- Comment on Mastodon and today's fediverse are unsafe by design and unsafe by default 5 months ago:
Which is exactly how the real world works. Harm has to be identified to suggest solutions. Otherwise you‘re becoming the helicopter parent that denies their kid every opportunity to learn and cause allergies and other bad outcomes. Translated back to the fediverse: it is great the way it is and improvements are always encouraged. We have much bigger and more pressing issues. This is not it.
- Comment on Twitch-like service for the fediverse? 6 months ago:
You can. Source: I run an instance.
- Comment on Federation is kicking my butt! 6 months ago:
Ah! Nice. I can only encourage you to do so. It is in fact quite a bit of work but I‘m sure its both going to be easier every day and depending on your skillset and setup, you’ll probably have it a lot easier than me. I have like 13 docker stacks atm. only on my vps and another 10 or so on my homeserver. :)
- Comment on Federation is kicking my butt! 6 months ago:
Glad you asked. Yes, mostly. Some things are still janky but most of it works. Whats your setup?
- Comment on Federation is kicking my butt! 6 months ago:
Thanks for the suggestion. Will check it out! :)

Let me know if you need anything else! :)
Here it is! Thanks again for offering your help.

Very cool! I‘ll post the configs as soon as I am on my computer! Thank you for offering.

- Comment on Peertube appears to have doubled their MAU 6 months ago:
I‘m thinking of hosting a peertube instance just for funzies. It seems like an awesome thing. I just dont „get“ it as much as I get mastodon, lemmy and matrix. Something about the discovery process does not click with me yet. Is anyone making an ios (i know) app soon?
- Comment on Looking for some Google Workspace alternatives 6 months ago:
Thanks for elaborating a bit. I opted against the password app since I wanted to diversify services. My nextcloud is a bit finnicky at times and wants to be updated before you can proceed with stuff. Having no access to my passwords in that moment would be harsh. So I opted for vaultwarden and it even has firefox integration, cli integration and a desktop app for linux (dunno about windows, honestly). I‘m not sure if it was a bad idea to put NC‘s database on spinning discs though. Maybe that was stupid.
As you can see, very much a WIP as well. I feel like we need some kind of place to accumulate iCloud -> NC expats. A lot of good could be done there.
I‘m on matrix as well but i‘m not proficient yet. My wife is still on whatsapp so I need to be patient. We have gotten rid of twitter and reddit which I count as a win.
What other projects do you have? Feel free to send me a dm with your matrix username if you want to keep in touch about this.
- Comment on Looking for some Google Workspace alternatives 6 months ago:
I‘m also migrating from iCloud (to NC among other things) and its been slow to say the least. Things I struggle with:
- setting up photo alternative with face recognition (recognition app is okayish but not as strong as I‘d like)
- getting whatsapp to somehow backup outside of iCloud
- getting my passwords out of iCloud (you need a mac for that) into vaultwarden
- NC being quite slow now that a couple apps and mid 5 digits of photos are in there, will try memcache soonish
For those who don’t know NC, these things are 1/10 of the stuff that NC is actually good at imo.
How is your experience so far?

NV got me in an aggro loop and kept me from finishing the game. Worst experience yet.
- Comment on Nyrna - a Linux/Windows tool to suspend/resume games and applications 6 months ago:
Thanks for the tipp! Currently, I have a bit of a problem with hibernation. My proprietary gpu driver sends me to blackscreen and forces me to hard reboot. So that I might need to fix first. :)
- Comment on Nyrna - a Linux/Windows tool to suspend/resume games and applications 6 months ago:
Thanks! Will do!
- Comment on Nyrna - a Linux/Windows tool to suspend/resume games and applications 6 months ago:
Thanks for clearing that up. Thanks for sharing then. Maybe someone else knows this.
- Comment on Nyrna - a Linux/Windows tool to suspend/resume games and applications 6 months ago:
I recently found out that a game I played froze when my pc went into auto suspend. Does this help with it too? Thanks for making this.
- Comment on My Home Server software stack 7 months ago:
Nextcloud (or docker for that matter) are rather complex.
Permission problems are every day life in linux, you always have to sudo or - if you change that - someone else can vaporize your server and steal all your data. Linux is infinitely more secure because it is a nightmare to use casually with a complex setup. Some windows script kiddie is gonna die inside your directories and never be found again.
Writing a script that you need to make executable first? Chowning files that are made by docker? Having to use a specific user inside docker (in case of nextcloud especially)?
All these things are incredibly frustrating but given the sheer complexity of nextcloud, it’s actually working rather good imo. So does linux.
I‘m not shitting on linux, docker or nc. I love them all but saying they’re not working just says they’re not plug and play yet. Other examples: most things snap are a mystery for me. Freakin permissions.
- Comment on Browsers compared 7 months ago:
Very good idea! Be the change you wanna see and fork firefox right now! :) or build something else entirely.

Boring dystopia any% speedrun
- Comment on [deleted] 7 months ago:
This would be insanely good. Especially in combination. Combine all fediverse communities on lemmy and view all crossposts as one for example.
- Comment on The games industry sucks 7 months ago:
Makes sense I guess. Thanks for elaborating.
- Comment on The games industry sucks 7 months ago:
Are there any tech co-ops or 100% employee owned companies? Could be a system forward.
- Comment on The games industry sucks 7 months ago:
I bought minecraft when it was 10$ I believe. Pretty sure it was still played in the browser then.
I‘m down for this type of indie game. :)
- Comment on How I got robbed of my first kernel contribution 7 months ago:
Thank you for explaining. This helps me understand both his and this here situation.
First of all, I‘m totally ok with it being absurd. It was my impression that this person has been wronged and should be appropriately compensated for their (shit ton of) work. From the text, it seemed like there is a way to get this compensation (in the form of recognition of some sort).
I‘m totally fine with being told that he misrepresented the situation and he‘s more going off a principle here which would never be enforceable. If there were such a „standard“ for recognition for kernel controbution, one could definitely try to enforce it.
In general, I have no problem with standing corrected. What I do have a problem with is the way people in IT centric communities on lemmy (and reddit) behave in general.
Obviously you were kind enough to explain instead and without being violent or abusive. I highly respect that. Thanks again.
- Comment on How I got robbed of my first kernel contribution 7 months ago:
The person who shamelessly took their work and profited from it (in reputation). Who else?
- Comment on How I got robbed of my first kernel contribution 7 months ago:
I would absolutely try to sue in this case. My experiences with very experienced specialists is not stellar at all. The amount of gatekeeping and sheer arrogance is frightening. I get it, nobody wants to work on the kernel. It’s an underpaid (presumably) and underappreciated task. I would probably become an asshole as well if I dedicated 90% of my free time to fixing obscure bugs in even more obscure architecture.
Disclaimer: I‘m not a kernel dev and my experience stems from interactions with maybe 100 people of varying stages of proficiency. Sadly, the more proficient, the less friendly they often were.
- Comment on Help trying to set up an Ubuntu server as a router... 7 months ago:
I sadly don’t know a lot about router setups but there is an !ubuntuserver@discuss.tchncs.de community you could crosspost to if you want to. :) good luck.
- Comment on Is lemmy.ml turn into authoritarian? 7 months ago:
I really enjoyed reading your explanation. Thank you very much.
This calms me down quite a bit. :) have a good day.
- Comment on Is lemmy.ml turn into authoritarian? 7 months ago:
Reading this really troubles me. I don’t like the implication that using lemmy is pushing authoritarian ideology.
If I was born 50 yrs earlier I would literally have been put in the gas chamber. I tick several qualifiers for it.

I actually followed your advice yesterday (everything is ok again now) and streamed from my phone. Thanks :)
