When you rely on a privately owned for-profit corporation for free services, you can't expect much.

centuries, not decades.

This is a difficult topic. Here in Italy the mass migration of the past decade has caused cultural difficulties, as well as some economic fears and resentment. I am myself an immigrant, but not a refugee. I believe in a right to refuge, but also in a responsability to try to assimilate without losing your identity. There is racism here against newcomers, but I find most people are open and welcoming to those that try to be a positive part of the community.

Got this type of setup on my home pc, my laptop has sway/gnome. It's a bit more difficult integrating sway with gnome, still having to use the cli for bluetooth, can't figure out how to have it managed by gnome networking.

You can get a public ip address for it if you want to share/collaborate using noip or similar service and a few minutes setting up your router.

Ahh, that was not stated. My apologies.

No, I do not misunderstand the sub. It is an announcement to maintain a minimum of civility and not be a cowardly troll.

You can try an open source androi, I use e/OS. I only use F-Droid or directly get apks.

Usually in the header there is a contact email. I've found that developers are usually pretty enthusiastic to help you to understand their coding if you get in touch with them. Don't forget to thank them and contribute to the project if you can!

Thanks! It's nothing new to me, but I do take a moment to remind people to be civil. I'm certainly enjoying the Fediverse, the vast majority of people are interesting and nice. For the others, well, I'm not here to get pissed off or pissed on, so the 'block' button comes in handy.

Good read, thanks!

Yeah, getting straight with the new lingo and how things work in federated social media takes a bit of time, but I remember trying to figure out corporate social media when it first caught on, and it's about equal.

I've been gritting my teeth for years over officials using 'free' services that send comprimising data to data-mining companies that sell data to anyone. Privacy and confidentiality my big, hairy, pimple-covered behind.
