If they ever drop the track pads I’m out. It’s the only reason I got the Steam Deck as I play a lot of WoW on it and they are basically required. Plus I tinker in Linux a ton too and also they are super necessary.

My instance says 1 year and it doesn’t show in hot for me but shows in active. kbin.social.

At least tell us what you made up lol

They’re dead.

This depends. You can be smart about it. Running your own servers, including your own NVRs for video storage. Have dedicated VLANs. Firewalls. Etc. it’s not that bad.

Granted I work in automation and robotics and now networking so I’d say I’m for sure a giant add nerd. For a normal user it can be hard to stay safe.

Or you may simply not really have a need. That’s totally fine.

I’m disabled, so being able to do lights and thermostats and appliances with my iPad or phone is great for me. Having things turn on or off based on motion detection or sunset/rise really helps. I can unlock my door or open my garage for guests without having to get up.

I have a smart home. I run Unraid OS on my server and among a ton of dockers, I run my own VM with home assistant. Been doing my own DNS, network wide ad blocking, media server, home automation stuff for years now. Always will to help answer any questions.

I’m also disabled so the smart home really helps me.

Not a fan of the defederation. I’m actually displeased they would shout out an instance that will give new users a BAD experience of what the fediverse is.

I think Hover is the best. Not the cheapest though. If you want cheap and good, go Cloudflare.

This will be the one thing that causes Lemmy to fall…… pure burnout. It’s 2 guys making nothing and thousands of winey folks expecting this to be Reddit overnight.

Then they aren’t federated and likely won’t see posts, right? If instance A defederates from Instance B, no matter what instance B does, they don’t talk.
