Even better: YouTube still provides RSS feeds. You can “subscribe” to your favourite channels by adding them to your RSS reader.

And for desktop, there’s also FreeTube.

They’ll probably make “Maps+” soon after.

Looks like there was www.diforfree.org some 7-10 years ago. I’ve found a few remnants via Google. But I couldn’t find anything that’s still working.

Might be a language barrier as I’m not a native English speaker, yes. And I was referring to their moderation team. They seem to have no issues with extremist left stuff, but the moment you don’t display nothing but pure hate against something considered “right” (in the context of German politics) they get very trigger happy with the ban hammer.

I was thinking more that their moderation team is mostly German and thus they’re very sensitive about German politics but less sensitive about other countries’ politics.

I got shadowbanned for life for mentioning not to blindly believe some statement about a “secret” report about the German right-wing party without seeing said report first. So that’s that.

Depends on the area. As it’s a German instance, in terms of German politics it really is “as left as it gets”. But they probably don’t care much about US politics.

mastodon.social is the flagship instance and as left as it gets.

Ah, gut zu wissen! Danke! :)

The K3 Keyboard and the Voyage are the best Kindles IMHO. And I even had the same neon-yellow/green origami case for mine. Gave the K3 to my MIL when I upgraded to the Voyage. And sold the Voyage when I wanted to free myself from that walled garden a few years ago.

If you don’t want to get rid of your Voyage, you can turn it into a TRMNL and have it show your calendar, news, etc. instead.

The important bit is -v /opt/podman/searxng/config:/etc/searxng:Z in the podman call. This will mount your local directory (i.e. on the host the container is running on) /opt/podman/searxng/config into the container as /etc/searxng (which is where SearXNG is searching for its config). Make sure that the local directory exists and is writeable by your user account before starting the container. This way your config will persist even when the container gets replaced by an updated version.

IIRC, after running the container for the first time, SearXNG should put a settings.yml and uwsgi.ini there. You can edit them and restart the container for the changes to take.

On later container updates, SearXNG will put the latest versions of the default configs as settings.yml.new and uwsgi.ini.new. This way it doesn’t overwrite your config and allows you to manually merge the new defaults into your running config. (If you only see the *.new files after starting the container for the first time, rename them and remove the .new part.)

Does the Optiplex have passive cooling? I don’t want these things to make any noise at all.

News Explorer on macOS, iOS and ipadOS. Syncs everything, so whatever device you pick up, you can continue reading where you left off. Also supports following people on Mastodon and YouTube channels via RSS.

They changed it quite some while ago but you were still able to get books in the older format by using an older Kindle (or Kindle app version). I haven’t checked myself, but heard rumours that this loophole was closed recently.

If it still works for you: Apprentice Alf’s DeDRM plugin for Calibre.

But I believe this ship has sailed after Amazon’s recent changes…

Can Dockge manage/cleanup unused images and containers by now? That’s the only reason I keep using Portainer - because it can show all the other stuff and lets me free up space.

First, you buy an eye patch. And maybe some small and energy efficient computer. A Raspberry Pi 5 might even be enough for your first steps. Or maybe some small form-factor PC. Then you install Linux on there and follow one of the various guides for Linux.

I’m really exhausted

We all are!

As Plume isn’t maintained anymore, there are also a few ActivityPub plugins for WordPress which work very well.

NeoDB is Trakt.tv

All uploads go through an AV scan, though. But yeah, better be safe than sorry.
