otter,

Since they’re not making them anymore, what might be the next best thing in the future? Anything to look forward to?

otter,

A key one is batteries

Dell, and other brands, sometimes have it so the device will reject all third party batteries. It has to be one made by Dell.

Meanwhile they stop selling the battery for older devices, which is usually when you need one of those batteries.

otter,

There was a Lemmy post with a video about how things have changed, which I even commented on, but I can’t find anymore.

What I remember was that yes they did address most of the concerns. There were some issues still (unrelated to data collection iirc), and there’s one other fork that’s being maintained if you don’t want that

Edit: I think the was the video, I don’t want to watch it again but I’ll link my TLDW if I find it: m.youtube.com/watch?v=QfmDn1IaDmY

otter,

otter,

That’s not what they asked though, they’re already using Firefox and they don’t intend to drop it

otter,

Who’s the artist for this one?

I love it, would like to read more but the name is a little blurry

otter,

I didn’t think to use that, thanks :)

otter,

I assumed that the people over in the DataHoarder communities had archives running this whole time. There’s probably data out there somewhere, it’s a matter of getting it into a usable hosted state

otter,

Do you have any recommendations on which ones to go with?

Black Friday is coming up and I’ve wanted to try too

otter,

Garbage answer:

Garbage collection and general management. It’s nice that we don’t dump our waste outside our homes anymore.

otter,

thanks! forgot to add those

otter,

Depending on where you’re located, instagram is also pretty good to get things going. Making a short graphic for each article should be a nice balance. You COULD make a reel/story/tiktokVideo for more engagement, but personally I’d avoid a creator doing stuff like that.

I’d say, in order:

  • Mastodon page
  • RSS feed
  • Instagram account
  • Facebook page
