Hey all! I live in a housing cooperative in the USA and I've recently been elected to the board to help manage things for the housing community. I would like to modernize where possible, and wean ourselves away from corporate tools in an effort to increase the privacy of my fellow residents and provide resilience against corporate enshittification and our dangerously hostile federal government.

::: spoiler in case you aren't familiar with what a housing cooperative is For some context, being in a housing cooperative means (in my case) that while from the outside the community appears to be an apartment complex like any other, it's very different because it is resident owned. Everyone living here owns an equal share of the community as a whole, and that share entitles them to living space (a housing unit) within the community, and voting rights on how our community is managed.

We don't pay rent to a landlord because there is no landlord. Monthly dues paid go directly to the community itself and are used to fund unit maintenance, infrastructure upgrades, property taxes, and so on.

The Board in charge of managing all of that is comprised of residents in the community who have been elected directly by the community itself. That's where I come in, as a new Board member. :::

We're currently using a horribly unsafe (from data ownership and privacy perspectives) mix of corporate software offerings to accomplish our management tasks. Gmail, Google Drive, TownSq (for property management needs, like maintenance tickets and payment processing), various proprietary building entry apps (e.g., pin codes for locks), etc.

I'm very comfortable with de-Googling and self-hosting something like Nextcloud to replace some of those things, but I've had very little luck finding fitting open source replacements for the property management portion. Everything I've been able to find is targeting landlords, real estate, or HOA models. None of those fit well for cooperative housing.

I'm leaning towards a self-hosted mix of NextCloud, possibly (mis)using Forgejo for maintenance requests, and Home Assistant to make a frankensystem covering as many community management needs as I can, and we'd just have to keep using proprietary stuff for the rest. However, I really would love to hear any creative suggestions or feedback from all of you about anything I've said, most especially if you're part of a cooperative and have dealt with similar issues.

It's been a while since the last time this was asked, so here goes again: what specific apps do you use Waydroid to run?

Whenever I get the itch to play around with this impressive project, I quickly remember that I can't think of anything to actually do with it. There's already a Linux native app for almost everything that isn't an ad infested game, so I'm curious if anyone has use cases for Waydroid that they can share. I'd love to hear about something cool that I didn't think of!

Regardless of whether you enjoyed the plot or acting or other typical measures by which most people will analyze it, I'm curious:

What thoughts do you have about the portrayals of autism in the movie?

Did you find that it was better or worse at representing autism to NT viewers than the first one from 2016?

I believe 1.0.152 is meant to be the version compatible with the new Lemmy release, and it works pretty well as a guest user. Unfortunately, when I try to login to lemmy.ml (which uses the new server version), I get Error: An unknown error has occurred.

Looked through the app and didn't see any official bug report area mentioned, so I hope this is the right place to go for this. If not, sorry for the noise!
