You might want to try this matrix channel:

It's a channel for sim racing, but there are pretty knowledgeable people around that can get all sorts of obscure peripherals working on Linux.

True, I don't pay much attention to the mod log for example, I did not even know it was a thing. I regularly browse my communities and /r/all or whatever the main feet is called. I am here for content that interest me, no matter on what instance it is hosted. I thought that was the whole point of federation.

I honestly don't know what the big fuss is about. I became member of Lemmy.ml a couple of years ago when it was basically the only existing instance if I remember correctly. I've never seen any drama apart from posts like this that claim the admins suck or the users suck. Maybe those claims are even valid, but do they even affect the average user at all? I've considered changing instances even, but it seems rather a lot of effort for a lot of hot air to me.

The scraper blocklist on crowdsec requires a paid subscription, though, or did you find another workaround?

I did exactly that when I switched to Linux a couple of years ago. Took around a week to setup, it runs well enough, but you lose the use of your main gpu under Linux that way. I tried lutris for gaming under linux and quickly realised the games run very well via wine. O in my opinion the qemu windows with gpu passtrough is not really worth the hassle nowadays. All games I tried work just as well via wine/proton.

Imagine if some big influencers like him switched to peertube, that would be quiet a thing indeed.

Thats a problem with silos (where one owner hosts all the servers) in general. You will have to switch the entire ecosystem once the inevitable enshitification sets in. It's a good idea to switch to something open source and federated (where many different non profit organisations and even self hosting individuals host many different servers). That way you can migrate your history and contacts to another server of necessary but never have to switch the ecosystem again. Think it how email works, it's the best known federated system. If you don't like you email provider anymore you can just chose another one and still keep your contacts and messages on a client like Thunderbird forever. Xmpp and matrix are the hottest candidates in my opinion, but you can check the messenger matrix that was linked in a comment above to see what suits you best.

Hier ist für den Anfang schon mal eine Petition auf weact:

I did something very similar via netcup tiny vps, nginx and wireguard. I could post my setup notes tomorrow if someone needs them.

Mit nem Vier-Personen-Hauahalt gehen locker 1-1,5 L Sonnencreme im Jahr drauf.

Bei mir sind es mittlerweile mehrere Dinge, komme mir immer vor wie Loriot in papa ante Portas, wenn ich die Bestellungen aufgebe, aber es ist einfach deutlich günstiger und umweltfreundlicher. Natron als shampooersatz gibts kiloweise bei eBay. Ebenso Magnesia zum klettern. Während corona habe ich 20x1 Liter Desinfektionsmittel bestellt, das gerade abgelaufen war, aber für den Hausgebrauch sicher noch genug Bakterien tötet.

In Australien gabs Sonnencreme im 1L Spender, den fülle ich immer mit kleinen Flaschen vom Discounter nach, totaler quatsch, leider. Aber man bekommt Sonnencreme leider nicht zum nachfüllen, hab nur mal nen Liter für knapp 100 Euro gesehen, was fürn Wahnsinn... In Au was das staatlich subventioniert glaube ich wegen der ganzen Hautkrebs-Erkrankungen, der Liter lag damals unter 10 Dollar...

Your story reminds me of diving a French car for the first time. No knob or lever can be found in the usual spaces and in the end you always end up giving a turn signal when you try to use the windscreen wiper.

I am using the German QWERTZ most of the time and found the layout rather reasonable. I once tried to learn the neo layout which had the most used letters on the middle row, but you really only can use that at home so I stopped after a week or two as it did not really seemed worth the effort.
