I’m hoping this brings a larger userbase to Signal, the more users Signal has, the more usable it is and the more likely they’ll get Donationa

It was on an episode of the WAN show a while back (I don’t know which, I stopped watching a while ago). He said if you’re not paying for the service or watching the Ads, it’s the same as Piracy because your not paying what’s owed.

I’ve been using it recently without many issues

Don’t they require smart phones to work though? All the ones I have had are all just BT devices which require a phone to do anything beyond tell the time

May I suggest SpotDL specifically for Spotify: https://github.com/spotDL/spotify-downloader

I work for a web host (UK based). We’re entirely WFH so as long as you can support it yourself you can use it. They don’t care what Distro we use.

I know, I was just tryna point out the silver lining

Atleast it’s future proof

I use revanced:

Revanced manager: https://revanced.app/download

MicroG: https://github.com/revanced/gmscore/releases/tag/v0.3.1.3.240913

I work as a Sysadmin for a web host who sells VPS’s. I’ve helped many people setup domains on their server to cover SPF, DKIM and DMARC passes on a daily basis. Most use these for personal or business level mail delivery without issue.

Are there hurdles to overcome? Sure. But it’s not exactly hard as long as you have a IP that’s isnt a poor reputation (which as an ISP we help delist and improve). But it’s not impossible.

Its more “convenient” to use a third party mail provider just as Office365 since you pass on all that setup and responsibility onto their framework, but it’s not hard to setup a decent level of mail service yourself.

And enable 2fa if it’s not already on

Have you thought about installing a Firefox fork? On my Work PC I use Firefox for work and Floorp for personal browsing.

The silver lining here is that you’d hope that more people will simply adopt Firefox. It’s user share has been too low for too long given how great it is

https://zulip.com/ is likely your best alternative. It’s more a Slack copy than Discord but the features are there

Where’s the flaming sword?

Same. I’ve been looking at AMD upgrade for my Linux Machine. Have been looking at the 6700xt which is about £330 for a 12GB GPU. If someone can think of anything better I’d like to know

I remember I had a TV when I was younger with a coat hanger in the back

Thanks!

It sure is: https://github.com/MajesticTechie/CloudflareDynamicDNS

If this is for DynamicDNS, I host my DNS at cpiudflare for my domain and use a script which performs a lookup every 15 mins. It uses CF’s API to then update the record if it changes.

For DNS resolution, I use pi hole quad9 resolvers

Edit: sorry, just re-read and realised your talking about DNS hosting for a domain. honestly I use my Cloudflare or my domain provider. Given a single IP is a point of failure, it makes sense to have multiple NS on different networks/IPs. You also have to take into account Glue records and while not required, reverse DNS is also good. If you have Dynamic IPs it’s not worth it since glue records will need changing and those are manual each time
