GotoSocial
I’ve now set up an instance of GotoSocial for evaluation in parallel with Mastodon and Friendica.
Having no built-in frontend, and testing out the various options and their compatibility, seems to be the biggest challenge.
So, if anyone’s interested, go follow me at @odd@gts.oddware.net so I get more federation going.
In the end, I’ll hopefully decide on a single server implementation and ditch the rest, but until then, I’ll just continue getting more and more schizo with accounts everywhere.

Using Gatorade to water plants because “it has electrolytes” is actually not as dumb as ending childhood vaccine mandates. One is dumb while the other is maliciously stupid, willfully negligent and harms kids.

We are officially dumber than Idiocracy.

As a Meta employee, I can honestly tell you what we know, and I do not know how we obtain all of it.

* Your full name
* Your full home address
* Your phone number
* Your e-mail
* Your government ID
* Your consumer report history
* The name of every family member
* The name of every friend
* The name of their family / friends
* Your marital status
* If you are faithful to your partner
* Your work history (all of it)
* Your education history (all of it)
* Your travel history (going back years)
* Your birth gender
* Your gender ID
* Your sexuality
* Your sexual preferences
* How often you're having sex
* Your partner's details (all the above)
* Your political ideology
* Your involvement with any group
* If you protest, we know
* If you're unhappy, we know

The amount of information we collect on you is insane. And we do it all for supposedly marketing and yes, we help the government since they have access to all this too.

So when someone says they want to avoid META or GOOGLE - respect.

This was a sweet little project! Took longer to watch the video than to actually set it up.

Dammit! Annoyed at myself now, for having heard the name #tailscale before, but not checking it out before now. It's awesome, and could have saved me many hours of fiddling, which I now don't need anymore.

Ja, såg det nämt i förmiddag, och kollade upp det. Tog väl typ 2 timmar från att jag inte visste vad det var, tills jag hade skapat VPN med alla mina enheter på ett mycket smidigare sätt än vad som har tagit mig dagar eller väckor att få rätt när jag gjort det manuellt med WireGuard innan. Och man behöver inte ens öppna nånting i brandväggen!
Enheterna i mitt hemmanät har jag satt till att kunna agera som exit-nodes och subnet-routers, så från utsidan kan jag antingen bara vara "normalt" inloggat, så jag kan ssh'a direkt till vilken burk jag vill, men annars använda nätet jag har där jag är, eller så kan jag med 1 klick ändra till att använda en enhet som exit-node, och då blir det som ett traditionellt VPN, där all trafik går via den noden, och det blir som om jag vore hemma. Sweet för mobil t.ex., så kan jag använda min AdGuard DNS server från var som helst.
Finns massa mera att säga, men jag orkar inte repetera hela doms knowledge base nu :P

Self-hosted Friendica
So, I just set up a self-hosted instance of Friendica. Just curious to test how it compares to Mastodon. Seems, this far, to be more what I'm after. We'll see...
