We’re DECSystem10, though sinza is a convenient singular entity that we tend to use I as. We are a plural collective!
I enjoy retrocomputing and find that NetBSD is awesome! In general I prefer BSD to Linux actually.
I enjoy getting old computers to talk to each other, as well as alternatives to the web where possible like Gopher, Gemini, and Spartan!
A quick look at the sidebar and hovering over, one of the moderators of this community appears to be a lemmy.world admin if that’s what you mean.
Considering how big lemmy.world is, I’d guess it’s more a bit of overlap than it being the same people.
For VPN I do like AirVPN a lot.
I do currently use Bitwarden for my 2FA as well as my passwords, though I should look into Ente Auth.
I’ll be honest, I forget that NodeBB has become federated. Despite having run into an actual incompatibility problem between Piefed and NodeBB. 😅
So if you create a link post Piefed onto a NodeBB section, which looks like a community from my end, the link doesn’t show up.
I personally use Lemmy/Piefed/Mbin/etc. for social news rather than bolted on forum-like features. That’s where I think this software shines.
If you want a decentralized forum, I’d seriously recommend you look at Usenet and NNTP. Then again, I promote the usage of network protocols for what they are good at over forcing everything through the web. 😂
Definitely a very good post.
It reminds me of Chimera Linux’s stance on systemd, which I found to be the best explanation on systemd before these blog posts.
Not my instance (I’m posting from PieFed lol), but I noticed that lemmy.blahaj.zone has five UIs, including mlmym, set up.
I can second AirVPN. I’ve never had an issue with it, at least one that wasn’t ultimately user error.
It does.
