Today, you can get some more insights about the ProxLB project at the Dutch Proxmox Day 2025, hosted by our friends Tuxis (tuxis.nl)! Even I cannot make it, I'm really happy to know that my mate @formorer@rollenspiel.social (from @credativde@mastodon.social) is stepping in for me to provide you more information and details about ProxLB and its functions!

Together, we can improve and create a fully open source based virtualization environment, fitting all needs - and Proxmox is a perfect base! And we will also see some more talks from Tuxis (tuxis.nl), Proxmox Server Solutions, ESA and Veeam Software.

With #Linux you don't need to create an online account to set up or enjoy your new operating system.

As it should be.

It's that simple.

Reason 5 To Choose Linux 😍

Education!

Learn how your technology works! #Linux 🐧 empowers anyone to learn their systems and experiment.

Linux is #FreeSoftware #OpenSource. The source code is open for all, and you are encouraged to explore and contribute.

With proprietary software, you need permission to access the code that runs your digital life.

Linux? The software is available to learn from and improve. For everyone. Always.

A “hello world” program, a common first program for people learning C. The program prints “Hello World!” on the screen.

#ntfy version 1.17.8 is out on @fdroidorg, fixing the problem.

→ KDE is now my favorite desktop
https://kokada.dev/blog/kde-is-now-my-favorite-desktop/

“[A]fter using KDE for a while I am starting to really appreciate how good it is. And no, this is not compared to other Linux desktops, but also with both Windows and macOS […].”

KDE is a great example of how much better UI/UX can be in FOSS (free and opensource softwares) when it has the means to do so.

GitHub’s relevance as a development platform is rapidly devolving: I have gotten more spam on there and through there in the past couple of weeks than I will get in an entire year or two, and Copilot means they just don’t care.

Open Source deserves new homes. I’ll continue moving my projects away.

I'm selfhosting a cctv system, Frigate.

Two ip cameras and an old laptop.

I was able to check on my cats while I was on vacations. Really cool.

The only problem is that I couldn't find free/open ip cameras. I got two proprietary cameras that work with proprietary (and poorly written) android apps. Had to use and old phone to set up the cameras, the rstp:// urls and static ip addresses. I hated every minute I spent on that app.

But frigate was really easy to install and configure. Sadly, it's linux-centric, like most of modern foss.

I've got to say, I completely agree with you.

You might completely trust the current leadership of Signal now. Still, centralizing all it's users in one place, with a such a powerful identifier as a phone number, on American Google servers no less, just makes it too tempting a target for governments and even future leadership.

I'd rather trust that code is publicly visible, hosted by me with data stored in thousands of places to disincentivize bad actors.

There are issues, but mainly ones that improve with success. Centralization gets even worse.

With the US speedrunning fascism and other places trying to copy them, it's never been more important to keep the communications of your friends and loved ones securely in your own hands.

Fucking people! STOP! If you do a #tutorial for #Linux or any #FOSS app on fucking #YOUTUBE, just to subject me as a captive audience to whatever fucking fadish content creator get rich scheme there is today...I'm not fucking watching your video! I'm not going to sit there just to find the ONE fucking thing I'm looking for. Just do a goddamned #blog
