Move your stuff from Gandi to Netim.com
Gandi got acquired and has done some very weird shit with pricing.

To answer your other question, actively using and maintaining my PIM since 2009.

I like Silverbullet, but I could never get the file tree to work well. Any tips? Or is that not a feature you use?

I moved all my cloud computing from DO and Vultr to European owned options. It’s a small thing, but it’s about the only thing that I had been purchasing from the USA.

Sounds like someone who is sensibly voting with their dollar. I’m not from USA or Canada, and I am doing the same.

It’s pretty identical there champ.

One of the benefits of Obsidian is that it stores its data in a format where you CAN use cli tools and python etc. That’s one of the reasons I’m using it myself.
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 weeks ago:
It’s a different thing. What Obsidian and Logseq offer is plain-text markdown files in folders on your disk. Upnote and most of the other alternatives mentioned in this post store their data in a database.
Different thing altogether.

You only have to consider the plugin developers. Most of them would have the technical ability to do what you mention, but they prefer to use Obsidian instead. Clearly there’s a reason for that.

I assume this means free for local use? Not any kind of backups?
Why would they donate server space to you on top of giving you free (beer) software?
That’s literally what you said… ??

There are many apps that are great editors for this structure on every platform
And Obsidian is one of those apps 🤦 It’s has equal amount of “point” to all the other editors you think are somehow more valid - it’s just another editor.

Markdown has many more elements than bullet points
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 weeks ago:
Thank you, that’s what I had suspected, so I’m glad I wasn’t doing anything wrong.
The way I like to think is through long form writing and personal documentation, so I guess it’s not a good match for me.
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 weeks ago:
I think for some brains it just doesn’t click. How do you write a long form document? How would you write documentation? How would you write a blog post?
I tried for a while but I just couldn’t understand the concept of “Everything as an outline.”
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 weeks ago:
It’s a very, very different approach having everything as a bullet point though.

- Comment on In psychotherapists vs. ChatGPT showdown, the latter wins, new study finds 3 weeks ago:
You can’t say “Exactly” when you tl;dr’d and removed one of the most important parts of the article.
Your human summary was literally worse than AI 🤦
- Comment on In psychotherapists vs. ChatGPT showdown, the latter wins, new study finds 3 weeks ago:
A bit disingenuous not to mention the following paragraph:
Further, participants in most cases preferred ChatGPT’s take on the matter at hand. That was based on five factors: whether the response understood the speaker, showed empathy, was appropriate for the therapy setting, was relevant for various cultural backgrounds, and was something a good therapist would say.

Originally they listed Yandex along with naming other major search engines, then later changed the language to say simply “major search engines”.
What’s the issue if API calls are anonymous?

Thank you for letting us know.

Home automation. Great for making QR codes with a low density (since the link is short).

Kutt is extremely easy to selfhost and fast as hell (and not written in PHP).
- Comment on Introducing Privacy Pass authentication for Kagi Search | Kagi Blog 3 weeks ago:
I was annoyed that I read the blog post and installed the extension, only to find that caveat right on the blog post footer. Feels like it should have been bolded right at the top.
- Comment on Introducing Privacy Pass authentication for Kagi Search | Kagi Blog 3 weeks ago:
The browser extensions which implement the protocol are open source. Not sure how much you can verify from that as I’m not skilled enough.

You can use Immich Public Proxy to share the albums without having to expose your Immich instance. You can use all the normal Immich options - password protected albums, and links that expire, etc
- Comment on Omnivore Alternatives? 3 months ago:
The “minimal” part is incorrect; it is a super complicated container. The number of moving parts don’t leave me with any confidence that I could keep it running or fix any issues going forwards.
- Comment on Podman or rootless docker? 3 months ago:
Rootless Podman :) It requires you to learn a little bit of new syntax, for example, the way you mount volumes and pass environment variables can be slightly different, but there’s nothing that hasn’t worked for me.
- Comment on Podman or rootless docker? 3 months ago:
I switched and was very glad to do so. You increase your security and so far I haven’t seen any downside. Every container I’ve tried has worked without issues, even complex ones.

You can’t know with certainty on Signal that the client and the server are actually keeping your messages encrypted at rest, you have to trust them.
With Matrix, if you self host, you are the one in control.
