Why someone keeps chasing the latest gadgets when the old ones work just fine is beyond me.

Nobody is waiting every year for the brand new line of washing machines. Why is there a need to swap phones this frequently?

Sounds like the best way to cripple your scientific and tech sector.

I see you already have an answer using podman.

But don’t be afraid of the command line. If you can copy/paste a few commands, it’s pretty easy to set up.

I honestly find installing docker harder than to start a locally hosted searxng instance.

Also, something like self-hosting your own email is way harder and requires a lot more maintenance. I’d leave that project to further down the line.

Not sure it will solve your problem, but if you’re not happy with the public SearXNG instances, you can run your own instance of SearXNG on your local machine, and even set up custom filters and redirects to get rid of SEO junk.

Any kind of government-funded body.

Any infrastructure or communication channels that has taxpayer money involved should be built on FOSS. Not only for security/control, but to avoid vendor lock as well.

I love blogs, specially from people with niche interests and experiences. I follow them via RSS. So that’s what I read outside of Lemmy / Reddit / Mastodon.

Recently I’ve been following the blog written by an IT guy working in a research station in Antarctica (also has a great domain name).
