Damn, someone beat me to it!

Yeah, that’s the part I’m having trouble with. Can’t decide on something serious, easy to communicate and that I like. Definitely a me problem.

I have a domain and an email address through it, but my problem is I can’t find a domain name I like enough to both keep and give out to others as a long term contact point. The one I have right now is silly, and not easy to communicate over the phone.

It’s a me problem, but if I ever figure out something I’m will to keep and is available, that’s the goal.

I’ll probably go with one of the other roms on an older phone or possibly one of the Linux phones. It won’t be exactly what I want, but it’ll be better than their walled garden bullshit. That’s precisely why I left Apple way back when.

Do it! It’s not that bad. Everyone’s got different needs, but I switched to fastmail and have been enjoying it.

Seconded on do it. It’s a lot better than it was even a few years ago.

The Fediverse is “hard” because you have to pick a server. And that’s apparently enough to stop normies from going any further.

I got mine recently in a dxent aized city and while there are plenty of nodes popping up on the map, the local channel is pretty quiet. Is that normal?

Agreed. New users often either go Ubuntu or Linux Mint because they’re well known, but really aren’t the best options out there anymore.

Hundreds have already fallen out of orbit this year alone.

But just think how blazing fast the speeds will be! When they’re hurtling out of orbit and crashing into your house!

I love this. Thank you for the recommendation!

I’ve been wanting a Linux-based degoogled phone for a while now, and though it sorta exists if you happen to have the right phone model, it definitely isn’t ready for the everyday consumer. But if it’s something you really want to do, there are a few options out there. I’ve done the best I can from not using the google ecosystem at all beyond android, which is my last big hurtle.

Ugh, so what’s the alternative?

Apparently Elon hates it when you call them swasticars, so definitely do not do that.
