Instagram - posts can still be checked in a browser without logging in. Imginn exists too if you want to browse a profile.
Facebook - Anecdotal, but I have not had a Facebook account in 20 years and I can safely say I’ve never once had FOMO or trouble finding information on an event. If it’s a private social gathering that’s worth going to, someone will invite me.
Instagram/Facebook I would just delete. Maybe make a final post explaining why you’re deleting and say “find me on Pixelfed” just to help spread the word.
For Reddit, I love when see people replace every comment they ever made with a link to Lemmy before deleting their account. Reddit shows comments from deleted accounts so they stay up. There are apps that will do this for you.
For Gmail just hold onto and have it forward to your new address in case someone tries to contact you that way. But also back it up with Google takeout in case Google randomly decides to delete the account (rare but it happens).
Sounds like maybe they’re looking to invest, and expect a return? But if not, they should just pay hosting costs for a Lemmy or Piefed instance.
What I said is basically the same as the top comment on their post, so maybe they will!
From what I can gather KonstaKang is the guy who makes these Raspberry Pi-specific versions.
Me too. The original devs abandoned it and it was picked back up by new devs in 2025
The way I see it, if someone eventually makes a Bazzite-styled distro that “just works” with a Plasma-Bigscreen UI on a Raspi it will become the clear and obvious choice for anyone. But we’re far from that still.
Not quite, and believe me, I’ve been looking.
Your best bet is probably LineageOS Android TV on a Raspi 5. From there you can install Kodi too. My issue here is that CEC does not work. Meaning you need a second remote.
I probably don’t recommend LibreELEC on a Raspi, because despite install being seamless, Kodi these days is essentially a real-debrid frontend (which might be what you’re looking for if you want integral torrent downloads!). The normal streaming apps for Kodi are not maintained even PlexJellyfin don’t work out of the box.
Something else I’m keeping an eye on is Plasma Bigscreen but that’s probably 2 years out minimum of being user friendly enough for someone not experienced.
Lastly if you have a Samsung TV, Tizentube will get you YouTube without ads (and other perks).
Good point!
Changes nothing lol
Interesting take, isn’t Lemmy less democratic since admins have total control?
Lemmy is 50% people who hate Reddit for giving the volunteer mods too much power to shape their communities, and 50% people who hate Reddit for not giving the volunteer mods enough power to shape their communities.
And no they don’t get along here either.
I recently asked a friend to remove their meta glasses while we were out to eat. It was awkward for a moment but they were understanding, and we had a good talk about privacy and tech after.
Well I’ll be
Looks cool, when can we have that tech in a tablet for reading?
Are these the same people that refused to suspend Kiwi Farms and 8chan?
I think your URL to the github is a hyperlink back to this post…
I love the description.
Hey everyone, so you just finished setting up the *Arr stack and your dashboards lookin crisp. But you look at your htop and see… unused RAM. It’s disgusting, isn’t it?
Nextcloud is federated?
There is with Reddit! If you browse enough old posts you’ll inevitably come across a profile who’s history entirely consists of “I’ve quit and gone to Lemmy”.
