I'm low key considering buying a #TV to watch my favorite shows and play some switch games With my daughter.
I never owned a TV and just want to stream and game
I'm also considering building a Linux TV thing (with #kodi?).
Is there a specific tech that's worth buying? Are there brands to avoid?
Are there dumb TV at all?
Please enlighten me

I'm thinking that my next cellphone might be a Fairphone. I've generally tried to shop wisely for phones, and mostly I've been quite successful. They generally last me at least five years each, often a year or two longer.
I go with as close to vanilla Android as much as possible, with high RAM and good specs - never top-tier phones, but solid mid-range phones. I don't buy from Samsung, because I have no interest in having crapware foisted on me or helping a corporation violate my privacy.
My current phone is a OnePlus 6T, which is still running solidly after nearly seven years. But Carl Pei left OnePlus some time ago, and OnePlus has apparently gone downhill as a result.
The Fairphone sounds appealing, but I'm concerned that I might have to switch carriers. Meanwhile my son is pulling for a Pixel; I'd rather avoid doing business directly with Google because they're so fucking evil.
So...suggestions? Thoughts?
Thanks!

Bon, ben appel à l'aide, hein. Si parmi celleux que j'ai l'honneur de compter parmi mes lect⋅eur⋅rice⋅s se trouvent des personnes très compétentes en PHP et Nginx, j'avoue que je serais assez preneur de conseils relatifs au fonctionnement de ces machins-là, et notamment savoir comment optimiser les bouzins pour ne pas envisager un serveur à 300 boules par mois dans un datacenter chais pas où pour héberger un site connecté au fediverse mono-utilisateur.

CW: re: Guide to Hashtagging | Making it Easy
Even with all this in mind, it's easy to feel as though hashtagging is still overwhelming because of everything you have to look up. However, if you consistently draw or post things with overlapping themes, the process for tagging new posts can become easier as you get a more assembly line approach to it. When I tag my art posts, my thought process is tagging for my Constants,. basic Variants, and Key, Traits.
Constants would be what is always consistent for my character I'm posting for and my organization. #BeebzArt #TristeMiedo #catboy #OC.
Variants are what I use for what I think would be the most commonly searched objective truth about the drawing #furry #fursona #anthro #kemono.
Traits are pretty much anything else that I think would be the appealing thing someone would look for that would be appreciated in my work for one reason or another. It's also to help peoples filters who dont want to see these traits properly hide the posts so I dont make anyones day worse, heh.#femboy #nudity #ass *#chubby
Image attached for a practical example of how i did this :3

CW: re: Guide to Hashtagging | What do I Hashtag For?
In my opinion, its good practice to evaluate your posts and define the objective aspects of it. As an Example this could be Gender, Species, Kink, Theme, but those categories can be whatever you want. (It is at least good to CW and/or hashtag kinks or themes people may like to avoid, because even though your post would be filtered, not only does it not get you flack from someone who didn't wanna see it, you intrigue people who ARE interested to have a look)
If you had fanart from a show with 2 characters in a ship you like, the objective truths about the art you can tag for would be Name of the show, character names, ship name, or even what AU the picture is! Its your blog you can use hashtags to find your posts again too!
For organization sake I try to put the categories of my hashtag all together in order so I'd have something like Numbers, Alphabet, Double Digits It'd be like #1 #2 #3 #a #b #c #10 #25 #42 This is completely optional and order does not matter for visibility, its just something i like to do to keep organized

Hey Fedi,
I'm considering buying a pair of Demonia Swing boots (or some cheaper knock-off) in patent, but I would love to know if somebody has any experience in them, if the wedge is uncomfortable, durability...
I already own a pair of Trashvilles that have served well but after 6 years they're starting to rip and the patent is crumbling.
Can you or anybody you know give some advice? Thanks!

I want to add OpenGraph metadata with images to my blog so that when you link it, on social sites, you get a nice little preview panel. HOWEVER, I fear the “Mastodon effect” will either bring down my site or run up my bill. Are there specific things I can do with my site setup to minimize the “Mastodon effect”? I use Eleventy to generate a static site which is hosted on Netlify. I have a hunch Netlify can handle whatever I throw at it, but I fear getting a big surprise bill.

Any recommendations for a USB dock for MacBook Air? Need Display Port or HDMI & a few usb A ports for periphs. Something that looks aesthetically pleasing would be appreciated.
