Yes, it’s just sway

I’ve been using RSS feeds for youtube channels for a few years. I don’t visit the site if I can help it, I don’t login, I don’t “like & subscribe”, I don’t see any clickbait thumbnails and most important: I don’t see any ads. Just newsboat & mpv.

Good recommendation indeed, the zones of thought are awesome. One of my all time favourites!

I’d go for Alpine Linux in such case.

I’ll interpret non-US a bit broader as non-English. English is hugely dominant in scifi so it’s often hard to find good books in other languages. I’d also love to hear the recommendations of others too! A few I read:

• (German)
  • “Die Welten der Skiir” trilogy (by Dirk van den Boom): https://bookwyrm.social/book/593373/s/die-welten-der-skiir-1 is really great . He also wrote another trilogy (Die Reise der Scythe) which is also quite nice.
  • “3517 Anno Domini: Wir waren Götter” by Raik Thorstad. Note that his is a primarily an M/M romance, but it has a nice dystopian scifi setting.
• (Spanish)
  • “En un lugar llamado tierra” - I read this long ago, don’t remember much: https://bookwyrm.social/book/979935/s/en-un-lugar-llamado-tierra
  • La señal - https://bookwyrm.social/book/979918/s/la-senal
• (French) The works by Jules Verne should probably be mentioned here, despite being written well a century ago. “Vingt mille lieues sous les mers”, as already mentioned in another comment, is a must-read classic.
  • “Helstrid” - I have this one on my e-reader for a while but haven’t properly started it yet: https://bookwyrm.social/book/1289177/s/helstrid , so I can’t say if it’s any good.
• (Dutch) Long ago as a teen I once read “Coriolis, de stormplaneet” and liked it: https://bookwyrm.social/book/979934/s/coriolis-de-stormplaneet

I’m using todo.txt, which is a basic plain text file following a simple syntax. I added various extensions to work with this: todo.txt-more, which does things like:

• make things accessible through a simple menu (dmenu/bemenu/rofi) system.
• time tracking functions
• synchronisation with github issues and/or e-mail

As a kooikerhondje owner, I approve of this post :)

Let’s not downvote the poor guy just because we lost him to Apple. The comment is on topic and people are allowed to make different choices/mistakes 😉

The more kooikerhondjes the better! :)

Nice to see you here too, with a brand new instance even!

I use newsboat for all my RSS needs, which is pretty much my main entry point for a lot of things:

• News sites
• Various blogs
• Youtube channels (I unsubscribed from everything on my YouTube account, hardly ever login, and only use RSS to follow the channels I want)
• Podcasts
• I used to have some subreddits in there too, but those were ritually deleted after June 12th of course

Danke, das sehr war interessant zu lesen! Die Schweiz ist politisch etwas eigenartig aber das fasziniert mich ziemlich. Ich habe den Ahnung, das manche Sachen, sowie beteiligung und einfluß im Demokratischen Prozess, da sogar besser läufen als in EU-länder wie meiner (die Niederlande).

Yep, people are enthusiastic about self hosting and like talking about what they host :)

When I am sending? Well, once things are set up properly I’m pretty confident that things arrive (though nobody can ever be 100% sure of course). I also tend to mail to the same recipient domains a lot, like for work and hobby projects, so once those are tested you get pretty confident.

Unnoticed downtime is usually quickly noticed, I depend on my server for a lot of things. Senders are often resilient enough to keep things in their queue and try a few times. There’s also a fallback MX registry at my (3rd party) DNS host which will queue stuff in case the primary MX goes down.

Interesting hardware list, that indeed is a bit more complicated (and probably more expensive) than most are running.

Nice, RSS is great indeed. I use it extensively as well, but I didn’t even realize it was a thing people ran as a service on a server. I hadn’t heard of FreshRSS etc. I personally just run newsboat from my desktop/laptop, even my phone if need be.

You may have to buy the necessary brain upgrade from your brain dealer, but generally multiple languages fit yeah 😉 It may get a bit confusing if they’re very similar languages though, although I also find that that may help in retention of vocabulary.
