@youronlyone @jikodesu I chalk these thinks up to incompetence. Sometimes you don’t even need to use a vpn. You can just change to a different dns server. But Skycable is a bit annoying at times.

My presence on traditional #socialmedia is basically 0. I open those apps less than once a month at this point. The #fediverse has really grown and doesn’t leave me feeling like I’m missing something.

@youronlyone Good luck getting BPI to register their app using their sms authentication.

It took me 2-3 days of trying before I could log into the app after opening my account.

How safe is signing in with mastodon? Is there a down side to this or should I just register a separate account?

@ChallengeApathy @libreoffice If you go down the rabbit hole of foss software you may find many foss alternatives are simply better than the commercial ones. I think it’s because they make improvements for the sake of improvements and will fix bugs instead of just working on ways to limit the software unless you pay.

Anyone in the #Philippines using #ProtonDrive ? I’m wondering what their upload and download speeds are like here.

@georgetakei I feel bad that Ty couldn’t be there. I’m sure it was a fun tonight for everyone to reconnect.
