Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Nooooooooooooooooooo. :O

Yes its quite nice!

Its just replacing closed systems with more closed systems.

I’m watching closely.

Not directly relevant but I just discovered CachyOS for my AYN Loki and it’s pretty fuckin awesome. I hope we retain some non-immutable options for those of us who want to heavily customize our experiences with these devices. It was hard to find something I could just run syncthing and some standalone emulators on. I don’t want valve and libretro in complete control of what I do and do not do on my handheld linux or not - and it could very easily go that way with the popularity of immutable distros. Maybe I’m just paranoid. I dont know.

I self host every fediverse thing I can and when I open it I know its mine and I can glance over at the machine running it all and see where it all is and that feels good enough to deal with whatever comes up. That said, these days its all pretty easy.

So glad I saw this post I’ve had an 8th gen kindle jammed under a pile of bullshit for quite a while because fuck bezos. Ended up being able to use winter break and now I can use the device without contributing to fascism. Today was a good day!

Man this is some fuckin excellent news

Indeed, seems the only path forward. Thansk for sharing.

Its a good suggestion and something I’ve considered. Unfortunately we’re using conduit as our server and that type of integration doesn’t seem to work well outside of synapse. That said I know some people have gotten it working I just need to dig a little deeper. It’s a chore for sure but it seems like the only path forward.

I wish I could convince my giant discord community to go anywhere else. It’s so fucking hard. I’ve built IRC networks and a matrix server. I host every fediverse app imaginable. I hate being attached to this company and my income being reliant on it.

this made me lol
