I use Oracle fo No Lastname Needed, and it works well (although I have out grown the free tier), but I would NOT recommend them for a newbie to hosting as it’s a very complex eco-system compared to just a cheap VPS

• Oracle is evil
• Google is evil
• AWS is evil…

maybe the influx of 10k accounts in the last few weeks just pushed the admin team too far?

Android app, never mind

This looks cool, I was thinking about this as part of de-googleing.

Does it have location sharing like google’s services? A little reading and I find the answer is OwnTracks or Overland

I use backblaze as well, got an link to the docker container - that may save me a few dollar bucks a week and thus keep SWMBO happier

Just a build conflict, it was resolved upstream in a day or so:

I did have a slight issue when I went to 0.19.11 with caddy cloudflair, but that is outside of the bounds of what you control

Is very easy, by @[email protected]. Not sure if they are doing more updates though?

A bit shit to release the name of the driver

There is a small piece in Te Ara (The Encyclopedia of New Zealand) about sexuality in the pacific, that you may find worth a read.

I do, mostly for my self but I do allow registrations. I’m generally the only user though.

The communities that I do have get a little trafic - but they are very NZ and niche

Email… My wife really wants to further de-google, this means moving custom domains off gsute.

Do I move to proton/tuta or go back to self hosting email again like I did for years until about 2010?

If I self host, do I do it at home or on the server that runs my lemmy instance?

You can use a single domain and subdomains for each service. Once you start to host multi-services you will need more and more compute power and storage.

just did the jump fro. .5 to .8 today (for all of my 2 active users)

you could live in a 3rd world country that doesn’t care if individuals pirate. eg New Zealand

for some of us it’s not even that pseudonymous.
