I’m a frequent user of temporary mails so from experience this will be no more than a 5-10 second manual workaround.

I literally change IP with a single click. It takes between one or two seconds to establish a random connection to one of the 6092 different IP’s available to me.

Thank you for being the only one mentioning swipe, you’ve convinced me to give it a go.

Edit: It doesn’t even ask for internet permission. Delightful.

Thr wheag fron the chadd?

I think some sort of sync capabilities is almost a must have now a days. My impression is that only power users use RSS and they usually have several devices, at least a computer and a phone.

Who doesn’t have a dedicated toilet tablet for browsing RSS and registering poop quality, both very dependent on sync capabilities?

I run NC News. It’s in no way comparable to FreshRSS and have like only the official companion app for mobile use beyond the web interface.

The main benefit is that it’s not another platform to run on one’s server. On my big server I’ve integrated two FreshRSS’s (one for text, one for video) into Nextcloud through iFrames, on my home hosted Raspberry I just wanted something simple that didn’t require reverse proxies and other advanced setup. Thus NC News.

There used to be a couple but they didn’t seen to be too well maintained the last time I checked. But to be fair, it’s a niche implementation of what at this point is a niche internet tech.

I wonder what salary the newly appointed CEO gets. Is it disgustingly much, like with Mitchell Baker or did Laura Chambers get a raise for taking the reigns?

Baker have drained Mozilla for all she can without completely ruining the brand name and now there’s somebody else’s turn.

The only reason I went from Brave to LibreWolf was the damn AI bullshit. Firefox as a browser is subpar in all aspects beside being open source and not fucking about with AI. I guess they lost the “don’t fucking about with AI” lead and is now competing on a technical level with chromium browsers.

And why do all serious companies go for the chromium engine instead of gecko? Because it’s better.

Amateurs, I’m an AI artisté and demand big bucks for “my” art pieces. Also fuck everybody who made all the stuff that the AI stole from.

You sound like a frustrated maintainer, have you considered doing what I do with open source projects using discord as their means of communication?

Don’t take it seriously and move on.

Of course. Open source clients on open source operating systems connecting to self-hosted servers on private infrastructure with open source software.

As soon as open source hardware is practically available I’m never using proprietary processors ever again, I don’t care if they’re “underpowered” by computational power - All backdoored CPU’s are underpowered by my standards to verified non-backdoored CPU’s.

Maybe not everything

Laughs in hardcore open source

Open source search engine SearcxNG works very well with Lemmy posts and comments.

as relatively easily and cheaply

You pay more when using these types of software than if you hired an engineer to set up a complete forum ecosystem. Just not with money.

I’m more into audio assets, but on that side AI has really impressed me. I don’t know how it works with the ethics involved in the production of the systems themselves, but I run training on my own engineered soundsamples to train the AI to reproduce specific voices. Makes it really easy to know where that part of the output comes from - 100% my stuff.

In the world of today the crustyness of dolan and spooderman is more relevant than ever!

Par Avion. I’ll do homing pigeons before using discord.

Is it negativity when there’s no effective measures in sight? Is is pessimism to look at the presented data and make a realistic conclusion?

Where does hope stop and naïvety begin?

Oh. I have it the other way around, Lemmy is pretty much all I do when I’m pooping.

How do you… Browse Lemmy from your workstation or the couch?

I approve of this shitposting.
