How, if at all, do you wish to not comply with Bill C-22 (lemmy.ca)

Please note I said "wish", not "plan". Congratulations, this conversation is now all speculative conjecture and it's legal to talk about.

I have transitioned to GrapheneOS and a Linux distro as my primary OS. Stopped my cloud services and host on my NAS with old ass drives with a lazy man's 3-2-1 backup. If I wanna do something sketchy, imma use Mullvad.

More than that... but I wanna hear from you guys!

I'm on grapheneos. Deleted google, twitch, insta, reddit. Using a janky linnux distro.

Want to learn to self host. But I'm very computer illiterate.

    The best place to start is the bottom, knowing that you know nothing. That lets you approach it with humility and openness.

    I would recommend playing around with things in a virtual machine or getting some old hardware up and running using something super automatic like CasaOS and then getting a few wins out of that. Running on real hardware is good if you can just leave it running and have some basic services you can set up and play with. I would recommend getting Nextcloud up and running as a good start. Have fun!

    Hey if you just wanna get up and running, while I've never tried it personally, some people seem to like YunoHost.

    Before you know it you'll catch the bug and be running Proxmox with unprivileged LXCs or custom docker containers with a reverse proxy and recursive upstream DNS.

    I know that second paragraph is gibberish right now, but if you catch that bug, it won't be anymore! And if you end up sticking with the simple stuff, that's totally valid too!

    Congrats on your journey my friend!
