People would think a CEO is too rich and important to get personally involved with this, but I swear reading the shill comments and how personal they take things makes me think spez himself is behind them pounding on his keyboard all day lol

Yea between the enshitificaiton of the internet and how far selfhost software has come it is a great time to selfhost and will just keep getting better.

Selfhosting, reddit drama, kbin, all this just makes it seem like the internet is having a sort of grassroots, back to basics movement which I'm all for lol.

Maybe he's not saying anything but then will drop a fully polished app out of nowhere like that Beyoncé album

Agreed, Reddit was needing a culling, I’m all for this fresh start even if it’s less people. Hate to sound like a internet hipster but something can become too mainstream lol

1. Follow docker install guide for raspi
2. Browse awesome-selfhosted and find services that seem interesting to you or ask for recs here.
3. Follow the projects guide to do a docker install
4. (Bonus) Setup a reverse proxy like nginx proxy manager so you can access your services with urls
5. (Bonus) Setup domain and a service such as Tailscale so you can access your services safely from outside your home.

There's also the longer term effect that could be in play of the content pool drying up and driving users away, those changes are reverberations and wouldn't be having a dramatic immediate effect.

Right now if anything I'd expect views to be spiking due to the content generated from the drama itself. Once that dies out then damages to content generation from driving away users will be more evident.

@GunnarRunnar Touché

But the strain and concentration required causes you to dump your drawers.

That one’s handy, this one also good:

If you get in really exclusive ones you can bring it up in conversations as an icebreaker and put it on your resume

Rofl, it's a hobby, you do it for fun, you shouldn't need to get paid. I also play tennis as a hobby and I love to talk to people about it without charging them money believe it or not. The fetishization with internet fame, views, and money is making gaming weird.

I mean back when I was more into gaming I would contribute. I didn't expect money, I just did it because I was fun. I feel like there's a big disconnect between the current generation and my generation that wrote 300 page guides on gamefaqs for the hell of it rofl.

I'm all for the spez hate train, but insulting someone's appearance makes me question what she looks like rofl

I mean I would argue it's related, the reason behind it is $$$. Corporate interests have homogenized content and de-normalized diversity and community.

People who use to just post their excel sheets and research on some bb forum for free somewhere starting getting paid by icy veins or maxroll. Overtime they establish a monopoly on the content and can do whatever the hell they want.

Why make a platform that depends on the community and you get the ad views when you can adopt a business strategy that also gets you youtube and social media views while eliminating your competition.

And the youtube trend is just people trying to emulate the handful of people who managed to make it big off the twitch/youtube bag.

Tailscale, super easy install, sets up a VPN into your services, no port opening needed

The real question is how will 2023 handle a Peach who uses a frying pan for a weapon.

let me in

Moving accounts between instances isn’t a thing yet right?

I like RackNerd

Cheap as hell

I’m on kbin.social and I can see this ;)

Funny story, I spilt coke all over my first mechanical keyboard. I tried everything to fix it, water, rice, alcohol. After all that it still felt horrible so I ended up just buying a new one. But I didn't throw it away, I just stuck it in my closet where it remained for years.

Then approximately 8 years later, I take it out, randomly decide to try typing on it.. its perfect. Felt just like it did when it was new, I dunno if the sugar just broke down or degraded over time or what, but it was fixed.

So if nothing else, just put it into storage for a decade and then try it out again lol.
