Gitea and Forgejo are the way to go. Especially Forgejo which is working on federation just like Lemmy but for Forgejo repos and instances.

epik offers lifetime plans for some domain names and is a Swiss company.

Use this site and look for the “Open source” tag and double check the source code is available on every piece of software you find.

There are other public Jitsi Meet instances out there anyone can use without an account.

Never seen a Tauri app yet. Looks very promising. I shall bookmark this for the future.

Anyone can share files using send.

Looks like an alternative to Send

I use Filen. Not sure if it works with large files however. Filen is E2EE.

I think you can self host firefox sync and brave sync.

Been using forcastie for years and I like it. However there are plenty good apps I am sure on F-Droid.

I think Joplin is the best too, but I wish they will rewrite their app using Tauri or flutter for better performance and native app integration. Feature wise it is the best one that is FOSS.

Its volunteer work, not slave labour. If you work for a company developing OSS, just like any other job you can quit anytime.

Thank you for sharing sources and that funny meme.

Personally antivirus is more of a scam these days. If your using Linux, Android, MacOS or iOS your fine. Maybe you can benefit a little bit with one on Windows.

Just have good security practice. Do not go to sketchy sites, do not download sketchy files and especially do not install and run sketchy things. And do not weaken the built in security of your system like disabling the firewall for example.

In the 1990s, 2000s and early 2010s there was a case for antivirus but computers have come a long way since then.

Besides anti virus programs are mostly closed source and have full access to your device. Allowing them to scan your files and many of these products probabily work with three letter intellegence agencies all across the world to collect data from consumers of these anti virus products.

There has been some rumors that anti virus companies have created malware and released it to the world to drive up sales and demand for their products.

I imagine users, comments and perhaps pull requests.

I also recommend forgejo. They are also working on adding a federation feature to forgejo just like Lemmy has!

Thank you for sharing. Self hosted email server does not sound so bad after all.
