Wayland is the future, but not quite the present yet 😅

Keepass (Windows) + Keepass2Android + Nextcloud has ben my winning combo for years. Recently switched to a Linux desktop and went with KeepassXC: still happy, except for Wayland not letting you AutoType (should be solvable though, but I lost interest at "reinstall X.org"...)

Used to be British, got bought 😢

Thanks for the heads-up 👍

It has been a few weeks since we started this, which European email provider have you switched to? in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Off Gandi since they got bought and jacked up all prices a couple years ago. Galae.net (France) is working well.

I disagree with his choice to not name the place. Fot starters, I would like to know where not to go eat. Also, those people shaming him will basically get no consequence out of their hateful behaviour, so they will not learn. Loss of revenue would have been a great way to drive the point home.

Register to vote for the General Election in c/uk_politics@feddit.uk

Congratulations on you foresight, and for acting on it!

I was abroad in the last GE. I received my postal ballot a few weeks before election days. Just follow the notice and return it timely, and you're golden!

If you are worried, you can contact the Council where you registered, they might be able to provide a timeline.

Remember when Gchat was federated with XMPP, and the federation was dropped when it wasn't serving Google's needs anymore?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

TL;DR: eating one rich a day keeps climate change away.
