🦇 Arr Keep it up, whole zen of python can fit in here.
😁 Nitin Khanna social media, as in where you go to consume content and read people's comments and have conversations? Yes. Social network, as in where you go to hang out with friends? Nope!
🦇 Arr "You have zero friends." Well yes, but I do not need social media to tell me that! Or South Park episode titles, for that matter.

Yay I'm using the Internet.
🦇 Arr Congratulation. Are you 1. a dog, 2. a kid or 3. FBI agent pretending to be a kid?

Pzumk This is crazy. Are there other big sites or tools with a bus factor of 1?
🦇 Arr Definitely not ARD Mediathek.
🏒 Lucian Marin In 2019 I suggested to Elon Musk to build a social network together. He answered me and said he wasn't interested, but my idea definitely changed everything. This is the butterfly effect of me creating a tiny social network. Five years later I saved the entire world from collapse.
🦇 Arr Did he not get the idea from the community that all billionaries buy out a kind of media outlet to spread their point of view to the world? As for apps Musk likes to code, the everything-app seems to be it. For 20 years now, or when was his time with paypal?

😀 Tom Happy 10-year Subversary to me!
🦇 Arr Late to the party, but unbelievable, that a single server survived so long. Or more precise, a login on it. With one rename of said server, I guess. Congrats on your persistance.

🦇 Arr Just read a heading on hackernews: "making social "social" again". This site here is what makes social media "social", instead of corporate, again. (But media is technically just text, so not media, but social text, at its best, I guess.)

🏒 Lucian Marin Yes! How many times I need to explain it? Subreply is HN version of a social network.
🗿 Jonah Tim ferris style question: best purchase of around 100USD (or equivalent currency) or less? I'll start. kindle paperwhite, read it every day before bed.
🦇 Arr Non-IT: Good frying pan. Electronics: MX Mouse Anyhwere 3 was a nice upgrade since it has three pairing profiles and good mouse wheel haptics. Slightly out of the ordinary.

🦇 Arr Idea: Poll based social media. No texting between users in the public section. Just the possibility to doodle into events, find common interests in a "which do you prefer" style, (dating via yes/no?!), sharing links with up/downvote button, commenting on memes with funny🦘/not funny stickers. But without comments that could go toxic. Perhaps with "ask poll creator to add option" reply free text, though.

🏒 Lucian Marin Firefox brand is weak, it's associated with IE era and it's dropping market share like crazy. Mozilla brand got a nice refresh, it's trusted, it's associated with privacy and they got new good products that need to carry Mozilla brand. It should be Mozilla Suite for a new internet age: Mozilla Browser, Mozilla VPN, Mozilla Monitor and so on. This way the browser will be their main product, it will have internal focus and probably gain back the market share.
🦇 Arr Since 50 % of users don't know what a browser is, let's call it Mozilla Internet. The last rename of Firefox is now Firefox "Quantum" was cited on tech pages a lot, though.

🏒 Lucian Marin Where is Edge OS, Microsoft? Windows 11 is the new IE 11. Chrome OS is the future for enterprise and casual users.
🦇 Arr Well, Windows RT (especially on ARM) was kind of IE11-OS, with a very limited app selection.

👨‍💻 Matthieu V. How would you build an home server these days ? For self hosting purposes (Nextcloud, Photoprism, Plex and various apps like that) with maybe with around 8Gb to be futureproff
🦇 Arr I would overengineer it ridiciously and farm Chia, for now ;) Can serve as a file dump afterwards anyway
