it is easy to have 1500+ passwords, I’m online since 1996 :-) and use a password manager like keepass, some sites died, others are still online, i have multiple mailbox, twitter, facebook. it goes up really fast!

not counting also all SSO with google, apple, and now my own pocketid selfhosted domain :-)

I will have to remove also those 50+ google authentificator TOTP and replace them with passkeys…

BTW, it is recommended to use single password per service sinces more than 20 years now, so without a password manager it is impossible to create new accounts. i started in firefox, then chrome password manager, then keepassX …

I’m selfhosting most of my stuff now and did closed 500 accounts, still 960 to review. It take times but I always while closing enter a comment like “lost confidence in USA for the next 50 years thanks to Trump” BTW most services don’t let you delete your account, in this case I empty all my personal data, upload blank images for profile, anonymize field, move email to temp mailbox and delete my password.

I did some architecture and implementation to Azure for a big client, now moved to pure AKS with only OSS software, nest step for them is to quit US cloud, a lot easier if you use pure kubernetes.

I think it is good that we reduce our reliance on US stacks, but not at the cost of using Chinese softwares.

Deleting Reddit, instagram, facebook was really the easiest and most satisfying of all.

I plan to organize meetup on sovereignty, privacy and self hosting soon too 😇

try also https://www.affinity.studio/ by Canva, free and run on linux great

wait spin a docker container with navidrome and another docker with aonsoku web player and call it done or use any subsonic compatible clients. And this work anywhere!

Apps, always with apps, most app in ubuntu store are not the latest version, nor reviewed or crypto signed for safety. Then you still have to deal with RPM or Deb or flatpack …

There is no good frontend for the clamav antivirus that is maintained! yes we may not need an antivirus but if you want one, you have to go command line. As an old ace developer, this is not an issue for me, but yeah at home I don’t want to use that knowledge nor can recommend linux to newbies.

Maybe a easy to use frontend for docker app is missing (nono I use portainer) but something more easier like the defunct CasaOS for beginner to install decentralized apps is also something that could promote Linux a lot. Ubuntu could also hide docker app in its store, just telling users that they should not let their notebook or computer go to sleep if they install server app like immich or jellyfin
