Absolutely based. I’m working on it to be like you, man.
I tried editing my config.yml as the guide suggests but the problem persists. The problem seems to be that I’m using MariaDB instead of MySQL (pdo_mysql is compatible with MariaDB). Is there anything more I can do or should I try installing MySQL?
EDIT: Purging MariaDB (Debian repo ships this instead of MySQL) and reinstalling it with sudo apt install default-mysql-server fixed the problem. Thank you.
Do you have any info on Viber being a bad service privacy-wise? It’s a lesser-known messenger that prides itself on its privacy policy but I can’t find any info on it being the case or not.

I just simply sent a message to everyone I kept in touch on Telegram to switch to Matrix/Element and guided them through the registration to a local homeserver thanks to one of my friends’ blog posts.
The easiest way to convince your friends to switch is to just make the switch and help them sign up and use the service.
It’s completely open and it’s just another fee you can pay. Switch to KeePass if you want restriction-free password management.
This site covers the social cooling effect of these services and how the data you give out may be used against you by banks, insurance companies etc. It’s worth reading through (4 minutes). https://www.socialcooling.com/
Which TED talk are you talking about? Can you post a link?

I recommend checking out mLauncher which is a fork of Olauncher with additional features like changing font size or removed internet permission.
I use mLauncher, a fork of OLauncher. I like how simple and clean my screen is.
Speaking about notifications, did you check out your phone’s battery conserving settings? My friends having a Samsung or Xiaomi also have this issue due to aggressive restrictions on less-used apps. You can find more info and workarounds here: https://dontkillmyapp.com
Renoise is an excellent tracker-based DAW with Linux support (you still have to find Linux-compatible VSTs though). It changed the way I write music.
EDIT: I know there are FOSS trackers like MilkyTracker. If you want an alternative, I can recommend it, even though it doesn’t offer the same amount of features as Renoise (e.g. VST or effect support).
I use ListenBrainz for a libre alternative.
For me, it’s the lack of a replaceable battery and the lack of an SD card slot. Otherwise, it would be a perfect phone to tinker with software-wise with all the custom ROMs that are available for Pixels.
Yes, you can set a timer when you want Locus to share the location (every Monday and Tuesday from 8-20 for example, but you can set it to 24/7 if you input the times right).
What does OTR mean in this context?
