I absolutely agree, and I too hate this stupid idea of “good code documenting itself” and “comments being unnecessary”.
I have a theory where this comes from. It was probably some manager, who has never written a single line of code, who thought that comments were a waste of time, and employees should instead focus on writing code. By telling them that “good code documents itself”, they could also just put the blame on their employees.
“Either you don’t need comments or your code sucks because it’s not self-documenting”
Managers are dumb, and they will never realize that spending a bit of time on writing useful comments may later actually save countless hours, when the project is taken over by a different team, or the people who initially created it, don’t work at the company anymore.

I don’t know. Anyway, DankPods is awesome, there’s a great Lemmy community dedicated to his channel: [email protected]

I love it

Safari has a reader mode

It’s because of the encryption, any encrypted email provider has this issue, it’s not specific to Proton

SSL is not E2EE

It only works through the Proton Mail Bridge application, which is only available for desktop. That’s because Proton’s end-to-end encryption makes it impossible to access your emails while they are on Proton’s servers via IMAP. They would need to be decrypted on the server, but that would make the entire encryption pointless. The Proton Mail Bridge connects to the server, downloads the encrypted data, decrypts it locally on your PC and locally exposes an IMAP server, which contains your decrypted messages.

Hydroxide was specifically created as a free replacement for the official Proton Mail Bridge, so no, it doesn’t require a subscription

Let’s not forget the dozens of big tech companies run by absolute morons that bring products that nobody wants or needs and only stay afloat due to legacy, stealing data & selling it, and/or venture capital.

You just described Twitter/X

I prefer Tailscale Funnel for these kinds of things. NetBird and ZeroTier also work just fine if you don’t want to expose your services to the public.

If you use 9.9.9.9, you should try Mullvad DNS (with adblocking) or AdGuard Public DNS

I recommend lemmy-ansible or the Docker install guide.

According to the roadmap, the project will get open-sourced before the end of 2024, so there is some hope.

I hope they implement ActivityPub, so it can federate with BookWyrm

Yeah, that’s exactly what the 3-2-1 rule says.

• 3 copies of your data
• 2 different kinds of storage media
• 1 off-site backup

Both Piped and Invidious have CC, but unfortunately no queue support.

But it can’t be self-hosted, right?

Perhaps NetBird, ZeroTier or Tailscale? If you want to make a service available publicly, check out Tailscale Funnel.

I’ve been using TubeSync, but I switched to Tube Archivist. Works very well, I’m happy with it.

I don’t recommend Debian for Apple Silicon, just stick with Asahi Linux. There aren’t any big issues, except the fact that not all Docker images are built for arm64.

You can even self-host it and use it with Nextcloud.
