Instance admins can choose with which instance to federate, afaik our instance admins didn't censor any other instances. Some instances don't show in your timeline either because that instance is unaware of it or just federates with too many instances and you just didn't see toots of other instances because of spam. As for choosing instances most of them have some topic for debate or to relate to but in general you can toot whatever you want, I choose this one becase of topic.

He's been doing philantropy over a long course of years, there was even article that he saved more lives as rich person than Batman. His only sin is Windows, and rejection of open source.
@Vortax
I feel you, you can't convince them to use Signal and even harder to use different OS which is for non techie same as Windows, they only use it for web browsing. What is your brother doing mostly on his computer? If its web browsing then Mint or Ubuntu are great for him. You can try to sell it as "non-malware" OS, and faster experience overall. If he is gaming then there is nothing you can do to persuade him, you will make him even hate Linux.

There are ways of staying more or less private, there is no need to be that hopeless. If there are no good privacy practices we wouldn't have Snowden and Wikileaks

Setting Up PiHole, Wireguard VPN server and Client (Ubuntu Server)
WireGuard is an extremely simple yet fast and modern VPN that utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography. It aims to be faster, simpler, leaner, and more useful than IPSec, while avoiding the massive headache.
Maybe you don't like Bill Gates but he is the man that donates money and resources into noble causes. One of them is ERADICATING THE GODDAMN MOSQUITOES, and not just ones with malaria.

I've just setup dnscrypt on my pihole, looking good so far.

little rant about Apple
@utf8equalsX
If his device support some decent ROM, yes.

I think I convinced my brother to help him install Ubuntu since he is having problems with Windows activation, I hope he doesn't get cold feet, he is not so tech savvy and he thinks that he needs some extra knowledge for Linux. He will need some Linux distro soon because he will have projects on his faculty which require it, better to start learning sooner than later.

NextCloudPi is a Nextcloud instance that is preinstalled and preconfigured, and includes a management interface with all the tools you need to self host your private data in a single package.
This is an official open source community project that aims at making it easier for everyone to have control over their own data.

@kemonine
Mine for example, impact on resources usage is not too great, but I guess with more clients connected you might have higher memory usage

So, in terms of matter and antimatter integral of sinx from 0 to 2pi is not 0, but energy? (x is time, y is matter)
