Not particularly, and while I admit this can seem hypocritical, the verb “to google” has just become a generic trademark.
When someone says band-aid, or kleenex, or jello, I think of bandages, tissues, or gelatin desserts, not of a specific brand of these products. Same goes with “googled”, it just means “searched the web” now rather than specifically using Google.
Yeah I’ve noticed this user basically inserts a “kagis” into like 2/3 of their comments, it always slightly irks me because it makes me feel like I’m getting advertised at. I’ve never felt the need to proclaim which search engine(s) I’ve used to research any particular comment on Lemmy, and I find it odd that the one person who does so regularly is doing it for a paid service.
Apart from that, their comments are usually pretty good, so I’m not accusing them of shilling or anything, but I find it super peculiar.
Thanks for not participating in the vehicular arms race!
I think this advice made more sense when the majority drove reasonably-sized vehicles rather than the huge trucks and SUVs that pollute our roads now (at least in North America).
I wouldn’t be surprised if this bit of advice contributes to the problem in OP.
If I were having high-stakes conversations, I might agree, but any slight delays in updates is unlikely to affect me. I’m not a high-stakes target of any sort.

Oops, all FOSS! :)
The only proprietary apps that see regular use on my phone are my banking app and Spotify.
I just took an edible and it’s starting to kick in, but I still want to figure this out.
Getting stoned and getting the magic rocks in my homelab to do my bidding is one of my favourite ways to use up my time on this Earth.
I like Fluent Reader, it looks nice, can fetch full articles, and IIRC caches them locally for offline viewing, don’t quote me on that last one though.
When you post a link, you can add a thumbnail image URL! In the default lemmy-ui, it should be right under where you upload an image :)
I got a new job, and the group chat is on WhatsApp, so I’m looking into running a Synapse server with a bridge to it. I really don’t want to have to use Meta’s apps on my phone.
From what I’ve read so far, it seems like it’s going to be the most convoluted install process I’ll have encountered in my self-hosting journey. I’m excited to tackle it, but also a bit overwhelmed. Which is why I’ve been putting it off :P
Any ports used in docker will be open on your computer and accessible to any device in your network.
However, to open up a port to the internet, you’d have to do port-forwarding on your router. If you haven’t done that, any incoming connections will just be dropped at the router-level.
That’s actually so cool and the more I think about it the more it’s making me really want to host my own Lemmy instance. Can I ask what sort of hardware resources you’re running it on?
I’m reading it so I’d say it works!
They meant pinging your server from another device, I assume.
What error(s) do you get when you try to SSH into your server?
By “can’t access containers”, I assume you mean via devices you’re trying to connect to the server with? Can you still access the stuff you’re running in the containers directly on the server via localhost?
I’ll echo what the other commenter’s have said and you need to give us more info. “I added two containers” is pretty much useless if that’s all we have to go off of to start troubleshooting. More details on what exactly you did, any troubleshooting steps you’ve already tried, what specific errors you get, etc.
I can only assume it’d be a bridge for Nextcloud Talk.
I was having issues getting my Android device to use my local DNS server over VPN, what worked for me was setting it up through RethinkDNS. There’s a setting to prevent DNS leaks by capturing all traffic on port 53 and directing it to the DNS server you set. It doesn’t feel like an elegant solution but hey, it works.
Note, you’ll have to make sure your private DNS setting is off, in the internet section of the system settings.
I love reading Spanish as a native French speaker, it’s like trying to read French on drugs. I kinda understand but I really don’t.
