I’ve been using self-hosted Jitsi Meet for a few weeks now. Works perfectly. Haven’t tried the calendar feature, though.

No, I’m not. All I am saying is that people are still using IRC. IRC is therefore not dead. But if you want to compare Discord with IRC, then yes, IRC is dead. But not dead-dead since people are still using it and can still recover. I know people that wants to start using IRC again.

Do you follow what I mean now?

Last time I used IRC (which was 1-3 years ago), I found over 4 servers that each had over 15 users. And since I am communicating with 5+ IRC users through XMPP, IRC is not dead. It’s more dead today compared to 20 years ago, yes, but it is not dead-dead.

But IRC is dead now

I highly disagree. I am in a group chat on XMPP that uses a IRC bridge and many of the users in that group chat are using that bridge.

And now to other stuff that I want to mention related to the discussion in this thread.

Services that does not meet modern standards like Mumble and XMPP, are not widly used because they “lack many important features”. I say “bah, humbug” to that!

If MSN and ICQ worked flawlessly when those services was active, Mumble and XMPP works very well today, too. People are too spoiled by today’s technology.

Here’s an example.

I use my self-hosted Jitsi Meet server when communicating with people that refuses to talk to me unless there’s video calls and screen sharing. Otherwise, I gladly use Mumble 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, every year! And for file sharing other than images? XMPP, baby!

A friend of mine invited a Discord loving person to my Jitsi Meet server few weeks ago. He/she said “it looks just like Discord, I’m sold!” My friend (also a Discord lover) agreed and does not hesitate for 1 second to join me on Jitsi Meet. My friend’s Discord friend said he/she gladly join us more times.

I am apparently the privacy activist (not using Monero, SimpleX Chat, Degoogled Chromium, or Keypass, though). I do use uBlock Origin (Gecko ffs!) and Bitwarden (self-hosted Vaultwarden). Unfortunately, I am using Telegram, but trying to move all my contacts to my own Snikket server. It’s a very slow process.

My vote goes to Kanboard. Awesome service by the people behind Miniflux.

For me it was elementary OS. Dual-booted with Windows back in 2015/2016. Maybe 1 year later, I installed Linux Mint Cinnamon and gradually used it more than Windows. Now I am using EndeavourOS XFCE and only using Windows virtually… when I am bored or need to use Adobe Lightroom Classic.

I understand :) But unfortunately, I will not create an issue on GitHub. Hopefully, someone else will do it in the future.

And if someone doesn’t have an account at GitHub? :) Can you please upload MAZANOKE to Codeberg? I rather use Codeberg (Germany) than GitHub (USA (Microsoft)).

This is my to-go solution before sending photos to someone. Excellent service!

But I miss adding options in Docker, for an example default quality. I often clear cookies and other data so it’s kinda tedious to select the same options over and over again :)

Yes, but iOS is even more closed than Android which makes all iPhones a small prison for open-minded and privacy oriented people.

Google is Big Tech, logs everything. Apple is Big Tech too, but only logs tiny less than Google. All Big Tech is a big no-no if you’re privacy oriented. This applies to all services that uses Big Tech, too.

Here’s my response to the -2 votes or whatever it is called. I bet it’s because of the last sentence. If you surf a website with a browser with uBlock Origin and blocks Big Tech, that’s good. But a lot of people visits websites and allows everything, feeding Big Tech with even more data than they already have. That was why I wrote it is a big no-no even services that uses Big Tech. Signal included.

You get denied all the time?

For me it’s Mumble. Open sourced and completely free with encryption, and temporary chat logs.

How about Mumble? It’s free, open sourced, encrypted, and with temporary chats with the ability to share images with ease.

That works too, if you don’t use the DNS within RethinkDNS. At the moment, I subscribe to over 100 lists that mainly blocks ads.

Yepp. I have used the Wireshark servers from Mullvad VPN for at least 1 year in RethinkDNS now. Works flawlessly.

Horrific read!

Yet another reason why I use F-Droid and RethinkDNS with “Block newly installed apps by default” in the universal firewall rules enabled.

Only the absolute neccessary apps that I can’t live without (like my Swedish bank’s app) will be installed from Play Store.

I agree, but I don’t know how yet :( Need to read more about it. I love and prefer Docker in most cases, so I want to Dockerise my projects.

I have my own personal finance tracker, Keizai. I found mainly Firefly III as bloated and since I wanted a simple, straight-forward finance tracker, I created my own.

Please bare in mind that Keizai is not yet finished. The development is still on-going, but it’s a slow process. I have multiple projects in hand and with autism and other plans for a better, more healthier life, the development for all my projects tend to be slow.

And yes, you can self-host Keizai.
