I’m so happy we have Pixelfed.ca today! Now canadians have an easy drop-in replacement to Instagram!
I believe Fedecan’s next project should be to set up a matrix instance to keep our comms secure within Canada.
Maybe right after a Friendica server? 😇
Friendica
Would that make it Friendicaca?
Obviously
I think we can both agree that the Peertube instance can come last as that would be the most difficult with the storage requirements.
Excellent! When pixelfed was growing I was going to join but abstained as there was no .ca instance yet. On and hoping to be active!
Find me @noveda for occasional bread/baking or dog content haha
What are the second and third icons from the left representing?
Fedecan, ?, ?, CBC, Lemmy.ca
The elephant is the mstdn.ca logo. Not sure about the mountains. It’s familiar, but I can’t place it.
That’s the Pixelfed.ca logo.
Thanks!
Any ideas for a Google Photos replacement service?
Selfhost your own instance of Immich. It’s an open source Google Photos clone, but with better features!
I use Syncthing to keep various folders synced between my desktop, laptop, phone and tablet.
Most of the folders are just between laptop and desktop (writing, art, etc…) and my phone’s camera folder is set up to share to the desktop so it syncs as soon as I take a picture.
Delpoy Nextcloud with the Memories app. It’s a google photos clone that has the Nextcloud ecosystem behind it which means you can replace Drive, Notes, Reader, Podcasts, Hangouts and more.
Am American. May I join?
Does anyone know where lemm.ee is hosted ?
Our servers are currently in Finland, but this is subject to change if necessary for financial/technical reasons. We’ve also used German servers in the past for example. In general we’re definitely staying in the EU, though.
Best I can find officially is “not the US”.
Lemm.ee servers are not hosted in the US and therefore not subject to US jurisdiction.
everything behind cloudflare these days 😡
Well, “.ee” is the country TLD for Estonia. Doesn’t guarantee it’s hosted there, though, and I have no idea what the rules for .ee domain names are (whether they’re restricted to residents or not). My guess would be “hosted somewhere in Europe”.
Is that an ocean train. Wut.
you never saw the movie 2012? it’s an ark
No. Why is an ark shaped like an aerodynamic train?
tbh, it’s a Roland Emmerich disaster movie. they don’t usually make a lot of sense
best watched with brain switched firmly off
Sounds like best not watched
It’s got cool visuals and a lot of action.
It’s not a complete waste of 2hrs 38mins
It’s bad in an entertaining way
As a Finnish-Canadian I’m all in on this trend. I’ve already switched out the majority of apps and subscriptions to European alternatives and have been buying European products for a while now, even chose the car with that as one of the criteria. I’d love to hear about good Canadian products that I could buy that are available in Europe.
