Services vary a lot on how they are deployed and their dependencies, etc. The knowledge I have (and honestly I don’t have much) I just built over time, tinkering with different set-ups and trying to debug problems when they arose. So I guess just choose a few difference services and try to get them working (choose low-stakes ones at first, where the risk of getting pwned or losing everything is very low). Docker can abstract away a lot, so maybe try more direct deployments if you are interested in learning.

Doesn’t your browser warn you before closing a tab where you have entered text in an input field?

Not a DE but AwesomeWM. I like its default aesthetic and it’s highly extensible using Lua which gives a lot of power to the user.

• Lower upfront costs and quicker to set up as you don’t have to buy the hardware
• Don’t have hardware taking up space in your home
• Flexibility of being able to scale up or down your specs (or get rid of the VPS entirely) at the click of a button
• Don’t have to open your home network to the internet
• Better uptime (not your job to fix outages)

When I was young, I spent a lot of time playing Extreme Paintbrawl. I only learned years later that it had achieved notoriety as one of the worst video games of all time. Looking back it’s not hard to see why. But back when it was one of the very few games we had for PC, I got a lot of enjoyment out of it.

I was planning to sign up at BeeHaw because it seems pretty active and with high quality discussions. When I heard that it had defederated from Lemmy.ml and Lemmy.world I decided not to sign up to any of those three as I would rather have access to all of them (though I can understand why BeeHaw defederated). So I just went with VLemmy.net as it was one of the recommended ones (on join-lemmy.org and the Awesome-Lemmy-Instances GitHub) and seems to be very broadly federated.

I don’t think it matters too much, though I think if you were signed up on the same instances as all your favourite communities it would be a bit more convenient.

Would be really interested to hear any real life reviews from users of the Bangle.js 2. It looks great given its features and price point but would be interested to know if there is a catch somewhere.

-site:pinterest.* seems to work for me.
