Would Matrix be fine? You can find my user name in my profile.

Is there any reason why you can't name the provider you have in mind? Perhaps in a DM? I'm just curious ;)

This was actually meant as a suggestion for you, since you mentioned that you want to put all of your stuff, including the seedbox, onto one single cloud server (hosted by a provider that allows this), so I recommended to just get a cheap dedicated server from an actual seedbox provider.

I just adb installed the SmartTube APK from my laptop over the network

Does F-Droid even have an Android TV client?

Since you said you use NewPipe on a TV, I assume it's some sort of Android TV? Why don't you just use SmartTube?

I agree, i2pd is so much better than the legacy Java client, it should really become the default client for I2P.

I will eventually move to a VPS provider who doesn't mind public torrents

There aren't many providers where this is the case, that's why I'm looking into getting a cheap dedicated server from an actual seedbox provider. Some have them, e.g. RapidSeedbox and seedhost.eu. RapidSeedbox dedicated servers are really expensive though.

What do you use now? AirVPN? Proton?

Ok well the ECO boxes don't really work as a seedbox, as they're highly limited in bandwidth. Even if I don't download anything, I still seed the torrent for others to download it. That's the main purpose of a seedbox I guess. Since your ECO box only really acts as a downloader anyway, wouldn't it be easier and cheaper to just get a VPN for downloading torrents, or a service like RealDebrid?

Currently on Iridium G10, I was on Gold G10 before, but ran out of storage. It's pretty expensive though, and I'm open for better suggestions. I think the next one I'm gonna try out is AppBox. Unfortunately no XMR, but they offer other crypto currencies such as BTC, ETH, LTC, BCH and others. seedboxes.cc also seems interesting. I'm also looking into getting a dedicated server from seedhost.eu for ~30 EUR/month.

What do you use now?

beaconDB is a drop-in replacement for MLS, which uses the same format request that's used by Mozilla's Ichnaea.

The source code is available on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/beacondb/beacondb

You can contribute to the project by using an app like NeoStumbler (GitHub) or Tower Collector (GitHub) to submit location reports. NeoStumbler does Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GSM, while Tower Collector can only do GSM cell towers. Both are FOSS and available on F-Droid.

It is also recommended by the GrapheneOS project: https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/112759509558471713

https://grapheneos.org/articles/positon-location-service

Just keep in mind that it's still in relatively early development, which is why it really needs contributions.

Hey guys,
I created this community to promote and talk about the UnifiedPush project. It aims to create a free and open source alternative to Google's proprietary Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). Quite a few apps have already adopted the UP protocol, but there are still many FOSS apps lacking support for it. I will post GitHub issue threads where UP integration in FOSS apps is being discussed. I will also post about new apps that gained UnifiedPush support, and other useful tools that help with using UP. If you want to stay up-to-date about ongoing developments in the Android FOSS ecosystem in regards to push notifications, consider subscribing to [email protected]

I also recommend following the official Mastodon account, joining the Matrix room and donating to support development!

This service is still in Alpha release but is already deployable and usable, and federates with other Fediverse servers.

However, there is no "main" instance you go to join. The intention really is that you host your own instance for yourself and a few friends and family. To this end, it is designed to be very lightweight and will happily run on a Raspberry Pi or even a $5/pm VPS.

This is taking a very different approach from say Mastodon which has one main instance everyone could join, but then it sits with the issue that everyone joins there, and it becomes a bit "centralised". GoToSocial has been designed as lightweight for self-hosting, and also has a Docker image installation, so it makes it really easy for (and encourages) most people to host their own instance.

It seems to also be focussed very much around privacy (defaults to unlisted posts) and permission controls (for example, you have an option to post to mutual-only where both people follow each other). Also, by hosting your own service you set the rules, and you are also your own admin. You can choose to turn off likes, replies, boosts, etc as well. Being your own admin also means you can easily adjust the post length as well.

It does conform to the Mastodon API so apparently some Mastodon clients will also work fine with it.
