Fun Fact: My smartphone is turned off 95% of the time or so. I only turn it on when I have a specific need for a specific function. The overwhelming vast majority of my activities are on desktop systems, using native code or browsers where the invasive permissions of common mobile apps are generally not present. REMEMBER: The reason so many websites push you to use their mobile apps is that the iOS and Android permission environments provide vastly more opportunities for the collection of your personal data.
The mod team are saddened by yesterday's incident at Bondi Beach, and our thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones. It is timely to remind everyone to use content warnings. In addition, refrain from sharing news from non reputable sources, or broadcasting ill informed opinions and offensive memes. Be mindful that people are falsely identifying offenders, with one innocent person already experiencing doxxing. Aus.social does not give a platform for anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, racism or bigotry. Be kind to each other.
Has anyone here attempted running Friendica in FrankenPHP or similar? Was curious if the extra effort was worth any noticeable performance improvement. Thanks!
Starting to get the itch to re-do my server, as this is the year Ubuntu 20.04 LTS loses support. Was thinking TrueNAS but wanted a little more freedom with lower ports. Now thinking about using #ZFSBootMenu on Alpine as a host for converting most everything to #docker :
I suppose my old #wifi PCI-E adapter on my desktop shot craps. Worked up the gumption to run ethernet to that that and my TV. Speed on the desktop went from 4 Mbps down to 878 Mbps! 🤯 #firstworldjoys
Thought I'd write an #introduction for all those #newhere from the Musk exodus:
I'm an analytical chemist. I've hosted my own #Friendica node (instance) at my home since 2018, shortly after the Cambridge Analytica scandal. From there, I got bit by the #selfhosting bug and am now hosting my own #opensource replacements for many FAANG services.
Welcome all to the #fediverse ! If you are thinking about self-hosting and have questions, would be happy to help as able! #introductions
