As an adult, we do too, and it also negatively impacts us. When I left the other social platforms I took the time to uninstall or disable many notifications, I now receive a total of 5 a day on average. It's good to see these conversations happening though, whether we react and change though only time will tell.

I just spun a container up to test this, it disables the registration and only allows invites after the initial account has been created, it returns an error if someone accesses the registration page and tries to create an account, https://www.focalboard.com/guide/server-setup/#registering-the-first-user

To invite a user, click on the Focalboard logo in the top left, Invite users, Copy link.

There doesn't appear to be anyway to manage users or non-owned boards, you can reset a user's password through commands, https://www.focalboard.com/guide/admin/#resetting-passwords

I agree, 100%. I never posted on other social media platforms until trying Lemmy, Mastodon, or Firefish. I find the fediverse is a really pleasant experience as long as the instance moderates can keep up with the spam, trolls, and other unwanted content. I think it's because it's not trying to commercialize the platforms that makes it more interesting and pleasant, at least for me.

I like that they show the team on the About Us page, always makes me trust companies more. I also like that they have fun with the branding and mascot.

I've used Namecheap for several years, no problems experienced with it.

Oh! That looks so good. I never really understood van life or living in your vehicle, but over the last few months have become sort of infatuated with the idea of living in something like this.

The idea of being able to move almost anywhere is so interesting to me.

Since all of the Reddit changes happened I took the time to try and back away from social media as I had a sort of addiction and probably still do. Now I consume much of my social media in the form of RSS feeds, even took the time to add all of my YouTube subscriptions to a RSS feed reader and unsubscribed from channels that I felt were too clickbaity, don't get me wrong there are a few I still follow.

There are also some of us that are/were trying and experimenting with different types of the fediverse, such as Lemmy, Kbin, Mastodon, Firefish, Pixelfed, etc. I have found myself gravitating toward Firefish, and Mastodon for the feed style, where as Lemmy, and Kbin are better as a forum or Pixelfed for image feeds.

Take a look at RSS-Bridge and RSSHub. They provide feeds for many websites that don't provide their own RSS feed.

Yeah, that's kind of what I expected and I am now thinking of keeping my setup how it is currently and getting a mini PC for less important data and services to tinker with.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Thanks for the reassurance. What I currently have is exactly that, RAID for the local data, and a spare drive that is mounted and unmount when data is backed up, and that is rsynced offsite to a cloud provider. I figured that my current setup was really reliable as I had slowly been researching and working on this over a few years.

I have a sort of itch to play with a mini PC, I guess it would be best not to hurt any of my important data by downgrading the setup, however this is a good time to really sort and figure out what I need and is important and what isn't as important and can be reobtained if something fails on the mini PC.
