- Comment on Reliable messenger for family use? 1 week ago:
The last update was obviously vibe coded. At least all the UI was fucked up. All sizings were messed up, colors were inverted.
And don’t get me started on continuously moving pre-existing community features into “paid only”. First boards was almost deprecated, then playbooks.

You have bo idea how much of a pain in the ass mattermost is. Basically corporate trying to leech off of opensource. I decided to make it the messenger in our org 3 4 years ago. But I might move away from it if it starts acting up more.

Movim seemed cool

Musicolet or vlc on my android. 100GB of local music on my SD card I have collected since I was a kid.
- Comment on Radicale: Can someone please offer any guidance on usage and security. Om abit lost 1 month ago:
I’ve been thinking of creating one for a long time but it’s sitting in my pile of project ideas.
Honestly, if some other experience software engineer is up for it, we’ll do it together.

Infcloud is the only presentble web ui for webdav/cldav/carddav, but as far as I remember its unmaintained

And then you follow/subscribe other peoples feeds? And your client fetches them? but theres no such thing as a “global feed”?

Thank you! I actually got that fogured at during the second war but didn’t got the time to update the post. I put what I learnt in my knowledge base linked below. I will uodate the post. Thank you for pointing that out!
I tried to push it at work but most of my team members didn’t felt like learning this whole new workflow (they’re “normies” you could say. Using windows, outlook, etc.)

Does this work with a central server of some sort or is it decentralized and the only thing we have are text files and clients, and the clients handle everything else?
- Comment on What's your contingency plan for the apocalypse? 1 month ago:
I actually wrote a blog about this a few months back. It was after a 12 day war (Israel+USA attacking Iran) and 40 day internet blackout, and then we got into another war (Israel+USA attacking Iran) and a 90-100 day(lost track) internet blackout.
It isn’t exactly “how to survive the apocalypse” guide but it was a really helpful guide for myself and my friends and helped me keep working in those blackout days.

Being able to pay easily. I’m in a region with no access to visa,master and other international payment methods.
The only simple way for me to buy products from otger countries is with crypto.
- Comment on Email ownership, I give up. 1 month ago:
Thanks. No I can’t send them cash
- Comment on Email ownership, I give up. 1 month ago:
I’ve heard bad things about both. Proton implies a lot of lock in and you almost can’t use it with custom clients (thunderbird, aerc)
Tuta’s support is pretty much nonexistent.
- Comment on Team Project management solution 1 month ago:
Keep in mind, check the solution’s licensing so they don’t suddenly start putting things behind paywall. Use software that is truly FOSS (GPL for example) with no exceptions.
Saying this because I’m bit by mattermost’s head-assery.

Seems cool! I’ve been looking for something like this. Especially if it can be used as a collaborative knowledge management tool for team knowledge bases.
