    Thanks for giving me a shot at a woke moment now

    That was racist. There is nothing wrong with worshiping Olympian gods. You are a right-wing-conservative-republican-christian-homophobic-misogonistic-white-supremacist-rapper-patriarch.

    Lol, I honestly don’t know how woke people manage to find all this crap on any comments, and you just saw me try 🤣🤣🤣









  • Yes, I tried Immich but it’s basically a second job, no thanks. Photoprism is very good, but would need something like Syncthing to auto upload. So I ended up going with Libre Photo. It’s nowhere near as powerful as Immich in terms of features, but for my over 500K photos and almost 50K videos, works like a charm in ProxMox with the “UhuruPhotos” Android app.








  • That’s the idea, and now that I’ve written 2 articles, it’s a bit time consuming. I want to do 2 - and 3 posts per week, and absolutely planning on adding tutorials and suggestions that have worked for me, as well as lists of alternatives to mainstream software and hardware.

    The blog is extremely raw in terms of design, and I will be getting a new domain soon to separate it from my personal life as well. I sent you the link via DM.


  • That’s been my main debate. I didn’t think of that possibility,but it makes sense. Adding those buttons would go completely against what I’m trying to share in my blog.

    I’ll start researching FOSS options to add a way to auto post links like you mentioned. Since I haven’t used any of them in years, does anyone know if I would need to create a user in each of them? I’d probably do it with the blog’s name, not personal if it comes to that.



  • In all honesty, I believe it falls on each of us to educate as much people as possible in the actual dangers of mass surveillance and what are the potential options to minimize it’s impact.

    For example, I’ve been advocating for privacy within my family, friends and other acquaintances for years now. Only recently have I managed to get my wife to start caring (some fearmongering was required) and have gotten a friend from church already on track to eliminating Google, Crapple, mainstream social networks and even self hosting. Some people at work have been reaching out to ask me how they can start moving away from the big tech overreach, and now even my kids have gotten their friends on Simplex, which have made some of their parents move to it as well.

    Again, it’s taken me over 7 years to manage this little, but it’s something. If all of us keep doing this, avoiding getting to the point of annoying others (though I’ve annoyed quite a few persons with this, but whatever) more and more people will start moving in that direction.

    Just getting some people to change from chrome to brave, which is one of the easiest things to do without making them change their streamlines, or move to Signal from SMS and WhatsApp, is already making headway.

    If we get tired and stop preaching security, the surveillance wins. At least that’s how I see it.
