I really like andors manifesto as a take on how to have radical hope in a world that individualizes us, is gettjng more and more authoritarian and is soo much against our dreams and hopes.

I would suggest a baikal server: https://sabre.io/baikal/docker-install/it's made from.the ones making radicle and sabre, one of the kost used open source caldav/carddav servers. Yes it can sync calendars too

It's technically possible, but windows doesn't give you as the user tools to do so. If you donÄt want windos to have the ability to do so you could use full system encryption like: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system

yep: https://yunohost.org/#/

don't use google. basically any engine is better. I would recommend using a searxng instance. Soi that nobody can ever enshittify it ever again

okay, honestly: a dating app yes there are a couple foss ones, but basically no one uses them and their ux is horrible

yunohost it's basically an os that easily lets you selfhost, by having an extremely big amount of selfhosted services packaged with scripts that autonatically set everything up and all of that trough a clear and modern web interface.

first just messing around with it, then starting selfhosting and then i started to dualboot just for fun, and one day i by mistake nuked my windows installation, so now i'm a full time linux user

you can do anything without ever using a desktop environment

okay basically so many things sooo much better, first of all i can change any part of software of the os for any other one i like. I can fix my installation no matter how broken it is as long as the filse system is still intact.
