It seems we don't really produce HDDs in Europe, which is still the cheapest storage for large amounts of data. But at least it's good to know that there are alternatives out there!

Goodram seems to be the best option for external hard drives, as Swissbit seems to lean more towards smaller form factors. Thanks!

Thanks! I'm not entirely set on whether I'll get HDD or SSD (I only need a couple of TB), so I'll check them out.

Yeah, I guess avoiding the US is probably the best I can do here.

Maybe Verbatim (edit: and Synology) could be a good option - they're Taiwanese, so at least it would somewhat align with my geopolitical positioning. :)

Yeah, for me too - I'd rather have feeds on top.

I'm following so many communities the list is really useless unless I use Ctrl+F. For users like me it would make more sense to collapse the list of communities unless I ask to see it.

Then again, I brought this on myself.

I really like that instance is now added to communities with the same name!

I think that would be most people these days.

They have powerful (and generous) international allies these days. No wonder they feel empowered.

unless every single person angry at his bigotry does everything right

If they do everything right according to his book they'll be busy licking his boots.

Could also be two separate things? I have a) dumped Windows and b) installed Lineage.

We're outsourcing thinking to a bullshit generator controlled by mostly American mega-corporations who have repeatedly demonstrated that they want to do us harm, burning through scarce resources and rendering creative humans robbed and unemployed in the process.

What's not to hate.

Yeah, I think these are good priorities, and PieFed.social seems like a pretty reliable new home. I'm obviously a fan, considering that I've been using it since the start. :)

Peer to peer, hence the name. :)
