I used to be excited about new tech and new gadgets.
-
@Em0nM4stodon Getting more of that new tech/gadget feel from the #homelab community lately. The idea of hosting more stuff in my house without all the surveillance and AI crap is sounding like a great idea.
@shawnhooper @Em0nM4stodon Same!
With Yunohost and similar tools it's easier for people to take back control of their data, apps and services, media libraries, etc.
Linux is getting stronger, better and easier to use. Not only for desktops,but gaming devices such as steam deck and -box.
Mobile linux still has a long way to go, but the progress is really promising.
Keet, Briar, Jami and other apps demonstrates the power of peer to peer and local first.
There's plenty to be excited about!

@Em0nM4stodon I cling to the belief that it all is phase that will fade away.
Too bad I'll be long dead when it does. -

@shawnhooper @Em0nM4stodon with a slight cost of all your time sanity and money.... Worth it thought

@watchfulcitizen @Em0nM4stodon Great. I don’t have much of any of those, so…. Worth it!

@stovis @shawnhooper @Em0nM4stodon All kinds of great options out there to play with until it's time to connect them. Are there any Yunotrunklines or LibreISPs? A crowd sourced alternative to Starlink? Always seem to be playing in someone's pond if not sandboxed at home.

@Em0nM4stodon Agree

@stovis @Em0nM4stodon I hadn't seen Yunohost yet. I'm likely starting down the Proxmox/Docker rabbit hole since I'm already familiar with containers at work.
-
@Em0nM4stodon I wonder if the generations before us went through a similar development, just with different kinds of enshittification.
-
Mullvad browser is new tech.
meet.nixnet.services/b
bitchat.free / Briar / SimpleX
Etc. -

@shawnhooper @stovis @Em0nM4stodon I think that is the better way indeed. I tried Yunohost but it installs everything in the main system which limited me a bit compared to doing containers. Using podman now.

@TheNovemberManOh, honey, you need more #SpaceNews in your life. There's all sorts of crazy stuff going on.

For new devices, I'm always searching through vetted makers and artists. The electronics from major brands all now have a direct network link to Palantir ICE Technologies or their 1173 AI datacenter partners.

@Em0nM4stodon This summarizes my shifting views on tech perfectly.
