France to deploy 7,000 soldiers after fatal stabbing of teacher
I wish he would recruit and deploy 7,000 teachers instead. There are 10 000 towns of more than 1000 inhabitants in France, it would be barely enough

Europeans, what is something that Americans have/do that makes no sense to you?
Restaurant tipping instead of decent wages; somehow the blame is on the "stingy" customer

Samsung joins Google in RCS shaming Apple
"What did the EU ever do for us?" in the monthy python mood. After usb c, apple is getting its proprietary model challenged again. When will Apple understand that in the long run it hinders innovation? And that openness and standardisation is a catalyst for it. RCS might not be the interoperable solution the EU pushes though. Anyway that's the future of not using standards : https://lemmy.nz/post/2316522

Ok, how do I start self-hosting?
There is this mostly French community (second language English) called yunohost (read y u no host) that provides a selfhosting solution accessible for beginners. They even offer one free domain to familiarise yourself hands on (+letsencrypt certificate). I have been using this for two years and it works well, I ran into issues but learned a lot in the process, community and devs are nice and helpful. Based on debian. https://yunohost.org/#/index_en They package most of the popular applications you'd expect for selfhosting (nextcloud, owncloud, WordPress, drupal and easily a hundred other apps)

Best lemmy client for android
I only searched for apps in F-droid and my favourite is Voyager. Just love the full black interface with blue highlights and the swipe actions. I tried liftoff and thunder, but came back to voyager.
