It’s fine for other people, but I wouldn’t want it for myself.

I couldn’t find any “about” info anywhere.

Who is the author of this response?

Came here to say pretty much the same thing. I basically already host “disroot” services for myself.

In terms of the US, it is simply impractical. The political will is nowhere near the level required, and won’t be for the foreseeable future. Agree or disagree, there are too many people for whom this right is not really negotiable. Within that context, yes, I own firearms even though I would really rather not. My right-wing neighbors certainly aren’t going to give theirs up, so I think it would be naive for me to.

I run it with Yunohost.

Do whatever the fuck you want to do. Most things aren’t irreversible at this point, and the future is never guaranteed anyway. Give your love generously. Tell your friends how you feel about them.

VPS is not that much, especially if you aren’t storing a ton of media. Digital Ocean and Hetzner are good places to look. This will also prevent some networking headaches you’re likely to have hosting it “on prem”.

If part of your reason for doing this is to involve the kids in the process, then it’s better to do it locally. Someone in the org has or can find an unused desktop computer that you guys can have fun with for pretty much zero cost. You will probably have trouble trying to connect to it from outside your network though.

I mean, couldn’t we all just join the KKK and vote in a more moderate grand dragon?

A friend of mine puts it this way: “I don’t vote for who’s turn it is to lead the KKK either.”

You’ve taught me this lesson only several comments ago. My eternal gratitude for this impartment of zen-like wisdom.

It’s the exact same thing, sweaty. All things are the same. Every person is the same. Every opinion is the same. Every death is the same.

That makes you just as bad as Charlie Kirk 🥸

I don’t give a shit what you think of me.

Charlie’s job was propaganda. He laundered the fascist ideology into mainstream discourse. If my coworker said some of the awful shit Charlie said, I’d just think he was a racist piece of shit, but I wouldn’t celebrate his murder (nor would I mourn it). But Charlie had an audience of millions, and was paid handsomely to spread his fascist propaganda. I opened my nicest bottle of scotch when I heard the news.

Looks like the shooter was also a fascist (groyper Nazi), so I’m not really cheering for him, but I am glad Charlie’s dead.

I’m comfortable with the comparison. If you insist on mythologizing the Nazis as a singular historical phenomenon, you will never recognize them anywhere else. Kirk professed Christianity, while mocking and condemning empathy as “new-age” and damaging. He called for the marginalization, incarceration and even murder of trans people. He was a cheerleader for the large scale paramilitary occupations of major cities. There are many examples of Kirk not simply “having conservative opinions”, but being paid handsomely by billionaires to amplify and normalize these messages of hate. That you think of him as someone “who was just right wing” illustrates the success he had in bringing his evil views into mainstream discourse.

Baby Goebbels.

I can think of few things more boring than databases. I just want my files synced and stored.

Love my Navidrome server, though I use Substreamer on Android since it’s “free” and free.
