Tailscale is great. Don’t believe the bad press. You can always switch in the future if they change their trajectory.

I run all of that on a Dell Optiplex that I bought refurbished in your price range. I couldn’t figure out the self-signing certificates to run nextcloud without a domain, so I run OwnCloud, but hopefully you’ll have better luck.

By the same token, you could just read the Cliff’s Notes and burn down an acre of rainforest to achieve the same results.

This is great, thanks!

Yes!

Someone in this community once said that if you’re not ready with a backup plan, then you’re not ready for self-hosting.

The distro doesn’t really have much impact on the end result. Use what you prefer. Especially if you are using containers which is really the way to go anyway.

It’s worth noting that there are some problems with using Snap. I don’t recall the service I was using, but I was pulling out my hair trying to solve something that I could not get working. Turns out that the snap installation did not function in the expected way and the solution was to re-install without Snap.

I’m not pirating. I’m building my model.

Means nothing to me until there is an open source option for RCS. It is supposed to be an open standard, but in reality Google has a total stranglehold on the technology.

Anyone still on Twitter is fine hanging out in a Nazi bar.

I linked you the entire response.

I thought it was very considerate and responsive that the creator replied immediately. I’m sure they would be happy to answer any follow-up that you have.

That is how the location features work.

It’s not actually present in the FDroid version in any case according to the creator.

I asked the creator. The F-Droid version does not actually use network access. It is used to access mapping API from Mapbox.

I use it as my primary gallery app. It works great.

You seem to be really stuck on this. You posted about a grant program that Mozilla is involved in for a startup to work on developing a secure chat on a more open protocol. Now you dug up a LinkedIn post about the same startup attending an unrelated AI technology conference.

No one is saying that Mozilla isn’t involved in AI at all. The only thing I said is that the foundation is in trouble because Google antitrust actions are likely to harm their funding. As a result, they are cutting back in a lot of areas, including staffing, AI, and other side projects.

The original article ignorantly and irresponsibly overlooks the basic math of the situation.

Looks like a step in the right direction. E2EE messaging is a worthy venture under the Mozilla umbrella.

Not sure why you are posting about it in this thread about AI.

The author’s timeline is off. The AI investment was in 2023, before most of the Google antitrust activity. They are also scaling back their AI programs.

Why do people love to hate on Firefox? People have been harping on Pocket for years as a waste of resources that hardly anyone uses, but now that they are eliminating it, people are coming out of the woodwork to wax nostalgic?

It turns out that making a modern browser is a huge, complex task. It’s been said that it is more on par with maintaining an OS than another type of app. Mozilla is not perfect but why are we so quick to let the perfect be the enemy of the good?

It’s pretty tone-deaf to criticize layoffs on the same article that acknowledges their historic dependence on Google’s rapidly collapsing monopoly. Where is the money going to come from?

A poorly thought out blog post about the only major browser that isn’t built on Apple, Google, or Microsoft.

Didn’t Escobar Inc. already try this?

Looking forward to the JerryRigEverything video.

C’mon, people… File versioning.

I believe that’s exactly what is happening. I just don’t know how to fix it. I could edit the YML files and delete restart: unless-stopped but I want my containers to restart if something goes down unexpectedly

I’m even less of an expert lol. What information can I provide to help?
