Gooey0210,

Sounds like a book of Victor Pelevin

Gooey0210,

Tbh, last year i started downloading and reading books more often(or at all)

And if i would have downloaded anything before i would do it from library websites, but since the last year i started doing it from tackers

Gooey0210,

To say even more correctly “license”

If you have a “license” game, you would absolutely mention it in a conversation about the game

So, like if a russian person is talking about a game and doesnct mention that this is a “license” game, then it’s pirated

Gooey0210,

Probably the bigger issue is the centralization of the internet

If we would have some more decentralized way of consuming content, then it would be harder to censor or control it

The internet nowadays is essentially just google, facebook, and pornhub

So applying a rule you can just target one company which will comply anyway because this is communism

Gooey0210,

If you’re paying by your bank card you basically provide them with your id, and phone number, and everything else

Same with crypto if you don’t buy it the right way

If you have 1tb+ of data you can get a cheaper option just by moving to hetzner (also, even storj is cheaper than backblaze)

Gooey0210, (edited )

Why not just using app pinning?

Also, there are some other apps, or even launchers that can do this

Gooey0210,

Ah, sorry, i misunderstood, i thought you’re looking for something on android, plus optionally desktop, sorry, sorry, sorry 🙏

Gooey0210,

SimpleX gang here 🤔

Gooey0210,

Let’s create awesome open source Or awesome alternatives

It’s really weird that there’s no one already made it

Gooey0210,

Oh, this is exactly it

Gooey0210,

Since i started using nixos i don’t have any problems with nextcloud 🙃

Gooey0210,

In nixos you almost never use any “self” thing

You update everything with your whole system at once

Even the installed apps, the true nixos way to install them is through the configuration file

Gooey0210,

Hetzner is more affordable, but few locations

But they can ban you on registration too, happened to me and i was angry 😂

Me vs my ISP

So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It’s concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you....

Gooey0210,

It would be better to have a cheap vps for the same purpose

It’s like the same cloudflare, but with more control

How safe is self-hosting a public website behind Cloudflare?

I work in tech and am constantly finding solutions to problems, often on other people’s tech blogs, that I think “I should write that down somewhere” and, well, I want to actually start doing that, but I don’t want to pay someone else to host it....

Gooey0210,

Can i ask you to elaborate on this part

Assume at all times that the box is toxic waste and that is an entry point into your network. Leave it isolated. No port forwards, you already have tunnels for that, don’t use it for DNS don’t use it for DHCP, Don’t allow You’re network users or devices to see ARP traffic from it.

I used to have a separate box, but the only thing it did was port forwarding

Specifically i don’t really understand the topology of this setup, and how do i set it up

Gooey0210,

Thank you for your reply, but i actually was asking about the network stuff 😅

I used to use cloudflare tunnels for many years, now i’m a bit too tin foiled to use any cloudflare 😅

Gooey0210,

(I just noticed i replied to your another comment, but still to you 😬)

Now i’m a little bit confused, what does it do then?

If the box doesn’t have access to anything on the network, how would it do anything?

Gooey0210,

I mean, what does it host if the only thing it has access to is the internet?

Gooey0210,

Lenovo thinkcentre m710q 🫡

Gooey0210,

This is like the only right answer

Gooey0210, (edited )

There’s gos’ camera already preinstalled, no need to download anything 🫣

They discourage fdroid because it’s not very secure, until it ever gets better

There’s the secure Accrescent, but it has almost no apps in it

(Yeah, but actually you can just use obtainium, this is probably the future)

Gooey0210,

I’m a little bit too late 🤪

I personally don’t use anything of google, browsing and trying apps from fdroid, and have obtainium for the ones I usually use

But Graphene’s approach is all about security, and privacy only after it So they recommend the most secure options first, and don’t recommend minor options So, their current opinion on fdroid that it’s less secure than googlag’s store, so a more secure option would be googlag, or that second store that has 3 apps in it

But it’s for “marketplace” apps, so obtainium not in the scope, but kinda should be (we just need to rethink where we get our apps from)

Gooey0210,

Everything is way overpriced

Why would somebody need to pay $10 for an email?

Why would one hire a developer when you’re a developer yourself?

Why would one use amazon buckets when they are overpriced?

Domain names from ~$15, since when?

And the offshore servers, you can find those for even cheaper and more powerful than $5 (or many cores and 16gb ram for $5)

Also, why would you pay for jenkins when you can host it or something similar?

Gooey0210,

Some people say it’s your IP, but actually IP is rarely used for tracking

On the way to privacy there are some things you should know:

  1. Companies know who are your friends, especially if you communicate on the same messaging apps, etc
  2. Also they have your location
  3. And it seems like apps and Instagram are always listening (so if you say “pizza, pizza, pizza, I really like pizza, I really want to buy pizza now around me” you will get an ad with pizza)
