Yeah people act like it’s so easy to get a virus but if you’re even remotely competent it’s pretty easy to avoid

As if we needed further proof that that man is a lunatic and a moron.

Genuine question: what alternative would you recommend? I was planning on buying a few for various projects next month with my next paycheck but now I’m not too keen on funding them.

I can’t wait to have to pay a subscription fee for some aspect of it.

No their ads told me they’re the heroic guardians of my privacy.

“You will love the cloud and we will sell everything you upload to it. You won’t own your data, OS or hardware when we are done.”

…that has no bearing on the fact that they’re both bad policy as measured by their impact on this country.

I believe he ruined any such claim with his work on criminal justice legislation long before he endorsed genocide of a captive population.

Yep! As the other commenter who replies to you said, it definitely can. You don’t even have to selfhost it; the app’s developer hosts a cloud sync server you can pay for thays dirt cheap. You can also sync notes without the cloud server. There are a lot of ways you can use it without having to get into the technical aspect of it!

I boost Joplin on here every chance I get, so please allow me to do so again now! I run it with my own sync server and a small userbase of about 6 people on a cheap VPS. I could not be happier; between the webclipper, sharing, encryption, embedding of pdfs, photos, even mp4s, ease of selfhosting, it’s an amazing project! It’s been (knock on wood) rock solid!

No offense, but is this move motivated by a true need to move ASAP? Because this doesn’t really read like it was written by someone in their thirties. Frankly, if it’s not a true need, it doesn’t seem from this post that you’re in a financial position to do this on anything close to a safe manner. And thus: if this is just a desire, no matter how strong the impulse is, it sounds like you need to wait.

I am not trying to be patronizing or condescending: I would just hate to see someone put themselves at the mercy of the world like it seems you may be about to.

Darknet Diaries is so good! I love his show.

Like VPNs. Pretty simple.

Downside is it will push teens to free VPNs and those are almost always malicious.

Absolutely assinine regulatory decision brewed by people that do not understand how the world or people work at all.

enshitification of everything intensifies

Oof that bad huh? I had considered getting it if goes on sale in the future just to see if it is as bad as people say but…damn.

How come? I don’t have a stake in it, I’m just curious any time someone has a strong opinion on an instance, especially since I just joined .world and never looked back/around.

I don’t know if I could get it on while watching Wormtongue

You’re telling me I’ve missed the fact that this came out for two years? Wow, I’m more oblivious than I realized

Ubuntu but with an Arch wallpaper? You madman

Uh no Israel are the good guys. They told me so.
