  • Yes for all except youtube. I use frontends there. LBRY when feasible and there’s not a lot of content creators on PeerTube at least we got “The Linux Experiment”. PeerTube needs a monetization model imo (benefiting content creators and instance hosters). I wouldn’t mind paying a low fee for watching content for instance.




  • Personally waiting for the shiftphone 8. Fairphone 5 is also a possibility if you value ethics. These should be less bloated than most I believe. The pixel is nicer than most mainstream phones. As it just comes with the vendor who made Android and their proprietary bs instead of yet another layer. The best way to eliminate bloat is a custom rom. Pixel supports GrapheneOS and I believe all of them will be supported by CalyxOS. (They made a build for the newest released shiftphone)

    Well someones gotta go first. Nah, I’m kidding and I get it. I tried it myself with Snapchat and Discord and it was a very slow and tedious process. But I got it done. Migrated to SMS for the people that refused to adopt a new platform and since SMS is …quite bad it does get easier to convince once you’re there. Feel somewhat guilty for bothering people but I sure don’t miss the old platforms. Good riddance.






  • To be more mainstream granted it isn’t because of a shitty locked down distro incompatible with the others.

    What I love most abou Linux is its freedom. It doesn’t try screwing me over for their own benefit, gives me full control of the system and is broken down into components. Having the underlying system foss for many is great to provide and make it easier to adopt more ethical software for computing.


  • FlokiNET is what I use. They’re a bit more expensive than most (at least they don’t do the whois bs) but private (also based in Iceland which is a privacy plus) and do accept Monero. They’re not open-source and I do not know any that is but do utilize a good few open-source services. Great support and no bs so far. I’d recommed Njalla if even more privacy is worth the risk of losing your domain lease as it is made in their name.
