Yes. Last summer I sold Residential Fiberoptic Internet access. One of the main selling points was the "wireless mesh system". It was 3-6 pods placed inside of your home and an optional phone app. The system could be set up and enabled to tell you if there was movement when no person living there was home.

The manufacturer was Plume.

This is a desperately needed event. I was talking to my friends about how the internet has become so horribly concentrated to just a few mega-tech corporations. It has stifled innovation and creative freedom. The web has been strangled by the limitations of corporate greed.

Rexxit is awesome!

I can search for communities in the little list box at the bottom. I have absolutely no idea how to search for posts or comments (other than using DuckDuckGo or whatever).

 

If you have time, the ArchiveTeam Warrior runs easily in VirtualBox.

Also, you can request a copy of your personal data from reddit at (useful if you wish to delete your account):

That is awesome. Thank you for explaining the formatting!

Perfect! Thank you so much.

Dual boot Ubuntu/Win10 on one, and dual boot Mint/Win7 on another. If I can secure a stable internet connection I will switch the last machine to a server.

I'm a CS major, so I need all the experience I can get. I prefer Linux machines because I think the OS is superior in a number of ways.

Can you point me to the FOSS/Linux community? I'm actually looking for that too.

I'm also new here and I love it! I stopped really interacting with anyone or making content on reddit a few years ago. Federated instances are so much fun. I am inspired again.

FYI, r/LemmyMigration is not accessible from the web unless you are logged in. A pop-up directs you to log in or go to r/all.

That is a great way to look at it. I left FB at least 10 years ago. I ended up arguing with a family member and realized how pointlessly stupid the entire platform was for me. I didn't use social media other than reddit for nearly a decade.

It's just time to move on to the next thing. It's weird because that jump has to happen with other people but not too many.
