So I finally dumped the Facebook app from my #Android. I will now only access it through the Brave browser.
My phone seems much happier now, snappier also.
#Docker for people who can't afford to run a server or pay for one.
Will checkout #YunoHost later on in a VM to see how well it is.
PHP OOP better than just basic functions ?
I just learned why I did not like MS VSCode. It's built on Electron like Atom. Piece of crap.
Man I wish I could code anything. There is still no proper Mastodon Desktop Client that is made without Java or Electron. So annoying.
Github™ Works best using Microsoft™ Edge™
Well, there goes GitHub. Microsoft will introduce vortex.github.com and telemetry.github.com to scan all the repos!

Internet Service Providers should never have the power to block or throttle connections to certain websites. From our own experience, we know how devastating this could be: https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/comcast-blocks-and-unblocks-tutanota-net-neutrality
However, in the US, they are about to abandon net neutrality. We call on all our users in the US to fight for net neutrality now!

Pi-Hole Stats
Just some daily stats.
It would be great if #Mastadon had an "Edit Post" feature. In case of auto-correction mishaps.
I hate when U.S. Citizens complain about spending over $3/Gal for Gasoline/Petrol. i'm like whatever, at least it we don't what everyone else pays per litre.
@angristan
I applaud you for running an incredibly busy and successful server and maintaining it like a pro.

I showed my supervisor #OnlyOffice and now he wants to run it in a VM on a server at work 😀 He thinks it's a great replacement for MSOffice 365 Joke.
**Biometric Apps Will Soon Be Pushed Across the Web**
This is a bad idea:
1. You can't "reset" your biometrics like a password.
2. Biometrics aren't hashable. The end result is they're less secure than other forms of authentication. (If you don't understand what this means, you're not qualified to have an opinion on this matter.)
3. You can't control what happens to your biometrics once they're in the hands of a 3rd party.
Please re-Toot.
GIMP 2.10!
Officially put out today, and it's the largest ever release.
GIMP 2.10 is the result of six years of work that originally focused on porting the program to a new image processing engine, GEGL.
The new version ships with far more new features, including new and improved tools, better file formats support, usability improvements, revamped color management support, a plethora of improvements for digital painters.
