What do you see as the main [09:21] Techrights-sec disadvantages? Certainly there would be more time available for more productive [09:21] Techrights-sec activities. [09:22] schestowitz-TR I have just spent 5-10 mins checking what tuxmachines gets from twitter in terms of impressions etc. The assumption many make is that without presence in such sites you lose visibility, relevance etc. [09:22] *psydroid4 has quit (connection closed) [09:36] schestowitz-TR i will do a viodeo related to this [09:36] schestowitz-TR ota ● Feb 10 [10:10] schestowitz-TR will write the tgext now [10:32] *psydroid2 (~psydroid@cqggrmwgu7gji.irc) has joined #boycottnovell [10:50] schestowitz-TR can you pls check the draft to see if there are some [10:50] schestowitz-TR important point/s I left out? [10:50] schestowitz-TR I expect some JD users will ready it and can maybe step up to help ● Feb 10 [11:30] Techrights-sec ack [11:30] Techrights-sec checking [11:30] Techrights-sec s/broken next month/broken by next month/ [11:30] Techrights-sec s/Ive just three accounts/I've already gone through three accounts because .../ [11:30] Techrights-sec yes, self-hosting *is* the way forward, yet fewer and fewer these days know [11:30] Techrights-sec anything about computers and fewer still can actually use them. No, flicking [11:30] Techrights-sec fingers passively at a read-only display is not using ICT. [11:30] Techrights-sec s/upfront/up front/ [11:36] schestowitz-TR I do not know anything about theirinfra (yet) [11:36] schestowitz-TR I have just added one more paragraph and illustration, take a quickm look, it is [11:36] schestowitz-TR at the very bottom [11:37] Techrights-sec ack [11:37] Techrights-sec Good point about how easy it is to self-host Gemini and, maybe, WWW. However for [11:37] Techrights-sec the latter to be both safe and easy it is necessary to stick to CSS+HTML and [11:37] Techrights-sec exchew fancy CMS tools. Static site generators will meet the need of most.

[19:10] Techrights-sec I thought you might have ordered the HDMI-VGA adapter in the same shipment? [19:11] schestowitz-TR I wanted to first be sure we have the right monitor assignments around here, and tbh I rarely use a screen on the old pi, rianne could do triple head, but no place to put all that [19:16] schestowitz " [19:16] schestowitz @roy Nice writeup. Me as well we lost our accounts at Identica. I literally had a complete community of FOSS people from India there with connections as well. [19:16] schestowitz Now I still have memories of the same FOSS community of India as well as europe hidden inside those thousands of comments in my profile and others posts. Will I loose all of them, I am afraid thats happening. [19:16] schestowitz I wish they make this atleast something like Read only pod and some of us can donate to it.
