This is the way to go

For less than $250 you can easily get a used Pixel 7a or an 8a for around $300 (which were released in 2023 and 2024 respectively) and install GrapheneOS on it. The 7a gets updates until 2028 and the 8a until 2031. And GrapheneOS is much more secure than LineageOS or other ROMs.

There's a fork called Swiftgram, they might have left out the content restrictions in their App Store build. If not, you can try building the .ipa from source and sideloading it using AltStore.

iTorrent is pretty nice, but you have to sideload it

Would Mexico and Panama be the 53rd and 54th then?

The first step would probably be to try and revoke their tax exempt non profit status. But I'm confident the Signal Foundation would at that point just move to another jurisdiction. Maybe Canada, Switzerland or something like that.

That's what I thought when I first saw this

I personally like Flood, never tried it with qBt, but I use it with ruTorrent all the time

I also recommend qBitController if you want to access it from Android, or qBitControl if you're on iOS (has to be sideloaded from AltStore)

The annexation stuff might be nonsense, but nevertheless, previous US administrations always treated Canada as a partner. Trump treats them like an enemy, despite them having done absolutely nothing wrong. So I fully understand the Canadian people, why would they continue to give money to companies in a fascist dictatorship? The US under Trump are not much better than Russia, China, Iran, Israel, North Korea, etc.

I locked the previous thread, because it was kinda offtopic and far from a constructive discussion

I'm not the one who locked this thread, but I can fully understand the decision, considering that there are 4 reports for this post alone

 

There used to be a Kbin instance called feddit.online, which was shut down. @Jerry@hear-me.social just announced on Mastodon, that he brought feddit.online back to life, this time using PieFed. PieFed is a pretty neat alternative to Lemmy and Kbin/Mbin, created by @rimu@piefed.social and of course it's fully free and open source on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi
It has some cool features like “Topics”, which are basically groups of multiple communities that you can view all at once (similar to these Lemmy feature requests: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3071 https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1113).

I'm looking into setting up Mastodon instance for myself on a very minimal cloud server. To save resources on that box, I'd like to run the web interface on my own server at home, and only have the Mastodon backend running on the VPS. Is it possible to completely get rid of the web interface and only access the instance through the API? What's the best way to achieve this? Does anyone have experience with this, or do you know any useful resources?

beaconDB is a drop-in replacement for MLS, which uses the same format request that's used by Mozilla's Ichnaea.

The source code is available on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/beacondb/beacondb

You can contribute to the project by using an app like NeoStumbler (GitHub) or Tower Collector (GitHub) to submit location reports. NeoStumbler does Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GSM, while Tower Collector can only do GSM cell towers. Both are FOSS and available on F-Droid.

It is also recommended by the GrapheneOS project: https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/112759509558471713

https://grapheneos.org/articles/positon-location-service

Just keep in mind that it's still in relatively early development, which is why it really needs contributions.
