"Privacy" for normies is... Weird.
  • I understand! I know there is a lot of hype about Discord, especially young people love it. Despite all the features, isn't Discord just a chat software? Reading your answer, I think you are looking for a forum software (not chat) 😄 Have you looked at Discourse? It is open source, offers a modern, hierarchical structure with categories and subcategories, extensive permission systems and role management. It is specifically designed for larger communities and allows easy management of moderators and admins.

  • Matrix is horrible for large communities

    Interesting, what issues did you have? How large are those communities?

  • is there a search engine for the fediverse?
  • Have you tried searxng? Just switch them on in the settings:

  • Lemmy Development Update 2024-02-09
  • Thank you guys! 😃👍

  • Call For Tegra U-Boot Testers
  • Great! I think I have a Asus Transformer Pad lying around, I might give it a shot!

  • Looking for Notes App for Android & Linux
  • I highly recommend:

    • Web: Nextcloud + Nextcloud Notes App + Qownnotes Sync App
    • Desktop: Qownnotes and/or vim (or any texteditor of choice)
    • Mobile: Nextcloud Notes

    Main advantage of this software stack over other solutions like joplin is the handling of the notes. Everthing is stored in a simple folder structure in plain markdown text files (*.md). This means if anything breaks, you are always able to read and edit with any text editor on any system! I switched away from joplin because it stores the notes in a database and notes file names are a cryptic string, so if you are not able to load joplin it's very hard to find anything.

  • As an Arch Linux user on every thinkpad I own: what the heck is a chromebook?

  • Selfhosted backup solution with GUI
  • You could do pull based backups with a central kopia instance and remote machines as described here: https://github.com/kopia/kopia/issues/1636#issuecomment-1596279322

  • Selfhosted backup solution with GUI
  • Sorry, I'm not fully aware of that. I'm currently in a similar position like you, and Kopia is one of the things I going to try out :)

  • Selfhosted backup solution with GUI
  • Maybe Kopia is what you are looking for? It's opensource and has a GUI:

    "Cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS & Linux with fast, incremental backups, client-side end-to-end encryption, compression and data deduplication. CLI and GUI included."

  • Linux zu nutzen weigere ich mich.

    Seelig sind die geistig Armen 😂

  • Lemmy v0.18.1 Release
  • @dessalines as always: well done, thank you!

  • Is debian with hardened kernel and full disk encryption the best option for a librebooted thinkpad x200?
    1. Debian is always a great choice 👍. Sometimes the packages are dated, but this OS is solid and easy. Go for it!
    2. I use arch btw. Because of its rolling distribution model, bleeding edge packages and the AUR.
