I've DeAmazoned another device, a Echo Show 5 1st Gen this time. I wish I could find an 8 inch variant, I know it's rootable as well. I wish there were better launcher options for these sorts of devices.

In pieno processo di #deAmazon-izzazione, vi condivido una roba figa che ho fatto:

- ho preso un vecchio Amazon Echo Show (2a Gen) -> jailbreak, root, e c'ho messo LineageOS
- ho tirato su un server di Home Assistant su rete locale per gestire le mie lampadine smart
- sempre in locale, ho tirato su due server satellite per HA: uno TTS e uno STT
- ho installato le companion app di Home Assistant e View Assist, impostato le viste di default e l'assistente vocale

LineageOS on my newly Amazonless Echo Show 5 2nd Gen. It's much snappier with it. I've already set up a Subsonic and a Home Assistant server, my next mission is Immich.

Finally got rid of Amazon's spy software on my Echo Show 5 2nd Gen (What a mouthful!) and replaced it with LineageOS 18.1. Wouldn't you figure, it's suddenly much snappier! I finally got around to putting Navidrome on my server for my music strteaming needs!

Wow. Das nenne ich mal Boykott! Neil Young ist halt einfach stabil.

I just bought my first ebook outside of the Amazon 'ecosystem'! Tracey Nicholls' An Ethics of Improvisation.

- Found it on https://www.ebook.de/de
- Managed it via Calibre
-Added it to Zotero

It was *much more expensive* than on Amazon, but we all know how Amazon keeps their prices so incredibly low, therefore supporting an EU-based infrastructure felt like doing the right thing.

So far it seems a wonderful book.
