Most of the “looks” come from the compositor (picom) and the bar.

I call my desktop loseldoom but my servers are fugit and opti :P

occ files:scan --all (or something like that)

I’m like you pretty new to all of this, but one thing I now is that you shouldn’t use steamunlocked. (It is discouraged on the megathread)

When I had reddit (deleted a few years ago), I posted a screenshot of my android launcher, and someone pointed out that I was using google apps, and said “protect your privacy”, he gave me some resources and that’s where it all clicked for me. What a nice guy.

I read the full blog post from the linked blog of a sysadmin there, and it was worth the read, what a ride.

It’s a piped frontend, so only piped accounts. (Piped is a frontend for YouTube)

Bonus: Instance and community

Decentralization is king here

Linux mint is in my opinion the best distro for a new user, but you may personally not be fond of the UI.

I don’t know how to write a guide for you, but if you have more specific questions feel free to ask them, best of luck!

A shower thought is not simply “a thought you have in the shower”, it is actually written in the sidebar:

Miniature epiphanies you have that highlight the oddities within the familiar.

That’s why folks will reply with “not a shower thought”, and I agree with them.

I also have a 240hz but it works fine? I’ve never heard of this, although I still hate the nvidia drivers for many things

Fair enough

I mean… That’s what the webui I deployed has, the “guest mode login”, but it still makes those http requests to their servers :/

I managed to selfhost the web interface, but I encountered an issue that I don’t think I can fix…

I used this docker run command (not compose yet, just testing)

docker run -it --rm --name stremio-web -p 8080:8080 node:alpine sh -c """ apk add git git clone https://github.com/stremio/stremio-web --depth 1 cd stremio-web npm install npm run build npm install -g http-server http-server build/ -p 8080 -d false """

And I can reach the web ui. Now I can go into the settings page and set the backend url, which works perfectly. But when I go to the discover page nothing loads because it wants to reach stremio’s own servers.

Note: To access my selfhosted services I use a firefox profile that doesn’t have access to the internet, to be able to fully seflhost my stuff, that’s why the connection to their servers is blocked.

Is there a way to proxy these remote connections from the backend or am I just lost at this point?

Aye, thank you!

I want one so bad but I don’t know what wattage I should get for it

That’s how the internet works, a ping is not an issue for my privacy and my threat model

I have been running Immich since v1.1 to this day, and it has been flawless

You’re objectively wrong. You can have a fully free and open source android rom without any spyware (not even from google) and be free, and I also use Piped for watching youtube because I don’t have a google account. Check out privacy communities on lemmy.

Edit: And about getting rid of all tech, of course you can’t be 100% independent and have 100% privacy, but you can mitigate most of it if you know what you’re doing.
