  • Pebble Watch Software Is Now 100% Open Source

    Jump

  • Can someone explain this to me. When you setup pebble on this new open source app, does the app connect to the internet? Who controls those servers? Is it rebble or this company LLC that Eric created? Who is server admin?

  • Phone + OS review: Google Pixel 9a and GrapheneOS

    Jump

  • I wanna discuss with you, because this is exactly what I thought... I've gotten almost down to, contacts/email/messengers and then there are a couple apps which does govt id (like 2fa) that don't have desktop version, grayjay, osm, whether, gadget bridge etc.... And that's it. I was wondering if any device with Ubuntu touch could do that. And one interesting thing I wanted to think is that if there is a cm5 (the blackberry raspberry pie thing) that connects to a 5g hotspot for wifi, can I run max things via browser and IP phone....etc.... Would be an interesting experience/ experiment

  • Your help needed: PhD research on why people choose to self-host

    Jump

  • Submitted.

    I am in finance/accounting/consulting and I run one self hosted small server at home to manage my home machines remotely and use it with combo of proton to do most things.

    While I am in the process of de-googleing I haven't self hosted photo or email yet as proton has been working okay for the time being. One step at a time I guess for me... I am not in IT so it requires time for me to read up on things and set them up (rtfm indeed)....(yes we all know what proton CEO said.... )...let's see how it pans out.and this has been quite a journey for me. I am still having issues with family and friends not wanting to use jitsi (that I am using for calls or contact me on signal). I have basically thrown WhatsApp and anything I don't care about within beeper under a work profile (android) I.e. in a sandbox / appimage (laptop).

    Personally if next cloud allowed self hosting with self email hosting (whatever the technical terminology is) that would have been (chef's kiss) muah....I would have jumped on it first hand...

    Sorry I am not in IT so my jargon usage might be sub par.

  • Seeking advice for selfhosting critical data

    Jump

  • Went through the same thing. Paused between Murena (at that time they weren't providing my personal domain / email address solution) and nextcloud, and proton. I went with proton. I could in theory do nexrcloud +proton. You do you.

    And for notes, I went markdown route and obsidian.

  • Is there a way to do this without letting Google know?

    Jump

  • Hold on, I am in the process of moving to proton j and then discontinuing my gmail. But I am clearing out last 15 years of gmail crap before I run the wizard from proton to grab all my gmail mails....I guess there is no other way when you want to close down a gmail account eventually?

  • Is there still no open source alternative to replacing Google Play Services?

  • Look into /e/OS , lineage, and graphene. On the /e/os page, there is a big explanation also on grapahenes documentation page. That helped me a lot.

  • Made Little Progress in Switching from Google, But Stuck on the root of the problem

    Jump

  • I fully switched to fairphone 5 but with proton paid accounts last year.(that was before the hoo hah of their CEO tweets making the rounds). At that time Murena did not support custom domains and I needed that.

    Now the E/is and murenas web apps (running with nextcloud, you can get their cloud instead of nextcloud self host, and use a local drove for backups, (that is what I do).

    That can work really well. Look at their compatible phone list. I flahsed on am old Sony I had and ran parallel with fair phone on Google android and got comfortable moving things. Then flashed eos on fp5 and formatted Sony. Now another family member will repeat the process.

    And for calls and things I am using jitsi and signal.

  • If you're sitting at a light and a cop is behind you and you burn rubber when you take off, but you don't break any other laws is that breaking a law?

    Jump

  • Same question but instead you only use launch control, so no loss of reaction, and don't go over speed limit.... Although the cop would hear the brup, brup, brup, brup.... Braap... Brrraaaap, and you slow down the rpms to not exceed speed limit....

  • Coprporates only understand 10k/10Qs, market caps, and wealth increase for shareholders. So, that's right, quarter on quarter or year on year trend movements will be the only thing because certain EPS is not reached because sales was low, this is the only metric they will understand. I was watching a documentary once and there was a town or group of villages in India somewhere which had made a system to have near zero wastes in their eco system of crops and gardens and they went pretty much self reliant... I was like why can't we do that... I don't know whether that requires lots of research or whatnot.... But if any significant group of people can do that, all of the system will come begging.... On their knees or will try to destroy the doers.

    Jump

  • On the graphene website, I would recommend reading their full "Features" page. It explains a lot.

    In addition also look at /e/os/ as well. I am currently de googling from my primary phone to a secondary phone (on my old phone; I flashed /e/os/ on it. And it have no Google apps. They have micro g integration built in. And I use "shelter" to create a work profile to isolate the apps that are not privacy focussed and they forever live in that sandbox, and you can turn off and on those apps with one click".) Changing my email address to govt/doctors/etc. And backing up data from google account is taking the longest before I disable that completely.
