  So did I. I actually used a glass UI on XP while waiting for Vista.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Apple’s iOS 26 and Google’s Android 16 Will Change Our Phones⁩ ⁨⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  iOS 26 looks like Vista. Revolutionary.

  I guess linux has more docummentation

  “More documentation” is a double-edged sword. Under the BSDs, the documentation is shorter, but better; and much of it is also much less complicated, so you don’t even have to look at it all the time.

  is performace on bsd better than linux?

  It depends.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would I repurpose a work laptop?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Depending on what games you play, I warmly recommend “a BSD”, like FreeBSD, which supports both Linux (in the kernel) and Windows (via Wine) emulation.

  Though unfortunately i’m still bound to the damn gmail because i cant find better alternative for it.

  I self-host my e-mails, but that probably isn’t a viable solution for just everyone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Does a Post-Google Internet Look Like⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I had to advertise my first website on paper!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Does a Post-Google Internet Look Like⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I hope that won’t disappear anytime soon!

  If you don’t want to pay to access a web search service, just use docker

  IMO: My personal problem with Docker is that it creates its own kind of vendor lock-in. Docker does not run on the server operating systems I use. The tendency is towards a Linux monoculture and that is never a good idea. Docker is a symptom, not a solution.

  True, although Qobuz targets a slightly different audience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Technofascist military fantasy': Spotify faces boycott calls over CEO’s investment in AI military startup⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I even buy vinyls

  TIDAL pays much more to the artists anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My head is full of memories of a person who isn't me, only someone who will become me.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a word for that, “anemoia”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  TIDAL HiFi is FLAC as far as I know.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  When I started listening to more obscure avantgarde records, I stopped believing in genres. I mean, take Mr Bungle for example. Twelve genres in four minutes. How would you even label that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lite soon⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can mix TIDAL and piracy; I use tidal-dl quite a lot. The problem with streaming services is that they can close shop in five minutes, and all of “your” music won’t be yours anymore.

  (I think Apple Music has similar tools.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you leave WhatsApp, your chats will usually follow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can help making it stronger. That’s what I did in Germany: if people want to contact me, I usually give them my Threema ID first, everything else comes later.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Switzerland. ;-)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know - this hype about Matrix reminds me of XMPP which was similarly popular a decade ago. Today, nobody even remembers it anymore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Threema has a pretty big momentum in some countries.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Signal – an ethical replacement for WhatsApp⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don‘t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Websites Are Tracking You Via Browser Fingerprinting⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why is that even an option you can disable?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Websites Are Tracking You Via Browser Fingerprinting⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The more people disable JS, the more websites won’t require it.

  I miss the Windows 3.11 sound.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My WordPress workflow: WordTsar (a WordStar clone), Markdown and (optionally) iA Writer⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It sure does, and I am mentally prepared to move over to Hugo. I just haven’t had the inner calmness needed to do so just yet, and I probably won’t in the near future.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This Alternative Operating System Is Keeping Retro Computing Alive⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would really like to see someone adopt and modernize something like Plan 9 or Inferno.

  9front exists.
