Cool. Is there anything like this on android? Or desktop?

That sounds like a hilarious idea. GL!

Yes I have a couple friends that can’t live without it, so we have had convos. It’s better to go to Walmart and get the very cheap stuff, but your going to die without it…

You could be the 4rth!

In actuality, most people use social media to lurk and only 1% (made up number but its a small percent) actually post/comment. And even less actually make “content”. I like her videos and I almost always learn something new.

Trust me, I try to get as many peertube creators out there as possible on lemmy. It takes a bit to find. Peertube the software is very capable of serving the videos…but youtube gives them $$ if they succeed on the platform and Peertube gives them freedom. Some people will post to both (I think this is the most pragmatic approach in case you get copyright struck).

google dont like my solution. Everything else works :D Even the spam filter.

Its just not something I want to keep doing myself.

Dang didnt see that! Thanks! Ill take a look.

Remember your local community is one of the most valuable resources. Get to know your neighbors, invest in your social capital.

I remember coming across post in a /r/collapse on reddit that poked fun at a lot of peoples plans. He stated he was in a war torn country and found a lot of plans revolve around personal survivorship instead of community based. And the immediate local community is the one that most people fall back on and the one that often times helps out the most.

Same, someone also added a new battery at some point so I have an awesome weeklong working device. And after rockbox, its even better.

Yeah you don’t want spicy pillows!

Reminds me of the Bitcoin mining and how askii miners overtook graphic card mining practically overnight. It would not surprise me if this goes the same way.

Nice!!

Man I would love that contact :)

I’m personally going to keep my old Casio running til the end of time. But I hope the new watches are repairable, cause I don’t fully trust Google (but rebbel is solid).

I have a similar setup with around 5 federated services (Lemmy/bookwyrm/mastodon(GoToSocial)/pixelfed/Peertube/etc… and it works well. The slowest component is the internet connection by far. Yunohost makes it easy but a couple of the more niche services are on docker. All self hosted on an old PC and a pi.

Just a note, these are all less than 5 users and my setup is not designed for anything more than the family. Also of all the services, Mastodon base install was by far the most resource intensive of all of them. It’s definitely made for more than 100+ users and quite quickly used up all my hard drive. Their caching system needs some work if I’m honest. After self hosting for about half a year, I went with GoToSocial, which saved me 100s of gigabytes. It’s no faster or slower but the same clients work with it. It’s basically designed for less than 10 users which is nice. No issues after about a year.

Nothing. My local area has a lot of chicken in peoples back yards.

Same. I bought one of those ifixit kits and tried to repair mine, but it turns out the wires are very small and I couldnt get everything hooked back in.

I love libre office for quite a bit of the same features.

Not too much. I don’t have specific stats but there’s not much video being shared. We are not at the level where it takes too much bandwidth.

Advice: make sure you deploy the latest version of Lemmy! The newest one solves a lot of federation/backend stuff (hint hint Lemmy.world).

If you have less than 10 or so users, id say go ahead and self host. It’s not terribly resource intensive at least not on my personal instance. I use it to test posts, solutions that will eventually make it’s way into a pr, or just experiments and that can (and does) run on a pi.
