Gandi refuses to delete my account unless I upload a government ID, claiming that this is required under GDPR.
Pretty sure this is bullshit, especially because there's nothing for them to compare the ID to.
Only the idiots are left on GitHub.

Like with climate change, people will probably ho-hum and say, "Well, I'll be dead by then."

Stop making a commodity of artistic expression. There is no "good" and "bad" for art. There is only the expression, and whether or not it clicks for you.
The middle school band doesn't suck, they're building skills. The sculpture isn't terrible, you just don't see what the artist was going for, and that's OK.
Let expression just be expression; no need to give it a rating out of five stars. Doing so limits the power of human expression and cheapens the very concept of culture and the human experience.

Remember how everyone got into baking their own bread during lockdowns? If you can feed yourself by turning flour, water, and yeast into bread like a grain alchemist, you can cultivate your own digital garden as well!

New post: "A newbie's guide to self-hosting with #YunoHost. Part 1: reasons + requirements"
I can't believe my #selfhosting one year anniversary is coming up next week. @yunohost truly changed my digital life - for the better.
This is a 1st post in a 4 part miniseries intended for real newbies.
And now excuse me while I go hide in a cave expecting irate replies from sysadmins about certain things I wrote 😅
Dumb, dumber and dumberer.
