Omg... Haha. I love it.
Haha, I wish I knew when I created mine.
Bro, why do you have emojis in your username?
Unfortunate and sad. I'm glad fediverse is a thing and getting traction now. It was hard for me to think how one can compete with the giants of the internet and it was evident that smaller organisations don't stand a chance but thousands of people and small orgs hosting manageable instances that talk to each other is an amazing idea. I hope the fediverse becomes the mainstream way of experiencing the internet.
Honestly seeing all the corpos ruining the platforms that are what they are because millions of people contributed to them. Youtube, Reddit, Twitter, etc. give so much power to their owners yet they don't realize it past their next dollar. I think internet should have always been a fediverse instead of what it has become.
Currently doing the same. I liked Connect but navigation is a bit confusing so for now sticking with Jerboa. Gonna give other apps a try while I wait for Boost for Lemmy.
I've played around with Syncthing but stopped using it after a short while for no specific reason. Maybe I'll give it another shot.
I use KeePass (more specifically KeePassXC). I manually copy my password files around like a caveman but I don't mind. At least my kdbx files are not accessible easily.
