OpenBoard. 100% foss. You can find it in F-Droid

if you’re using a desktop, try Firefox with the Ublock origin and SponsorBlock Addons. On Android either try the above or use Re Vanced.

I have an idiotic request. Since I’m not familiar with the subject, could we be directed to a kind of wiki or megathread on how to actually encrypt our communications?

No bubble burst. One cannot know everything. I hate wasting time in things that cannot be done. I’ll try to use smart Tube for YT on my smart TVs. Thanks for your feedback .

I’m trying to setup an ADGUARD Add On through Home Assistant, but I’m having difficulties to set it up. Once I’m done all the local network will be Ad free, so it includes all the smart TVs and their apps

On mobile Revanced On desktop Firefox with the appropriate addons

The excuse was the 3rd party API shenanigans on Reddit. The real reason occured, as I expanded my stay here, and realised that without Federated Social Media and Open Source Software, humanity will turn into a neo-feudal barbaric age of cruelty sooner than later

Our societies have a tendancy to be more authoritarian, autocratic and consumption driven. The way the corporations are using anyone’s data is not transparent and there is no accountability for it. There is also no monetary reward for the use of my data.

Therefore, I prefer to use open source apps and federated SM.

So to answer your question, I would like transparency and accountability about my data usage, as well as compensation. And no I would not like more ads. Since I realise that my preferences are impossible, I try to make the switch I referred above

jellyfin goes arrrrrr

If you are referring to corporate “free” products such as email, cloud and media consumption, I use them until I’m able not to and switch to open source. ex. Gmail -> protonmail Google Drive, photos, contacts -> Next Cloud YouTube -> Jellyfin etc. If you’re referring to corporate Social Media, I just refrain from using them, except FB at the minimum due to contact with old relatives. For other Social Media consumption, I ditched Tweeter (or X or whatever) and Reddit, never used Instagram and TikTok. Switched to Federated SM like Lemmy (Duh!!!) and Mastodon.

TLDR. I value my data,but I draw the line in accordance with my ability to afford it

You should concentrate your efforts to live, not just survive.

That depends only on the competition.

20 years ago I payed €65 for 4Mbps. Now I m paying €25 for 200Mbps + a landline with unlimited local calls + an android box (that I use for PLEX and retro gaming) that provides 50+ channels through an app.That was the last renewal.

I also switched my cell provider. I used to pay €42 for unlimited calls, SMS and Data. Now I pay €25 for the whole package.

You’re finally awake in death row and then spend the whole adventure, shouting to others, trying to avoid knee injury

indeed

You fuck your way until you gather a big enough force to save the Galaxy from blue squids

AtlasOS is your solution

I am a Social Worker. But Computers are my hobby since as long as I remember.
