Can we host it ourselves a la Mastodon / Lemmy / Fediverse stuff?

What part of this is self-hosted?

Embrace, extend, extinguish. They’ll play nice with the Fediverse for a while. Maybe years. But then they’ll introduce a new feature to the Fediverse as a “good will gesture”. Then they’ll make features available to only people federated with Threads. Then they’ll make features only people on Threads can see. And so on and so forth. We SHOULD care where the content comes from. Platforms that are neutral should be where our content comes from.

You should. If they’ll literally stop talking to you over an app choice how good of friends are they?

I felt like winget was too limited. When I last used it it didn’t support installing multiple apps at the same time. scoop feels much more like traditional *nix package management to me, which I like.

Some items trigger UAC (installing tailscale, for example)

I love that everying lives in ~/scoop. It’s well organized and somewhat portable (until you import the nonportable bucket)

For package management I’ve been really liking scoop.sh

Not everything in there is FOSS but scoop itself is! And you can install neovim, vscodium, bitwarden, Firefox, etc very easily.

Been listening for nearly a decade. They’re amazingly consistent!

Funkwhale kinda fits the bill. IIRC its federated.

This is fantastic. I have but one request: Allow us to block any word / string we want :)

I am so glad F-Droid exists. For the apps I need that aren’t there (Steam and Blizzard authenticator for 2FA) Aurora has been a godsend
