100%. Lemmy just happens to have the communities I’m interested in.

I remember trying to move to Mastodon years ago. But the main topics in my feed were furries, transgenders and activists.

Not hating on any of those, but it just wasn’t what I was interested in at the time, so I quit the whole microblogging thing altogether and spent more time on Reddit.

The audacity

Oof. Didn’t know that was the case. That’s rough.

Get a custom domain so that your new email address isn’t tied to Proton. If Proton goes to shit it will be much easier to just take mail@mulcahey.com with you to your new email provider. I wish I had done this with Gmail so that it would’ve been easier to move to Proton.

😂 one can dream

“It’s not European (yet?), but Canadian”

What do you know that we don’t know 👀. Would love for Canada to join the Union ❤️.

The title indicates that Signal was cooperating with Ukraine in the past and decided to stop doing so. But that seems misleading if they were never able to cooperate in the first place?!

Edit: without more info on Signal’s previous responses, this article is not saying much.

“The encrypted messaging app Signal has stopped responding to requests from Ukrainian law enforcement regarding Russian cyberthreats, a Ukrainian official claimed”

Thanks for sharing! I hadn’t come across this article yet.

I have yet to explore Italy and other parts of Europe. I’m a big fan of British Columbia in Canada. Lots of beautiful nature to explore over there.

But def love a lasagna 🤤

Sounds amazing!

Teenage Engineering has some cool speakers as well.

I’m not in the market for headphones, but these seem good on paper. Wonder how the noise cancellation compares to alternatives.

Is it me or are they missing a usb-c mini in their lineup?

Where did you guys land in Italy?

Thanks! Will have a look.

Great suggestions, thanks so much! Had no idea that Generate.fm is open source. And Blanket is new to me, but seems to do exactly what I’m looking for.

Thanks, this looks cool!

I think ‘white noise’ was not the best term. I’m looking for background sounds like rain and cafe sounds. 😅

TIL they’re Estonian. I somehow thought they were part of Google, but that seems incorrect. Will replace Uber for good then!

I just looked into Deezer, but seems that they don’t pay artists well either. Have you considered Qobuz?

Still on Apple Music myself, but exploring option.

+1 This is why I moved my family over to Signal, despite it being an American company.

Another benefit is that it’s gaining some serious traction with a lot of people now moving to Signal. Makes it easier for family members to move as well.
