Those two apparently don’t allow law enforcement access to their databses (yet?) even though I seem to remember they do. But others do:

Overkill for this but just wanted to mention
stirlingtools.com/ (self-hosted PDF magic)
Yeah, you can export multiple-page PDFs and https://floss.social/@doctormo is working on revamping how it’s handling colour so we will eventually get propper CMYK support and other cool stuff
Oh, very cool list (though Nitter - and probably another Twitter clients?(1) - are probably dead?
(1) Maybe not: https://github.com/j-fbriere/squawker/issues/187
Ghostery seems to be a GmbH(1) which is a German for-profit company. Does anyone know how they’re making money?
One of my admin friends said it’s not really made with desktop users in mind but more for people who need to set up (lots of) computers / servers quite often (= admins). If you’re not planning on distro hopping or reinstalling your system all the time it doesn’t really do anything for you that any other distro plus a good backup strategy already does. Plus you can use the Nix package manager without installing NixOS on the distro you’re on right now, if you wanna check it out.
How do people here feel about this evaluation?
I don’t trust e (that name 🤦♀️) not sure why but they pulled some weird stuff in the beginning that I can’t remember and at least back when I checked years ago they shipped a weird store that got it’s apps from shady apk sites which is a strange move to push on everyday consumers. I hope they changed but …
I have a friend who (just like me) has had a FP3, we were both very happy with it. Not sure why but he needed to replace it, got the FP5 but it was to clunky for him. Replaced it with a Pixel with Graphene likes it a lot.
I’d still still perfectly happy with my FP3 running Lineage/MicroG but my SD-card slot seems to be broken and I’m running out of space. I’m getting a FP5 in about a week, let’s see if it’s too clunky for me as well __
I feel like civilisation is kinda doomed when we let people come up with the same shitty idea every few years over and over again. It has been proven again and again that using your real name doesn’t deter people doing the most heinous things on social media. Bigots don’t care of you know their names. Just log into Facebook Twitchan or any other social media for a second to see that this idea is complete bs. But whatever even if she would realise it there will be someone in a few years trying to do it again.
I’m running two servers in two different locations on two i5 NUCs with USB-attached HDDs (blasphemy, I know) for storage and lots of Docker services. Its not super fast (e.g. Jellyfin) but good enough for me.
