As someone else has pointed out, it really depends on your use case. Although I personally keep my drives (SSD & HDD) in a redundant RAID configuration as my data is largely mission-critical.

I’m using an Invidious instance.

If I still used YT’s main front-end, this would’ve been great.

An issue was submitted https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore/-/issues/917

No problem! :)

Have you looked into Nextcloud?

Nice! Glad to hear things worked out for you!

Not only is it likely, it’s pretty much guaranteed that a bot will scrap your network if it’s opened to the public.

No problem :)

I’ve never used Friendica, so I’m honestly not sure. Maybe this could be related to the ipv6 issue that the instance hoster would need to fix.

Oh! Hmm, I’ve never run into that issue before. Although I have noticed on some instances it works faster and more reliable than others.

Are you on an Apple product, since that could be related to the “iCloud’s Private Relay” issue, since you’re getting a 502 error?

Following communities could be another issue entirely, sometimes you have to subscribe then unsubscribe multiple times in order to get it to work.

It’s quite sad to see subreddits going back to public. I knew that it was only supposed to last 48 hours, but I honestly wouldn’t have minded if they went dark forever.

I wonder if someone has already created a bot that asks chat-GPT to create a piece of code, grabs it to try and run it, and then just goes back and forth with chat-GPT to fix the errors. Now the code would probably be a complete mess, but I wonder if non-coders could use it to create helpful one-off tools they can’t find anywhere else.

It’s Microsoft’s browser hopefully this shouldn’t be a shock to anyone.

Oh I’m sorry to hear that, if you don’t mind me asking are you on Android or IOS?

As far as anti-privacy here’s an example https://gizmodo.com/apple-iphone-analytics-tracking-even-when-off-app-store-1849757558

And in regards to mainstream alternatives:

• Calyx OS
• Graphene OS
• Lineage OS

No problem :)

To get the point since as you’ve stated your brain is filled.

Here’s how I view Apple:

• anti consumer
• anti developer
• anti privacy
• anti right to repair
