#Deshitification: #Syncthing / #SyncTrain is set to become one of my favourite tools alongside #Logseq. #Data synchronisation without #BigTech #Cloud #Synchronisation. Of course, the #Apple / #iOS crap is particularly fiddly and limited again. I have completely disabled #iCloud. #privacy
Let's do some #DeShitification: I want to switch to #GrapheneOS by the end of the month. Let's see if I can manage it. #Google and Co. are increasingly becoming hell! #CyberSecurity #Privacy

Does a challenge exist that entices influencers to move off corporate social media? If not who would be the best people to start with?
Something like the ice bucket challenge but moving from corporate social media to open social media.

Do your HTML pages, coding html by hand. It's not that hard. CSS is cool but a web page should still be readable without the CSS. #deshitification
@cw @pluralistic maybe also with #deshitification and #enshitification, consider adding tags to the spelling Cory Doctorow used, and possibly a lot more people on the internet would find it easier. Not knocking anyone's spelling variations, just trying to boost your signal further because I agree! -- hope you don't mind me adding the main ones I've seen around. #enshittification #deshittification #deshittify #enshittified #enshitty #enshittocene #enshittening

An aperiodic reminder that if you're using Google for search then it's better to use the AI deshitifaction 'Konami' code 🙂

For browsers with customisable search then this can be used as the default to ensure that the utter bollocks AI nonsense isn't shown in results 😁🖖

A quick way to get an AI-free search without any extra work.

#deshitification It turns out that TubeArchivist runs fine on a RasperryPi.

But a full Django+ES(!) app as a wrapper around some cron+yt-dlp fiddling still feels like overkill.

Unfortunately, there is no Emby integration.

Jellyfin has a plugin, but does not support background playing, at least on iPhone + does not support ChromeCast.

#deshitification Good old duplicity now backing up the local media Raspi to S3 (with Glacier Instant Retrieval storage class for $4/TB/month):

AWS_PROFILE=mediageloet-backup duplicity --s3-use-glacier-ir --full-if-older-than 1M --include / --exclude '**' / boto3+s3://BUCKET/backup/

Here's a good blog post explaining the details: https://jnidzwetzki.github.io/2022/08/07/backup-to-s3-with-duplicity.html

Backup your Data encrypted to AWS S3 using Duplicity

No one wants to create backups; everyone just wants to be able to restore data – that’s the old saying in IT. However, to be able to restore data, backups need to be created on a regular basis. To ensure that major disasters can be survived, the backups should be stored in a different location. In this article, the software Duplicity is used to create automated backups and store them on an AWS S3 bucket in the AWS cloud. These backups are encrypted using GPG.
