but they don’t quite cut it for me as they don’t do dynamic tiling out of the box.

• Arch Linux on desktop and laptop
• Ubuntu on server, with containers running mostly Alpine Linux
• postmarketOS (Alpine Linux based) on mobile phone (pinephone)

Suggestion: Globe in the center and a circle of lemmings (like from the classical game) holding hands all along the circumference?

This reminds me also of Framasoft.org , who do a similar thing.

• SourceHut as an alternative git foundry, https://sr.ht
• Any HedgeDoc deployment , like https://pad.nixnet.services/
• Any jitsi meet deployment, like https://meet.jit.si/
• KeyOxide for online identity verification (using gpg), https://keyoxide.org/
• PlantUML for drawing all kinds of diagrams based on formal text descriptions (online version: https://www.plantuml.com/plantuml/uml/, but mainly just an offline tool). I’d encourage people not to use online services for everything but simply rely on good tools.
• Freesound.org (https//freesound.org) for sound fragments
  • TrekCore.com for Star Trek sounds ;) https://www.trekcore.com/audio/
• Bookwyrm as a fediverse alternative for sites like goodreads (tracking and reviewing books): https://bookwyrm.social/
• Fotostrips.nl if you’re dutch and like comics

And in general I’d wish more people would use RSS (and more sites would prominently offer it) to aggregate things like news.
