There’s so much out there because there’s no one (or even just a few) right way(s) to proceed. Everyone is unique, and so there’s are just as many paths to enlightenment. Just take a stab at whichever intro looks good to you, and if it doesn’t work for you then move on to another - they’ll all contribute to your knowledge even if they don’t fully work for you.

Not to be left behind, the west invests in an even faster next-gen train codenamed “snowpiercer.”

Up next: not to be left behind, the west invests in creating an even faster train - codenamed “Snowpiercer.”

Guess that’s why the vague range of days.

I bet there’s still some FORTRAN in use at NASA/JPL.

Alternatively, I’m pretty sure key parts of Excel were written in x86 assembly. Dunno if that’s still true.

Methinks you have too much faith in those wielding the power to demand this. Examples abound of assholes - anyone from forum mods to police officers - abusing their power against those they look down upon. Yeah, it often comes back on them eventually, but not always, and in the meantime the lives of those they target can be made a living hell if they so choose.

“Questionable activity” is an easily abused term for power-tripping assholes. Especially with right-wing politics becoming so prevalent world-wide, it’s easy (for example) to imagine a scenario where a group of LGBTQ+ types are targeted for harassment - being forced to choose between losing their safe haven or outing themselves & putting themselves at risk of far worse.

“Evidence” being so vague and malleable a term that it’s insanely easy to abuse.

Thing is Discord will have no problems getting them to do it. By the time any legal proceedings against it work their way through the legal system, the damage will long since have been done. Discord will have made the money from the data they collected, the AI models will be done, and the need for more pictures will be non-existent.

I didn’t mean to imply you didn’t have priorities, just that a couple of them seemed to be conflicting. To me, what you described called more for reliability than cutting edge. I understand your concern with getting security updates expediently, but you can get those with less system stability risk using a more standard distro.

I haven’t used a SUSE in a very long time, but as I recall Tumbleweed is an official product of theirs. I’ve not heard of Rhino until now, which gives me pause in considering it - let alone the fact it’s not backed by a known significant team. There’s nothing wrong with that, but when setting up a server like you’re describing I’d rather it not require a significant amount of time at random once I’ve got it up and running, which is what can happen when relying upon less vetted software.

It’s your choice, obviously. Rhino looks like it might make a nice desktop to play with, but I personally would really be hesitant to use it for a server because I just don’t have the time to deal with problems at random - I’ve got enough of those already in my life. Your priorities are obviously different, and there’s no denying the fact that even things going awry on your server can be a plus from a learning perspective. I would really be concerned with the project being abandoned since it’s just a year old, tho.

Good luck whichever way you choose to go.

I’m confused. Your OP seems to describe wanting something stable and “fault-tolerant,” but then you go and ask about an unofficial rolling distro? I think you should figure out what your priorities are first.

I think George Michael’s Freedom hit that mark like three decades ago. Became a huge hit (one of my all-time favorite songs). Still hasn’t changed a thing because the execs don’t care as long as it sells, and they get their money.

Ubuntu is debian-based, and their repositories are kept pretty up-to-date. They offer a server config.

Preface: Not the person you responded to.

I’ve never used Slackware myself, but it’s probably the oldest distribution out there. It’s supposed to be stable AF, doesn’t “fix” what ain’t broken, and is very old school in its efficiency mindset. This means it’s indeed not likely to hold your hand through things, but it’s also very thoroughly documented at this point, and any help you find online is much more likely to still (mostly) work regardless of it’s age - unlike most other more frequently updated distros. It’s meant to be reliable, not fancy.

There are a handful of other PeerTube-compatible apps on F-Droid already - just search for PeerTube.

There is a live-streaming unofficial app on F-Droid. A few other PeerTube apps exist, but the only other one that looks like it might support upload is this one. I don’t watch videos much, so I dunno.

Did a quick check, and there are already a handful of (non-official) apps on F-Droid supporting PeerTube. Not much of a video watcher myself, so I’ve no comment on their quality, but the Android options are already there.

Wooosh.

So… they banned social media for a whole 15 seconds?
