@mntmn I'm still a big fan of pure wireguard server installed on my machines. Many routers nowadays, even home routers, have a wireguard server integration.
Very simple port forwarding is necessary if your router doesn't support wireguard.
Openvpn is of course an option too, just not as quick to configure as wireguard.

@prealpinux @ggrey @elettrona @localhost @_elena Coolify è un bel progetto. Personalmente ho preferito Komodo come webUI, l'ho trovato molto e più stabile e responsive.
Hostinger offre delle VPS decenti europee, non è male, lo uso per servizi ad alta fedeltà personalmente.
Per self-hosting ho un homelab, specialmente per il costo dell'archiviazione delle VPS (4TB+)

@skariko @Imprinted @giacomo @lcruggeri @informatica @informapirata senz'altro così. Google bloccherà appunto il download di apk che non provengano siano "certificati". Forse, questa certificazione è ottenibile anche senza pubblicare l'applicazione sul Play Store, ma poco cambia essendo la certificazione stessa il problema in questione.

È ora di prendere in considerazione alternative come Lineage o GrapheneOS per chi possiede pixel.

@giacomo @informapirata @lcruggeri @informatica la loro scelta di supportare solo dispositivi Google è dettata dalle patch di sicurezza più frequenti che vengono rilasciate dagli sviluppatori. Capisco possa suonare controverso, però GrapheneOS è un progetto *fissato* con la privacy, e non ci vedo nessuna problema.

Postmarket è un bellissimo progetto e sarei curioso di come ti trovi ad usarlo, su che hardware e se è a tutti gli effetti usabile tutti i giorni o meno

Plasma 6.5 is out! Look forward to cool interface re-designs (rounded corners! Automatic smooth light-to-dark transitions!), features (smart KRunner searches! Pinned clipboard items!) and tons of usability and accessibility improvements:

Good morning #mastodon ! I just wanted to share a thought: I study in a bachelor computer ingeneering program, and many colleagues of mine use #windows 11, and some others use Linux based #os

There is no *right* choice of course, specially when you just need that OS that can run your softwares.
But when it comes to learning and becoming a responsible IT Expert in the near feature, I believe nothing's as good as #linux !

Unfortunately I see friends of mine not even putting the effort on trying

@BucciaBuccia @informapirata @informatica giusto, e spero che presto venga presa in considerazione proprio questa opzione di fallback. Sono sorpreso che Signal non fosse già pronto a qualcosa del genere.

Non ho intenzione di abbandonare Signal ancora per molto tempo. Ci serve lavorare su una piattaforma "comune" che lentamente possa sostituirsi ad app proprietarie di monopolio, raccogliendo più persone.

The Free Software Foundation (FSF) today announced "Librephone," a new project aimed at achieving complete mobile phone freedom for users from Google and Apple. The initiative will work to reverse engineer obstacles until its goal of a fully free mobile phone environment is realized. Can they be successful where industry leaders like Ubuntu failed previously?

Microsoft wants 2025 to be the "year of the Windows 11 PC refresh." They want up to 400 million perfectly good computers running Windows 10 to become e-waste. Why? So Microsoft can have their cake ($140-$200 for a Windows 11 license) and eat it (your data) too

It's time to switch sides, and break away from this cycle of endless upgrades. Our new guide walks you through installing a Linux-based operating system—keeping your computer secure long after Microsoft walks away

WireGuard FPGA (Hardware) implementation offers performance, latency, and power efficiency using a dedicated, parallel hardware logic which allows the cryptographic heavy lifting to be done directly in parallel hardware, removing the bottlenecks of a standard CPU based system for high throughput, low latency networking applications.

@serebit In Hamburg, sie sagen "moin moin", kein "hallo" :)

In Hamburg they say "moin moin", not "hallo".

Enjoy! It's a wonderful city.

I want to live in a world in which saying “I don't know” is considered more valuable than spewing plausible-sounding nonsense.

@nixCraft I personally love coolify, we use it already on production for Wordpress and other interna software. Recommend it to anyone!

Google's continued enshittification of #Android is incredibly upsetting.

@BoostMediaAPS con NowTV è così da anni, non è una news, purtroppo. Alternative a NOW?

I just repaired my Pixel 8a broken screen. Got the replacement from @iFixit, great experience and documentation. I even got a replacement battery for the next year (I'm still at 320 cycles). I live in the EU, shipping took only 2 days.

Google official fingerprint sensor calibration tool works perfectly even when running @GrapheneOS rom.

Just wanted to share how good it feels to be responsible of my own hardware!

Germany's position has been reverted to UNDECIDED.

Despite expressing concerns about breaking end-to-end encryption, Germany refrained from taking a definitive stance on the Chat Control proposal during the September 12th LEWP meeting. A willingness to negotiate and compromise remains.

This is an unfortunate development as Germany is crucial to defeating Chat Control.
