social media is anything but and mastodon has not ever been and will not ever be better than twitter or any similar contrived microblogging platform for as long as it retains the favourite button

seems like i've been stuck on seafile 9 since who knows when and now they're up to version 14 and docker is a requirement. looks like upgrading / migrating will be a pain and not worth it.

nextcloud looks to do everything i want (i remember only giving up on it in favour of seafile becaue of how slow it ran on my 4th gen i5 server a decade ago) but i'm not keen on how bloated and ai-happy it looks today.

what other self-hosted file/docs cloud are people using today?

Like the rest of the World Wide Web, they didn't go away. We did.

We got lured away from the World Wide Web into the shiny and green walled gardens. Now we forgot what's beyond that wall, and we're only just noticing that the garden's flowers are wilted and its grass is long since dead.

The World Wide Web is still there, only diminished by our absence and invisible behind the walls of the worst tech corporations selling us a utopia that isn't.

have you heard of #webgbcam ?

it's a web tool (PWA even, add it to your home screen!) that uses your device's cameras to simulate the look of the game boy camera! you can record short gifs with it and there's also a 1bpp atkinson dithering mode!

i wish one tenth of the thousands of people who posted and reblogged about especially during its viral phase when it launched had sent me the internet equivalent of a postcard
