A little hardcore method in my opinion. This is especially if the instance is dying.

I agree, I myself am a programmer but hey not everyone is installing IDEs and game engines and Linux on their tablet. Steam could be interesting knowing that Apple authorizes alternative stores in the European Union. The iPad is not complete indeed, but it is just a consumer computer that targets people who do not want to complicate their lives as well as artists (Apple pencil).

Basically you go on Reddit (It is French on the image because I'm French), you click on "log in" and look at the connection options.

It's exactly like the "Connect with Google" feature but also "private" according to them. I don't know if it's a marketing argument or what but unlike Google they generate an alias email that is similar to what Proton does but for free. There is a Windows App.

It is true that a real Firefox on iOS/iPadOS is missing. But otherwise you can’t say that your iPad is ONLY used to watch Netflix 🤣 I mean, some people replace their computer with an iPad!

Yes, thank you for answering the privacy issue. To be honest, I use Apple products but not so much iCloud. I’m in the Proton ecosystem and I’m waiting for Firefox to become less terrible than it currently is, otherwise in the meantime I’m using Safari with AdGuard...

I chose Lemmy.zip because I liked the compact interface and the color palette. It takes me little to be happy!

I don’t know... I would have liked them to set up a system of instances like on Lemmy or Mastodon to remove the price barrier + lazy to pay an app €12.

[UPDATE] Thank you for your comments but I found that Write Freely was well on paper but not funny to set up (self hosting) and maybe a little dead. I found that https://bearblog.dev met the specifications well. Although it is not integrated into the Fediverse, it is free and respectful of privacy!

Everything is in the title. I am looking for a FREE alternative to Blogger but that allows me to share Blog articles in the Fedivers. I don’t like WordPress.com because it is very limited in its free version and not very transparent about privacy in my opinion unlike WordPress.org. In short, if you have any suggestions, I’m taking it!

The site finds the Twitter user I’m looking for but when I enter the link bird.makeup like [email protected] on Mastodon it doesn’t find...

Hello, I hope you are well.

This is a very special period because I am migrating to the Fedivers. If I’m talking to you here, it’s because you suspect Reddit is a first step! Now I’ve moved to Mastodon. I took the mas.to instance and I was faced with a problem: who to follow? So I was wondering if you had any content proposals that I could follow on Mastodon. I am strongly recommended to follow hashtags so I also take.

(I didn’t know it but thanks to ActivityPub I can follow Lemmy communities from Mastodon, if it’s not crazy)

It would be a solution in the short term but do people know how to mirror a Twitter account for free?

Thank you for making me discover the site! Regarding Peertube, it’s more complicated, it’s better to use Piped to continue using YouTube...

[–] Betawhat 13 points 6 months ago (5 children)

PeerTube on the idea is great but you have to be honest, YouTube is better. So this is what I did in this specific case to fight the bad Google: I registered on a Piped instance to continue watching videos without ads, without trackers, without sponsored passages, etc... and if you have an Apple device there is an app for that, it’s called Yattee.

I have a Mastodon account but honestly like PeerTube I like it on paper but there is only politics, so if you have accounts to recommend me I’m taking.

Otherwise Linux Mint is really special I approve of your choice.
