Pobodies nerfect....

And soft lock yourself… log in to the DNS portal you need 2FA from your email… while your email is having DNS issues lol

Wish more creators would move to Nebula. I joined on Grady from Practical Engineering's recommendation. His stuff is great.

I haven't quite figured out how to use PeerTube yet.

Self hosting an email server is a pain in the ass and I don't really recommend it.

Buying your own domain and using it in whatever email provider you want is very easy and gives you ownership over the email address. You may switch providers freely without needing anyone else to do anything.

Didn’t try to host a domain myself yet, but having it set up with Proton has given me zero problems thus far.

No, not I don’t self host my email which is where a lot of the trouble comes from

I don’t remember having any issues with it ever. That was a concern so I did slowly transition to the custom domain

Furrysmurfporn.ai is available

Whatever name fits your fancy. Go with solid registrars like Namecheap or cloudflare.

Once you get your domain, you can use most any email provider to handle mail for that domain. Fastmail is really good. Or proton if you want the encryption.

Get something on .com or .net. Vanity tlds will piss off reputation services. And make sure you set up spf/dkim

They are also way too small in terms of storage given that they don’t support external cards (Apple is similar). Google/Apple definitely want buyers to also buy their subscription storage services or pay the high premium for the next storage level.

I’m on an XR right now and it feels older, but still very much usable. I wish companies offered options to only get security patches instead of having to buy new phones every few years, that’s the 1 thing I hope Google keeps around and doesn’t walk back in the future.

The cost of buying a pixel is the only thing stopping me. I don't have enough to replace my aging phone with much of anything, let alone a pixel.

What do the other two do better?

Used phones: exist

Users who constantly repost this same comment: "doesn't look like anything to me."

I'm running lineage os on a Motorola moto g7 power (2019) Android 15 runs fine on a 6 year old phone.

"work" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here when talking about a Fairphone. Worst phone I ever owned with quite some margin.

Really? What's your favorite custom ROM for modern iPhones?

Let's hope so.

What's next, Open source electric car? Building and living in an Earth Ship?

He'll be crawling around xmpp chatrooms talking about anarchists soon.

Is it though? I never paid any attention to him, so I only know that one time he made some kids make a sign with heil Hitler or something like that (which from what I've read was just a joke in bad taste, he isn't a nazi or major racist). Otherwise, I haven't heard anything bad about him, he was just never someone I cared to know more about and watch, seemed to be mostly for kids. Please, correct anything I've said if I'm wrong.

I was just thinking about this: more evidence of the Minecraft to Linux self hosting pipeline.

The programming socks will be the first sign.

He got backlash from his own fans from all edgy and toxic jokes. I remember some of his Indian fans are angry for his PewDiePie vs T-series stuff (T-series: Indian music company).

I think around 2019, he apologized and recognized all the edginess he did, and promised to do better.

For the last five years, all of his content are basically wholesome family stuff or creative activities. Even his recent art journey video are widely shared among young art communities that's not even his fans.

I really don't get how so many people here are so happy that a Nazi is using Linux and doesn't like Google anymore. That's not the kind of clown I'd want representing or being a spokesperson for my interests and it's really making me second guess the people here.

Edit: @nasi_goreng@lemmy.zip 's comment has provided info I didn't have, and recontextualizes the attitudes here I wasn't understanding, so now I get why there's support for this.

Didn't realize the N word was family friendly lol

All I know is they took down the ones by LTT and Jeff Geerling, I can only assume it was due to the larger audience those two attracted. Now imagine PewDiePie...

I just use down sub to pull the transcript from his video It's only 60% as annoying.

He has the normal privacy versus cost worries which are reasonably valid. Then he rambles on, plugs a product that he's shilling that's unrelated to the subject matter, says he's replacing Google search with a local LLM, does some hot takes on alternatives, does some reasonable takes on some alternatives.

To be honest, this is probably the least helpful de-googling video I've seen, other than the fact that he's a major influencer and is telling everyone they should be doing it.
