  • I’m tired of the argument that the solution to fight tracking/ads/subscription/gafam is self hosting.

    It’s a solution for some nice people that have knowledge, time and money for.

    But it’s not a solution for everyone.
    We need more small nice open source association and company that provide services for people that don’t know the difference between a web search engine and a navigator or just a server and a client. I think that initiatives like “les chatons” in France are amazing for that!!! ( https://www.chatons.org/en )

    And just to be clear, I think that self-hosted services are a part of the solution. :)




  • I discover the operator module! Amazing! 🤩

    The operator Module A third alternative to writing lambda functions is to use the standard library’s operator module. This module contains some predefined functions and function factories, which can replace the most common use cases for lambda functions. Let’s look at both of these separtaely, factories first. Another note: the function that attrgetter returns is implemented in C, so it’s slightly faster than using either a normal or lambda function.

    Useful if you want to speed up your code.












  • This, again to me, while slower, is preferable than being tied to the whims of a provider, e.g. Whatsapp, iMessage and telegram, does away with the market fragmentation (not competition) and gets rid off all the artificial bullshit like blue/ green bubbles, security lapses and image degredation between apps.

    Sooo true :/ I’m tired too!!

    Do you know an operator who provide this feature/protocol to his users?
