09:20 schestowitz-TR; Plan B

09:20 schestowitz-TR; Assuming joindiaspora goes under, in a few weeks:

09:20 schestowitz-TR; I can quit all social control media

09:20 schestowitz-TR; and focus instead on daily links, irc etc.

09:21 Techrights-sec; I guess there are some advantages to that. What do you see as the main

09:21 Techrights-sec; disadvantages? Certainly there would be more time available for more productive

09:21 Techrights-sec; activities.

09:22 schestowitz-TR; I have just spent 5-10 mins checking what tuxmachines gets from twitter in terms of impressions etc. The assumption many make is that without presence in such sites you lose visibility, relevance etc.

09:22 *psydroid4 has quit (connection closed)

09:36 schestowitz-TR; i will do a viodeo related to this

09:36 schestowitz-TR; ota

10:50 schestowitz-TR; can you pls check the draft to see if there are some

10:50 schestowitz-TR; important point/s I left out?

10:50 schestowitz-TR; I expect some JD users will ready it and can maybe step up to help

11:30 Techrights-sec; checking

11:30 Techrights-sec; s/broken next month/broken by next month/

11:30 Techrights-sec; s/Ive just three accounts/I've already gone through three accounts because .../

11:30 Techrights-sec; yes, self-hosting *is* the way forward, yet fewer and fewer these days know

11:30 Techrights-sec; anything about computers and fewer still can actually use them. No, flicking

11:30 Techrights-sec; fingers passively at a read-only display is not using ICT.

11:30 Techrights-sec; s/upfront/up front/

11:36 schestowitz-TR; I do not know anything about theirinfra (yet)

11:36 schestowitz-TR; I have just added one more paragraph and illustration, take a quickm look, it is

11:36 schestowitz-TR; at the very bottom

11:37 Techrights-sec; ack

11:37 Techrights-sec; Good point about how easy it is to self-host Gemini and, maybe, WWW. However for

11:37 Techrights-sec; the latter to be both safe and easy it is necessary to stick to CSS+HTML and

11:37 Techrights-sec; exchew fancy CMS tools. Static site generators will meet the need of most.

19:10 Techrights-sec; ack

19:10 Techrights-sec; excellent!

19:10 Techrights-sec; I thought you might have ordered the HDMI-VGA adapter in the same shipment?

19:11 schestowitz-TR; I wanted to first be sure we have the right monitor assignments around here, and tbh I rarely use a screen on the old pi, rianne could do triple head, but no place to put all that

19:16 schestowitz; "

19:16 schestowitz; @roy Nice writeup. Me as well we lost our accounts at Identica. I literally had a complete community of FOSS people from India there with connections as well.

19:16 schestowitz; Now I still have memories of the same FOSS community of India as well as europe hidden inside those thousands of comments in my profile and others posts. Will I loose all of them, I am afraid thats happening.

19:16 schestowitz; I wish they make this atleast something like Read only pod and some of us can donate to it.
