Howdy

I’m new too but I separated by root and home partitions this last install to try and allow that.

ublock Origin + pihole.

For my pihole I use these lists: https://github.com/sefinek24/Sefinek-Blocklist-Collection

Ubuntu, Pop!_os, KDE… Currently on fedora. It’s been solid. I honestly think I like pop the most but I was having weird gpu issues which haven’t showed up over on fedora.

Same thing happened to me. Moved to pop!_os.I have zero regrets. I’ve learned a ton. I use tons of apps off f-droid and foss Ubuntu apps. I have degoogled most of my life. I’m also developing an Firefox addon for lemmy. It’s usable as a user script addon now. It’s called lemmytools. It’s my small contribution. All because Reddit got stupid. I don’t even browse reddit for answers usually about tech/programming stuff anymore because they block my VPN.

I did for awhile. For me, it wasnt worth the effort. Hot tip: go ahead and switch to blob storage for pictrs or your hosting fees are gonna get expensive quick.

Im pretty sure meta give zero removeds about joining the fediverse beyond trying to destroy it. I imagine they only started threads to nullify it by either proving it doesnt work (threads looks pretty garbage) or they want to control the content where mainstream fediverse will never take off.

Im here because i liked reddit but hated being a product. Meta/facebook was zero percent of that initial switch calculation as i havent been on their stuff for nearly a decade. The api shutdown ay the alien site was the last straw. I dont want to interact or give data to facebook/meta. Just my two cents.
