  • Contabo and NetCup are really cheap. But only if you use their shared VPS option. If you are lucky the CPU steal is low.

  • I sirt it manually. I just rip a CD, edit its metadata with MusicBrainz Picard then place all the MP3's in a folder for just the book and then move it to the folder of the author.

    Once scanned by audiobookshelf I modify the metadata a bit more and then let audiobookshelf combine the book to one file.

  • GrapheneOS probably won't. Their main dev literally jokes about the phones security. While GrapheneOS was originally made for Pixels.

  • Probably welcoming, not every Reddit employee stands behind the decisions made by their management.

    If they enjoy to browse Lemmy more then Reddit it doesn't automatically make them unloyal to their job or a enemy of Lemmy.

  • /e/OS it is degoogled but most of the "Google" applications have been replacedby great opensource alternatives or adapted. The app store still allows us to install apps from the playstore but anonymously.

  • I use duplicacy to backup to my local NAS and to Storj.io. In case of a fire I'm always able to restore my files. Storj.io is cheap, easy to access from any location and your files are stored and duplicated on multiple different locations.

  • Great! It is important for the existence of Lemmy that there is no central server.

    Here are the other links:

  • By having an actual policy. That lists the usage of data, 3rd parties and the responsibilities of the instance owner.

  • What a journalistical mistake, you can't directly compare a group of countries with a single country. In this case fallen behind means in money. Which is quite a bad assumption.

  • The Netherlands/ASML has no choice. The US is threathening NL with trade allegation, because the US fears the Chinese's technical advances.

  • Well, you joined the most overcrowded Lemmy instance. Its administrators a currently working on it. But they didn't expect this many users.

    In the meantime I recommend joining smaller instances. Which are able to handle the load. Like my own instance :).

  • Well, Windows isn't that popular in the computer scene. Linux is by far more popular for servers, IoT devices (payment terminals, heartrate monitors...) and critical systems. But Windows has an edge in the PC scene. But to be honest a Apple Mac is also in the formfactor PC. These charts are always way of, just because their definition and monitoring techniques are not trustworthy.

    The problem with Linux: it is opensource and free, and everyone can rebrand it. But at the same time everyone wants to make a euro out of it. There are a lot of companies that misuse its license by closing the source.

  • Audiobookshelf is da bomb! You are going to have a great time while installing it, using it and sharing it with friends and family.

    If you need help just send me a DM.

  • The top three instances a currently overcrowded. I recommend checking out a smaller instance (for example https://laguna.chat).

    Smaller instances are still able to access to same content. But it is just a different server that processes the content.

  • Page loads are snappy and lightning fast at laguna.chat :). Open signups and open for new communities. Hosted in Germany and GDPR ready. https://laguna.chat

  • First of all, I'm not a lawyer or a legal consultant, just a instance admin that wants to make sure that his instance complies.

    Lemmy does not store any PII (birthdates, legal names, addresses,securitynumbers). But users are able to share whatever they want. And that can be a problem.

    Check out my instances legal page: https://Laguna.chat/legal

    In the future I want to make sure that my instances content can only be shared by GDPR respecting instances.

  • As a truth seeker myself and a lover of data visualisation I love it. I would gladly join a community like that.

  • It sounds like you are looking for a community that show cool visualizations based on scientific data. The idea of the community is more about the practicioning of data science. But I like the idea of a fact check visualisation channel.

  • Hi @Gerryflap, there seem to be some federation issues between my instance and lemmy.world's instance. I will try to prefetch the communities using my lemmy.world account.

  • Fairphone 4 running /e/OS. I love the modularity, quality and robustness. Just the fact that if I drop my screen I can just replace it for €80 using my own hands.

    /e/OS is still in development, which you sometimes notice, but I love its privacy focused aspects. It is decoupled from Google, includes a tracker monitor and blocker, an appstore that can download apps from the Google Play store anonymously and best of all the developers do deliver. All their releases are well tested.

    The only thing I struggle with are in app purchases. If they use the Google Play platform they just won't work.

    I bought this phone from Murena, which is a branch of the /e/Foundation that sells devices with /e/OS preinstalled.
