Congrats!

I’ve noticed this too. Most of the stuff on Reddit’s frontpage has an angry undertone. Anger = Engagement.

As long as automatic playback is not turned on by default!

How much of a PIA is it to install Linux on a Chromebook? I’m looking for a small laptop and Chromebooks are the perfect size.

Do you know where that tight little ball in your lower abdomen should go? Down the shitter. You don’t have to internalise it. You are your own best friend.

My homies: Marcus, Seneca and Epictetus.

Same here. Mandrake 8.2 was a buggy mess, but I have fond memories of it.

That was one shitty database application lol. I guess the programmer hadn’t thought of using pagination.

The UI was dope. My drug of choice was Netbus 1.70, though.

Netbus 1.70 baby

Frankly, I don’t see this a a problem as long as the software is up to date and the hardware is sound. I bet there are thousands of SPARC servers out there processing data 24/7 since 1995.

I’m pretty sure the app is great, but I am not a fan of putting all my eggs in the same basket. I will keep using Bitwarden for the time being.

I use Debian with a patched version of motif window manager. The 90s never ended:

I find the hot/active categories pretty confusing too. It would be nice to be able to show subbed communities either across the top of the page or on a sidebar like old Reddit.

There is no engagement algorithm; it’s us :)

I use Debian because it’s what I’ve been using for the last twenty-two years.

Yo, a couple years ago I had become fed up with the state of the modern Internet, and I started looking for alternatives. This is what I have found so far:

• Gopher protocol (sdf.org is pretty active)
• Gemini protocol (Modern version of gopher)
• Shared UNIX systems (also called tildes) sdf.org is great!
• RSS
• IRC/Matrix to chat with people
• Session messenger to chat with family
• BBSes via syncterm
• wiby.me and marginalia.nu search engines to find personal web sites
• oldavista.com to browse the ‘Old Net’
• Web forums
• Neocities
• Webrings (They still exist!)
• Lemmy (This is a new one)

The next step for me will be to build my own personal site. The only way to keep the independent web alive is to participate in it.
