Probably welcoming, not every Reddit employee stands behind the decisions made by their management.

If they enjoy to browse Lemmy more then Reddit it doesn't automatically make them unloyal to their job or a enemy of Lemmy.

/e/OS it is degoogled but most of the "Google" applications have been replacedby great opensource alternatives or adapted. The app store still allows us to install apps from the playstore but anonymously.

Well, if they launch. I will certainly block then from interacting with the content of my instances' users.

Is this the federation killer?

Fairphone 4 running /e/OS. I love the modularity, quality and robustness. Just the fact that if I drop my screen I can just replace it for €80 using my own hands.

/e/OS is still in development, which you sometimes notice, but I love its privacy focused aspects. It is decoupled from Google, includes a tracker monitor and blocker, an appstore that can download apps from the Google Play store anonymously and best of all the developers do deliver. All their releases are well tested.

The only thing I struggle with are in app purchases. If they use the Google Play platform they just won't work.

I bought this phone from Murena, which is a branch of the /e/Foundation that sells devices with /e/OS preinstalled.

What is your definition of bot? Even if you toggle the "I'm a bot option" off you can still access the API using a programming interface. Thus you are able to run a bot even if its account has not been defined as a bot.

It is probably possible to create a client (like Jerboa or Lemmy-UI) that is able to hide messages from accounts that are defined as a bot. But if a account hasn't been defined as a bot, its messages will still show up, even if they are written by an automated script.

I accidentally posted using the wrong account. I tried to delete the other post which seemed to work on the instance but doesn't seem the federate.

[–] Riktastic@laguna.chat 4 points 1 year ago

I don't think so. What works for me is to first login to Jerboa, then enable 2FA.

I am a fan of Namecheap.They have lots of exotic domains. Domains are easy to manage, free domain privacy but their support is really slow and a bit incompetent.

For local domains, like: .UK, .US, .DE, I register there locally. Thus making sure that all my service providers are capable if handling the local privacy laws.

For DNS I use cloudflare.

Still faster than Windows :)

I didn't know that KDE and Xfce are that close to each other. I really KDE on my daily driver, at first I wouldn't run it on a server, but now it seems to be a perfectly viable option.

Welcome to Lemmy!

KDE is my daily driver. I love its infrastructure, its programs, its software, and that I can subscribe to new developments.

That's great. I really want to play Apex.
