Thank you for setting this up! :)

Honestly I’m starting to understand hermits. I have to accept that I’ve become a digital hermit.

Good mention! I also use Aegis for 2FA. Such a good FOSS app as well!

My journey was similar. I went even further and have been figuring out and adding to my keepass all the credentials I never saved anywhere. Mostly to delete the accounts but I’ll have the history in my keepass trash bin!

I personally love KeePass. I use KeePassXC on desktop, KeePassDX on my phone and use my cloud provider to sync the KeePass database file.

I get my leather shoes from https://gea-waldviertler.at/shop/schuhe

Made in Lower Austria and absolutely love them. Their style is not for everyone, but I absolutely love mine.

Just a headsup: I just crossposted this and am not the original poster :) wanted to share this here since I know there are lots of eyes on this community and many of us are thinking about fairphone as our next phone.

But sadly as @Dequei said already: grapheneOS only works on pixel phones :(

Awesome! Glad to hear! :)

Seems like lemmy.wtf posts are up again, can you login today?

That’s very possible! I mean as a user I also do like stability (had to instance hop quite a few times when I joined fediverse due to them shutting down) but also see resiliency and strenght in being able to spin up an instance of a platform we are all familiar with. When people leave reddit they don’t have similar alternatives with many users, but on lemmy/piefed we can always migrate and stay on the same platform with different rules and administrators.

Of course that’s simplifying the whole topic, but I’m not that worried about fediverse. But you are right of course that for new users who are on the edge already this might be a big dealbreaker. That’s why I always suggest bigger instances first. Once you are comfortable with fedi/threadiverse you can migrate to a smaller instance (I did exactly that once I figured out how this all works). I know lemm.ee shutting down probably made a noticable chunk of people give up on fediverse because we didn’t see any instance completely fill the void that lemm.ee’s weekly activity left.

This topic has had a lot of discussion, but backup plans are good indeed. Lemmy.wtf is small though, so I wouldn’t worry about it and I believe Meldrik is coming back :) what happened with feddit.de was tragic. I wonder if they ever found out what happened to the admin.

Just pinged @[email protected] on matrix. Seems like he’s been away from lemmy (or just not commenting) for a week.

Edit: was made aware that he’s away right now unfortunately :( hope he returns soon and resolves the issue!

That would be awesome!

Since the page doesn’t have about or info page I’ll add the link to the repo of threadiverse.link: https://github.com/RikudouSage/lemmyverse.link

I thought lemsha.re stopped working - guess not, that’s good news! And such a cool feature by the dev with the voyager link. Haven’t tried that feature out yet (voyager is my personal favourite lemmy app).

Ah must remember wrong or maybe it was proposed!

Yeah the software would need to know, but in a way “lemmy” knows because it knows which instances your instance is federating with. If your instance isn’t federating with the link target it cant find it anyway.

Same as the ! Exclamation mark for communities or @ for users it can do a look up (you can put my link to your search input in lemmy and it will find it), but there would be otherways to achieve this too.

But yeah it would be really nice to have some universal way like the ! And @ signs to point to another fedi post/comment.

No problem, I feel like fedistuff is so scattered and hidden that it’s always worth mentioning your favourite tools :)

The frontends and apps do redirect embedded links in comments no? E.g. if you click this it should automatically use your instance to find the comment (even though its a link to my instance): https://sopuli.xyz/comment/17606535

Or maybe you mean when you paste an url to the browser that it should automatically redirect to your instance? If so thats tad bit difficult. There was once a post that proposed something like a activityPub/lemmy URI scheme where links would look like this:

activitypub://<postorcommentidentifier>

But I don’t remember where that conversation led and also I have no idea how feasible that would be.

Edit: added words

I agree with the other answers here, however if you share the link to another fediuser outside of the platform (e.g matrix) I really like sharing with threadiverse.link.

Edit: an example using your post with threadiverse link (used my local instance to copy the post): https://threadiverse.link/sopuli.xyz/post/29845043

You set your instance once into the cookies and it will always redirect to yours.

I’ve been carefully optimistic about this - even if ecosia and qwant decide to start heavily serve ads it still means we have an alternative which will supplement privacy focused frontends and metasearch engines.
